An Unfortunate Marriage. Ira Lowe The Stepfather of Eight Children. Suits For Divorce And Separation. Joseph Kohler, counsel for Ira Lowe, asked Justice Pryor, in the Supreme Court yesterday, to appointed a receiver to collect the rents at No. 1,150 Second-ave., this city, and No. 365 Bushwick-ave., Brooklyn, jointly owned by himself and his wife, Adelheld. The motion was denied. His wife brought a suit for absolute divorce from Lowe, and this suit was dismissed by Justice Pryor in June last. Mrs. Lowe was a widow with eight children when she was married to her present husband, who at the time was only twenty-nine years old. Three of the children were of age, and Mrs. Lowe alleged that she made over to her husband a half-interest in her property on his promise to support her live younger children. Counsel for Lowe said that since her unsuccessful suit for divorce, Mrs. Lowe hat refused to allow her husband any part of the rents, and had neglected to pay taxes or interest upon certain mortgages, and that foreclosure was threatened. Mrs. Lowes counsel said that she had begun a suit for separation from her husband on the grounds of cruelty and desertion, and that she needed the rents of the property for the support of herself and children.
