DEAD HUSBAND IS
 WITNESS IN COURT
Family Spat Produces Skeleton in
 Kaufman Divorce

New York, June 17.-Mrs. Angela Kaufman, who sought to end her matrimonia troubles week ago by shooting herself, left the Knicker- locker hospital yesterday against the advice of physicians and attended the trial of the suit for annulment which Joseph Kaufman brought against her. Kaufman, president of a razor com uany, sued on the ground that his wife was still married to Jack Buckley when she married him.
 Mrs. Kaufman was pale and showed the effects of her suffering. Leo R. Brilles. her attorney, told the court his client tried to take her life when she heard a rumor that the annul- ment suit had been decided against Ter. The report was premature, as the case had not yet been tried.
 Says Husband Paid for Decree.
 Rather than live and be known as the former wife of Kaufman,' said the lawyer, "she tried to take her life. In death, at any rate, she felt she would be known as Mrs. Joseph Kaufman"
 Mrs. Kaufman divorced Buckley in Reno, but Kaufman said the decree was not valid in this state. T ob- tained the divorce in Reno," Mrs. Kaufman testified, simply as a mat ter of precaution. I believed Jack Buckley was dead. MT. Kaufman ad vised me to get the decree to be sure of my status. MT. Kaufman paid the expenses of the divorce suit and hired detectives to find trace of MT. Buckley. For five years I had heard nothing of MT. Buckley. His sister told me she had not seen him, and what else could I do but believe him dead?'
 ssDead Husband'' in Court.
 Her marriage to Buckley, Mrs. Kauf- ma said was the outgrOWth of a love affair that began in childhood. Their married life was not happy. They sep arated in 1905 and Buckley disap- peared The wife advertised in news papers throughout the country, but obtained no trace of her husband. Convinced that he was dead, she ac- cepted the proposal of marriage made by Kaufman, first going to Reno to get a divorce from Buckley. Not until her first spat with her second husband did Mrs. Kaufman learn that Buckley was still alive. Kaufman then threatened to sue for an annulment.
 Buckley, the supposed dead hus- band was in court yesterday to testify against his wife. He said he had by chance met Kaufman in this city.
 Kaufman said he had believed the Reno divorce legal and denied that lie had employed detectives to find Buck lev. He met Buckley two days ago.
 Justice Shearn reserved decision.

Note Being Examined

"The note is being examined by the British and French governments in consultation. The views of the French government have not yet been received in London, therefore 1t is impossible to make any public pronouncement upon the contents of the note.
 Meanwhile, it may be pointed out that the United States lay special stress on the necessity for expedition in dealing with neutral mails to oc- casion a minimum delay and to avoid inconvenience to American interests. This point in the mem morandum was communicated to the United States ambassador here April IA, explaining that the postal censors had perfected the organization of a separate de- partment to deal with such mails and in view of this improved organiza tion it is possible to assure the govern ment of the United States that in the absence of wholly exceptional cjrcunl- stances the total delay caused to or dinary correspondence of neutrais from the time the mails were unload ed from the ships carrying them to the time they were delivered by the censors to the British post office for transmission to their destination
 
 three to five days.
 The British government have not been content with this mere assur- ance but every day are attempting still further to perfect the organiza- tion of censorship and they believe that in the future American citizens will have less and less cause to con- plain of delays in the passage of their correspondence to neutral Flu rOpean countries.
 ''The British government wish par ticularly to emphasize a readiness to receive from American citizens in quiries regarding any particular de- layed or missing letter, together with particulars such as the date of the sailing of the ship on which the mails were carried, and in case of registered letters, the registered number on the package, in order that they may in quire into each case thoroughly and immediately avert misunderstanding and detect lapses in the organization where such have occurred
