Huebner a former licensed detective in New York by Judge C. I.. Avery in superior court here today, but was warned by the judge that the Jivorce will probably not be recogniz- vgd as legal in New York state. The Huebners were married in New York in 1914 and had difficulty due to the husband'ssilleged cruel treatment of the wife. In November, 1918, when Mrs, Huebner returned from a short visit on Staten. island she could not (ind her husband, and has been un- able to locate him. Mps. Huebner now works in New York but returns to her home in Hartford week-ends. Judge Avery said he was satistied Mrs, Huebngr has a legal residence here, but th&t the facts that her mar- tial resldence was entirely in New York that her husband’s residence so far as Is known is in New York and that the desertion oceurred in New York make it almost certain the courts in New York will not recog- nize divorce granted in Connecti- eut.
