HARRIET) AND HOT MARRIED Justice Dowllng Sales That Mrs. Bansom is Still the Wiie of Her < First Husband. Special Dispatch to The Star. NEW YORK, May 9.?A decision made yesterday by Justice Dowllng- tn special term, part V of the supreme court, em phasizes the necessity of a national uniform divorce law. By his decision the court says that a decree of absolute divorce which Eva B. Ransom obtained in Virginia from her husband. Port V. Ransom, a son of former Surrogate Ransom, is "of no force or effect" against Ransom In this state. Mrs. RAnnnm whn fa a Vl? ginlan, was married to Ransom in this city In 1890, when she was twenty years old. She got her Virginia decree of absolute divorce from hlm> In 1001 and was married to George L. Browning at the court house, Madisot^ Va., on April 24, 1006. Ransom recently sued his wife, who divorced him in Virginia, for an absolute divorce and named her second husband, George I* Browning, corespondent. In his sulCJtansom attacked the validity of the defendant's divorce. Justice Dowling holds that not alone is Mrs. Ransom's Virginia divorce invalid under the laws of this state, but that Ransom is entitled to a decree of absolute divorce from her because she is living with Browning as his wife. Tliatir'A T\/\*tr wwniuig oa.}a m ms aecision tna.t Mrs. Ransom "is blameless for the situation which has arisen," and that unless she and Ransom can agree upon some arrangement with respect to the custody of the children which is mutually satisfactory they will remain with their mother, "who has cared for them since her separation from the plaintiff." Had to Leave Husband. After their marriage Ransom and his wife lived together :n this city until May, 1896, when the court says, "by reason of Ransom's habits of iife Mrs. Ransom was obliged to leave him, returning to her old home in Virginia." Tn fVtrthop nf Iia ? ? ? **? " ? wi tuc oamc jcar Airs, nan am returned at her husband's solicitation and resumed her domicile with him. In February, 18WJ, she again left him. In the language of the court, "because of her husband's misconduct," and with her children took up her residence In Virginia. In March, 1901, Mrs. Ransom began & suit In the circuit court of Madison county, Virginia, against her husband for an absolute divorce, and named as co-respondent & Mrs. Casey. There was no personal service upon Ransom of the summons in this suit, service being made by publication. Ransom did not defend. "In the spring of 1902," says Justice Dowling, "after the decree bad been granted, but before the time to Intervene therein and have the default opened had expired? Ransom, through his attorney, procured a copy of the decree of divorce and of the record upon which it was fcunded from the Virginia court. "Thereafter .he requested from Mrs. Ransom the return of certain Jewelry he had theretofore given her. During all this time ne nad railed to provide In any way for his wife and their children." The Virginia Decree., The court saya that more than, four years after Mrs. Ransom got her Virginia decree Bhe married In the state of Virginia, and that two months thereafter Ransom, "who In the intervening time had remained quiescent with respect to the Virginia divorce proceedings," commenced his 'suit in this city for an absolute divorce, "for the ostensible purpose of having his matrimonial 9!.aiUi3 UCICI J1UI1CU. "The sole question to be now determined," says Justice Dowllng, In a very long decision. "Is the force and effect. If any, to be given to the Virginia decree by the courts of this state. The first question is whether the Virginia court acquired jurlsiictlon of the action In divorce. As to the lefendant herein (Mrs. Ransom), I am of the opinion that It did. But, unfortunately, lurlsdlctlon was never acquired over the lefendant (Ransom) In Virginia." Validity Not Admitted. The court then says that Ransom was never a resident of Virginia, never was served with process therein and did not 5ven voluntarily arvnear In t.h? milt "While he (Ransom) had himself suggested a legal separation, and had been the guilty cause of the actual separation, and while he knew of the granting of the decree and took occasion of the knowledge to lemand back certain presents he made his mrlfe." says the court, "yet I And no way >f determining upon the authorities that :he Virginia decree is binding upon him in :his state. "Although this state recognizes and enforces the Jurisdiction it obtains against ion-residents by the publication of a summons, it does not admit the validity of a ludgment in a matrimonial action obtained igainst one of its citizens in another state jvhere there was only publication of nrocpus ind no personal service or voluntary ap>earance. There has been no legislative adustment of this anomalous situation, which las been emphasized by repeated decisions." Justice Dowling says In conclusion that, n view of the uniform trend of decisions in his state. Mrs. Ransom's Virginia decree Is >f no force and effect against Ransom here, :onsequently Mrs. Ransom-Browning Is, intil Hansom's decree becomes final, still lis wife under the laws of this state.
