south Dakota's Supreme Court De-
cides the Pollock Ca se.
The supreme court has affirmed the
decree of divorce granted at Sioux
Falls three years ago TO Edward +.
Pollock, son of the wealthy New York
merchant. This was one of the most
celebrated cases q heard at that
place, and attracted attention through
out the country. Pollock married one
Of his mothers servants and was turn
ed out of the house. During two years
OF married life two children were born.
Then the elder Pollock persuaded his
son to come to Sioux Falls and apply
for a divorce. Just before the trial
the wife, who had been ignorant of
his whereabouts and had been living
in AFFECT poverty, succeeded in reach
ing this city with her children. 1t was
in the dead Of winter, and they were
without food, money or seasonable
clothing. The greatest Indignation was
aroused here and kind hearted people
provided for them comfortably. while
lawyers volunteered to conduct the
case. The attendance ut the trial was
the largest ever known. and the senti-
ment was strong against the. plaintiff,
but the judge granted the decree.
though he awarded the wife $50 a
month perpetual alinIony. Pollock at
once married again and the wife OBJ
tanned in New York n judgment for
$4,000 from the elder Pollock for
alternating the affections of her hus-
band. this being afterwards upset. The
supreme court decides that the divorce
is valid and DEGREES that the alimony
shall be paid until the elder child be-
ome Of age. when ii shall be reduced
one-half. and shall end when the sec
Ond child reaches twentyone.
