yorce, Tells of Gard Parties
and Drinking,
Special to the Evening Star.


JERSEY CITY, Feb. 19.-Before
Vice Chancellor Backes in the Court
of Chancery here today the hearing
was resumed into the divorce pro-
ceedings brought by Dr. Charles D.
Cropsey, of Rutherford. against his
wife, who was formerly Miss Eva
Sloan, of this city.
DR.. Cropseys testimony brought
out the fact that he objected to his
wife's drinking and playing cards
with Dr. Edward Du Baum, of Pas
saic who committed suicide six
months ago, when he learned he had
been named by DR.. Cropsey in an
alienation suit.
DR.. Cropsey on the witness stand
told of card parties, attended by Mrs
Cropsey, DR. De Baum and Mr.. and
Mrs. Jones Highballs, he said, were
the favorite beverages at these af
fairs, which were held In the Cropsey
home.
Then one evening in May, 1918, the
witness said, he found the house in
darkness. Out of the library came
Mrs. Cropsey and DR.. De Baum.
What are you doing here with my
wife?" he asked DR.. De Baum.
Mrs. Cropsey answered quickly: II
had pain in my neck and he was
massa ging it with the electric vibra
tor"
."Did you ever hear of a doctor
Using a vibrator at night in dark
room?" Cropsey's lawyer asked.
II never did" was the emphatic
answer.
The eventful automobile trip took
place on July 26, 1912 when DR.. De
Baum and Mrs. Cropsey went to Cul-
ver's Lake to spend the week end at
the house of Mrs. Albert Thompson.
Mrs. Thompson on the stand said the
pair had arrived Friday afternoon
and departed early Saturday after
noon. They wanted to remain long
er, but she discouraged them.
1t takes about three hours to drive
from CulVer's Lake to Rutherford.
At 1 o'clock Sunday morning the
telephone bell rang III DR.. Cropsey's
office and his wife informed him the
machine had started.
Mrs. Cropsey got home at 8 o'clock
| Sunday morning Her husband asked
| her where she had spent the night.
! She told him that she had slept in
| the car and DR.. De Baum on the run
ming board. Then DR.. Cropsey re-
marked: TOO thin" His wife's an
swer. he says. was. well. that's all
the explanation you'll get from me. -
DR.. Cropsey was subjected to a rigid
cross-eXamination by Merritt Lane,
counsel for Mrs. Cropsey.
Has your wife asked you to forgive
and forset?''
| 'tShe did, but I refused"
| Robert Johnson, a Rutherford tailor,
| testified that he had seen Mrs. Crop
sey kiss q man while she was walking
| with him up the steps from the tube
TO the Erie station in Jersey City
| He was unable TO Identify DR.. De
Baum as the man when photographs
were shown 10 him.
Anthony Cudinell, of Roselle Park
who was night clerk at the Berkeley
Hotel, in Roselle Park also testified
Mrs. Cropsey has filed cross suit
for separate maintenance on the
ground that her husband neglected
her.
DR.. Cropsey left his wife on Jul,
%, 1918. The house which he bull
when they were first married is on,
of the finest in Rutherford. Mrs
Cropsey is still living in it. The ply.
sician has been paying her $50 q weel

town is on the verge of disruption.
It win be remembered that the local
Democratic committee was in favor

saying that "outside influence" had
been brought to bear in favor of
Terrell and he later made visit to
Washington to see II the congressman
wouldn't change his mind. He was
ebdurats, however, and remained that
way. as the appointment Of Terrell
shows.
There are only two members Of the
local committee in favor Of the ap-
pointnent of Terrell One is Terrell

IMPORTANT DECISION
cANoNIcAL PROCESS PREscRlR-
ED BY THE "MAxlMA cURA"
DOES NOT APPLY TO "REc-
TORS" IN THE UNITED STATES.

A most important decision has been
rendered by the Sacred Consistorial
Congregation in reference to priests
holding the position Of removable
rectors in the United States.
In replying to aquestion which had
been laid before the Cardinals COM
posing this congregation whether
the canonicaI process provided for
and laid down in the decree "Maxina
Cura," which was issued in the year
1911, is necessary in the case of rec
tors defined by the Third Plenary
Council of Baltimore as removable"
1t says: 'eThe answer is in the neg
ative.' Removable rectors' are
still removable at the pleasure of the
Bishop; but the Gonsistorial Congre-
cation recommends a strict adher-
ence to the admonition of the Third
Council of Baltimore on the subject,
and advises Bishops not to exercise
this power unless for grave reasons.
1t is the impression in Rome that a
like decision of the Consistorial Con-
gregation in regard to a similar ques-
ton respecting priests in England and
Scotland and in Australia will soon
be rendered.

OF ST. PAUL COUNCIL, KNIGHTS
OF COLUMBUS.

The Columbian Mortgage and Loan
Company of st. Paul, Mimi, was or
ganized and incorporated last month
by members of ST. Paul Council,
Knights of Columbus, for the purpose
of affording investors who can spare
only small monthly amounts from
their earnings to obtain larger returns
saving institution without lessening
in the least the security and protec-
tion against loss afforded by the old
time business concerns. In order to
do this, the company proposes to pool
the monthly contributions of a large
number of individuals and invest the
aggregate in first-class securities. To
this end, the company issues it's capi-
tai stock in series, the shares being
for 500 each, payable at the rate of
one per cent month. If the earn
ings be allowed to accumulate the
stock will be fully paid for at the
end of "a months. If the stockholder
draws the annual dividend, the stock
will be fully paid up when 100 month
ly payments are made.
The profits of this company go en-
tirely to the stockholders as the di-
rectors give their time without COM
pensation The first series of stock
was for $4,000 and this amount has
been fully subscribed for already.
The officers of the company are: Ed
ward T. Foley, President; A. j.
Schmitz, Vice-President; Henry Kali
seheuer, Treasurer; and John j.

While the officers and directors are
members of the st. Paul Council, the
company has no connection with the
Knights of Columbus, but is a non
sectarian business organization which
will sell its stock to anyone desiring
to invest. 1t is the ambition of the
officers and directors. to build up a
strong financial concern for the bene-
fit of all who are fortunate enough
to secure some of its stock.
