New York, Jan. THAT an action
absolute divorce has been brought b
Mrs. May w Brown against Albert Old
field Brown. a member OF several promi
nent clubs as we'll as OF the stock exc
change, and a well known Wall street
broker was news even TO some OF their
most intimate friends on New Years
morning.
Mrs. Brown, who IL daughter OF
George Arents, who until recently was
treasurer OF the American Tobacco com
pany and is now one OF its directors. has
returned to the parental residence, at No.
3s West Fifty seventh street. Consider
able testimony has already been taken
I'm the case, but all the proceedings have
been conducted with secrecy. That the
young couple have become involved In
disagreement has been kept from the
knowledge OF Mr.. Browns father Richard
Brown, a retired merchant who is now
seriously i'll.
Mr.. and Mrs. Brown were married about
eight years ago under what were con-
sidered the happiest OF surroundings and
the outside Social world had learned little
or nothing OF any domestic infelcities.
Through her lawyers. Mrs Brown had
the summons i'm her complaint issued by
Judge Scott in the supreme court and
served upon her husband on Nov. 1. The
husbands answer. which was a complete
denial TO all the allegations, was filed
on Nov. 90, and six days later by con-
sent OF both husband and wife, Judge
Scott appointed former Supreme Court
Judge Leslie W. Russell as referee to take
testimony i'm the case.
There have been two or three hearings
in Mr.. Russelrs office. at which witness
es have given their evidence, but the
referee has not completed his work and
until he does. there will be no report sub
mitted 10 the court.
IL am exceedingly sorry my case has
become public" Mrs. Brown said yes
terday. 1T was our desire and intention
to have nothing given publicity until the
matter was terminated. IL there is any
thing to be said would prefer TO have
my husband say It,"
"It is said that here have been mutual
accusations"
THAT Is not true" Mrs. Brown re-
piled. mo. there is but one action, and
that is mine, which brought against Mr..
Brown"
Mr.. Brown subsequently denied the
truth of that report when seen at his
office in the Broad exchange building.
"All can say is that the hearings have
been held before Judge Russell-but you
will have to see my lawyer, Mr.. Bowers. "
Until few weeks ago, or when there
