belonging to the peasantry, and it
will be easy to imagine the state of
the future relations between the vic

"The Riga peace is not a peace of
compromise, as Poland's official rep
resentatives claim, but a. peace of od

ILL HEALTH IS GIVEN" AS REA
SOX FOR RETIREMENT.

ALso Ended Loss of Colleague
Blow to Lloyd. George.
LONDON. March 17. (By the As
sociated Press.) Andrew Bonar Law.
lord of the privy seal, today resigned

his physicians that if he continued
he would run the danger of a com
plete breakdown. During the read
ing of the letter Lloyd George re
peatedly choked back sobs.
Bonar Law had been absent from
the house of commons the whole of
this week, but he was reported to
be improving in .health, and his res
ignation of the leadership of the
house came as a complete surprise.
Lloyd George was only able to say
he had hoped a short period of rest
might enable his friend to return to
his duties, but that medical opinion
wnich he consulted was that Bonar
Law would need a much more pro
longed rest.
Ex-Premier Asquith, liberal, and
John Robert Clynes, laborite. ex
pressed on behalf of their parties
regret at the retirement.
The letter of Bonar Law expressed
regret that he was unable to con
tinue his work.

prominent in British politics, and
since 1916 has been the government
leader in the house of commons. He
became lord of the privy seal In Jan
uary, 1919. He was first elected to
the house of commons in 1900.

FIVE-DAY RECESS TAKEN
Millionaire Winces' Wlfen Court
Awards $7000 to Counsel for
Defense In Divorce.
NEW YORK, March 17. (Special.)
Golden hairpins- were fastened Into
the Edgar T. Wallace-Mrs. Stokes
chapter of the divorce trial of W. E.
D. Stokes today. . -
With them the millionaire's wit
nesses, before the proceeding was de
clared adjourned for five days,
brought forth hair . brushes, etc.
with wisps of red hair, a suitcase,
and some more tea cups.
And before the defense had
whipped Into action, Mrs.. Stokes'
counsel obtained from one of Mr.
Stokes' witnesses a story that Mrs.
Genevieve La Croix de Anquinas, the
millionaires prize witness, was the
hostess at gay drinking parties, so
that at the adjournment both sides
reemed content.
Mrs. Stokes was In gracious humor,
smiling frequently and chatting with
her counsel. Even the angry rebuke
of a witness on the stand "don't you
make those remarks about me. Mrs.
Stokes. Tou know I'm telling the
truth, failed to ruffle her compos
ure. Servant Testimony Heard.
Mr. Stokes, too, appeared self-satisfied
until Supreme Court Justice
Finch awarded $7000 to Mr. Littleton
for the defence in the Wallace phase
of the proceeding. Then Mr. Stokes
winced perceptibly, opened his mouth
in silent protest, and subsided.
Servant testimony, which formed a
goodly part of the millionaire's testi
mony brought the hairpins, the brush
and the suitcase into the trial. Miss
Lillian" Payne, ex-maid of Mrs. de An
quinas, swore that she had seen Mrs.
Stokes enter the Wallace apartment
at 13 East Thirty-fifth street, carry
ing a suitcase.
After Mrs. stokes departure, the
maid testified, she found golden hair
pins in the bed, red hair twisted in
the hair brush and other evidences of
femininity. Pressed, she insisted that
Mrs. Stokes was the visitor, although
she said she knew her as Miss Nooig.
Trained Knrn Witness.
To support their contention that
Mrs. Stokes visited the Wallace apart
ment 10 days after she gave birth to
her daughter Muriel, counsel for Mr.
Stokes produced Miss Margaret Con
way, a trained nurse, who attended
Mrs. Stokes. She testified Mrs. Stoke3
left her bed 10 days after her daugh
ter was born.
From Mrs. Maggie Thornton, wife
of Joe Thornton, the summoner of
taxicabs, who testified Wednesday,
Mr. Littleton obtained a piquant de
scription of the parties at which Mrs.
de Anquinas was hostess.
Mrs. Thornton testified she ran
known Mrs. de Anquinas as Jean
GravtST When Mrs. de Anquinas wa'f
on the stand., she could not remem
berJrtiether she had used this name.
With Mrs. de Anquinas, said the wit
ness, was a Gladys Dale, and a red
haired girl named "Nanette."
Rumor of Doable Revived.
Mention of a red-haired girl re
vived the rumor of a double of Mrs
Stokes, but Martin W. Littleton, Mrs.
Stokes' counsel, denied he would pro
duce such a woman. He said Mr. Wal
lace, on his way here from California,
would deny the stories of witnesses.
Mrs. Thornton told of a man she
knew as "Mr. Graves" who called at
the de Anquinas apartment. She told
of finding gin, beer and whisky bot
tles in the apartment and described
those who, so she said, participated
in the gatherings.
Just as the session was about to
close Mrs. Mary McNulty. a waitress
in a tearoom near the Wallace, ar
rived with an infant In her arms. She
testified that Mrs. Stokes was a fre
quent visitor at the tearoom and in
the Wallace apartment. Mrs. Stokes
turned her smiling blub eyes at her
and whispered to the counsel.
FIve-Day Recess Asked.
Tm not going to have Mrs. Stokes
sitting there 'making remarks about
me," the witness protested. "Don't
you do that, Mrs. Stokes. I'm only
telling the truth."
At the close of the session Mr. Lit
tleton asked for the five days' ad
journment. He said expenses for the
Wailaco Investigation would total
$10,000. Mr. Stokes looked pained at
this announcement, and his face did
not relax when Justice Finch cut the
sum to $7000.
Mr. Littleton said that he -would
concentrate his guns on Mrs. de
Anquinas and Mrs. Zenas Matteossian,
reciters of two tales of intimacies in
the Wallace apartment. Mr. Little
ton said the suits for damages
brought by Mrs. de Anquinas would
show contradiction of her testimony
on several important points.
CLARA HAMON ACQUITTED
(Continued From First Page.)

was assailed for having sent the attorney-general
here to prosecute" the
case, asserting his action was unique.
Political Charge Denied.
Mr. Freeling denied defense allega
tions of politics and tbat t Ve Hamon
interests had brought undue pressure
on Governor Robertson.

expense of her trial.
Will Benefits Expected.
Mr. Ketch testified over objection of
J. L. Hodge, assistant county attor
ney, who arose In court as Mr. Ketch
was called to the witness stand, and
said an information charging him with
being an accessory after the fact In
connection with the death, of Mr.
Hamon had been drawn. It was un
derstood that the fact that he testified
gave Mr. Ketch immunity.
Tonight it was said that the Infor
mation still was in the county at
torney's desk.
During her trial it was brought out
that Clara Hamon had made a state
ment that she believed Mr. Hamon
had left a will In which provision was
