NEW YORK, Feb. 11 An order has been made by Supreme Court Justice Brady in a case, said to be the first on record in the local courts in which a Quakeress sued for divorce, granting Mrs. Elizabeth A. Valentine alimony pending her suit against John H. Valentine, confidential man for John Williams, Inc., bronze and wrought iron manufacturer. The court orders the payment of $20 a week. The affidavits submitted indicate that the case will be bitterly contested. Valentine says his wife is a Quakeress and "has some peculiar ideas of matrimony and morality." The Valentines have a son, who Iholds a scholarship at Dartmouth Col'lege and is working his way through. They separated twelve years ago, when Valentine was chairman of the 'racing committee of the Harlem Wheelmen and was referee at many (bicycle races, including six day congests in Madison Square Garden. Valentine was away from home until late at night on account of his interest in bicycle racing. He contends that his wife abandoned him. Valentine told Justice Brady that his duties compelled him to be away from home until late at night. Mrs. Valentine bases her suit upon an allegation that her husband is living with Miss .Olive C. Fields in a house he bought for her at West View, N. J., in 1908. She submitted an affidavit that he told one Ellen Dinker that he was engaged to Miss Fields and expected to mar'ry her. She alleges that he met Miss Fields more than ten years ago, when she was 15 years old, and that he then posed as a single man. An affidavit by 'one of Mrs. Valentines witnesses says that the deponent met Valentine at the home of Miss Fields in 1902 and that Miss Field's mother introduced him as "Olive's intended, Mr. Babcock." Mrs. Valentine says her husband has visited her only four times in the past five years. Valentine denies the charge, as does Miss Fields, and says that he is one of several boarders she has At West View. He says he was an intimate friend of her father, Joseph C. Fields, who died in 1900, and that her father gave him $4,000 to be used for her benefit. He says he used this money to buy her the house she occupies at AVest View and that he has no interest in the house.

National News Association) BERLIN, Feb. 11. A German military movement "that will remain unique in the history of the world" is being agitated by Herr Bassendorff, leader of the National Liberal party. "The tension between Russia, and Austria is becoming too high for the comfort of the other European powers," said Herr Bassendorff today. "Germany Is doing her best to maintain the friendly accord between the powers but when we consider the fact that the peace of Europe Is virtually in tbe hands of a monarch 85 years old. Emperor Francis Joseph of Austria, the outlook takes on a dangerous hue. I believe that Germany will find it necessary during the fall maneuvers next October to make a military movement which will be unique in the history of the world. Some movement seems imperative and should be urged on all sides."

The cases of the state against Mary Allen, charged with contributing to the delinquency of Georgianna Doyle and against Fred Hiers and Cecil Baldwin charged with petit larceny were disposed of this afternoon, all defendants receiving jail sentences and fines. Mrs. Allen was told by Judge Fox that she was lucky that an indictment was not returned against her for perjury as It was definitely known to the grand Jury that she testified to an untruth before Justice of the Peace Morgan when she signed an affidavit that her ward and grand child was sixteen years of age. The defendant broke down when the judge fined her $25 and costs and sentenced her to the Home for Friendless Women for 10 days. Tears coursed down her cheeks. She seemd to believe the court was too severe with her. Baldwin was in court with his wife and small children. When arraigned he pleaded guilty to the charge of petit larceny, the indictment charging him with defrauding the street, car company being dismissed upon a motion of the prosecutor. He had noth

ing to say to the charges. The Judge told him his action in running away at the time the grand Jury was probing the case against him was not to his credit. He was sentenced to the county jail for 10 days and fined $10 and costs. Larceny Cases. Fred Hiers,. who acted b distributing agent for the conductors, Baldwin and Henry Warman, was given the same fine. His- mother and other relatives were in the court and will seek to have the jail sentence revoked. Had the men been prosecuted on the charge which was returned against them by the grand jury they would have been sentenced to the penitentiary for from two to fourteen years, said Judge Fox. "I don't understand why the grand jury did not return an indictment charging Mrs. Allen with perjury, said Judge Fox. "I do not believe she knew of the seriousness of her crime when she committed it. I would rather be cow-hided than send these people to jail, but the law compels me to do so." DELINQUENT SALE VERY SUCCESSFUL Seventy-Seven Pieces Property Sold 169 Settled For. of The sale of delinquent property held at the door of the court house yesterday was far more successful than any of the county officials had anticipated. One hundred and ninety-nine pieces of property were settled for prior to the day of the sale and seventy-seven pieces were sold at the sale. The amount settled for prior to the sale credited the county with $5,481.47 and $743.17 was realized through the sale. There were 115 pieces of property on which no bids were received. On the later pieces of property there is due the county for delinquent taxes $1,618.01. A total settlement was made on 276 pieces of property and the total collection amounted to $6,224.64. At the sale last year eighty-five pieces of property. were sold and $1,023.07 was realized. Though more property was sold last year the sale this year is considered more successful. HOWRENJANTS LUCK Wanted 1 3 Indictments Heard on Friday, 13, 1913. A motion to have the indictments quashed against Charles Howren of Dublin against whom thirteen true bills were returned by the grand jury will be made by attorneys for the defendant. Howren's legal adviser asked the judge if the case could not be heard on "Friday the thirteenth" as it probably would result unluckily for'some one because of the number of indictments returned. He was told that the coming Friday fell on the fourteenth of the month. President-Elect Has Namesake in This City. President-elect Woodrow Wilson has been honored by Mr. and Mrs. Louis A. Kutter, 477 Linden Avenue, by baring aa a namesake. Woodrow Wilson Kutter, who was born January 28. Woodrow W. is the sixth child.
