He declined to name amount of damages he proposes ask for. De Marco's proposed litigation fol- lows on the heels of O'Mara's nouncement that his lawyers, ¥ ham and Cooper are preparing to sue the restaurateur for heart balm for their client, advancing the claim that De Marco stole the affections of O’Mara’s wife and broke up his home. O'Mara declares that the restaurant man lured his wife into his place of business and supplied her with so much liquor on several occasions that she required the services of a phvsi- cian to “straighten her out.”” He also alleges that De Marco visited the O'Mara home during his absence, his actions causing an estrangement be- tween the couple. Business Relations. De Marco said today that he had no relations with Mrs. O'Mara other than those of a business character. He ad- mitted that she came to his place of business on several occasions but all her visits were of a legitimate nature. Regarding the charges of her husband concerning visits at the O'Mara home, the restaurateur admitted that he had calfed but he =aid it was at the re- quest of the woman, who wanted to discuss the problem of securing work, | she having explained that she was about to leave her spouse. McMahon, he says, enters intd the case by reason of h isit to the res- taurant on Thursday and the charges he made at the time. “P. 8.” was a member of a party consisting of Dep- Sheriff Stockwell, O'Mara and O'Mara, which called on De Mar- and demanded payment of dam- ages, threatening litigation as an al- ternative. The theater owner de- clares that he was simply acting as a friend of the O'Maras and he denies that vhe made, any slanderous state- ments, Pe Maxco alleges that O'Mara thopght $125 would be a suitable sum for dropping the case. The restaura- teur claims he figured the demand as a “hold up” and refused to accede tc it. This is contradicted by O'Mara who claims the man agreed to settle but balked on the price, declaring thaf the amount was exorbitant. 1 When the suits come up for trial some interesting testimony is prom- ised and both sides admit there is possibility of some sensational fea- tures developing. The O'Maras re well known in the city. The husband is an attache of the Keeney theater and is also a supernumary policeman. Mrs. O'Mara until recently was employed as cash- ier in the theater.
