Riker, who is named by the plaintiff as the co-respondent in the action, asked Justice Greenbaum in the Supreme Court to-day to dismiss the complaint for lack of prosecution by Mrs. Clopton. The case, the lawye rsaid, had been at Issue for over a year, but no notice of trial had been served on the defend- ant or co-respondent. The plaintift more than a year ago went to her hus- band and got from him consent to dis- continue her suit, but no action had been taken to have an order of discon- tinuance entered.
