STOP GIRL TRIAL MARRIAGES
Check Put on Practice of Young
Women Living with Their Hus-
bands for Short Time.

New York. - Trial marriages by
young girls who, after living short
time with their husbands, sue for an
annulment on the ground they, were
under legal age at the time Of the
marriage, suffered setback when
Judge Greenbaum of the supreme
court dismissed the complaint of An
ME J. Kruger in her suit for an an
nulment Of her marriage to Henry
Kruger.
Justice Greenbaum decided that al
though the girl was married at the
age of II it was with the consent of
her parents, and she must remain
married unless she can show better
reasons for wanting the marriage an
nulled than that she was not yet IS
when she entered into the contract.
There have been so many marriages
among girls who afterward sued for
annulment on the ground they were
under 10 when married that the prac.
tice has come to be regarded as some.
thing of joke among lawyers. The
feminine experimenters with the law
revealed that it is possible for young
girls to enter into trial marriages, and
after short time have the contract
set aside
In his decision Justice Greenbaum
points out this plan in the laws. He
says that in view of the number OF
suits for annulment by young girls
on one pretext or another he was con.
strained to look into the law careful
ly, with the result that he denied the
Kruger complaint
But the fact remains that girl
who marries under the age Of 1S.
without the consent Of her parents,
may have the marriage set aside.

fourth street and Lexington avenue,
died in 1897, leaving a will in which
she gave her property in five equal
shares to her children, with the provi.
sion that if any Of her children died
leaving children of their own the par
ent's share was to go to the children,
but otherwise the share was to be d.
vided among Mrs. Cramsey's surviving
children.
One Of Mrs. Cramsey's children was
Benjamin F., who was married in 1877
to Ella harrington. The marriage was
bitterly opposed by the members Of
his family, but he lived with his wifs
for about three years and then left
her, giving up his son, ]. Edward
Cramsey. who was about a year old at
the time. The husband drifted so far
away from his wife and son that just
before he died in 1902, he had lost all
track Of them. Then 1t became neces-
sary to make some disposition Of Ben.

George @. Sterling was convinced
that Bentamin's son was living and
employed several persons to find him.
They found him living on little farm
in Dover, N. J., with his uncle, Charles
harrington. The agents OF George c..
Sterling traced the boy to this farm.
The person empowered to negotiate
with young Cramsey had no trouble
inducing him to take $500 for so sim,
pie thing as signing his name to o
piece OF paper to clear the title to
certain property and prevent the fore
closure Of mortgage. Cramsey was
so glad to get the $500 for his sigma
ture to what proved to be the deed to
his $4,000 property that he gave $50
Of 1t to the man who had brought it to
him. He used he money to put 8

to add to the farm equipment.
