New Britain SAYS IS WIFE HAS “GONE WITH DENTIST New York Millionaire Sues Ifor Divorce After Desertion New York, July 21.—The ruins of one romance _and a runaway quest | for another i Europe came to light yesterday in an action for divorce which Edward W. Browning, a son of the founder of Browning, King & Co., and a prominent real estate operator and builder, flled in the supreme court &against Nellle Adeie Browning, whom he married April 17, 1915, Tetectives in Paris have cabled that Mrs. Downing 18 in IFrance with Dr. Charles H. Wilen, who for several years has been Ler dentist. They are sald to have sailed for Europe on the Olympic June 30, Justice John ¥ord yesterday signed an order permitting service of the summons and compiaint by publica- tion. The application 1or Mr. Brown- ing was made by Walter J. Carlin and Herman J. Witte of 2 Rector street. Mrs. Browning is said to have taken up a residence in the Hotel Imperial and later in the Hotel Chamford dur- ing the last two weeks in Paris, She Admitted Love For Wilen In an affidavit submitted to Justice Ford in support of the motion for service by publication Mr. Browning said his wife had told him of her love for Dr. Wilen and on another occasion asked the value of jewelry which he gave her and how much he thought she might realize from its sale or ex- change. During the latter part of June he learned messages had been exchanged by his wife and Dr. Wilen and she had applied several times to the travel bu- reau of the American Express com- pany for bookings to Europe. After Mrs. Browning disappeared, detectives were engaged to make & search here, and then abroad. Irom reports which they made to Mr. Browning, she was traced to Paris, and not far from her in the same hotel Dr. Wilen was found. The identification was clined through pho- tographs, it is sald. Mrs. Browning engaged passage on the Olympic un- der an assumed name. The Paris po- lice records show an Adele Wilen, aged 28, Dr, Wilen gave his age as 29, and described himself as a stu- dent. Photostatic coples of these rec- ords have already reached this coun- try. When the significance of Justice Ford's order was learned yesterday, Mr. Witte, in behalf of his clinet, said: “This whole matter has been a com- plete surprise to Mr. Browning. Mrs. Browning left without cause or justifi- cation. Mr. Browning, I know, has been most indulgent with her, and al- ways was liberal in providing for her. “By provisions he had made for her before this, she had an independent income. She has jewelry probably worth $8,000 or $10,000 which he had given her from time to time. When he discovered that she had:gone, he was dumfounded. “From photographs we have identi- fled Mrs. Browning and learned that she and Dr. Wilen have been spend- ing a great deal of time at Maxim's and other places.” Had raoMinary Home The Brownings lived together until June 29 at 35 West Lighty-First street, where they had an extraor- dinary home of 24 rooms and a sum- mer roof garden atop the building, which Mr. Browning ownsg, Since 1918 they have adopted two children.

I, July 21,—After hav- ing flown 20,000 miles safely since the opening of the line on regular and chartered trips, one of the air yachts of the New York-Newport air serv- ice, the “Fleet Wing," met with its first mishap here late yesterday-after- noon as it was making a landing from New York. As a result H, Cary Morgan of New York is at the naval hospital with a compound fracture of the Jeft leg below the knee. The other passenger on the air- plane Harold Fowler, also of , New York, escaped with no more serious injury than a ducking in Coddington Cove, The pllot, H. H, Thorburn, was uninjured, though he was taken to the Thospital for observation after being rescued tvom the water. The airpland is badly damaged, hav- ing turned completely over as it struck the water. It was towed to the shore by two navy boats and an effort will be made to right it tomorrow to ascertain the exact damage. The terminal of the line being so close to the naval station, there was a prompt response from officers and men there to aid in the rescue work. Their assistunce was invaluable and the faciiities of the naval hospital were immediately offered. The Fleet Wing was the second of the line's airplanes to arrive from Nw York on th regular Friday trips. The Gray Lark had preceded it with Messrs. Hugh D. Auchincloss, as passengers and had made a good landing off the station. The ¥leet Wing followed in a few minutes, Pllot Thorburg bringing the machine in across the wind, which was blowing fresh. chine was within 75 or 100 feet of the water it dipped sharply and struck the water hard. It came down on a slant and the lowest of the pontoons, striking the water first, “dug in.” The momentum of the machine was such that it turned completely over. After the accident, Pilot Thorburn was at a loss to explain what had caused the machine to fall as it did after having run perfectly all the way from New York. Manager Grover Loening of the line, who was stand- ing on the shore watching the air- plane come in, was also unable to ex- plain how the accident happened. The bellef is that the fall was caused by some fluke in the wind. Mr. Loening said that he regretted the accident extremely, but that the line's trips would be continued ac- cording to the schedule, and that the Sea Bird would take the place of the Fleet Wing. He took personal charge of the rescue work at the time of the accident and accompanied Mr. Mor- gan to the hospital. CITY ITEMS.

The girl was remanded to the Children's Socicty until July 27, with Instructions that she be Yreturned to | her home at that time, ‘provided the society has concluded its investiga- tion of the supposed run. Meanwhile the mystery surrounding the whereabouts of Sister Theresa, whose real name, it was learned, is Theresa McCormack, deepened yester- day with a statement made by the child in court that among the | woman's six trunks of accumulated | clothing there were two complete suits of male attire. One of .these suits, Helen said was of gray material. Strange Episode in Hotel 1 Added to this rame the story yes- terday concerning a strange episode in the Park Avenue hotel, where Sfster Theresa lived for several weeks before the child was taken from her. The last seen of the sister by the Children's Society authorities was when she left a taxicab at' Sixth avenue and Fourteenth street while cn her way to the Convent of Jesus and Mary, where she had been offered a haven, It was learned that on that evening, after her refusal to enter the con- vent, she reappeared at the hotel, \packed up her belongings and sent {them to the Pennsylvania station, |where she had them checked. | Heard Key Grate in Door That night about 1:30 o'clock Mrs. {Drisco, a guest at the hotel, was {awakened by the subdued rattle of a |key in the lock of her door. Assum- ing that some person had mistaken her room for his own she thought nothing further of it. until she was again awakened about half an hour |later by the same sound. In the par- tial dusk of her room she saw the knob turn as though some one were Jifting the door from without, Fright- ened, she called out “Who's there?" There was no answer, but the key was withdrawn and almost immediately, she heard the door of room 417, just across the hall, close softly, That had heen the room occupled by Sister Theresa, The next morning the chambermaid Paullne Meyeérs, found in the course of her routine cleaning that No. 417 had been occupiéd during the night. Since there was nothing, left in the room except a magazine she supposed that the occupant had relinquished ft, and so she took the magazine along with her. Shortly afterward while cleaning a room further down the hall she was accosted by the occupant of room 417, a man, He asked her if she had tak- en the magazine and on her reply that she had, demanded its return in a voice which seemed to the chamber- mald none too amiable, Pauline Meyers stoutly asserts that there was a remarkable resemblafice between this person and Sister There- sa, with whom she was familiar as having been the woman who occupied the room for several weeks previous with little Helen.
