A WIFE SUING HEB HUsBAND-A case
OF 10 little interest, because of its peculiar
nature, was tried yesterday in the Marine
Court before Judge Sheridan and q jury,
when the following facts were ELECTED. The
suit was brought by Eugene A. Kircher TO
recover from her husband, Charles KIrcher,
S1iJ32, which she ALLEGES he collected as rent
OF her Individual property while acting as
ner agent, and which ne refused to pay over
to her. 1t appeared that until a short time
ago the pair lived happily together, the hus-
band being engaged In the real estate busi-
ness. During this time he purchased several
pieces of property in the name OF his wife,
which are In all valued at about 800 COO.
II money with which these purchases
were made, he claims, came almost entirely
from him, while the wife, on the other side
alleges that part OF IL was her own, includ-
ing that from which the property was bought
testimony showed that since the purchase
the property had always been managed by
the hus band, who had also betrayed all OF
the expenses of keeping 1t In repair. Some
time since he transferred some property on
staten Island, from which q suit resulted,
and In which an order of arrest was issued
against Kircher. His wife furnished bail,
but subsequently surrendered him, as he
alleges, for the purpose of getting him be-
hind the bars OF Ludlow-street Jail. In order
that She might bestow her affections upon
another man than himself. He also claims
that she desired TO get posses ion of all his
property. Much amusement was created in
and about the court by the case, and Kircher
words on the City Hall steps, abusing one
another shamefully. The jury, after some
elaboration. gave verdict In favor OF the
husband.-lN n I6n,es, 14th.
