Aimee Croker, OF California, and sub
seqently, after two other marriages,
Mrs. jackson Gouraud will have TO wait
awhile longer for a decree Of divorce
from her fourth husband, Prince Alex

supplemental proof be submitted on two
Of Princess Miskinoff's exhibits in the
case, which, the court said, seemed to
be in different handwritings. The JUS

ville).-The finishing touches are row
being given to the "man-power bill,
providing for universal labor for all
able-boded Germans behind the 'front.'.
The exact details of the measure have
not been given out, but the newspapers
indicate it will apply to all classes,
rich and poor alike, affecting partic-
ularly the idle classes living on private
incomes and those engaged in activities
not connected with prosecuting the
war. which may be discontinued with
out injury TO the armies.
This form of compulsory service, 1t
is understood, will not apply directly
or specifically to women, but a con-
sistent campaign will be made to
utilize TO the utmost this reservoir OF
labor.
The measure will be submitted by
the government to the Bundesrat with
in a few days. The Reichstag, which
adjourned only last week, until Febru-
airy. will be reconvened TO act upon
the bill as soon as the Bundesrat shall
have approved il. All indications point
to its speedy passage.

Gregory Picks Special
Aid to Defend r. K. Suit
lFrom The Tribuns BurerI.l

Washington, Nov. 15.-Attorney Gen
eral Gregory announced to-day the ap-
pointment Of Frank Hagerman, Of Kan
sas CITY, Mo-, as special counsel for
the defence of suits by the railroads
against the constitutionality of the
Adamson law. Assistant Attorney Cen
eral Underwood will head the defence.
II was declared that the Department OF
Justice would take direct charge OF the
suits and would make defences IN as
many cases as necessary.
II Is not known by the department
officials how many OF the suits filed by
the railroad companies it will be called
on 70 defend, as no move has been made
BY the railroad executives to concen-
trate on one or two test cases. IL this
can be decided on, It Is pointed out,
the case can be got before the Su-
preme Court and decided with much
less difficulty.
On the other hand, II is feared that
tome of the railroads may not be sat
isfed TO rest their chances on test
case. Their executives may believe
their own legal departments would
have n better chance Of overturning the
law in the lower courts than would the

The department Is ready, however. 1t
Is asserted, TO make the fight to uphold
the law In every case the railroads may
begin, though 70 do so it may be nee
essary to postpone many of the cases
for long time.
The fact that it will not be known
definitely whether the law is constitu-
tional or not, it is declared, will retard
the proposed additional legislation on
the labor question. Always assured Of
a rocky path, this legislation is now
opposed by the argument that until the

assured, there Is no use designing the

srman, of Kansas City, Mo-, has been

$1,000 Germans Released
from Mills by Belgians

Germany's fighting forces have been
increased by 5000 men, whose places
in munitions plants have been filed by
Belgians forced to leave their homes,
Henri La Fontaine, Socialist Senator of
Brussels, Belgium, said last night after
a lecture at the Social Study Club, 854
Flatbush Avenue, Brooklyn.
"The stories of the enslaving Of the
Belgians by the Germans published in
the American press have not been ex-
aggerated." he added. Letters have
received recently substantiate the
charge that Germany is supplanting
its native workers in the munitions
factories by pelCians, who, If they re-
fuse 10 go, will be left TO starve.
Germany is again violating the
agreement Of the Hague tribunal. as II
did when it invaded neutral Belgium,

.SLEUTH GREETED
BY WOMAN'S FIST
Wigs, Whiskers, Reticule
and Foreigner All in
Pier Fight

Shortly after the French liner Chi
cago locked at Pier 81 yesterday, a
heavily yelled woman, carrying a long
retcule, walked slowly down the gang
plank. As she was about to step to the
dock a tall, gaunt foreigner shouted
and waved red steamer rug, which
he had until then worn draped over
his shoulders. At the signal long
shoreman, remarkable for clean jump
ers. rushed forward and attempted 10
seize the reticule from the woman's
grasp. Instead of success ne net a
healthy right swing in the face.
Somewhat taken aback he again at
tempted to gam possession of the retl-
Guile. but this time he received an
uppereut and a left hook Simultaneous
~ from Edward Mallon and John Kelly,
pier detectives, which greatly altered
his appearance. His curly brown hair
was knocked of with his raklsh soft
hat and his whiskers slid around under
hiG left ear.
Mallon demanded to know the iden-
tity of the individual in masquerade,
lish, "Please, I'm a detective, seeking
to restore 20 my client 10000 francs
which that woman-his wife-has in
her pockstbook." Then the detective"
disappeared, carrying his wig.
The gaunt foreigner with the steamer
rug approached, and with tears in his
eyes besought the pier detectives TO
arrest his wife and regain his prop
erty He was informed that that was
impossible without warrant, and
therefore decided to arrest her himself.
Three hours later in crowded Jeffer-
son Market court the man gave his
name as Emile Lorenzo Raggio, of the
Hotel Roversi. 20 West Twenty-sev-
enth Street By means of an Italian
interpreter he charged his wife with
secreting property belonging to him.
Three months ago, Raggio testified,
he gave his wife, Antoinette, a power
of attorney to go to Genoa to sell a
house and property. He said his wife
tried TO keep him from knowing on
what ship she would return with tho
proceeds of the sale, and, therefore,
he suspected that she did not intend
to give him the $4,000 francs. Through
a friend ne learned that she had sailed
on the Chicago, and for the last week
had waited with his private detective"
on the French Line dock for her ar
rival.
Mrs. Raggio denied the charge, say
ing her husband had given her n deed
of gift to the property, and that she
had gone abroad to sell it in her own
name. She had left the proceeds of
the sale with friend in France, she
added.
Magistrate Handy adjourned exam
nation until November II, to give Mrs.
Raggio time to produce deed Of gift,
and fixed bail at $500.
