MRS. CLARK, NOW
WEALTHY, STILL
WANTS A[|MONY
Judge Truax Holds, However,
That Her Former Hus-
band Is Not in Arrears.

Edith D. Clark has brought an acti N
before Justice Truax, IN the Supreme
Court, against her former husband,
Louis " Clark. for 81. ITO alleged arrears
of alimony up to September. She was
divorced in 1902 by decree which pro-
vided for $40 monthly aim ony for the
rest of her life, and the litigation re-
veals a remarkable agreement between
this APPARENTLY hostile pair following
her success in the divorce court.
BY this agreement Clark paid 5000 in
cash to his ex-wife. and agreed TO pay
$40 a month for the first year. 500
month the second year. and 80 on. add
ing $40 a month at the beginning of each
new year until 1t should reach the full
$40 as ordered by the decree.
To Stop II She Remarked.
There was special clause in the
agreement, however. which said the
payments would continue until the
death OF Mrs. Clark, or her remarriage
But attention is called by her lawyers
to the fact that the law providing that
almony payments should cease on the
remarriage OF the wife was not passed
until 1904. and therefore was not in ef-
feet when the Clarks entered into this
remarks able agreement.
The agreement expressly provided:
"Thi. clause is not exclusive of the
plaintiffs right to enforce the payment
of her alimony in any manner which
the law shall allow
Payments ceased with August. 1907.
and Mrs. Clark calculates that arrears
are now due of $50 each month from
September. 1907. to May, 1905. and 800
each for June, July and August. 1908.
under the agreement.
In opposition Mr.. Clark shows that
at the rate ordered by the decree, $3.50
per month"; he should have paid ,S,520
up to the time OF his wife's motion. and
that under the private agreement be-
tween him and his late wife he had
actually paid her $3.50.
Judge Truax Sides With Husband.
After looking the ground over. Jus
| tice TrraN concluded that the odd
agreement entered into after the final
decree had been granted was valid In
law, and he refused to declare Clark in
