However, Mayor Hylan has co6peratcd
with us in all matters where individual
patrolmen have been concerned.
"ln the event that any patrolmen
are indicted by the grand jury we will
put them at the head Of the calendar
and bring them to immediate trial"
Another phase Of the vice nvesti-
cation that will be given immediate
attention has to do with the case of
Thomas A. Dolan, detective from
headquarters, who was arraigned in
the Washington Heights police court
on Sunday Is result of an outing in
which taxicab, a wrecked restaurant
and two unnamed women played prom:-
ncnt parts.
An assault was charged to have been
made upon patrons Of the Unique res
taurant at 10th Street and Lenox Ave
nue., on Sunday night. Dolan was dis
charged Tuesday when none of the
forty witnesses would identify him as
the man who had been guilty Of "strong
arm" operations.
Jack Dolgoff, chauffeur, who made
the original complaint, was among those
who could not identify the detective.
1t was because of this fact that Dis
trict Attorney Swami asked Mr. Smith
to make a preliminary investigation
Of the case at once. Witnesses have
been summoned to the office of the
prosecutor to be questioned this after
noon.

WASHINGTON, March 10.-Pleas of
"little army" men to reduce military
expenses were rejected to-day by the
tablishment of 299, 900 enlisted me- and
1890 officers, after discarding three
proposals for a smaller force. The de-
cision, though not final was reached
by three to one vote, leading support
ers of the army reorganization bill to
believe that it virtually settled the
peace-time program.
In addition to authorizing q regular
army 100000 stronger than provided by
the national defence act of 1916, the
. House also accepted lesson of the
World War by adopting the principle
OF permitting the tactical organization
Of the army to be prescribed by the
President instead Of by law. Likewise,
1T approved of making. separate corps
of the air service, the chemical warfare
service and the finance department., but
refused to divorce the transportation
and the construction services from the
Quartermaster Department
Representative Dent, Alabama, rank
ing Democratic member Of the Military
Committee, opened the attack for a
smaller army. His amendment to fix
the maximum strength at 100000 men
and 14,200 officers was defeated, 70 to

After making a SPEEDY getaway in

Periscope ON Wife
In Divorce Tangle
Peepholes and Wiretapping
Also Employed by Bridge
port Man to Get Evidence
for His Counter Action
Special Dispatch to Ths Tribune

BRIDGEPORT, Conn, March TO-
Peepholes, periscopes, tapped telephone
wires and private detectives were used
by Walker F, Kupfer, 1t was brought
out today. in getting the evidence on
which he bases his suit for divorce
against Ruth Baker Kupfer. A divorce
action filed by Mrs. Kupfer is pending.
That brought by Mr.. Kupfer is being
heard in the Superior Court here be-
fore Alberto T. Roraback, who denied
appeals made by counsel for both
parties for n private hearing.
Mrs. Katherine Parks, Mr.. Kupfer's
sister. told how she kept watch at a
peephole drilled in the wall of Mrs.
Kupfer's room. She also told of tele-
phone tapping and the private detec-
tives and made use of a periscope in
taking observations of her sister-in
laws doings.
A private detective acted as elevator
runner in the Professional Building,
where a doctor has his office. Mrs
Parks said. She said that Mrs. Kupfer
always wore cotton underwear when
she was going to be around the house,
but when she was going to the office
building she put on silk and chiffon.
Il would take up my watch at the
reephole about o'clock in the morn
ing" Mrs. Parks testified, "and remain
there until Mrs. Kupfer left. l would
then go to the front porch and watch
her enter the Professional Building,
remaining upon the front porch until
she emerged. Sometimes I waited as
long as two hours. Then 1 would go
to the peephole and watch"
Mrs. Parks denied that she ever
read any Of her sister-in-law's core
sspondence, but said she frequently
found out the nature of the letters
Mrs. Kupfer wrote by examining her
blotter with mirror. She had with
her bulky package which she said
contained notes she had taken while
watching at the peephole. They were
not admitted in evidence.
Both Mrs. Parks and another sister
of Mr.. Kupfer, Mrs. Antoinettc NJ.
Staab, testified that in July, 1917. they
saw Mrs. Kupfer swallow some iodine.
When Mr.. Kupfer taxed his wife with
intidelity and asked how. long it had
been going on, Mrs. Parks said, her
response was, 1T was about the time
l tried to commit suicide think it
over"
Sheriff J. F. Maloney said that Mrs
kupfer did not deny the ALLEGATIONS
made by her husband June is, 1915
when they separated. but replied
That's what Kupfer gets for marrying
some one younger than himself"
