Woman Can't Live Oh
$75 Month, Court Holds
Divorce Granted ON Evidence
Showing Friendship of Hus-
hand With Rlnndc

There is likely to be renewal OF
the often repeated symposium, "on how
much can a woman live decently in
New York;"
Justice Tierncy started it in tho
Supreme Court yesterday while pre-
siding at the trial Of divorce suit
brought by Mrs. Marie Dorothy Carey
Rabell, Of 13 West Sixty-fourth Street
against Ulysses L. Rabell, president OF
school of mechanical dentistry. The
evidence showed Rabell was friendly
with blonde young woman, whose
name was not mentioned, and the
court decreed Mrs. Rabell should have
divorce.
Counsel for Rabell suggested that
the 500 a month Mrs. Rabell has been
receiving pending trial be cut to $75
month, to which Justice Tierney re-
piled, 1876 month is ridiculous. No
decent woman can maintain herself on
that amount. 1t is little more than 81
day, and where in this city can a re-
spectacle. refined woman get food,
shelter and clothing for that sum-"
Justice Tierney added, that so long
as Rabell could run an automobile and
visit roadhouses he could afford to
pay more than SIS month. He said
the temporary alimony award might
have been more than 500 month had
the plaintiff objected to that amount.
