The Very Finest $1.00 and $1.25 Thread Silk Stockings Will Be Found in This Sale HINT OF DEFENSE IS GIVEN WQfiNUinitl Cross-Examination Goes Into Ac quaintance With Gore's Political . Enemies, With View to Establishing Motive. OKLAHOMA CITT, Okla., Feb. 12. Mrs. Minnie E. Bond told a jury in the District Court today of the indignities which, she declared, she suffered at the hands of United States Senator Gore, of Oklahoma. She described the at tack, which she alleged occurred in a Washington hotel March 24, last, the basis for the suit on trial. In which Mrs. Bond asks $50,000 damages. Three other witnesses. Dr. J. H. Earp, Klrby Fltzpatrlck and T. E. Robertson, also testified In corroboration of Mrs. Bond. Mrs. Bond was on the witness stand the greater part of the day. A grilling cross-examination failed to shake her testimony. Meeting at Motel Described. According to Mrs. Bond, she met the Senator In Oklahoma several years ago and went to Washington last Spring, when her husband, Julian Bond, was a candidate for appointment as in ternal revenue collector here. She vis ited Senator Gore In the interest of her husband's candidacy at his office, she said, where on two occasions, she charged, he seized her. Because of the number of men about the Senator's office she refused, she said, to make further visits there and by arrangement he met her at her hotel, March 24, when, she alleges, he caught hold of her and threw her across a bed. In her efforts to free herself her eyeglasses were broken, her face scratched and her hand lacerated, she said. In cross-examination she said her health had been impaired as the result f the alleged attack. Mrs. Bond was questioned by at torneys for Senator Gore as to her acquaintance with politicians in Okla homa, laying the foundation, it Is be lieved, for introduction of testimony in support of their contention that the suit is the result of a political con spiracy. Senator Gore is a candidate for renomination at Oklahoma primaries in August. Women Sit Facing Each Other. Mrs. Bond, a mild-mannered woman and rather frail in appearance, main tained her composure throughout the examination. Mrs. Gore, wife of the defendant. Bat directly opposite Mrs. Bond throughout the day and fre quently the gaze of the two women met On cross-examination, the witness admitted that she had been married to her former husband, a man named Farrer, two times, the second time be cause he had not been divorced when they first married In June, 1903. She said they had a. child born In Decem ber, 1903, but she did not know what had become of it. The defense offered to introduce a copy of her petition for divorce from Farrar, but Judge Clark ruled it out. Offlce-Seekera Are Disappointed. All the witnesses heard today in support of Mrs. Bond admitted that they failed to accomplish the purpose of their visit to Washington last Spring appointment to Federal positions. Earp said he had a promise of one of three positions: Fitzpatrlck sought ap pointment as attorney-general in the Department of the Interior, and Rob ertson said he was there expecting to obtain a place in the Interior Depart ment in the event Robert A. Rogers was named as Secretary. Robertson also asserted that James R. Jacobs, in whose apartment at the hotel the at tack on Mrs. Bond is alleged to have been made, was seeking appointment as United States Marshal for the East ern District of Oklahoma. Jacobs also was not appointed. He will be called 3 a witness for the plaintiff tomor row. Earp asserted he acted as an emis sary for Senator Gore in an efofrt to arrange matters with Mrs. Bond and have her leave Washington. He visited the Oklahoma Senator the morning afler the alleged incident to ask con cerning his candidacy for a Federal position. "Doc, they set a trap for me and I walked Into it." Earp testified Gore saia to mm. "I want you to see Mrs. Bond and get her out of town." Woman Does Not Leave. He testified Gore told him tr nenm. Ise Mrs. Bond anything, but not to use nis name. ji;arp Kaid he advised Mrs. fond to leave Washington, but that she did not do so. Robertson and Fitz patrlck, as eyewitnesses to the alleged occurrence, corroborated. In substance, Mrs. Bond's narrative. Fitzpatrlck said Jacobs' apartment was selected for the conference between Senator Gore and Mrs. Bond because the hotel parlors were crowded and Mrs. Bond s room had not been put In order. Attracted by the noise, he said, he went Into the hall and had a view of the Interior of the room through a partly open door. On cross - examination, Fitzpatrlck admitted that he told a friend that if Robertson were appointed a deputy united States attorney the matter would end. He also said he had re ported the matter to the Attorney-Gen eral of the United States. Robertson's testimony was much the same as Fitzpatrick's. It was true, he said, that he had expressed himself as aggrieved and had "cussed out" Gore. but denied having said to a Washing ton hotel man that he would "get" the Senator or that if Gore would pay $25 000 to "hush the matter up" he would be able to repay a small debt he owed a man here.
