A Btflircer lng blow to tho cauws of Mrs. James A. Stlllman nnd her falr-hnlrcd bftby Guy wan given yesterday by Dnnlcl J. Olea son, referee In the dtvorco milt. Within forty-eight hours of tho time for open ing the defenao here "Wednesday, Judge Gleawn rendered decisions which may upset all the pliuis of tho lawyers for tho defense, Nine points at loaue were before Judge Gleanon. In wven ho decided the contentions of Colonel William U. Rand, chief counsel for James A. Stlllman, should be upheld. In rendering these decisions It was necessary for Judge Glcason to deter mine to what extent Mr. Stlllman has proved non-access to his wife during the period In which she. Is charged with Infidelity resulting in tho birth of Guy. The teit of his decisions shows that up to the present he believe the plaintiff has established his contention of non acccsa njid, furthermore, of infidelity on the part of Mrs. Stlllman. This may be entirely upset, however. It is pointed out, when the testimony of the defense is presented. Only the case of the plaintiff has been Introduced up to this time, and Judge Oleason's ruling that Mr. Stlllman has estab lished his case is made only In relation to the testimony presented to date. Rsferoo Reverses Himself In one instance the referee reversed his previous decision by admitting in evidence the noted "honey dearest" let ter, said to have been written to Mrs. Stlllman by the Indian guide, Fred Beauvais, co-respondent in tho divorce action. Judge Gleason had ruled tblH letter out. This letter, known as Ex hibit B, is said to be the most damag ing of the alleged Beauvais letters. Exhibit C. or the "rolled oats and bacon" letter, which had been admit ted until proved, is definitely placed in the record by another decision given by the referee. These letters are admit ted In so far as they pertain to the divorce and legitimacy actionp, but any direct or indirect declarations in them by Beauvais or Mrs. Stlllman as to the parentage of the child are excluded. The letters, in other words, may be used to snow the inclination for in fidelity on the part of the guide and the banker's wife, but not as direct proof of Guy's parentage. No "Stick of Furniture" Equally important in its bearing on the caso is the referc'tt decision to ad mit tho testimony of Mrs. Percy Rocke feller, sister of Mr. SUllman. as to a telephone conversation she had with Mrs. Stillman in February, 191S. In this telephone call Mrs. Stlllman is said to have declared Mr. Stillmnn "never came near her nor would have anything to do with her." It was at this time she is said to have made plain that ahe would not be "a stick of fur niture" for any man. This testimony is admitted in the divorce i6sue by the referee, but not in relations to the legitimacy action. The only point in which Mrs. Still -man and her friends can tnko com fort is In the refusal of thp referee 'to admit -the testimony of Dr. Hugh L. Russell, Buffalo osteopath, as to the conversation in which Mrs. Stlll man is said to have admitted that Boanvals Is the father of Ouy. This and the decision upholding tho exclu sion of all direct declarations by Mrs. Stillman and Beauvais as to the par entage of Guy on the legitimacy Is.ue are the only victories for the de fendant in the decisions.

Ilattle of CoU Still Hoglng The "battle of tho cots" Is Rtlll being fonght at division headquarters, it being contended by Federal officials that they are not responsible for tho mix-up last Saturday, as cota are not a Federal Is sue. This is tho flrnt time such a ruling has been made, nnd camp officials here are confidont it will not stand, for the reason that cots are a part of the enmp equipment. The next move in again now up to the Federal officials, as the State officials have demanded nn answer to the question when cots ceased to be a part of the camp equipment. Meanwhile all the men have snug' quar ters and plenty of good provisions. More than 100 men from the 110th were on the rifle range this morning for tho purpose of being trained as range instructors when tho various units of the regiment malto their appearance in tronf or the targets.

But because of the ease with which adjustments can be made and replacements installed, the Hudson Super-Six has virtually a perpetual life. No Super-Six seems ever to have become wholly disabled through wear. In fact, in vari ous parts of the country men make a business of buying up old Hudsons and restoring them. You would be surprised at the slight cost neces sary to put a Super-Six in good condition. No special skill not found in the average repair shop is required. And the fact that Hudson body lines have been so consistently expressive of good taste, makes them acceptable when more extreme types have become "Old Fashioned." Because of these facts you will find Hudsons ' six years old that are nearing a hundred thou sand miles of service. '!' .'I nnDSON' l-ren. Toorlnir 4-rjeii. (.pMd.tyr 2'Pmb. Cabriolet 7-roee.
