N. M. HUBBARD
ABANDONS WIFE
CEDAR RAPIDS MAN INFATUATED
WITH ARTIST FoReETs FAMILY
-soNoF LATE JUDGE HUBBARD

Cedar Rapids, May 15.-N M. Hub
bard. Jr., bearer of proud name, the
son Of one of Iowa's most notable law
yers and politicians, himself an at
torney of skill and a young man of
ability, fine education and high es-
TEEN, has abandoned his good reputa-
tlon, MS future In his profession, and
cast aside his charming wife all for
the love Of another woman who enter
ed his life strangely, and who has
lnnuenced 1t even more strangely.
All Cedar Rapids is talking about
MI. Hubbard's extraordinary conduct,
only recently in abandoning his wife
and children and his aged mother here
and taking himself and his personal
belongings to Chicago to be near Alice
Cooper, an artist of that city, who
seems to have woven a spell about
him. Hubbard is the son of the late
Judge N. M. Hubbard, known through
out Iowa as keen corporation law
yer and shrewd politician, and he Is
also the principal heir to the Hubbard
estate of million dollars or more.
Enter the Woman.
Until four years ago, the time of
his fathers death, the life Of Hub
bard moved along happily in It's rela-
t1onsh1ps here. But then, while Miss
Cooper, who Is a sculptress, was max
Ing the death mask of Judge Hubbard
for which she had been engaged to
come from Chicago, the young man
became enamored of her. Miss Coop
er evidently reciprocated Hubbard 8
affections and in spite Of the many
things that should have kept him
faithfully to his home and to his op-
portunities here he established n
liaison with her.
Illicit Relations Become eknown.
The Illicit relations of the two were
noised about months ago In fact 1t
was generally understood here that
some time ago Miss Cooper was an
inmate Of maternity ward In one OF
the hospitals in Cedar Rapids. Subse.
quent to this neither made any secret
of their relations toward each other
and Hubbard has on numerous occa
sions sought to secure divorce from
his wife. He offered her half Of the
estate and ever more. but she refused
such an arrangement.
Mrs Hubbard has the deepest sym
pathy Of the people of Cedar Rapids
She Is charming woman, and hel
devotion to Mr. Hubbard's mother has
been most beautiful Mrs Hubbard
Sr.. has been an invalid for many
years. and she has had all the time
the devoted care OF her daughter-in
law, who refuses now to leave her.
Hubbard has severed all his con
nections here, and even his member
ship in the law firm founded by his
father has been terminated. He is a
man Of fine education, being gra
duate Of Annapolis and at one time
an officer In the navy.

not up to the Chardon standard. They
said that her habit Of adjusting her

Neither side has used peremptory

That the state does not want to have
men on the jury who are prejudiced is
shown by the fact that more than 81
per cent of those excused have beer
challenged by the state for having

ing formed an opinion the defense be
lieves that opinion is against the de
fendant. The state does not allow the

eussing the Union Pacif1c's announce
ment that total Of s111,o0o.00o Of new

This official did not overstate the
feeling in Washington concerning the
announcement of the new Hartman
issues. For some weeks there has
been much interest and concern as to
the financial turn which Mr.. Hartman
would make, by way OF caring for the
big commitments Of his system There
has been fear, too that whatever policy
was adopted would have e. bad effect
in the money market. These fears, it
is considered, have been in part al
ready realized. in the slump that fol-
owed announcement Of the Union Pa

when the issue is actually made, at the
middle of the year, 1t will more or less
complicate the conditions. always due

payments. If by that time the present
tions shall have been justified by con-

1t is feared that the underwriting syn

of the issues, and that this will tie
up enough money to cause small
