ed and n Broken Temperance Pledge IL
Not worth $4,000 Year AIimony.
Young Mrs. Josephine NJ. Mcbride was
put back yesterday by tho General Term OF the
Supreme Court Just where she was three years
ago. The Court reversed the judgment OF
Judge Barrett, by which Mrs. Mcbride obtain
ed a limited divorce from her husband. Robert
7. Mcbride. the tea merchant, and an allow
ance Of $4,000 year.
This Is practically the first victory scored By
the husband In a litigation which has been be-
foro the Supreme Court over three years. He
has been Obliged most OF this time to pay his
vito the alimony. At thelast trial OF tho case
before jury-there have been two such trials
the findings were somewhat In his favor but
Judge Barrett at Special Term upset them
and gave judgment for Mrs. Mcbride. At that
time he expressed himself in favor OF the trial
OF such actions at the Special Term and not
before jury While agreeing with Judge
Barrett as to the inutity Of jury trials In these
cases, Presiding Justice Van Brunt, who writes
the opinion OF the General Fern docs not
think the evidence justified decree in favor
OF the wife. and therefore reverses 1t. ordering
q new trial. The Court says:
The defendant at times acted shamefully toward his
vile, and treated her IN manner which was wholly
un!asiinablo II IS further apparent that incidonts
the She., degree in order to make out case q cruel
lnhnmhn treatment The exposure OF the pistol
which so much has been made, undoubtedly an act
OF care'essnoss upon the part OF the defendant and
utterly unjuAhaoe; but there is not the slightest
Ticnn that was accompanied by any threats that
the plaintiff had any Idea that she was placed in any
DANGER
Judge Van Brunt says that the facts regard.
Ing the use of, the poker have been perverted
in u marked degree. lie says there was an
mnIqstifable exhibition Of temper on Nc
Bride part but there were no threats: and the
plRintilr knew she WAS in no danger Of injury.
McBride's outbursts may have been due to In
temperance but there 10 no evidence that
Mrs Mcbride was In fear OF him.
On the contrary the fact thGt upon one oc-
cason, when the defendant had been drinking,
he stayed IN the park for a considerable time
within sight of his house in order to get sober
before going in. showed. that he had lively
perception of the kind OF reception which
would await him did he present himself In that
condition: and tho interview which took place
after such presentation resulted In the only
act Of actual Violence which is attempted to be
proved"
Judge Van Brpnt say, that the breaking OF q
temperance pledge by Mcbride was the actual
cause OF the separation and Is not a statutory
cause for legal separation. 1t is his opinion
thai the entire case should be tried before a
Judge. who would then have an opportunity to
observe the manner OF the witnesses. Judges
Brady and Daniels concur.
