Second Matrimonial Venture
Brief and Turbulent.
WIFE CHARGES DECEIT
Ex-Portlander Declared to Have
Represented Self as Wealthy
While Restaurant Employe.
Brevity and turbulency were the
chief characteristics of the second
matrimonial venture of William Ray
-Apperson, ex-Portland real estate
dealer and at one time exalted ruler
of the Portland Elks' lodge. Judging
from reports received here yesterday
from San Francisco, which told of the
successful termination of a divorce
action prosecuted by Mrs. Jean Davis
Apperson,, ex-wife of a w.ealthy San
Krancisco merchant.
In the 3an Francisco divorce court
Mrs. Apperson told Judge Cabaniss
that her husband, to whom she was
married December 3 last, had posed
as a man of wealth and high social
standing, but she learned later, she
testified, that he was employed in
the menial role of salad-maker in a
San Francisco restaurant.

USSOO Spent on Honeymoon.
Mrs. Apperson said she spent $3500
on their honeymoon, which brought
them to Portland and other north
west cities. Some of the acts of
cruelty, she told the court, were com
mitted in Portland while they were
honeymooninsr, while others were
committed after their return to San
Francisco.
After the glamour of the first few
weeks had died away, she said their
married life became turbulent, and
there was a separation nearly every
other day. The final separation, re
sulting in the divorce action, occurred
'February 9.
Her matrimonial experience with
Apperson, not only cost her the $3500
expended on the wedding trip, but
25 pounds in weight, Mrs. Apperson
testified.
Apperson is well known in Port
land, being a member of the pioneer
Apperson family living near Oregon
City. He was for several years em
ployed as a railroad clerk. . In 1910 he
went into the real estate business,
but this venture was a brief one.
Apperson Lravra Portland.
In 1916 Apperson left Portland for
Spokane, and from there went to
San Francisco. While here about
two months ago on his wedding trip,
he confided to former friends that
he had "struck it bier" as a timhsr
dealer in California. His Portland A
acquaintances were astounded when g "
they learned he had been taking the R
roie oi a creator of salads in a San
Francisco restaurant.
Apperson, while living in Portland,
married a daughter of John Clark,
saddle maker. She divorced him after
several years of married life.
The latest Mrs. Apperson, In the
M" rancisco divorce court, asserted I
" - ,- ii no uaiiu iidu leceivca letters
from other women after her marriage
to him. One of these, she said, was
a nurse living in Portland, who of
fered to marry him as soon as he
had been divorced. Another woman
living at Burlingame, Cal., wanted
to buy him an automobile, the wife
said.

iu ma suaraian is me question
-n-nicn uircult Judge Tazwell faced
yesterday In the hearing on a petition i
or -aui u. i-Xrmitzer and T. B. -Mc- i ft
ievitt Jr.. for attorney fees of $5000 i Jj
for the time in which they represent-i R
ed William C. Barker tp his suit:
against Seva B. Stewart, guardian. ' A
At the close of the hearing Judge ( 5
Tazwell said his first impression was K
mat the court had power to grant a
fee to the attorneys engaged by Bar
ker, but that this was not to be taken
as a final decision. lief ore passing on
the case Judge Tazwell asserted he
desired to have a private interview
with Barker, and a meeting is being
arranged.
Mr. Dormitzer in his statement to
the court reviewed some of the sensa
tional charges which he said he in
tended to prove in the case brought
against Stewart, such as misappro
priation of funds of the $850,000 es
tate. He said he was willine- to rotii-B
from the case in . favor of James Y.. Pj
Conley, new attorney selected by &
Barker, but that he desired a fair fee A
for considerable work already ac- rA
complished in preparation fo-r the K
action. Intimating that the change in 0
case.
James B. Kerr, attorney for the
guardian confined his argument to I
the legal right of Barker to employ
attorneys.
Barker came into the estate of Co-
lumous Barker, his father, at the I
death of the latter in 1909. On his
voluntary petition Barker in 1913
asked that Stewart be appointed his
guaraian to prevent him from squan
dering his substance.
