| Special DisDatch The Chicago Tribune
| NEW York, May lit is said that perfect
harmony does not prevail in the active me1n-
bership of 'the Cooperative Dress Associa-
tion, Limited" recently organized here with
a great flourish of trumpets. Anthony Pull
brook. the organizing secretary Of the Asso-
citation, resigned his Office this week, and to-
| day his name appears on the list of passen-
| gers booked for Liverpool OIL the steamship
City of Richmond. During the day 1t became
known that writs Of attachment against his
money had been procured from Judge Dono-
hue by Miss Kate Field, the leading spirit Of
the Cooperative Dress Association. The writs
! were issued in suit which Miss Field has
instituted to recover certain sum alleged to
be due her by Pullbrook. The ground on
which the writs were issued was that AIr.
Pullbrook was i nonresident, and was about
to leave the country. In the affidavit made
by
MISS FIELD,
she says that, iii February last, Pullbrook
agreed to organize the Cooperative Dress
Association, to procure subscriptions to its
capital funds, and to accept $4,000 In pay
nlent of his expenses and services. He then,
she alleges, made Il contract with her, agree
ing to pay her, in return for her assistance to
him, one-Ealf Of his profits Of the
$4,000 compensation. She asserts that these
profits amounted to SG43G.5l, of which
S3,2lS25 were rightly due her under their
contract She says she has received only
SG50,si, leaving balance due her of S2,579.::y.
The parties having tl1e moneys of Pullbrook
iii their possession, on whom the writs were
served, were Miss Field herself, James II.
Drake 6 Co., and f. VI. pippey. The amount
attached does not equal the amount of Miss
Fields claim. Miss Field was asked to give
THE ORIGIN OF HER CONTRACT
with Pullbrook to-day. She declined, say
ing: Il will not say single word about the
matter till it comes up in Court, unless, of
course, am compelled to answer any attack
made through the publications. It is pri-
vate affair, and is none Of the public's con-
cern. It has no bearing on the Cooperative
Dress Association, its past, present, or ftl-
tuEe. But let ME just say that am utterly
dissn5ted with human nature, and if ever
undertake again to interest myself in the
affairs OF anybody but myself, why hope

Mr.: Pullbrook has written letter con-
cerning his resignation, in which lie
says he found so little faith in
the undertaking when he reached this city
that then Miss Field declined to associate
