Offer Liberal Settlement, WnJch la Rejerted Bemuse C'oant Want a All Uebta Paid by Wife. PARIS. 'Nov. 7. The court room In the police of justice occupied by the tribunal of first instance of the 8"lm Judge Ditto presiding, a again in loil again today when the hearing t divorce suit brought by the Ciiuin.., ile Casteltane, formerly Anna UouM, iikhIiihi her husband, Count Hon I, waa resumed. . . Marti Cruppi of eounael for the countesa, reviewed the points he had covered last week, referring to the recklesa fashion In which the court had spent millions of the countegiT money while allowing hnr only a niggardly few hundred fr.incs monthly for pin money, on one occasion brutally refusing to Increase her allowance to $200 a month. Counsel declared that tho proofs of the count's Infidelity and cruelty contained In the thirteen allegations made Inst week were sufficient to Justify a divorce1- without summoning witnesses. As evidence of the countess' generosity, counsel cited the agreement of 1S9S by which the count's father and mother were guaranteed ..a. life Income of $6,600 and . $1,000 respectively, and again laid special strep on the countess' Intention not to abandon the country of her adop tion, but tf rear her boy as Frenchmen. Maltre Cruppi then plunged directly Into the courts maneuvers since the divorce proceedings' were Instituted, to reconquer bis wife's affection. . Bbnl rieada with Wife.. After the failure of tha attempting at arranging a conciliation February 1, when the countess was granted the temporary custody of her children. Count Bonl began Systematic campaign, writing to the Sttateaa letters filled with avoaala of sincere repentance, aupt llcatlona for par don, passionate worda and professions of undying love. ' The count's letters dn scrlbed his life, as being wrecked and said he was unable to live without her. "Tou have been my llfe.f ha declares" in ons of his letters; "Yo.ur ahannce will b my death. Take me back once more. I will live only for you. Let me embrace you and once more feel you In my arms," and so on. On February 25, the countesa sent a cold rejoinder .Informing the count that she had suffered too much and had lost all affection for him and all confidence In his honor and veracity, concluding with the statement that she found him "dis gusting." The count's tone changed. The next day he sent to the counteas a letter in which he upbraided her for being a "mad woman actuated by hate vengefulness" and Haying that their children would som.ii day reproach her for her "spltefulneBa." But the count soon resumed writing lova letters to the countess, begging . to t allowed to see her and predicting that he would soon die, , Letters and Card. The letters continued until the middle of September, when the count wrote that ha would not long survive, pleading to see the countesa, and asking her at least,' to grant hlra a supreme favor, saying;,, "If I am in danger, come.' - Do not let ma die alone' like an abandoned dog." It was then, said Maltre Cruppi, that the countess, worn out with her husband's In sincerity, wrote, him three postal cards, one of which read: "My response Is the refusal of a respec table women to see such a libertine." The wording of the other postal cards was equnlly emphatic, ons reading: "Do nt :Mnk I am so stupfcl Mme. X.' Imaisii. ." . ' - The lHi poatai Card was sigTi9 "with my profound scorn." ' Continuing, Maitre Cruppi decared that the count's paternal rights Would be" amply protected. The rlillrtren will remain, "in France and their 'father- would havs oppor tunities to see them and share In the di rection of their education. Offers to Settle. Counsel described the countess' generous offer to settle $30,0o0 a year, on the count for life, which the latter rejected because It did not Include a full settlement of his outstanding debts. lie was offered $30,000 and 0O.OMi to pay his personal debts, but wanted IbO.OuO and the settlement of all his debts. In making the offer, Maltre Cruppi said, the countess gave way to sn Impulse to assume a fitting existence for the father of her children, but "she now. 'stood on her rights. There was a flutter of excitement just before counsel cloeed his summing up, when he referred to a forgery In the pos aeaskm. of the other side, designed "to blacken the character" of a prominent at torney and a man conspicuous In public life. But Maltre Cruppi said he would not pursue the matter unless compelled to do so, and concluded with the claim that his case had been made out and a glowing appeal against calling witnesses, which, he said, would only bring disaster and ruin upon others. Maltre Cruppi made no, concealment of the fact that the countess aided her hus band In his electoral campaign last May. Maltre Bonnet of counsel for Count Bonl began his reply by describing the dreams of luxury of a young American heiress when she marrld a French noblemsn re sulted in making the llfo of extravagance upon which she ttitered quite natural to her. Counsel then read an affectionate let ter written by the countess to the count excusing her inability to furnish funds be cause her brother George would not supply them.

J. Haggerty. tha man who committed sui cide by asphyxiation last Saturday night at the Brunswick hotel, on Uouglaa between Twelfth and Thirteenth streets, was posi tively Identified yesterday as a Catholic prlent who escaped from St. Bernard's hoa- nital In Council 'Rltiffa luat ITrldnv nlnf. The Impression exists that Haggerty Is not tne man s real name. He was supposed to have been from Scranton, Pa. His porper name Is thought to, have been Delaney rainer ieianey. AA ITrtdav evening m tuill.nt at fit nr nard's le'ft surreptitiously and when the nospitai authorities learned from the news papers of the suicide of a stranger at tha Brunswick who resembled a priest they be gan to make Investigations. A visit was nald hv the rhanlafn tf thm Yinmnltml in th city and county jails In Omaha to satisfy nim me missing patient, wnoae mind was not right, was not In either plsce. About 1:80 Wednesday afternoon Mr. Klnn, a young medical student at the Mercy hospital In Council Bluffs, went to the office of Coroner Bralley to view the body. lis said he had been sent at the request of Dr. McDermott, chief surgeon at St. Bernard's, who had an Inkling that Haggerty might be their missing patient. It appears Hag gerty was an Inmate of the Mercy hospital for a few weeka last spring, where Mr. Klnn made his acaualntanre Mr. Klnn however, he never learned the real name of tne patient, but thought he was Father De laney. Klnn Unarmed la Speech. Mr. Klnn evidently knew more about the case than he cared to divulge. Wheu taken Into the room where the body lay Mr. Klnn refused to commit himself, saying he did not wish to say anything until ha had talked with Dr. McDermott. He made a minute examination of the body and discovered several marka of Identification, which assured lilm the. body was that of the mlBSlnaj Driest, and after he ev am In Ait the clothing worn by the dead man ha intimated he had found whom he was look ing for. When Haggerty was found in the room at the Brunswick hotel last Sunday morn 1ig at about o'clock nothing was re ported to have been round among his ef fects except 1 cent, but It develops ha carried a rosary and wore scanulara around his neck. No other articles were found by wmcn ne could be Identified beyond the bottle which contained the carbolic acid and three trunk checka. His collar and underwear were marked "J. K." Tha rosary was finely mounted In gold. Mr. Klnn was shown the rosary and aatd he was sure It -was" the one possessed by the man he knew at the hospital. The trunk checks gr .believed to be old ones which Haggerty picked up In soma manner, as diligent search on the part of Coroner Brailey haa been ".futile In finding any trunks at either of the deposts with which the check numbers would correspond. Dr. O'Keefe la Positive. Shortly after Mr. Klnn left the coroner's office Dr. M., E. O'Keefe, chief Burgeon at 8t. Bernard's hospital, arrived in company with Dr. A. v. Hennessey of Council Bluffs. The doctor, , were conducted by Coroner Bralley to view th,e body of Hag gerty. Dr. O' Keefe,' on entering tha room, merely took one gano at the body and then- aald: "That'a the man, all right. I am positive of that fact." The doctor then examined the body for marks of identifica tion In the' aame manner that Mr. Klnn had in his examination. It appears that Haerv k.i . treated at the hospital and-'waa allghtly u;meiiiea. .aooiii two ,montlii ago he at. tempted to commit splcide by cutting his thjvat. but lii fforta were frustrated; yet the scar froia the jvound he Inflicted re mained and l.waa y this means the Iden tification wa s positively established.

Last Friday night Haggerty, ' who had been a-patient at the hnanltal t . i. over two months, took a stroll around the hospital grounds and failed o return. He was not considereaia dangerous patient and was allowed km.m...li. . his absence did not excite alarm until Sun- 11 is evident he aft the hospital and came Immediately to Omaha and obtained a room at the Brunswick hotel, paving In advance for his accommodations. After conversing with the night clerk. Harry Merrlam. for a few-mlnutea he aald he b. lieved he would" go to the Auditorium to hear W. J. Bryan speak. Roes to Republican Headqnartera. It Is certain he went to the Auditorium and, then walked to the republican head quarters. Seventeenth and Farnam streets, where he had a short conversation with James Walsh. He retired about U o'clock that night anO spent nearly all of the next day Int tbe office of the hotel. At tha Inquest, whlrh was held Monday' afternoon. Mr. Merrlam, the clerk, testi fied that Haggerty was very affable and spoke on many subjects, and did not ap pear to be desponde it. yet his conversa tion was mainly on peculiar subjects and It was thought his actlona were trifle strange. He told the clerk of his travels In this country. Europe and Japan, and gave the clerk the Impression of being a priest. ' He was plainly, though neatly dressed In a black broadcloth suit, but did not wear a vest nor the- usual clerical collar, but In other respects ho answered perfectly the description of a priest. His hands wern very small and soft.' He retired for a short nap late In the afternoon on Saturday and that mas tha last seen of him at the hotel' until he waa discovered Sunday morning In the room with tha gas Jet turned on and the empty bottle of carbolic acid lying under the bed, where It waa found bv Police Surrm.n Mor ris. The bottle which contained th had evidently been, bought In Chicago, as it core toe ia,tei or the Palmer House pharmacy In that 'city. This fact coin. eld'? with a' statement made by Mr. Klnn to the effect that Hagnerty had been In Chicago shortly before he cams to tha Merry hospital for treatment. Had Pariah la Wyomlnar. It la reported that Mr. Haggerty for merly had charge of a parish In Wyoming, but Ma excessive fondness for drink waa the cause of hla removal. Ha proved a most tractable patient at St. Bernard'a hospital, beyond tha" one attempt to and hla Ufa. and waa allowed all possible liberty. All those who Identified tha body were retlcvnt In divulging any Information re garding tha cise and all refused to give the tal name of . the . priest. It la regarded aa certain he waa not a native of Penn sylvania, as was presumed by reason of the fact that he registered at the Bruns wick hotel as coming from Scranton.
