MRS. LAUTERBACH SUED
Counsel Who Secured Her Dl.
vorCe Want $1,423.
THEIR BILL WAS $500
Defendants Lawyer Declares
They Did Not Work for His
Clients Best Interests.

Mrs. Amanda F. Lauterbach. who OBJ
tanned divorce from her husband. Ed
ward Lauterbach. the lawyer, was in the
City Court yesterday as defendant in a
SUR brought 10 compel her to pay sl.423,
a remainder which. It is alleged, is due
on the bill for legal expenses in the di-
vorce suit. Her attorneys in that action
were former Surrogate Rastus s. Ransom
and Samuel II. Wandell. who assigned
the claim TO Walter NJ McWhinney, a
court stenogra pher, who appears as the
actual plaintiff in the suit
While Mr.. Ransom was on the witness
stand, Leslie j. Tompkins counsel for
Mrs. Lauterbach in the present suit, in
timated that the former Surrogate had
played into the hands OF Mr.. Lauterbach
in the divorce suit. Mr.. Ransom angrily
remarked III you will keep your remarks
until court adjourns we will settle them"
II developed at the trial yesterday that
the first complaint filed by Mrs. Lauter-
bach against her husband In which the CO.
respondent was mentioned had been with
drawn by her two lawyers and a complaint
filed which did not mention the woman
in the case. Mrs. Lauterbach thought
that she should receive $4,000 as perma-
nent alimony, but her lawyers told her
that such an amount could not be OBJ
tanned. and finally $500 was paid by Mr.
Lauterbach in lieu OF all further alimony
Mr.. Tomkins said that he had reason
to believe that the first complaint in the
dfyorce euit wqs wfthdra wn and q new
one substituted at the request OF Mr.
Lauterbach. Charles lie Barber. attor-
ney for McWhinney, the plaintiff in the
suit against Mrs. Lsuterbach said that
at the time OF the divorce suit Mrs. Lau-
terbach was involved in litigation with
her daughters over an accounting OF
their property and that IT was agreed
counsel fees or slimony. and that under
the circumstances Mr.. Ransom and Mr..
Wandell had done we'll in getting the
$500 from Mr.. Lsuterbach
In combating the statement OF oppos-
ing counsel Mr.. lie Barber said he would
prove by expert witnesses that the fees
Of the two lawyers were not too high.
The bill Of Mr.. Wandell was $4,000 and
that Of Mr.. Ransom $4,000. the two to-
gether eoualling the amount received by
Mrs. Lauterbach from her husband in
final settlement
Several letters written by Mrs Lauter-
bach TO Judge Ransom were placed in
evidence One OF these said that Mr..
