Interests 20 satisfy = Judgment.
Mrs. Leslie Carter's lawyers announced
yesterday that besides the suit to recover
Sal, 100 which their client brought against
Miss Norma L.. Munro on Thursday, a
second action will be begun against Miss
Munro to recover certain other valuable
property belonging to Mrs. Carter which
Miss Munro is believed to have in her
possession.
At the same time attorneys representing
Mrs. Robert Osborn announced hat to-day
they will advertise a Sheriff's sale Of all
Miss Munro's real estate which they can
find in this county TO settle a Judgment
entered against her in the Supreme Court
on April "a Of this year.
Andrew r. McLaren OF % William street,
who is Mrs. Carter's attorney in the action
brought on Thursday and who will file the
second suit against Miss Munro, said yes
terdsy that the troubles Of Miss Munro
had just begun. He thought that when the
cases against her are all in she may linger
for an indefinite time in Paris, where she
is reported to be at the present time.
The discrepancy between the total
schedule OF Mrs. Carter's claims against
Norma Munro and the amount named in
the suit begun on Thursday can be ex-
planned in this way said Mr.. McLaren
yesterday. The suit already filed covers
only such points as may be covered in a
suit on contract. We will shortly COM
mence a second action for conversion Of
property, which will cover all the remainder
Of Miss Munro's Indebtedness to Mrs. Carter,
totalling in all about 357 300
Mrs. Carter's lawyer then explained the
case OF Dimples, the Boston terrier, whose
purchase price of $500 is scheduled in
the list of debts claimed by Mrs. Carter
against Miss Munro.
Miss Munro wanted to give Mrs. Carter
a little present, so she bought this dog
from a man in Washington. She sent the
owner of the dog a check, but shortly the
bank returned the check with N. O. written
across its face. Mrs. Carter learned that
Miss Munro's check had not been honored,
so she gave her friend $500 to pAce to her
credit in the bank upor'which the check
was dTawn.
1T seems that somehow OF other this sum
did not find its way to the bank, for when
a second check was sent to the owner OF
the Boston bull pup it, too, was returned
with the stamp No Good on il. SO Mrs.
Carter paid for the gift Miss MInro made
TO her, and still is out $500
Mrs. Csrter's lawyer was reminded that
Henry Bogert Clark, attorney for Miss
Munro, said that he had the record Of pay
ment having been made by Miss Munro
for the dog Dimples in his desk.
Yes" replied the attorney, Il believe
that the Washington dog owner sued or
threatened suit. and that he al last got his
money. hut his receipt does not prove that
Mrs. Carter did not pay for her own gift
originally
Mr.. McLaren then explained that the
tens cited in the schedule as dog collar
pearls, three little rings, pearl bracelet
flower bills and cost Of automobiles rep
resented expenditures Miss Munro had
made with Mrs. Carriers money while the
two we're boon companions.
As TO those gifts 20 MIR. Belasco, Tunis
Dean and others, said Mr.. McLaren, why
those we're little presents made jointly by
Mrs. Carter and Miss Munro. Mrs. Carter
always gave all the money, expecting that
her friend would make good half Of the
cost Of the ariou articles. But she never
did.
Now we come down to the items, Re
plevin action against Mrs. Osborn, 81. 500,
and Retainer for Mr.. Webb When Miss
Munro decided to institute replevin action
against her former friend Mrs. Osborn,
Mrs. Carter put up the 81 500 for the neces-
sary bond. and Mrs. Carter advanced the
money Tor Mr.. Webb's retaining fee as
Miss Munro's lawyer. That was more
money she loaned Miss Munro which never
was repaid.
The board Of servants which appears
in the schedule of Miss Munro's indebted
ness, the item covering gifts to servants
and the large item embracing clothing;
doctors and necessaries, all are lodged
against Miss Munro as being her share
in the household expenses incurred when
Mrs. Carter and she were keeping house
together in Fifty-ninth street. Mrs. Carter
always paid the bills with the understand
ing that her chum would settle her share.
which she never did
Mrs. CaTter's representative was asked
whv Mrs. Carter had never attempted to
reIlevin the automobile which she claims
a. hers but which Miss Munro il supposed
10 hold. Miss Munro's attorney was quoted
as having said that if the machine was
really Mrs. Carriers she should have as
sured her ownership ~ replevining it.
That's just what she tried TO do, replied
Mr.. McLaren, but she couldn't, because
Miss Munro had taken the automobile TO
Europe with her. We got out a writ OF
replevin for Mr.. Carriers automobile on
October 10. A jersey Sheriff went down
10 Monmouth Beach TO serve the writ on
the dav after, but he war told by the ser
wants that Miss Munro had packed up the
machine and shipped il to Europe in adj
vance Of her departure"
Mr.. McI.aren had a record Of the transfer
of property Miss Munro made to her mother
before she left for Europe. The deed was
signed on July II, he said, but the transfer
was not made public until November II,
after Miss Munro had sailed.
Mr.. Clark, Miss MunrO's attorney, has
admitted To US that Mrs. Carter paid for
the car. continued McLaren. -and We have
the receipted bill in our possession. Fur
! thermore, when we went to Mr.. Clark sew
