Best of all, she is unique.
Everything that she does has the

OAKES W_l_N_S_lllS SUIT.
The End of 3 Famous Divorce Case Iii
the City of Churches.
PLAINTIFF A MILLIONAIRE.
The Jury Found the Defendant Guilty of
Imus-a! Conduct on Each Char-go.
Rendering of the Judgment
Temporarily Postponed.
NEW YORK,*Dec. 14.—The jury on the:-
trial of the action for absolute divorce
brought by Millionaire Francis J. Oakes
against his wife, Luella, reported to J us-
tice Brown, in Brooklyn, today that they
had found Mrs. Oakes guilty of both
charges of adultery that her husband had
made against her. Their verdict was found
at 8:15 o’clock last evening and sealed.
The questions had been formulated by Jus-
tice Brown, and the jury simply wrote the
answer “Yes” or ‘fNo” under them.
Foreman Richard L. Lincoln handed up
the verdict, and Justice Brown read it
carefully. Then he handed it to the clerk,
who announced it.
The charges were, first, that on Oct. 7,
1888, in the rear of Morris’ blacksmith
shop, in Astoria, on a boat, Mrs. Cakes
committed adultery with Paul Rooney,
Jr., and that, secondly. on the night of
Aug. 27 last, in the Graham House; at
Eighty-eighth street and Madison avenue,
this city, in Mrs. Oakes' room, between 10
and 11 o’clock at night, she committed
adultery with Henry Heymann, lawyer, of
- this city.
Under both of the court’s questions com:
prising these charges the jury wrote the
word “Yes. ”
Mr. Oakes and his counsel were in court
promptly at 10 o’clock to hear the verdict.
Of the other side, however, the lawyer
Sunday school teacher. Stillman F. Knee-
land, whose name has been dragged into
the case in relation to Miss May Duma—
gele, was the only person present to hear
the jury’s verdict.
Where Mrs. Oakes and Miss Dnrnagele
were he could not say. It was stated that
they were in Jerry Wernberg’s office, wait-
ing for news to be brought to them.
Kneeland Overcome.
When the jury’s verdict was announced,
Lawyer Kneeland, who had been before
pale and nervous, sank down in his chair
and then advanced to the bar-as if to make
a motion. His lips moved, but nota sound
was audible. J usticb Brown leaned for-
ward and asked him to repeat it.
Again Mr. Kneeland’s lips, that were
an ashcn hue, twitched, but only a mum-, ,
bling sound could be heard. -
“If your honor please,” said Mr. Pat-
terson, “I move for judgment on the ver-
dict.”
Then Mr. 'Kneelend was heard to say
very faintly: ‘
‘ ‘ I don’t know what is the proper motion
to make in a case of this kind at such a
time. ”
Justice Brown said:
“Well, I’ll adjourn all further procecd- '
lugs till next Wednesday at 10 o’cloc . ”
The jury was then dismissed, and Mr.
Kneeland hurried away to carry the news
to Mrs. Cakes, Corcspondent Heymann
and his former Sunday school scholar, Miss
Dumagele.
Foreman Lincoln said it took four bal-
lots, two on. each question, for the jury to
agree.
On the first, as to the adultery with
Rooney, the first ballot was 9 to 3 against
Mrs. Oakes. The second was unanimous
against her.
As to the alleged adultery with Hey-
mann the jury on the first vote stood 6 to
6, and on the second 12 against Mrs. Oakes.
The jury then wrote in their answers
and went home. This was at 8:15 O’clock.
They had been out since 4 o’clock.
