14 GIRL SUES TURFMAN FOR $1,750 MONTHLY Sum Promised to Ward Off Breach ;. of Promise Suit, Plain- Dy the Associated Press. ‘WHIRE PLAINS, N. Y., June 17.— Jefterson Livingston, sixty-year-old millionaire and owner of a large Kentucky breeding stable for racing horses, has been sued by Miss Muriel Buell, twenty-eight, for his failure to live up to an alleged agreement to pay her $1,750 a month for the rest of her life. Knowledge of the action became known yesterday, when attorneys for Livingston argued in supreme court a motion for his examination before trial. Decision was reserved. Miss Buell charged that early last year Livingston entered into- the agreement for the monthly payments in consideration for her promise to withhold a threatened damage suit for alleged breach of promise to marry. The wealthy turfman paid the sums for eight months up to last December, she said, and suddenly ceased. Her suit, asking for $10,500 as payment for the months from De- cember to last May, seeks to have the courts establish’ the validity of the alleged agreement. In his answer Livingston said he had broken with Miss Buell because of her extravagance, saying he had made gifts to her totaling 38,000 one month. Miss Buell, who formerly lived in | Los Angeles, now is & resident of | Mamaroneck, Y el i ol TWO BANKS CLOSED. Frozen Assets Blamed for Western Institutions’ Troubles.

By the Ansociated Press. SAN FRANCISCO, June 17.—Na- tives of India, both high and low caste, were included yesterday in ex- isting immigration restrictions, in a decision of the United States circuit court of appeals revoking the citizen- ship of A. K. Mozumdar. Mozumdar was admitted to citizen- ship in Spokane, February 24, 1913, on the showing that he was a high caste native of the Punjab, and not subject to the rule excluding Asiatics. The government appealed to the United States district court at Los Angeles, where the defendant had moved, and an order was issued by the court revoking his citizenship. Mozumdar appealed to the circuit court. In the decision yesterday the court holds that the Supreme Court had defined racially all who come under existing restriction, and that Hindus are included in such defini- tions.
