Louis w. Hoffman Says She
Has Remarked, But Con-
ceaIed Fact

Answering the complaint of Helen
b. Hoffman that he had failed to
obey the order of the court with
regard to alimony payments, Louis
". Hoffman today told the District
Supreme Court that it was not
meant by the order of the court
that he should contribute toward
plaintiffs support longer than she
remained single.
He alleges that the plaintiff de-
ceived him in that she married one
William z. Peaslee, July l.. 1924,
and yet required defendant to con-
tribute to her support until Deem
Der 8, 1924, when he was informed
that she was married. Hoffman
claims that the plaintiff "deliber-
ately and purposely concealed the
fact of her marriage from
this defendant and that in carrying
out her desires to deceive defendant
she went to the extreme of endors-
ing checks and signing letters in
the name of Helen B. Hoffman,
when in fact her real and actual
name was Helen B. Peaslee."
Hoffman denies that he IS in
default in the sum of $1476S, as
claimed by the plaintiff, and that
she is dependent upon him for sup
port. asserting that her husband
earns more money than he does.
Hoffman asks that he be no longer
required to pay any aliTnony to his
wife and that he be awarded the
custory of their children for six
months in the year. Attorney
Campbell Howard appears for Hoff-
nan.

BUTTER PRICES STEADY.
Week Develops No Definite Trend
in Markets

CHICAGO, November CP.-Prices
in the butter markets during most of
the week were steady and free from
any sensational changes. Price
changes, however. were confined to
minor fluctuations, which occurred
principally at Chicago, and did not
indicate a definite trend either to
higher or lower level until late In the
week. when conditions pointed toward
lower prices.
Trading on fresh butter was not up
TO expectations during the week, as
large buyers were holding off the mar
ket and were operating close to imme-
date needs or using their own storage
butter.
Accommodations of. fine butter were
not great, but by Friday dealers
found themselves carrying what they
considered too much butter on a nerv-
Gus and unsettled market. In an eff
fort to reduce stocks, prices were
slightly reduced, and an easier tone
developed.
Centralized cars on all markets were
liberal and were selling slow at all
times. Many Of these cars were high
cost. and for that reason a sizable
number of centralized cars were re-
ported as going into cold storage.

NEW YORK. November In the
foreign exchanges there was a mod
crate rally in French francs at the
opening. Doubtless the published in
timation from Washington that the
administration would not object to
American bankers extending a new
credit to France for the purpose of
supporting the franc was influential
in this respect. It was not clear
whether the policy of prohibiting
loans to countries which have not
funded their war debts to the United
States had been altered, or whether
this was simply an exception allowed
because of the crisis in French
finances. Italian lire were higher to-
day, and there was an advance in
