WIPE TO NAME
SEVERAL WOMEN.
By Private Leased Wire.
New York; Mug. 3.—Little by little
the tangled sksln nf matrimonial trou
bles that binds Halsey Corwin, son of
the former comptroller of Brooklyn,
and Roberta O. Corwin, tha daughter
of Morris Manges, of Shtepshesd Bay,
Is being unravelled. The latest devel
opment Is that ths wife has taken
steps to sue for a divorce on the
ground nf her husband’s relations with
several women, who are not named.
On July 13 Corwin suddenly discon
tinued his divorce suit against his wife.
That night she attended a dinner par
ty up town, as a result of which she
notified the police that she had been
robbed of a 380,000 collection of Jew
elry. The reason for the discontinu
ance of the husband's suit was that It
had been brought against Mrs. Corwin
personally, and as she Is not of legal
age yet, she cannot be Sued In person.
In hsr petition, Mrs. Corwin set forth
that her full name Is Roberts Garrett
Corwin, and that aha was born on De
camber 4, 1388.

also In official claalflcatlon territory,
but the piano manufacturers have nev
er been able to obtain favorable rates
In Southern territory, and their bust
nese In this section has been handl

One of the most unique echemez to
attract a crowd to an auction ante la
that worked out by James L. Logan,
of S. B. Turman A Co., who propoeea
that every men who attends the unc
tion sale of twenty-six choice Iota and
one splendid five-room house on next

per month on each lot. The iimvimaor
of the house will pay 3300 cash and
