—Justice Cheater has denied the application for alimony and counsel fees made by Mrs. Jennie A. Bell of Knox who is suing for a divorce from her husband, Theodore Bell. He did so on the ground that the testimony showed collusion on the part of the wife in setting the evidence against her husband. He holds that the woman named as corespondent went to the home of Bell through the connivance of the wife. Justice Chester, however, makes the decision without prejudice to divorce action.
