The Brooklyn Democratic Club. which was

ward M. Shepard and has been more or less
conspicuous ever since In the political
arena, held its annual election at POI Mon
tague street last night. The announcement
q few days ago that the supporters and
opponents Of William r. Hearst, who was
indorsed by the club by a very slim ma
jority in the recent campaign, would have a
scrap over the election Of officers, brought
over 100 Of the members together, which
Is unusually large.
There were three tickets In tho Geld. the
respective candidates for president being
Daniel Moynahan, the present president;
Charles T. Hoagland and James T. o'Nein.
The ticket headed by Moynahan was known
az the regular ticket, that by Hoagland ass
that Of the anti-Hearstites and the O'Neia
as the harmony ticket. II developed PRIOR
to the voting that Hearst's political Tor
tunes were in no way involved In the oon-
test and that the three tickets had been
put up mainly for the purpose Of incrsss-
ing an interest in the election and tndoen-
tally aiding the treasury.
The Moynahan ticket won out by Q vote
OF ~ to % for Hoagland and . Tor ONeLi
Comptroller Herman A. Metz was on the

be allowed to manage the affairs in their
own localities. That, Mr.. Shepard main
tanned. had been the dominant notion OF
the Democratic party. 1t was in his opinion
the duty of the party. to still work Tor the
preservation Of State lines and nome rule.

Daniel Moynahan; vice-presidents, Harring-
ton Putnam, Herman A.. Metz, A. H. East

DIDN'T PAY HIS WEDDING BILLS,
Reason Why Mrs. Howe Left Her Husband
whom She IL Suing for Divorce.

Application was made TO Supreme Court
Justice Kelly in Brooklyn yesterday for
the appointment OF a referee to take testi-
mony in the suit brought by Emma G. r.
Howe against Alfred Woodoock Howe Tor
an absolute divorce. Her counsel said
that as there was so much publicity at
tending the wedding and publicity attend
ing her husbands appearance in court
concerning the wedding she suffered men
tally and physically, and feared that she
would also suffer mentally and physically
should the trial be in public.
People who bring divorces must ex-
pect publicity" said Justice Kelly. He
also said that he believed that divorces
should be tried in open court instead OF
behind closed doors. Then he denied the
motion for the appointment OF a referee.
The plaintiff before her marriage was
Emma Carolyn Reichman, daughter OF
George W. Reichman Of 7S4 Putnam ave-
nue.. The defendant lives with his parents
at l7e Fennimore street, Flatbush. The
couple were married at the Church OF the
Messiah in Greene avenue, Brooklyn, on
April 81, 1904. They went to live with
the defendants parents in Flatbush and
remained there some time.
The plaintiff alleges that in March last
she was shocked mentally and physically
by learning that her husband had been
summoned to appear before the trustees
Of the Church of the Messiah to explain
why he had failed TO pay $3.50, the amount
Of the bill for the choir, music and Incl
dentals necessary and ordered by him'for
the wedding. Then she left him and re-
turned to her fathers home, where she
has since lived.
She alleges that in May and July last she
ascertained that Howe and a woman whom
she does not kno registered as man and
wife in the Park Hotel at Port Chester,
n. Y. Her husband subsequently was
summoned in the Gates avenue court,
where Judgment was obtained against
him by the trustees Of the church and also
by the florist who had furnished the flowers
! for the wedding, but who never had been
I paid. =,
At the time Howe declared that he could
not pay the bills. He was subsequently
arraiDned in the Adams street police court
regarding certain checks which he had
passed but which were returned marked
mo account" His wife at the time said
that she could no longer live with a man
who had so little principle that he. could
not pay for the flowers or other incldentalf
of a wedding. She said she left him the
minute she found out that he had failed
to paw these proper bills.

Police Fail TO Prod uce Evidence That She
Ran a DisOrderly Resort.

Mary Reardon, known as Mollie. was
discharged in the West Side police court
vest erday, after being arraigned on a
charge OF keeping a d~isorderly house at

istrate Baker warrants calling for the ar
rest of George Halman, the manager;
Henry A. LentZ, the barkeeper, and Mary
Reardon.

disorderlv house, and Lentz with violating
the excise law.

aid the only evidence they had was that
