MILD V OF MRS. JEANETTE 1 -T-COOKE MOVES THE ENTIRE COURT ROOM. SPECTATORS SOB Embezzlement Trial. Develoires Dramatic Incidents Child Brought Forward Letters Canst Discomfiture. Cincinnati, O., June 15. Two incidents stirred the emotions of the spectators at the trial of Edgar S. Cooke, charged with embezzling $24,000 from the Big Four railway. The second brought tears from judge, jury, attorneys and spectators. The first aroused the curiosity of all who saw Mrs. Jcsnnette Stewart-Ford, on the stand for cross-examination, and Mrs. Edward S. Cooke, wife of the defendant, figured In the first incident. When the matronly looking woman who has stood by Cooke through all his troubles took a seat at bis side there was a murmur of expectancy, intensified when Mrs. Ford's invalid chair was wheeled In front of the jury. It was the first time in years that the "eternal triangle" had been completed In Ooke's case, bu all concerned kept their impulses under control and there was no indication on the wife's countenance that she felt anything but pity for the other woman. .. The second stirring scene was preceded by the entrance of. Mrs. Ford's daughter, aged six. The child ran to her mother just as the latter said: "There is ray daughter Jeannette, and she is Cooke's ch'ld." The witness burst into sobs as she made this cenfession. Tears streamed down the faces of jurymen and spectators. ' So shaken was Mrs. Ford by the incident that she was taken out of the room. Her physician told the court later that she could not endure further questioning. Court then adjourned. The child's entrance was preceded by the introduction of a letter from Mrs. Ford to Cooke In which she asked him to visit her at a hospital or at least send-her money and provide -for the daughter. T.'nder cross-examination, the woman admitted thtt she shot Cooke and had him arrested for sault in Chicago and later for nonsupport of the child, letters that had passed between the two were read. Then it was Mrs. Cooke's turn to shrink, for in many of them her husband had referred to her as "O. H." Mrs. Fcrd testified the initials meant "old hag." LARGE CLASS CONFIRMED.
