Davies Reports to Justice Traux that Original Dodge Divorce Was Legal, and This Will Restore Mrs. Morse as the Lawful Wife of the Ice King. + HE DECLARES THAT DODGE WAS LEGALLY SERVED WITH NOTICE, : Under This Ruling the Annulment of Her Marriage to Mr. Morse Which Mrs. Dodger Morse Obtained May Be Set Aside---She — Has Taken No Part in the Proceedings. The work of untangling the Dodge-Morse matriomnial and divores | snarl began to-day, with Referee William G. Davis's finding that the Dodge divorce of 1898, was regular and legal. ‘This was on the application of Samuel Untermyer, in behalf of Cbaties: W. Morse, the multi-millionaire banker and ice king, whose marriage of | 1881 to the divorced Mre. Dodge was annulled by Justice Bischoff in Jan- uary because Justice Olarke bad in December annulled the Dodge divorce on the report of ex-Justice Ernest Hall as referee on Obarles F. Dodge's appHoation claiming he had.not been served with the summons and com- pleint and that the lawyer who appeared in the Dodge divorce suit in his name had oot been employed by him. REFEREE DAVIES REPORTS, Mr. Davies, the referee appointed by Justice Troax, of the Supreme ud to report his opinion as to whether the summns was served on Dodge in the original action brought by Mrs. Dodge against ber husband for divorce, and also as t whether Dodge authorized Mortimer C. Ruger to appear for him ag bis counsel, was filed with Justice Truax Inte this afternoon. Mr. Davies reports that the summons was duly sérved and thet Ruger was authorized to appear for Dodge. The result of this will be that Justice ‘Truax will annul Justice Clarke's decision vacating the decree of divorces ’ obtained by Mrs, Dodge, Application will be made to Justice Truax fo con- firm the report on Friday. WiLL BECOME LEGALLY MRS, MORSE. Following thie will probably come an application by Mr. Dodge to se aside Justice Bischoff’s decree annulling his marriage to Mrs. Clemence | Cowles Dodge, the annulment having beer’ based on Justice Clarke’s decision atting aside the Dodge divorce now declared to have been a legal divorce. Incidentally, the decision of Referee Davies by inference is a declara~ tion that Charles F. Dodge. the restaurant manager, hotel clerk and dining-room car conductor, who is under indictment for perjury in swear- ing before Referee Hall that he had not been served and did not employ Mortimer A. Rogers to defend his wife's divorce action, did not ok tae fully when he so testified. Mrs. Clemence Cowles Dodge-Morse has taken go part in these proceed- inge Inatituted by Charles W.
