HINDU SUES BROTHERS
 IF AMERICAN WIFE; CLAIMS PERSECUTION

Fatha Mohamed, the Hindu who married pretty Furnia Fulks an Amer ican girl, yesterday brought suit against her brothers. J. E. Fullls and ". D. Fulks, for S25,000, charging malicious prosecuting.
 Mohamed claims that for more than a year and especially since the first of January his wife's relatives have 'wil- fully, maliciously and wrongfully con- spired for the purpose of intimidating, expressing, imprisoning and malicious ly prosecuting and prosecuting him"
 Mohamed, in his complaint filed by Walton and Bailey, sets forth the fact of his arrest in this county last May on a felony charge. He was arrested here and imprisoned in the county jail, the charge being that the Hindu had misrepresented Purnia Fulks' age in securing a license to marry her in Yuma county. He was alleged to have given her age as IS, while the com plaint alleged she was but Is years of age at the time. Mohamed asserts that while the case was dismissed in Yuma at the request of the defendant he has still been subjected to the un- lawful conspiracy which causes him great humiliation. Mohamed contends that the arrest and Imprisonment not only caused him keen mental suffering, but also greatly humiliated his wife.
