Testimony in the Whitehouso Divorce
Suit Bears Bather
HARD ON THE POLICE INSPECTOR.
The Wife's Witnesses Give the riaintiffa
Bad Character.
ALL THE NEWS OP TUB COUNTY COURTS
The Wnitehouse divorce case was con
tinued before Judge Porter yesterday. The
usual large crowd was present nnd eeemed
delighted with the testimony, most of which
is unfit for publication.
Edward Toner was the first witness. He
was a policeman until about a year ago. Ho
knew Mrs. Whitehouse by sight He told a
Etory about seeing a colored man
drive Mrs. "Whitehouse up Fifth
avenue about ten years ago between
2 and 3 o'clock in the morning. On
the way out Fifth avenue the driver stopped
twice and got in the carriage for a few
minutes, then Mrs. Whitehouse got out and
walked home while the colored driver came
back toward the city.
Theodore Hapenney said that abont a
year ago, when he was coming down Fifth
avenue, he saw Mrs. Whitehouse sitting on
some steps near Gist street. She had a
bottle of whisky and gave him a drink.
There were lour other men along. Mrs.
Whitehouse said she was going to the Penn
incline to a dance, and the men accompanied
her up on top of Moore's Hill and into ft
brickyard;
Edward Coffey and John Carlin had seen
Mrs. Whitehouse on the hill, but did not
know who she was. Henry Xikirk had
known Mrs. Whitehouse for 12 years. Be
Eaw her on Second avenue one night. She
wanted to go into a saloon and he left her.
Testimony Reflecting: Upon tbo Inspector.
At the afternoon session the tables were
turned and the plaintiff got the benefit of
the testimony. Mrs. Whitehouse seemed
in bright spirits and would shoot a sarcastic
glanco across the tabic at hei husband every
time she thought the testimony was In any
way damaging, which was pietty often.
Mr. McGlrr opened the case for tho defense
lie said Whitehouse was himself responsible
for nil tho trouble In the family. He would
prove that Whitehouse kept his wife In a dis
reputable locality ever since thoy were mar
ried. He compelled her to go to a notorious
resort kept by his brother, and under this
influence she may have become addicted to
drinking. Mr. McGirr also said it would be
proven tnat Whitehouse had often boasted
to his wife and her mother of the number of
disreputable women he vmted. Farther
than that he beat and kicked her and at
tempted to shoot her.
jars. Alice n eems, a colored woman living
at 23 Pasture street, but formerly employed
by Maud Raymond at 25 Second avenue, was
tho first witness. She worked for Miss Ray
mond tor the space of a month about two
3 ears ago, during which time Whitehouse
visited the house twice a week.
Mrs. Wliltehonso's Mother Testifies.
Mrs. Wells, the mother of Mrs. White
house, was next called, and she was on tho
stand when court adjourned. Her testi
mony was rather of a criminating charac
ter as applied to tho plaintiff, but be took it
w ithout making any demonstrations. Mrs.
Wells first told how tho girl Maud Malono
was hi ought to tho Whitehouse home by the
plaintiff much against the protests of the
witness. In regard to Miss Malone's testi
mony Mrs. Wells denied all of it relating to
the intemperate habits and unsavory char
acter of Mrs. Whitehouse. fehe said Miss
Malonehad given birth to two children while
she was with tho family. One died, and
Henry Whitehouso had it buried. Tho other
is 7 years .of age and still lives with the
w itness. Mrs. Wells said she had seen tho
