Boston. March l9.-Three New YORK
girls, Miss Louise Barber, Miss Frances

chaperoned by Mrs s NJ. Macintosh ar
rived here to-day on the freight steamer
Suruga. after a 3O.OOo-mile voyage as
"stewardesses." All four shipped at
New York on October % as members Il

The steamer left Manila on January

companion. The name of Miss Gerard,
the correspondent, was never mentioned
with that of Thomas.
The principal restraining influence
against a suit for divorce before this was
said to be Mrs. Samuel Thomas, mother
of Edward r. Thomas and widow OF
General Samuel Thomas, from whose
estate she has an income of $2j0,Q0O Il
year. Mrs. f. r. Thomas and her
mother-in-law always have been on the
best Of terms. However, Thomas would
not come to New York and enable his
wife TO bring him to court. nor would he
consent TO any financial arrangement
with her unless she met him in Paris.
While not IN as affiuent circumstances
as he used to be before the 1907 panic,
Thomas still has a good sized income
from the estate Of his father to indulge
his propensity for spending money free
". This income amounts to SlGOWO a
year.
Recently the Bowling Green Trust
Company obtained a garnishee order in
the Supreme Court against this income
on a judgment for SJO,732. Ten per cent
will be taken out OF his income until
this judgment is settled, but that re-
duces the $4,000 income by only SIG
600 a year. Besides, Mrs. Thomas, his
mother, has always been ready TO help
her son in a financial way.
If Mrs f. r. Thomas should ask and
receive alimony she will have no trouble
I'm collecting it here, for she, too, will
be able 70 garnishee the trust fund from
which Thomas receives his income.
In his more prosperous days Thomas
used TO own a stable of thoroughbreds
valued at S150OOO. They were sold At
sheriff's sale in 1908 for $4,000. In 1906
Thomas sent his father-in-law, William
Paca Lee who was treasurer Of the
Louisville Gas Company. fifty Sl,Wo
