LOS ANGELES, February 21-John
spreckels, Sd, millionaire sportsman
and the blond minister's daughter he
married pondered judges advice to
forgive and make up today after the
two had described home life of pistol
waving, name calling and book throw
ing.
Robert NJ Clarke, judge pro tenn, took
the issues IN Mrs. Spreckels' divorce
suit under advisement and suggested
reconciliation yesterday after the sugar
fortune heir had dropped his counter
suit without explanation.
Spreckels, who first met his wife
on blind date" denied Mrs.
Spreckels charges that he pointed
loaded pistols at her and associated
with other women.
He blamed her desire for a movie
career as contributing most to their
domestic unhappiness.
Louisa Coleman, Mrs. Spreckels'
maid, testified that the millionaire
"came home dozens of times at 2 or
3 o'clock in the morning and called
his wife profane names"
Asked on cross-examination if Mrs.
Spreckels didn't swear at her husband,
the maid replied:
We'll, what of it? He did, too"
When the court inquired if it was
a $3.50" proposition, the maid an
swered
"Doggone tootin-he called her
names too nasty for a lady to say"

mortgages bear .. per cent interest

F. c. may make tidy profit out of
their purchase.
In this event, it was said, private

activities over to private interests.

in Liverpool induced selling at the
opening and prices declined under a
burst of liquidation. The tone was
weak through most of the day.
Interest in the market was ex-
tremely light after the opening min
utes. Commission house pressure
had a tendency to keep all upturns

Light rains were reported in the
northwest spring wheat territory,
but most traders believed they were
too light to hinder harvest opera
tions.
Corn prices eased under scattered
liquidation in response to forecasts
for precipitation over sections of the
central grain states.
Oats and rye eased in sympathy
with wheat
