Davenport, July 3.-Judge Bollinger

Blanche Meier Reuter- Mengel really is.
Court adjourned until this morning

Attorney Theophilus for the defend
ant. The Judge did decide that the
beautiful young> actress was not en-
titled to spend the money of George
Mengel, the aged and wealthy Daven-
port brewer, without living with him.
Judge Bollinger overruled Blanche's
petition for separate maintenance,
holding she had not proved desertion
for two years nor such cruel treatment
as would entitle her to decree of sep
arate maintenance.
The question Of whose wife the
plaintiff is, however, is still before the
court. The judge has reserved his
ruling upon the legality Of the mar
riage to Mengel until after hearing
further argument. Should he decide
that the plaintiff is Mengel's wife.
she would still have thu, right to pledge
his credit for necessaries and he could
be held for them. And her idea Of
necessaries is what already has made
the rich brewer vince. The point Of
the legality of the secret marriage was
argued by Judge Sharon all morning.

house moved. Some of the people re-
fused to have it moved, and took the
matter into the courts. The resolu-
ton had bearing on this removal, and
il is claimed that Mr.. Riker left the

he was pleaded with TO stay. but
turned the marble heart against the
rest of the board, he being chairman
of that body.
The matter was then taken In mana
by John A. l.. Bixby, a Well-to- 40
