The defense denies falsehood in the August 1894 article and presents a long list of interrogatories for Blaine to answer under oath about his marriage to Harriet Stanwood, their courtship, a possible child, and related matters. The case aims for limited, expedited jury action in October with assurances of a speedy proof of facts.
