DEIS EVERYTHING Missing Exporter Keturns r roin Honeymoon With Bride Refuses to Make Statement Regarding. SeiP National Marriage. '-My Answer to All Calum nies rttered Against 3Ie Will Be Made Through the Courts at Proper Time and Place," He Declares. T. M Stevens, the missing head of tha Portland Rice Milling company, and his, bride, Lillian Stevi ns. nee Monk, re turned to the Madison Park apartments last night, and Mr. Sievens was at hie office In the Commonwealth bulldlntC this morning. Excepting to enter a gen eral denial of the charges bf bigamy and cruelty mode against him, and to characterize the charges as calumnies, Mr. 8tevns said he" did not wish tr) make any statement to the newspapers. At least until the return of Judge O'Day tomorrow afternoon, no criminal charges" will be brought against Mr. Htevens. Judge ())ay. who Is Mr. Stevens' attorney, is at Seaside. W-hat Mr. Stevens wanted said is tliis: 'Mr answer to all the calumnies that have been uttered against me will ha made through the courts, at the proper time and the proper place." The return of the Stevens this morn ing probably saved their apartment from a raid by the sheriff. Disgusted at securing only J204 in their attempts to levy (oi his bank balances and sal ary, the deputies had planned to go to the Stevens flat In the Madison Park apartments this morning and see If they couldn't find the bride, and groom In hiding there. Hearing of this plan the manager of the apartments hurried around to a notary yesterdav afternoon and took affidavit that the Steveni were not In their flat, and had not been seen In the apartment house since the trouble began. To all itiepilrers the manager flaunted this affidavit as proof that his assertions of the past week had been correct. Both Mr. and Mrs. Stevens appearei! to be cheerful and happy this morning In tho face of tho sensation their mar riage has caused. Mrs. Stevens said that her lawyers would speak for her later on and referred everybody to her husband. Mr Stevens was also In good spirits. He was dressed In a new blue suit, had just nui a snave and wore a big dia mond pin in his white tie. Ho looked considerably better than he did 10 days ago. prior to the announcement of his marriage to Lillian Monk. I don't wis to flcht mv case out In the newspapers." said Mr. Stevens. "The other side has done enough of that. Alt I wish to say Is that my answer to all these calumnies will be made through the courts, and at the proper time and place." He said he did not wish to discuss his future plans, nor where he and Mrs. Stevens had been, nor where thev in tended living "T want the matter dropped.' said he. "until it comes up in the courts " Prior to her mirrlag to Mr. SteyenS Miss Monk lived with Mr and Mrs. Joseph Taylor at TL'ii Kearney street, and she whs at this house until the time of the marriage Mrs Tavlor stated this morrlng that If the Stevens wer married at her home ,IP didn't know It fnd said that she had been away and so knew nothing concerning the move- . mer ts of Mr and Mrs S'evens except ing that t-.ev had returned to Portland Inst night from ihei- honeymoon.
