Kept Silent to Avoid
Quarreling With Wife
James G. Reynolds Admits He
Chasiised Daughter for
Secret Marriage

James c. Reynolds, part owner of the
Mercantile Lunch Company, which oper-
ates q chain of downtown lunchrooms,
yesterday filed an answer to the suit for
separation brought against him two
weeks ago by Mrs. Margaret Reynolds.
Mrs. Reynolds asked for decree on the
ground of alleged acts of cruelty and
her husbands alleged failure to provide
properly for his wife and children.
One of the acts cited by Mrs. Reynolds
was her husbands long "unbearable
silence resulting in her mental suffer-
ing and torture Mr.. Reynolds ad-
mtted yesterday that he maintained
long periods of silence Gin order to pre-
portunity to quarrel with him." An
other act cited by the plaintiff was her
husbands physical mistreatment of their
daughter, now Mrs. Marguerite Reynolds
Warren, when he learned that she been
married secrete!y.
Regarding his alleged cruelty to this
daughter, Mr.. Reynolds, in his answer,
says:
"She displeased the defendant because
she married in secret, instead of having
notified the defendant, her father, and
asked his consent beforehand, and also
because she was married by justice of
the peace instead of by a religious serv-
ice in the Catholic Church, to which de-
PENDANT and his daughter belong"
Reynolds admits that he chastised his
daughter and that he took her suitcase
from her and destroyed inexpensive ar
tices of clothing and jewelry." In doing
this, he declares, che acted in a sincere
motive in his idea that he was doing
right in trying to break UP q marriage
wrongfully contracted"

Mystery Unsolved
I'm Detention of
Cabin Passengers
Shipping Men Believe Error
Has Been Made i'm Hold
ing La Savoie's Visitors;
Fear for Incoming Liners

Speculation was rife along shipping
Row yesterday as to the reason and out
come of the detention overnight of
cabin passengers of La Savoie, of the
French Line, whichd ocked mere on Mon
day. Most of the passengers we're per-
nitted to land yesterday morning. Out
of eightyfour second cabin passengers,
fourteen were detained. OF the latter
number ten were Poles and were not
allowed to enter the country because
the immigration quota for that country
for July already has been exceeded.
Translantic steamship officials ex-
pressed surprise and Indignation ut
the action of the immigra ton authori-
ties in OBTAINING the passengers. They
were unit in declaring that they
could not understand the reason for the
arbitrary action on the part of the
government officials.
Officers of the International Mcr-
camille Marine Company in discussing
the action expressed grave apprehen-
sion as to the fate of some of the first
and second class passengers on the
olympic, which is due to dock to- day.
AT the office Of the White Star Line
the following statement was given out:
"All we know is that the American
and British citizens on board the Olym-
pic will be allowed to land. The dis
position of the other cabin passengers
will not be known until we hear from
the immigration authorities in Wash
ington tomorrow. There are 673 first
class, ASP second class and 342 third
class or Storage passengers on the
vessel"
1t was the consensus of opinion
among shipping men that grave mis-
take was made in OBTAINING the first
cabin passengers on La Savoie, par
ticularly when they were so we'll known
internationally. This feeling was in
tensifed when no information could be
obtained from the immigration officials
here explaining their action. They
seemed as much in the dark as the
steamship officials. The law explicitly
states that aliens coming here as tour
lists or temporarily for business or
pleasure" were exempt.
A ruling is expected from Washing
ton to-day affecting cabin passengers
coming into American ports under the
above heads, as recurrence of the cpl
sode of La Savoie, it was said, might
lead to reprisals by other nations.

Powder Harming Noses
OF Women, Expert Finds
Applied Hurriedly, 1t Flies Up
Nostrils. Bringing Affection
of Bones TO Many
Special Dispatch to The Tribune

PHILADELPHIA, July 12.--Ameri-
can womanhood is developing diseased
condition of the sinuses, the i'm
portant channels communicating with
the nostris, according to DR.. Herbert
M. Goddard, noted rhinologist of
this city. Here arc the facts as given
by DR.. Goddard to-day:
Scventy-fve per cent of the women
of this country. both young and old.
are suffering from various degrees of
irritation Of the septum, the hony
cartilagirous piece that separates the
nostrls. 1t is the result OF too mucn
powder going up the nostrils.
1t is not the use of the powder that
is harmful, DR.. Goddard pointed out
but the hurried way that it is APP
Piled
"The powder that flies up the nose
and lodges there acts as an irritant,"
said the specialist. 1nflammatory
changes are bound to take place. The
degree of irritancy, of course. depends
on the ability of the patient to throw
the inflammation off.
GAS a result of the Inflammation
diseased condition of the frontal,
maxillary or sphcnoidal parts is quite
likely to occur"

and had talked from the same platform
with Gladstone in favor Of home rule

Roosevelt Name
Arrest of Mrs. Burkett Ii
Ordered Following Claim
Colonel Signed a Note
for 10000 in Chicago
Queer Story Is Involved
Document Alleged to Have
Been Executed at the
Bull Moose Convention

A telegraphic request for the arrest
Of Mrs. Emma Richardson Burkctt on
a charge of forging the name Of tho
late President Theodore Roosevelt to
a promissory note for $4,000 was
wired yesterday by the Police Depart
ment to the authorities at Hillsdale,
Ind.
Mrs. Burkett. in October, 1919, filed
q claim on the estate of the late
Colonel Roosevelt for the amount. The
note was dated June 6, 1912, and was
made payable in eight years at 4O7
terest at per cent. The note was
signed Charles ;. Shunson and Colonel
Theodore Roosevelt
The note, according to Mrs. Burkett,
was made while Colonel Roosevelt was
in Chicago attending the Bull Moose
convention. She said the Colonel signed
the note in the presence of herself
and Shunson, who, she said, was a
Rough Rider with the Colonel. She
asserted she had been called to Chi
cago by James G. Payton, justice
of the peace, who knew that she had
money 10 invest unuer peculiar clrcum-
stances. The money, she said, was
turned over to Shunson for use in the
campaign. She said that the last she
heard from Shunson was in 1917, when
he sailed for France.
When informed of the note the en-
ecutors of the Roosevelt estate started
an action in the Supreme Court to have
the claim declared invalid These ex-
ecutors arc Mrs. Edith X. Roosevelt
and Theodore Roosevelt, widow and
son of the late President, and George
Emlen Roosevelt. On April 10, 1920,
Mrs. Burkett was notified in writing
that her claim had been rejected.
After the notification had been sent
to Mrs. Burkett, George Emlen Roose-
welt went to the Office of Assistant
District Attorney John T. Dooling and
made complaint. An investigation
was started at once. Members of the
Roosevelt family said the Colonel had
been surrounded by members of the
family during his entire stay in Chi
cago and that at no time had he signed
such a note.
Bankers and handwriting experts
who knew the signature of the late
President said the word Colonel"
never was used by the former Pres-
dent in any financial transaction A
comparison of the signature of Shun-
son affixed to the note and the hand
writing used in recording the payment
of interest in June, 1917, convinced
these officials that both names were
forged.
