STRANGE DIVORCE CASE. Application seYsente epesres atid on Account The Daughter of a German Noble the Plaintiff. Alleged Collusion Between a Lawyer and the Husband, ANTERESTING AFFIDAVITS OF THE PARTIES. &e. &, &e. Supreme Court—Chambers. Before Judge Ingraham. Oor. 9.—Gabrictia Sarltzer, vs. Alexander Saeltzer.— ‘By the papers in this case it appears that & divorce was ecreed between the parties in September, 1864. The Plaintif’, as appears by her affidavit, published below, is | the daughter of a man who was rewarded with the order | of nobility for bis personal merits, and the defendant is An architect engaged in this city for many years, The plaintift now applies to the court for the vacation of the decree of divorce on the ground that It was obtained by | Traudutent- meana, through a cunning trick of the de- | fondant and the adroit management of a cortain lawyer. | ‘To sum up the story in a few words, the lady claims that | ‘sho was induced to take part ina fictitious divorce suit | with the view to curing her husband of a species of | insanity with which he was represented to be aillicted | gn the subject of a separation from his wife; that she | Hever imagined a real suit was intended, and that she | ‘waa greatly surprised to learn avterwards that a bona fide decree of divorce had been entered, contrary to Ler ex- pectations and wishes, ‘In her afMdavit, presented to the court to-day, she sets forth that her life with the de- fendant had been very unbappy; that he sed her of infidelity with almost every man she came in contact with, and that on one occasion he seized her by the | throat aod bruised her severely. At his request, she swears, she wont with him to kee a lawyer named | Charles ¥. Wetmore, to whom she explained her do- | mestic: troubles; that the said Wetmore, al subsequent interviews with’ her, told her that her husband had been * conaulting with him for more than two years respec the best mode of getting rid of his wife; that he must be @ monomaniac on the subject, and that the best plan to | ursio would be to seem to'gratify his whims and | ies. Her affidavit continues as follov she stated to said Wetmore how the defendant de- | sired her to procure a divoree, and how violently he | threatened her in respect to it, but that ehe did not wish to procure a divorcee; that there was no ground for | itotber than the mania of the defendant, and as she | considered that a mero disoase she did not ‘deem herself | to bo at liberty to take any steps for a divorce, but on the contrary to be a reason why she should watch over | the health and happiness of the defendant more closely, | and make greater efforts for his recovery; that the best | method to aid in the recovery of the defendant would be to give a sceming assent to his desire for a divorce, and thus, to use his precise exprossion, “fool him in | the matter by taking such steps as would induce hima to | bolieve a real divorce was intended,” when he would | ~ apoodily change his tone and coase to desire a divorce {as the said Wotmore affirmed); that the defendant told aaid Wetmore that there was no ground whatever for a -chargo of infidelity against her husband, the said de- + fondant; to which he rephed that that was immatorial, | ~48 no roal suit was to bo instituted. Much © more was said at that and subsequent interviews of lik import betwoen said Wetmore and Mr. Lndicus, to wit: ‘that the complaint was not to be used for the purpose of any action in fact for a divores, but merely for the pur- of a seeming acquic:cence in the wishes of said de- fendant, and by a pretended action to dispel the mania- cal deinsion of the defendant, if it were possible so to do; | that when sho so sigued it Both tho sald Wetmore and | the deponent understood that to be the sole object and purport of the papers, and if she had concoived any thought that it would be us¢d for the purpose of com- menoing an action she would not have signed it, as tho said Wotmore very well knew; that the said defendant, aiter the entry of the decree in this action, frequently visited thts deponent, sometimes as often aé three times a day; this deponent being then unawaro of said docroe -being in existence had additional reason to belicve that no such decreee had been entered, and from the fre- quency of such visits, which continued down to the time Of his iliness—to wit, on or about December, 1864.

And the deponent further says that she was much sur- prised to learn of the entry of svch decree, thas she never knew nor suspected that the defend. ant Wad been fuilty of any misconduct which | would \outitle ber to a divorce, nor did she ever -know of the names of any witnvsses who ‘coulyivo their evidence of such miseonduct; nov does | she know the witnesses, or either of them, whose names | ‘are meutioned as the within produced before the referee in this action; nor did she ever see or hear of them, to hor knowlodge or belief, before hearing throug her counsel of the names.

THR HUSBAND'S SIDE OF THE stony. ‘The husband, of course, has a version of his domestic difficultios and the divorcee suit differing very mueh from that of the wifo.

She thus ob- tained from me on this settlement property to the value in all of $3,900, I being left only about $2,100 worth; and even of this I afterwards gave at different times sums to about $150, Mrs. Saeltzer immediately after the divorce said she must now separate from me and do the best she could for herself, and asked me to help establishing her im a boarding house, For about throe weeks in the latter part of September and beginning of October, 1864, I assisted her as much as I could, employ- ing and paying workmon; and she did establish a boarding house at No, 2 Greenestrect, in this city. After I had aided in establishing her there I never called upon her except on business connected with the settlement or with reference to my personal property kept by her, and only on few occasions, It became necessary for me to enil tn rospect to transferring to her the doads for tho lots, and afterwards in respect to some diffienlty which arove respoctiug a sale of the lots for taxes, from which I had to redeem them, so that she m‘ght have them tree and clear, On the 16th September, 1864, the paper hereto annexed in my handwriting, specifying the furni. ture Mrs. Saeltzer was to retain on the settlement, and the personal property Twas to keep, was inade out and signed by her. ‘The signature is in her handwriting.

My nt w fe is wealthy, nd that fact is known to my former wife. Mrs. Saeltzer never at any time, nntil more than two months aftor this marriage, expressed any focling other than satisfaction at our divorce. At nearly every. meeting she expressed herself as being so much happier since ‘our separation, About the 20th June, 1865, I was surprised at receiving a letter from Messra, Edwards & Hamilton, acting as her attorneys, in which the following demand is made:—*She demands two things of you: one {fs that you refrain from calling on her and annoying her by your harsh deportment towards her and your slanders of her; and the other is that you pay her back the two thousand dollars of her property that you received en your marringe, so that she can re turn’ to ner friends in Germany.’’” About tho 14th of September, 1865, I was called on by Charles W. Saeltzer, who makes an affidavit on this motion. He told me that proceedings were being taken by his mothor to set aside the divorce; but he told_me that all that was wished for was money, and that if I would pay a reasonable sum to her there would be no further trouble, He again called on me on the Ist day of October, 1865 (Sunday), and made in substance the same statement. ¢ affidavit of Mr. Ludicus that ye is informed that [received about five thousand n thalers from my mother's estate, | which was worth about ten thousand dollars, and that I have that sum deposited to my credit, is wholly un- founded in fact. The following is a true statement of my affairs:—From the year 1861 to 1864 I received in all about the sum of four thousand dollars in United States paper currency from my mother's estate. During the four years preceding my business—that of an architoct— was almost at a dead stand, and I had even given up my office. I had almost no business and earned almost nothing, and had during these four years spent the most of what I had previously saved. I received the $4,000 in instalments. Including ail I received from my mother's estate I had in September, 1864, in money and property, about $6,000, divided as I have above specified, and nothing else, except ‘an unpaid portion of my mother’s estate, amounting to about $600, of which I have received the $200 above mentioned. I have now only about $500 in cash, which forms my oaly property, excepting the unpaid claim of $400 from my mother’s estate and a claim for services as architect, also unpaid. As to Mrs. Saeltzer’s property, the following are the facts:—I never received, directly or indirectly, any part of tho six hundred thalers spoken of by her as being ad- vanced at the time of our marriage. If advanced by any boo it was to herself personally, or for her outfit, and never received any of it. The five hundred or vix hun- | dred thalers which she says came to her when hor brother died in 1845 was all received by her and uaed by her personally, and did not go to our joint maintonance. T received no part of it. My recollection is that it was @ much less sum which she then received. In 1858 the house in Germany Mrs. Saeitzer speaks of was sold for about eight thousand thalers. It was mort- gaged for more than half the value, and the net sum, which was paid to me for Mrs. Sacltzer, was about $1,200, and very little, if any, excceding that aum, irs. Saeltzer had appropriated to her own personal use at va- rious times about $900 of my money. I retained an equal amount of this $1,200, and pad over tg her at her request at various times more than the balance remain- ing due her. For the cight Hoboken lots, after the divorce, I had a fona fide offer of $225 a lot from the agent of the Hoboken Land Association. Ho said he had an offer of $250 a lot, and he wanted%o make something by the purchase. 1 informed Mrs. Saeltzer, she being the owner, but she said she thought the price too low, and that she would not sell at that price. The lots are undoubtedly worth $250 a picce, and can readily be sold Mr. Charles W. Wetmore, the lawyer referred to by Mrs. Saeltzer in her affidavit, states in a deposition which is among the papers presented to the court, that revions to the interview with that lady in Anguat, 1864, e never had any conversation with oither the plaintiit or the defendant on the subject of a divore*; that at thay. interview the plaintiff stated that she wished to be separated from the dofendant on account of his abusive and violent manners; that be (Wetmor:) told. her sho could obtain a limited divorce, or if she conld prove adultery, might get an absolote’ divorce; that she said she would profer an absolute divorce, if spificient testimony could be produced; that he (Wetmore) drew up a complaint for absolute divorce, which the plainti approved and signed; and that le did hot, during the progress of the case, talk with the defendaut in respect to the suit; that after oil these had been taken, the idea of Mr. Saelizer's in- sanity was for the first time broached by Mr. Ludicus in a conversation at which Mrs. Sacltzer wus present, and that it ves that the defendant should be loeked up in a Tunatic asylum; that he (Wetmore) discouraged this project; that he never countenaced the idea of insanity, and that everything sworn to by the plaintiff and Mr. Ludicus as to that matter was entirely false; that the fact that an actual suit was to be prosecuted to judgment was clearly understood by the plaintitt.

Commodore Edwin Ward Moore, of the Republic of Texas. Died, in this city, on Thursday morning, the Sth inst., at nine o’clock, in the fifty-fifth year of his age, Com- modore Edwin Ward Moore, of the Texan navy during the existence of Texas as an independent republic. ‘The deceased was wnative of Alexandria, Virginia, and Delonged to a good family, whose connections included many of the most distinguished names of the tO, OX- tending back to the famous Governor Berkel@, of tho ld colonta; times, At fourteen years of age Master Moore was tranaferred (rom the Alexandria Academy to the United States Navy, wilh 3 midshipman’s commis. sion, and, beginning with an extensive cguise in the sloop-of-war Hornet, he was much in activé service down to the Texas war of independence of 1836. At this time, by regular prometion, he had beeome a first lieu- tenant, and, as an intelligent, active and enterprising | officer, he was eingled out by the government of xag to the chief Command, as Commodore, of its naval establishment, which had yet to be cre- ated. Young Moore, resicning ‘his commission in the United States service, gladly accepted his ew appointment, and hastened to his new field of labor and adventare. This waa in 1837, He was a com- modore in the canse of a new republic which was with- out ships and without mongy. He contrived, however, ES from the credit of the republic and partly from is own resources, to purchase in New Orleans two small ships, which he Otted up and equipped as veasels-of-war. With these and a tender he set sail from New Orleans in the spring of 1843 for a trial of strength with the Mexican fleot awaiting him in the Gulf, This fleet consisted of eight or ten vessels, lnshuding two steamers, the Gauda- loupe and Monteznma, built in England at an exnense of # million of dollars. So great was the disparity between these opposing forces that, to save his ‘ne, m what he believed would he their certain destruction if they were overhauled by the enemy, President Houston ro- peatedly ordered Commodore Moore to seek shelter in the bay of Galveston; but, disregarding these orders or failing to receive them at New Orleans. Moore boldly put out to sea in search of the enemy, The Mexican ficet was at length sighted off the coast of Yucatan. A suc- cession of hot engagements followed in the bay of Cam- peachy, in which the Mexican squadron, invariably | beaten,’ was finally routed and dispersed, with heavy losses in ships and men. The success of the Texans made quite a noise in the world at the time, and the skill, intrepidity and effective handling of his ships dis- ‘ayed by Commodore Moore completely silenced in Texas his disobedience of President Houston’s orders and his proclamation of outlawry, In consideration of his services the Congress of ‘Texas—notwithstanding the removal of Moore by Presi- dent Houston, and the veto of the bill for his reinstat« ment by President Anson Jones—passed_ the bill into law, which included tho liquidation of balances of money oy account of the navy to the sum of over seventy thou- sand dollars, and the grant of a tract of land to the Com- modore of thousands of acres. After tho annexation of Toxas, the Commodore and his associate Toxan naval officers applied to Congress to be reinstated in the United States Navy, with the rank thoy held from Texas. This proposition was defeated. A comptomise was finally passed, in the shape of an appropriation to these officers, as officers of the Union on leave pay from the day of annexation to the passage of the bill, share accruing to Commodore Moore was some seventeen thousand dollars. His time subsequently was largely occupied in experi- monts on new mechanical inventions. During the late war he was occupied in this city upon a new machine, which he was sanguine would cast all other inventions of the last hundred years in the shade as a motive power, and create a revolution in the saving of coal such a8 the world has nover dreamed of. (n the day before his a my jhe said, “Next week we expect to astonish the world.” * After his return from Texas Commodore Moore, in 1849, married a beutiful, accomplished and wealthy yourg widow, Mrs. Cox, nee Stockton,.ot Philadelphia, who survives him. During the Iate war she remained with her mother, one of the Parish family, of Charlottes- ville, Va., and it was her mother’s house there that General Custer mado his headquarters in the famous raid of Sheridan across from the Shenandoah to the James river. Mrs. Moore, on a visit to her husband in this city, met him on Tuesday last, passed a pleasant evening with him and other friends; and when she parted with him as he teft for his business on Wednesday morning he was radiant with the success of his great enterprise and his future plans, He was brought back in the afternoon in adying condition from a stroke of apoplexy, and re- mained speechless to the last. His remains were taken to Philadelphia for interment under charge of the surviving wife and friends on Friday morning. Commodore Moore would have died a wealthy man and mizht have lived to a good old age had he been more careful of his own interests, more deaf to the claims and calls of others, and less devoted to new inventions. His strength was exhausted in his inces ant labors upon that engine which may ‘‘yet astonish the world.’ His death will be mourned by mapy friends from the Hudson to the Rio Grande. He was a stranger to fear, and modest and unpretending, as ull brave men are, He was a steadfast friend, a generous adversary, an affectionate husband and a good man.

District Attorney Hall rose and said:—In that case this morning I recrived the following letter, although the writer and counsel is in court :— LETTER FROM KETCHUM’S COUNSEE.. No. 63: Watt. Street, New York, Oct. 7, 1965. Dxaz sin—It bax been the intention of Edward B. Ketchnm from the first to plead guilty to the charge of forgery preferred against him, and he desired to do «0 when arraigned upon the indictments. He, however, under the advice of counsel, consented to interpose a plea of not guilty, for the reason that his testimony and explanations were important in matters affecting his late firm and their creditors. He now proporer to plead guilty; but as the matters referred tovare still pending and untinished, and bis ¢x- planations and testimony still required by those in- terested, it is desirable to defer the plea to as Inte a day | in the present term as may be practicable. We therefore propose, on some day which will suit | your convenience, and of which you may ad-rise me, to | withdraw the plea of not guulty, and pi guilty, as sug- gested in our interview this morning, and will do so on such day as you may please to name. Very respectfully, W. F, ALLEN, . of counsel for Edward B. Ketchum. A. Oakey Hatt, f'sq., District Attorney, New York city, Mr. Hall (continuing)—That, sir, is not an unusual re- quest. As your Honor knows, it is one granted here every day in cases where the testimony of parties is necessary for those whom they have in any wise injured or defrauded, and therefore I accede to it, and say to the gentleman that he must be prepared to put in the plea on the last day of this term, whatsoever day that is. It cannot be named yet, because the term sometimes breaks down proma- turely, and sometimes goes through its full measure. But whatever that last day is, I will send him word the night before, when the pleas will be withdrawn and the proper record put in, Ex-Judge Allen (counsel for Ketchum)—Any day towards the end of the term that will suit the convenience of the District Attorney and your Honor, and then [ desire to make some remarks. Mr. Hall—The witnesses in the case of Ketchum are therefore discharged from further attendance. ‘THE CHAIN OF RVIDENCE AGAINST KETCHUM. will be remembered by the readers of legal pro- coedings that when this matter wasup last month a classification of the various indictments against him was given: Now that the case is virtually closed it may not be uninteresting to give a bird’s eye sketch of what the prose- cution would bave proven if Ketchum had thrown himself upon a jury of his country for trial, from which the reader will get an insight into the modus op-randt of the way in which great criminal trials are conducted, as well as have great labor devalving upon & prosecuting officer in the preparation of cases of this magnitnde, especially when he has eminent legal talent to watch with eazle eyes for every technical defect in the evidence. So jealous is the criminal law of the rights of an accused party that every link must be supplied in its proper place, elxe the chain designed to envelope the defendant will prove worthless when toated by the rales of law, In anticipation of the trial of Ketchum the Dis- trict Attorney had summoned a clond of witnesses— thity-eizht in numbor—to establish the charge set forth in the indictinent which he elected to try. Counsel for the accused well know, no doubt, the impregnable nature of the fortress they had to attack, the rable arrange- ment of the batteris, and the skill and vigilance of their opponents, and so wisely surrendered. If the trial had taken place the respective links in the chain of testimony sddnoed ainst Ketchum would have been somewhat in is Wise -— Mr. Charles P, Leverich. President of the Bank of New York, would have proved the purchase of the “chock book” by the prisoner. Messrs. Yau! Bundor and The- odore Ward «i have proved his name as signed a forgery. Buel, President ofanother bank, would have proved the uttering of the spurious gold Then Mr. Day d Groesbock would have produced the cancelled gold checks, followed by Mr. Georve W. Van Loan, who would have established tho fact that (he uttering of tho checks was on Ketchum account, A trio of cashiers—Messrs. Billop Seaman, An- thony Laue Wa. A. Gibxon—would then have taken the stand itional proof of the utterance of thove bogus checks by unapprised of the fact that they Distret Attorney would then have as' company him to the boarding house of Mrs. Ives, in West Twentieth sirect, wher suit of rooms wader the asstmed name of Lowry, to prove flight and cone which would have been @ jon of bis argument when the ee, They would have boen recon- ity of Wall street, and an uttering auumber of theso fraudulent gold have beon estab) <hed by a brief interview & Vou Hofman, yn Norris and .

The District Attorney would then have groupod the facts established by the witnesses whom be called in a way which only great ex- perience in this branch of the law could enable one to do, and by all tho appliances of logic, iustration and erudition, and by calling into requisition the arts of oratory, he would have pressed upon the jury the rw bod convicting the prison ‘The Court, in the di of its high functions, then would have cited the law applicable to the charge pre- ferred in the a and jd for tae vitae ye manner, with a scrupulous regard for e people as well as the accused, would have given a digest of the bogs ‘The case would then be handed over to the jury, whose province according to their oaths would have beon to render a verdict according to the evidence. If, as is morally certain, the veraict were “guilty,” the judgment of the Court would be pro- nounced which would have consigned him who a few months ago was living La 9 sap and enjoying the con- fidenes of the capitalists of the country to incarceration in the State Prison for a term of five years. It may be that judgment will be tempered with mercy in view of Ketch volantarily pleading guilty and throwimg him- self upon the mercy of the Court THR CASK OF JENKINS. The Court called the case of Henry B. Jenkins, in- dicted for embezzlement and grand larceny. Diatrict Attorney Hall—In that case we are not ready, ‘on behalf of the people, to try it this term.
