YORKVILLE POLICE COURT.
A MATRIMONIAL DIFFICULTY.

case OF abandonment, in which David Nc.
Elreavy, plumber and gasGtter doing business at
51S Third avenue was the defendant, came up for
decision in the Yorkvile Police Court yesterday.
Alderman Plunkett ordered McElreavy to pay his
wife for the support Of herself and child the of
IS week. The accused refused to do this on the
grou nd that his lawful wife, who is at present v-
ing at Greenpont, was now receiving
from him an annual amount of 5000, and
his counsel therefore argued that the law could not
compel him to support two wives at the same time.
He admitted to have been regularly married to the
complainant, but does not think that he thereby
was guilty OF bigamy because the first wife virtu-
ally gave him up on his promise to pay her the sum
OF 5000 year. The accused appealed from the de-
cson of the Court and gave bail 10 appear for trial
at the General Sessions, where wife No. intends
to prosecute him on q charge OF bgamy. After
the decision was given the ltigant parties

struck McElreavy in the face with her
parasol The compliment was returned by the
husband, who struck her on the side OF the head
with his fist, sending her spinning round the ROOM

Before Surrogate X. G. Hutchlngs.
The examination in the Pike will case was re-
pumed Yesterday before Surrogate Hutchinss' ana
attracted quite large audience.
Jonathan Laurence was the first witness. He
testified that he was acquainted with Mr.. Pike the
testator, for several years; had business relations
with him in the year 1871 had several converse
lions with him about real estate; he seemed to be
Deeble in body and mind; one occasion the testa-
Tor told him that his son had treated him unkindy;
called upon him at his house several times; his ap
pearance seemed greatly changed on those occa-
pOns; there was a great difference in his manner
he was less lively than usual; saw Mr.. Pike at the
Exchange Salesr0om; was in the habit OF going
there; his manner was peculiar then.
CrOss-examned-Mr. Pike said his family was I'M
kind to him; he complained that his son had
brought his wife into his house, and that he had
70 support her. he spoke about that several times,
and also referred to other matters; his converse
ton was mixed up and his mind seemed to be
wandering.
The further hearing in the case was then ad.
lOurned.
