Parents of Indian Guide De
fend Son Accused By Mr.
Stillman of Impropriety
Evidence Is Conflicting
Cross Examination Severe.
MONTREAL, April 12. (By the
Associated Press.) Severe cross ex
amination awaited the full blooded
Indian, Louis Beavais. father Jot the
guide, Fred Beauvais. when trial of
the Stillman divorce case was resum
! ed here today. -
Yesterday the Indian parents de
fended their son and Mrs. Anne C
Stillman against the charges ct mis
conduct made by James A. Stillman
New York banker, who ulleged in su
lug for divorce, that they had misbe
haved in the Quebec woods and that
Fred I'eauvais was the father of lit
tie Guy Stillman.
By their testimony Fred'a father
and mother sought to show it would
have been Impossible for workmen at
tbe btlllman summer camp near
Grande Anse, Quebec, to have drawn
aside roller curtains and peeped at
Beauvais and Mrs. Stillman in the
bedroom of the lodge. They said
there were no roller curtains on the
windows at that time, the summer ot
19 IS.
Mrs. Beauvais, however, was de
clared to have been uncertain on this
point.
There were other points of differ
ence between their statements and
those op their neighbors who more
than a year ago testified against Mrs,
Stillman.
The neighbors swore that Mrs. Still
man and Beauvais occupied adjoin
ing rooms In the lodge and that the
Stillman children. Anne, Alexander
and James, slept in tents outside
Mr. and Mrs. Beauvais said there
were no tents on the place at that
time. The children and Mrs. Still
man occupied rooms on the ground
floor, they said, and Beauvais slept
upstairs. .
Mrs. Beauvais. after identifying
Fred's handwriting ou three insig
nificant notes, however, was said to
have also identified a letter In which
Fred told of the tents being on the
place.

Counsel for Mrs. Stillman called
several rrench Canadians toduy to
batter down evidence alleged to show-
that Mrs. Stillman misconducted her
self at their place along the St. Mau
rice valley. Others were summoned
to support charges that attempts to
bribe wltnosses to tell ot such impro
prieties were made by J. Albert La

President Harding Throws the
- First Ball in Opening Game
at Washington With Senate
and House Members Look

Out in the East.
WASHINGTON, April 12. Presi
dent Harding was on the program to
throw the first ball today and start
the Nationals and the Yankees ou
their way in the 182Z championship
race. Official busineam in Washing
ton was expected to give way largely
to the event, with members of the
senate, and house, with high officlala
of the army and navy and others
planning to attend. The weather
man had promised Ideal baseball
weather.
The Ditching selections were Mog
ridge for Washington and Hoyt, the.
i youthful star, for the opposition.
I The Chicago Americans startod the
season here with the St. Louis Krowna
tnduv. The Urban boys, Faber, for
the White Box and Hhocker for the
Browns, have been picked as tho op
posing pitchers.
K. M. Lundls. baseDan commis
sioner, will watch the season get
under way.
The other American league game
of the western end will be played at
Cleveland with Detroit as the visiting
team. The Tigers probably will start
without their manager, Ty. Cobb, who
suffered an injury in an exhibition
game. He expects to get back in con
dition before playing again.
The National league schedule for
this end of the circuit brings to
gether Chicago and Cincinnati at, the
titter's home r groffnd " and Ptttsourg
and St. Louis in the Cardinals' park.
New Yorkers Out.
NEW YORK. April 12. Worm
weather, but overcast skies, ushered
in the baseba'.l season of 1922 hore
today. Wenther forecasts, however.
brought cheering assurance to the
fans of Manhattan and Brooklyn that
the elements would not mar tho big
day of the year for those who went to
the Polo Grounds to see the national
game.
Douglas or Nehf was the pitcher
considered as most likely to face tho
barrier for the Giants, while "Dutch"
Ructher. whose work has shown re
markable form, was looked on as the
hurier for Brooklyn.
New Y'ork was without the service
of Frisch, second baseman, who was
sent home from the south with an In
fection, but his place was taken by
Rawlings. w ho played a star game In
the world's series last fall.
Brooklyn presented her strongest
lineup.
The Yankees were in Washington
to open the American league reason.
Babe Ruth went to the capital city
with his team mates, but had no hope
of getting Into the game as the sen
tence of suspension passed on him by
Judge Landis was holding firm.
Boston and Philadelphia also wera
ready for today's opening. Tho Na
tional league season was to be initiat
ed in the Quaker city by the Braves,,
while Connie Mack's Athletics . were
in BoHton to meet the lied Sox.
Neither manager of tha n.-ajor
league pennant winners of 192 1 was
predicting this year that his tennt will
land in front, but each foresoea close
hardfought races.
Manager McGraw, pilot of the
Clin tits, world's champions, bclioved
his combination was a better one than,
last year's aggregation, but he said
the "breaks" would determine tho
outcome.
"I never predict where my 'cam Is
going to finish at tho end of the
season." said McGraw. ''I'm too long
in tho business for that. But we'll bo
right in the fight from the start and
the fans can look forward to a lot of
good baseball at tho Polo r rounds
this season. I figure that tho same
four teams in the lead last reason.
New Y'ork, St. Louis, Pittsburg and
Boston, have a chance for the pen
nant and thut the race will be Just as
interesting us a year ago." '
