WAS VIRTUALLY SLAVE
Court Reserves Decision in
Mrs. Soloron'S Case.

Mrs Mary a. F.. Solomon, Of 517
Sixty-eighth street, Brooklyn. who is
suing George A. Solomon, one of the
owners of the Consolidated Brokers. Inc,
at ] s3 Reade street Manhattan, for sep
ara ation. declared IN an affidavit filed
yesterday in the Supreme Court Brook

of a woman's place in married lifo had
much TO do with the present situation.

a wife was practically slave. She did
not agree with him that she should re-
main at home, with little pleasure and
no company whatsoever. or that she
should obtain his permission when she
wished to go out. Yet, she said. when
she broke one of her husbands rules he
beat her.
Justice Dixie reserved decision on Mrs.
Solomons application for 500 week
alimony pending trial OF her suit.

NOT TO PROSECUTE
IN CRONKHITE CASE
County Official Announces
Action in Alleged Killing
of Army Major.

TAcoMA, Dec. Thames w. Selden.
prosecuting attorney Of Pierce county,
announced to-day he would not initiate
prosecution as a result of the killing
at Camp Lewis in October. 1918. of
Major Alexander +. Cronkhite.
The prosecutor is preparing a state
ment of the result ot his investigation.
Copies will be sent to Major-GeH. Adel-
bert Cronkhite, New York, father of the
dead officer. and to Capt. Robert Rosen-
bluth. New York, arrested by Federal
authorities on a charge of having slain
Major CronlShite after Sergeant Roland
K. Pothier made purported confession
in which he declared he shot Major
Cronkhite at the mitigation of Capt.
Rosenbluth. Pothier retracted this state
ment and Capt. Posenbluth was released.
Mr.. Seldens announcement was made
in public statement and officials OF
Pierce county accepted it as an exoner-
alton of Capt. Rosenbluth.
At the time OF Major Cronkhite's s
death a military board of inquiry at
Camp Lewis found that his death re-
suited from an accidental self-inflicted
wound caused by shooting himself in
the right breast with a pistol during
target practice. The finding of this
board of inquiry was not questioned
until Pothier made his so-called con-
fession more than two years later.
Following receipt OF news from I'd
coma that Prosecutor James w. Sell
oen would not prosecute MIN on charges
Of killing Major Alexander p. Cron-
khite at Camp Lewis In October. 1915
Capt. Robert Rosenbluth last night an
rounced he would demand an investiga-
tion of the machinery Of the Department
of Justice.
"I shall ask he said. land hope all
justice loving Americans will join me
IN asking. complete and impartial in
vestigation as to how the machinery
of the Department of Justice can be so
terribly perverted. first to wrong a cit
izen of our country and then to pre-
vent, insofar as il can, the righting OF
that wrong.
Prosecutor Selden's manliness and
courageous expression of the broad
duties of prosecutors to help undo the
wrong is direct challenge 10 Attor-
ney-General Daugherty to invite such
a sweeping and impartial investigation
preferably by Congress. Thus and thus
only can he hope to restore the conf
dence of our people in the Department
of Justice which he heads"
Capt. Rosenbluth said the prosecutors
offer to help undo the wrong" was
contained in n letter received by him
from Mr.. Selden.

Heated Session, Eychang-
inc Bitter Charges.

Wheher the International Sporting
Club. Inc, and its subsidiaries are
hopelessly insolvent or possess assets
that outweigh their obligation and
make their continuance possible is a
question that can be decided only by
the 400 members who sat in the grand
ballroom of the Commodore for nearly
six hours last and early this morning
listening to a wrangle over the clubs
finances which at times nearly led to
blows.
The meeting, called to hear the re-
port of an investigation committee ap-
pointed to examine into the clubs
financial condition, found itself hope
lessly divided on the question of
whether condition of solvency or in
solvency prevailed. Gutzon Borglum.

organizer, sailed for England, led

termed "a bad deal" were headed by
Frank A. j. Borland. lawyer
Upon one thing at least both sides
seem to agree. and that was that Mr..
Gavin was largely responsible for the
clubs condition. Mr.. Borland con-
den,ned Gavin, while Mr.. Borglum said
the organizer erred in not having taken
the club members into his confidence
Those conflicting opinions led to the fire.

which finally wound up with Mr. Bor-
lands right to practice law being uues-
toned.
Insists Club Is bankrupt.
Both Mr.. Borland and Mr.. Borglum
had had audits made of the books of the
club and its subsidiaries. Mr.. Borland
claimed his audit showed the club was
hopelessly bankrupt and that the men,
bers had poured sl.100.000 INTO a sieve.
Mr.. Borglum held the contrary. Both
admitted the only tangible asset the club
had is a piece of property in Lexington
avenue between Forty-eighth and
Fotry-ninth streets. which was to have
been the site for clubhouse. Upward
OF 100000 was sunk in this ground. the

the property be held, saying he had esti-

glum and three other men present at the
meeting We're directors when the resolu-
ton WAS passed.
BorgIum DeaOunces Heport
Several attempts were made to inter-
rupt the reading OF the report but they
were prevented purely by the weight OF
the chairman's gavel and the strength Of
his voice. Mr.. Borand tried several
times TO elaborate upon the written re-
port but on each occasion one or more
members demanded he stick to the re-
port. The lawyer said Major A. J.
Drexel Biddle. who was president and a
director of the club, submitted resigna-
lions twice and OH each occasion with
drew them a day or two later He re-
fcrred to Major Biddle as "Biddle Glass

cial condition when he finally resigned

the true condition." ne said, 1--WE at least
could have prevented another $136,000

Mr.. Borglum characterized the COM
mittee's report "a sham and pure
camoutlage." He denied the insolvency
and said there was a sinister movement
on foct to wreck what little was left of
the club that IL had taken three wears o
build. The sculptor said Mr. Gavin ex-
pended $4,000 of his own money the
first year 10 finance tnS ciub, o44u l....t

did not exceed SIS, 900. This amount he
did not consider excessive I'm view Of the
problem involved. Turning to Mr.. Bor-
land the sculptor said

as you like, Mr. Borland. but you will
find me here TO the end paying every
dollar out of my art that l can to keep
this club alive
The climax came at 80 A. NJ. after a
committee to handle the interests of the
club members. Mr.. Borland and Mr..
Porglum had been the contending speak
ers and had passed hot words when Jack
Cooper, who had been the clubs match
maker, questioned the lawyers profess
sional status.
Your liar and Il cur and I will make
you prove it, Mr.. Borland retorted
Both men were white with anger and
were on the verge of blows when other
members jumped between them. The
meeting ended quickly and they were
conducted out of th balelroom by diff

statement relative to the grave political
situation. While deploring the excesses
committed as result OF the present un-

"The repressive policy inaugurated by

the forces of unrest are bound to reap

They urge both sides to call halt to
prevent "a course of action which If

to formulate a constructive policy recog-
