Kutmona Server on Trail of
Millionaire Said to Have Come
Upon Him in Club Father
! Not Informed.
NEW YORK. May 22. (Special.)
Not salisfk-d with her permanent sep
aration from her husband, which is ac
companied by a decre that gives her
$1 j.000 a year alimony. Mrs. Mary Blair
Brofcaw, wife of the millionaire, W.
Gould Brokaw, now seeks an absolute
divorce. Process servers have been fol
lowing Brokaw several days and are
said to have succeeded In thrusting Into
his hand a copy of the papers as he.
was entering the New York Athletic
Club. The Brokaws. husband and wife,
nominally are residents of Nassau
County, and the suit will be tried there.
The grounds of the suit have not been
made public.
Father Not In Secret.
The father of Mrs. Brokaw. James A.
Blair, of Chittenango, N. Y., apparently
Is not in the secret.
"It's all news to me," Mr. Blair said
over the long-distance telephone last
night. "When Mary left here orae days
ago I was under the Impression that
she was going to New York to testify
in some tradesman's suit, brought
against Brokaw. He has had several
of those suits since he and my daugh
ter separated.
"She was at the Garden City Hotel
until this morning. 1 don't know where
she went from there. We don't expect
hT back here for a few days."
Mr. Blair was asked If Mrs. Brokaw
had ever talked with him or other
members of his household regarding a
divorce from Brokaw.
"No; I ca n't say sho has," he an
swered. "She may have planned to
tako this step, though, and kept it se
cret from -me because of the worry It
would give me."
Separation Suit Sensat loual.
Mrs, Brokaw's suit for separation in
Mineola was ono of the most sensational
of the kind ever heard hereabouts. The
trial began In I-ecembi-r. l'.lli). before
Justice Harrington Putnam, and lasted
throughout an entire special term of
the. Supreme Court.
Mrs. Brokaw was subjected to a gru
elling at the hands of John' F. Mclntyre.
of counsel for Brokaw, but throughout
ihe Ion;, ordeal her demeanor won the
svrr.nathy of the court and the scores of
society reopio who gathered at the trial
from Ut Long Island felonies.
For several months prior to the sop
a ration Mrs. Brokaw occupied otie of
the houses on the country estate of
Mrs. Emily Idenburg near Westbury.
Members of the Blair family were there
with her and every morning they drove
to court. Shortly after the trial began
there was a heavy snow, and for three
day a Mrs. Brokaw and her relatives
drove to court in a big farm sleigh.
On the stand Brokaw did not fare as
well as his wife. Many days he was on
tho stand under cross-examination by
Arthur Baldwin. Mrs. Brokaw's lawyer.
Brokaw, when aked concerning his for
tune, said that his entire estate was
worth $1.6;U.y;t'.. but that his annual
income was only $ I ti,70ti.7..
Brokan'i Troubles umrr u.
This Is the second time the millionaire
and clubman has figured in divorce pro-i-eedlnRS.
The first Mrs. Brokaw was
Miss Leone Coudert. a niece of Fred
eric K. Coudert, the famous New York
lawyer. Following her divorce, which
sho obtained in Rhode Island, she went
to Black Rock, Conn., to live with her
brother. Norman Coudert.
Brokaw then figured in a sensational
breach -of-prom is j suit brought by
Katherlne Poillon nine years ago. She
alleged that Brokaw had promised to
marry her and then cast her off. she
sued for 125.000 damages and Is safd to
have gut about $30,000 before the case
was finally settled.
Brokaw's engagement to Mary Blair
was announced it the Summer of 1007.
The wedding took place on September
In the Blair home at Chittenango and
was attended only by a few intimate
friends and relatives of the families.
The wedding was not without inci
dent. Brokaw desired to be married by
an Episcopal clergyman and sent for
Rev. J I. E. Coddlntrton, rector of
Grace Episcopal Church of Syracuse,
.taking him to perform the ceremony.
Although ten years had elapsed since
the first Mrs. Brokaw had obtained her
divorce. In. Coddington refused to act
and Rev. George Spauldlng, pastor of
the First Presbyterian Church of Syra
cuse, tied tho knot.
