New York, Dec. 2I-"What il costs
to defend a separation suit in high
life" Is the title of a statement given
out at Mineola, /. l., today by coun-
sci for w. Gould Brokaw. whose wife
is suing him for separation with ali
mony of $50, 900 Il year. The tabulated
items follow:
Stenographer's minutes, $4,000.
Attendance of Witnesses. car fare
and board. $4,000.
Plaintiffs counsel, by order of
court, S,000.
For preparation and investigation
OF case. SIS. 900.
Counsel for defendant, 100000.
Total $4,000.
Il win show added John II. Nc
Intyre. Brokaw's lawyer, that Mr..
Brokaw's income Is not $4,000 q
year. He has been a generous spend
er. Il prince of hosts: he has never
engaged in any regular business, and
his income has dwindled greatly
Mr.. Brokaw did not take the stand
in his own defense today though he
was prepared for it. For half an hour
before Justice Putnam mounted the
bench the overweight husband paced
the gravel walk in front of the court
house, apparently rehearsing the tes-
timony he was expected to give, but
when court convened there was n
change of plans. Buffers, maids and
more of the many physicians en-
ploycd to tune the tangled nerves of
the alienated couple testified for the
husband.
For the first time since the trial
began Mrs. Brokaw was plainly out
Of countenance. For one thing, her
mother, Mrs. James a. Blair, is Sc
Vcrcly iii with pneumonia at West
chester, her health undermined by
the publicit~ OF the trial. For an
other the continued mention of cigar
cites and cocktails in the evidence
plainly irritated the plaintiff.
Sidney Woods. the butler, who
sworo yesterday that somebody dashed
| Mrs. Brokaw's maid. Miss See. with
a horsewhip and that Mrs. Brokaw
knew whom" testified today that he
usually mixed cocktails daily for Miss
Soc, who disappeared with them in
the direction of Mrs. Brokaw's room,
ola Olcnder, a maid, swore she had
served Mrs. Brpkaw with port wine
in her room. She testified in add
ton hat she had heard Mrs. Brokaw
| venture on mild profanity and one OF
her tasks was TO clean cigarette stubs
| out OF Mrs. Brokaw's bath room.
DR.. Robert pou testified he had
heard Mrs. Brokaw tell her husband
to 'go to he'll and hat she had np-
piled to him one of the epithets which
she complained in her testimony he
had applied to her. "a - liar"
