Plunkett wants $50,000, Mrs. Plunkett tells of the aliena- tion sult in an affidavit asking all- mony from her husband pending the determination of the separation suit je has filed against him. Justice Newburger awarded her $80 a week and gave a fee of $250 to her attor- ney, Leo R. Brilles.

While process servers were looking for Mise Gwynne with Plunkett says, her husband brought hie suit against Baggs. The manner in which Mrs. Plunkett discovered the friendship between her husband and the actress ls described by Mrs. Plunkett as follows: “In Al of this year I found in my husband's pocket a leather ee Freel on which was engraved: Nap ebets | dence, Mrs. Plunkett asserts, her hus- band promised to throw the case more trouble followed.

Mrs. Gould says her husband has failed to pay the taxes on the prop- erty so that in November, 1913, there had accumulated back taxes and in- terest to the extent of $54,000, Then, Mra, Gould asserts, the rec- ords show that when the property was put up for sale for taxes George Gould authorized Attorney Hack to bid in the property.
