WOES OF BROKAW’S WIFE TOLD IN COURT

She Says Wealthy Husband Had Her Put Out ot Hotel Mineola, N. Y„ Dec. 10.—More of the woes of the wife of a millionaire came out in the suit for separation of Mrs. Mary Blair Brokaw against William Gould Brokaw. She asks $2,500 a month alimony. She said that on an auto trip in France her husband took six or more drinks from a bottle. “We had a driver who did not know the way to the hotel to which we were going and the machine was stopped,” said Mrs. Brokaw. “I told the chauffeur to drive on and Mr. Brokaw turned on me and called me names. He said that it was his car and that he was the one to give orders. When we got to the hotel he called me more dreadful names.” She refused to return by auto to Paris because Brokaw wanted to drive the car. She went by train and registered at the Astoria. Brokaw notified the hotel manager, she said, that he would not be responsible for her accounts and she was asked to leave the place.
