OH A Pv<i KS AS!) COUNTER*
CBARQES
Mrs. Rose Rosenborg, a strikingly
handsome bernette, yeeterdsy sued, in
Justice O'Oorman's Part of the Supreme
Ooutt in New York tor separation from
Morris Rosenberg, on the grounds of
"cruel aid inhuman treatment." Io
bis answer, Mr. Rosenberg makes
countercharges of "cruel and inhuman
conduct." List) of what each consider?
ed "cruel and inbnmaa conduct" were
furnished through their respective coun?
sel.
Tbe wife complained tbat Mr Rosen?
berg, to whom she was married August
IS, 1903, beat her, called her names aoej
although enjoying an income of more
than $5,000 a year, allowed her inly $2
a week. He also compelled her to make
an exact accounting lor every cent of tbe
f 2, she said.
Mr. Rosenberg denied the accusations
and, in turn, accused bis wife ol the fol?
lowing:
1 BM called me 'bum/ 'tramp' and
'kike,' swore at and cursed me.
"She said she hoped I would drop dead
and be brought home on a s retcber.
'She raid she bad hermourniog clothes
ready and hoped soon to be a widow.
"She taught our only child Ar.hur to
call me vile names.
"She refused to prepare breakfast or
supper for me.
".-be threw a dock nt me and tried to
(?trike me with a silver soup ladle,
"she hit me on the head with a milk
bo'tle.
Mune. 1905, she threw a long kitchen
knife st me.
"lu November. 1905 she threw asugsr
bowl at my head.
' S ie sued for separation, and then
recanted and wrot? a letter promising to
retorts. This oo?( me?..^ i.4vi n
"After the reunion, she sa:d: 'Now,
I will finish you. I nrarly made yon a
consumptive before. Now will be y*>ur
end.'" ^^^^^^
CAUSE OF SUICIDE.
Speculation is rile in army circles
in New York over the motives which
could have driven Lieut. Jjhn J. Mol
ler, cf the Eghth Infantry, to commit
suicide by shooting himself late Monday
night in n room at the Grand Union
Hotel. As a result, a etory was revived
o the eflect tbat the young army officer
had been jilted les* tban a year ago be
a yu og woman with whom be had be?
come acquainted while sa ioned st
II lvernors Island, and to whom he bad
bean a t'ntive up to tbe time of his
departure for tbe Philippines.
While stationed in the Inlands, Lieu?
tenant Moller was tried before a cou.t
marlial os a charge of having condoned
cruellies on the part of the Filipino
chiefs, but the verdict of the court rx
onerited him aid when hs returned
from the far east it was with tbe Idea
of renewing tis suit fer the young wo?
man's hand.
Upon landiog st San Francisco, how?
ever, he learned that, durirg bis ab?
sence, the aiy hai become engaged to
another and this preyed oa his mind,
his friends d'dare.
The thoto'ng Monday night is be?
lieved by tbe intimates of tbe officer to
have been caused by comtiot Drooling
over the culmination of this short lived
romance.
Tbe name of (he young woman is not
given, but she is said ti have married
tome months ago a roted athlete cf an
eastern university wbo, in his college
days, wai one of the heroes of the foot?
ball firld. _________
