STEVENS MARRIAGE AENULLED
Vice Chancellor Pttney Decides That
Law Marriages Are Legal.

Common Law Marriages Are Legal.
Vice Chancellor Pitney filed an opinion
this morning, in a Jersey City suit to
annul a marriage which has attracted
considerable interest among New Jersey
lawyers, because the suit hinged on the
recognition of the SO called common law
marriage" The Vice Chancellor has in
the suit of Patrolman William Stevens of
Lafayette, against his wife Katie, in
effect, decreed that the peculiar kind of
marital union SO common in New York
where it is legally recognized, is legal in
New Jersey.
Stevens brought suit for the annulment
of his marriage OH the ground that at the
time of the ceremony the woman was the
common law wife of another man. At
ceiior directed Stevens TO pay his wife $40
a month alimony. This he failed after
a while to pay, Lawyer G. G.. Matthews
made the application. Judge w. p.
Douglass opposed the motion, on the
ground that his client could not pay the
alinaony, as he had four chilren to sup
port. The Vice Chancellor decided that
Stevens must pay at the rate of SIS a
month from July Is.
Then the suit came to trial and Judge
Douglass made out a very strong case for
Stevens dwelling on the cohabitation of
Mrs. Stevens and her first husband, and
the repute thai they were man and wife.
In the opinion filed the Vice Chancellor
find for Stevens and annuis his mar
riage. This is the first case on record
in New Jersey where such an issue has
been met fairly and squarely.

FIRST GAME FOR JERSEY CITY.
Defeated the New Jersey A. Colleague
Organized and Officers Chosen.

The Jersey City and New Jersey Athletic
Clubs opened their season with an interesting
contest between teams Of ten last night on the
Jersey City Club alleys. 1t was a game in
which the rooters had an opportunity to work
and at times it was doubtful regarding the out
come. On the final frame it was nip and tuck,
the home team finally winning through Meyers
beautiful work at anchor. He had the highest
score, but Lewis, his opponent on the New
Jersey team, pushed him hard and was only ten
pins behind. The margin was sufficient. how
ever, to win, as only nine pins divided the
scores at the end. Neither team has struck it's
gait yet and the bowling was below the aver
age. Both beat the 1900 mark. The return
game will be rolled at the Bergen Point alleys.
