Fur ther than this I am powerless to right the wrongs you have suf fered. Be patient and silent a little longer, when all will be well, and believe me, yours truly, T. C. PLATT. New York. NEW YORK, May 20.—Senator Piatt, on being shown the signa ture to the “Dearest Mae" letter, admitting she was his legal wife, declared that it was hie writing. NEW YORK, May 20.—Senator Platt, who has fought a long and bit* ter light to keep the •divorce" case begun ugaln-st him by Mae C. Wood, out of court, and who, the woman de clares. has hounded her with detec tives. was forced to take the stand in his ow'n defense, today. Senator Platt reached the court house a few minutes after 11 o’clock. He was driven up In a carriage, ac companied by two male attendants, nml tottered leebly into the uuildlug. with u man supporting him on either side. He was helped Into the court room and taken directly to the witness stand where he was helped into the chair. It was the purpose of toe law yers to rake his testimony at once. In order that he might he excused and allowed to leave. Phi It's General Denial. With as much emphasis as nis fee ble voice would uikiw. Senator Plu't doolud 4iiWU?.e .had ever married, *?%r proposed to, or eVer wanted to rahrry Mae C. Wood, the woman who Is su ing him for divorce in the supreme court. The aged senator declared he had never written the endearing love letters copies of which were in trodued during the testimony of plain tiff. He denied that he had ever given her a ting, that he hud ever seen her «t the Oriental hotel, that he had ever introduced her to a clergyman or any one In the guise of a clergyman at the Fiftb-ave. hotel, and that he had ever called her his “bride-to-be," and other affectionate phrases. Never Sat in His Lap. Senator Platt denounced us a for gery the inscription, "To my darling bride" over his signature on the back of a photograph. Miss Wood testified that he wrote while she sat In his lap and guided his hand. This made the senator angry, apparently, and when his lawyer asked him about It he snapped out: "It is a forgery, the woman never i sat in my lap." The court’s refusal to entertain a motion that the case be dismissed when the little, determined woman, who has been on hiß trail for five years, left the stand, forced the aged senator's counsel to proceed with the defense. This ruling was a surprise to the defendant’s lawyer. John B. Stancbfleld, who had picked big holes in the plaintiff’s testimony and had forced many damaging admissions from her during a long cross-examina tion. A remarkable letter written by Miss Wood to Abraham Hummel, In which she declared that Senator Platt had threatened to “destroy" her If she pub lished what she knew about him to Mrs. Janeway, his wife, was read dur ing the cross-examination. “1 don’t know how he Is to destroy me; whether I am to be murdered or put out of the way In some other man- j ner." she wrote. An Important phase of the day’s proceedings was the introduction of a typewritten letter bearing the acknowl edged signature of Senator Platt in which he declared his willingness to admit that Mae C. Wood was hla legal wire. H was dated" after his marriage to Mrs. Lillian Janeway. Miss Wood admitted having type written this letter and having sent it to Senator Platt’s apartments In the Arlington at Washington for signa ture. She swore she stood on the threshold of tho door and raw him sign IL Namii Government Officials. High government officials at Wash ington are alleged to have conspired to obtain possession of love letters said to have been written by Senator Platt to Miss Wood, In a signed state ment introduced as evidence during yesterday's hearing in Miss Wood's suit for “divorce" against the senator. The statement, which was intro duced after the court had denied a motion by counsel for Senator Platt to dismiss the complaint, bears what purports to the signature of J. Martin Miller, "k former newspaper msn and recently American consul at Kbtirns. France, and Miss Wood said that while she did not see the signa ture affixed, she was assured by Miller tb«t It was genuine. The statement was prepared by Miller at her request, gha testified.

Mrs. Calhoun says her method of determining sex Is not by medicine or surgery. It Is all based on a law of nature which hitherto, she says, has escaped the researches of scientists. In Mrs. Calhoun s process, therefore, there will first be the law and to go with it simple rules necessary to strict observation of the law. She learned her entire secret from nature in the first instance. She had a ranch in California and In expert menting with different varieties of fruit and vegetables came to her first knowledge of the fundamental law which Is her discovery. Carrying her discovery into the pas ture she made experiments with hm cattle and learned that she was able to fix the sex of their produce. Horses, cattle, sheep, swine, all responded. Experimented on Self. Her next experiments were on her self and her four sons, she declares, testify to success In that Instance. 1 Mrs. Calhoun maintains that the• greatest good from her discovery will accrue to members of her own sex. There are too many women on the earth now. she says. She Is now at work ou a book in which she says she will give her se cret to ttye world, but the book is not to be published until after the birth of the chlldreu whose sex she is now endeavoring to control. The book, j however, will be published within the 1 month. ANOTHER G. 0. P. CLUBOpiZED THE YOUNG MEN’S REPUBLICAN LEAGUE HAS PROMINENT MEN AS MEMBERS. And still another Republican club.
