It was learned yesterday that Supreme Court Justice Scudder nt New-burgh on June 18 last wrote "finis" to tho record of marital unhapplness piled up fcetweerr' J. Lawrence Molt, heir to tho millions of the Mott family of Iron manufacturers, and his wife, the former Carolyn W. Pitkin of Bralntroe.

whom married while a student at Harvard seventeen years ago. It became known that Justice Scudder had granted to Mrs. Slott a decree of separation, allowing her the custody of her fifteen-year-old son and 37,500 a year In monthly Instalments. The love affairs of young Molt ho Is now only 35 have at variouB tlmea engaged tho lntcrctt of three continents. Born of a family distinguished In the Industrial and social life of the country, Mott began during his college career to build an unenviable reputation for himself.

Following Ms marriage to Miss Pitkin, previous to which he had been defendant In a breach of promise suit, tho couple spent honeymoon In a wild eectlon of northern Canada, wheie Mott gathered material for stories of frontier life. Toung Mott broke Into the news In 1912 when he sailed from New York on the British freighter Indradeo with Mr. Frances Hewitt Bowne. a former actress and wife of Walter Bowne, a wealthy man of Long Island. Then followed a round the world chase for the elopers led by Hector Fuller, war correspondent, ho was retained by the Mott family to Intercept the fleeing couple wherever iw could, Meantime Mrs.

Carolyn Pitkin Mott had left the young millionaire because of his vagaries. The chase led to Gibraltar, through the Mediterranean and finally to Hong Kong, whero Fuller overtook the pair, but was unable to Induce Mott to return. In tho papers before Justice Scudder was letter from Mott to his wire say ing that a magazine that he was editing In Japan was a success. He added: "Everything Is lovely nnd the gooBe hangs high. Good luck to you and my love to the laddie." Xr Reception for Filer Hltelicock.

It was this manager who last year made the amus-the figures, out of Booth Tarklngton'a "Seventeen" breathe behind the footlights. This year the metropolitan stage Is tittered with kiddles. They threaten to elbow tho German spies out of sight in the great struggle for life which Ib Just now taking place among the masterpieces of our native drama exposed on tho theatre's heights.

At all events. It was Mr. Walker who first took these Interesting Tarklngton young persons by the hand and led them Into view. At the little Princess Theatre, In which Mr. Walker settled for a while with his portmanteau dramas, he showed last night the latest product of his Imagination In dealing with the psychological problems of childhood.

Three acts, called "Jonathan Makes a Wish," form the play. Gregory Kelly, so Important In Mr. Walker's successes In the past, had the leading role. Has a Toy Theatre. The first net of "Jonathan Makes a Wish" laid In a lumber room, which serves a retreat ro-inir Jonathan.

Hero ho has his toy theatre nnd at an old piano he and his little playmate, Sutan Sample, "make up" songs. Out of sight of stern Uncle John, Jona- than Is happy but the head ot the Clay family has no sympnthy for his nephew's "nonsense" and plans to give him a business trnlnlng that will fit him to devote his life to the glory of tho "Clay Concrete Manufacturing Company." Back to his old home wanders KatKanltl Clay, John younger brother, who has run away srventeen years before because he preferred writing to concrete. As a fellow dreamer.

Now tne Allegory Brains. JonalJion resolves to run nway and climbs out of the high window, attempting to let hlmielf down by a rope, but it gives way and he falls on the rocks below.

Tho second act shows Jonathan delirium In which he Is a vagabond of twenty, crippled and hopeless, roaming the country with JJanfc as companion. All the persons of the first act pass before him, but fall to recogn i him. and he i wretched and despairing. But the last act brings a happy Jonofhnn gets well and Uncle Nathaniel helns him to ireedom. ferlngs of a misunderstood hoy of 14 has an Imaginative quality and a certain grace In Its revelation.

The Allegory of the second act Inevitably suggests Mrs. Gates's "The Poor Little Rich Girl." although that drama was richer in Invention and had no such lack of vrrlety as occasionally threatened mght to develop Into tedium. The sym- xt- moreover, IIJIIBU. VI was not always sufficiently incisive to grip the spectator.

The lllu-lon of the second act. with the children dancing In the sunlight, and the boy's climb to the heights of the green hill wsh well presented. But It Is altogetner conceivable that Mr. Walker; In writing the play, and the actors In Interpreting It hnd much bettor opportunity to enjoy themselves than the spectators who were witnessing the achievement rrom me other side ot the footlights. Gregory Kelly acted tho fourteen-year-old boy with the restraint common to him.

S. Noycs of Fool Administration Says Pershing's Needs Aro Jeopardized. NOT ENOUGH STEEL MADE Luck of It May Cost Thousands of American Soldiers' Lives. Cincinnati, Sept, 10. Failure to pro duce and conserve the coal necessary for the manufacture of vast quantities of munitions needed by Gen.

Pershing's nrmv In final drive against the Ger man forces will mean the sacrifice of I fiotisands of American youths on the field of battle. P. B. Ifoye. director of conservation of the Fuel Administration, said In an address here to-day Deroro the Association of Stationary Kngtneers.

In such an emergency, with success depending upon steel and steel depending upon ooal, Mr. Noyce) said he was confident no man would sparo himself either labor to nave the last pound of wasto or any sacrifice Involved In devoting tho fuel nnd material vitally essential In carrying out the army programme overseas. Mr. Noyei said If every business Interest saw the facts an they are seen In Washington there ould be no need of regulations for conserving the coal supply, only directions. "We are facing a catastrophe." asserted Mr.

Noyes. "It Is not one of those catastrophes which make such a noise that every one knows when they happen. It Is silent tragedy. We cannot fill Pershing's orders In full because the United StateH cannot make sufficient steel thin winter. A shortngB In steel results utmost entirely from lack of coal.

"Keep this In mind nnd then look forward to the events of the coming spring. We shall hivo the drive. We rhnll succeed In It. but some time, In February or March, or whenever the 'time has come. Gen.

Pershing will sit down with a pencil In hand, nnd will figure up the exact deficit In the filling of his orders for munitions. "With military formulas now well recognized, he will figure in place of those munitions how many extra men must be put Into the battle to be Icilled. This Is no fanciful statement. It'ls now possible to treat. In any aggrenslvo movement, the question of munitions or of casualties as Interchangeable quantities.

So many thousand American youths must be thrown Into the hopper for every thousand tons of munitions which are short." BUTTER BROKERS TO SEEK MORE PROFIT Committee Will Visit Wash- ington to Ask Rule Change. Cyrus C. Miller, director of transportation and distribution of tbe Stute Food Commission, conferred yesterday with members of the New York Mercantile rcxenange on vtho buttermen protest against the margin of profit allowed them on transactions In storage butter. The merchants argued they could not make a decent living unless the margin Is Increased. Mr.

Miller advised the merchants It was useless to find fault with the Gov ernment and suggested they send com nuttoe to Washington with facts and figures to demonstrate to the Food Ad ministration otilciaM the accuracy ot their contention that there should be modification of the rules. Such a committee will join other committees of buttermen from Boston, Philadelphia and Chicago In a trip to the capital to-day. The local butter dealers have taken exception to the Government's action In commandeering CO per cent, of all stocks of cold storage butter In excess of pounds, but there has been no rormal protest. An acute situation in the market has been produced because Uncle Sam has reached out for such large supplies of butter for the army and navy and the price has advanced 3 cents a pound In a few days, Tho handlers aro willing to let the Government have all the butter It wishes, but they feel they ought to receive a pioflt that will permit them "to make a living." When such a large amount Is taken out of the market for Government purposes the public demand for the small amount that Is left causes the price to Jump. With operating expenses at a maximum, tho commission men felt they ought to be allowed at least 2 cents a pound on the storage butter they handle.

Kdward A. Foley of the Bureau of Knforcement of the National Food Administration nnd Mr. Ritchie, also of tho Food Administration, attended the conference with Mr. Miller. The Federal Food Board received a telegram from Mr.

Hoover yesterday asking It to express to each county Food Administrator in New York State "the great appreciation wc all have for the linn wrvlcn they have given to our common task." "I wish."

"The, Jewels of the Madonna," an opera In three acts by Brmanno Wolf- Ferrari, was given at the Shubert Theatre last evening by tho Ban Carlo Opora Company. The performance was fortha benefit of the Stage Women's War Relief and after the first act Alma Clay-burgh eang "All for One and Ono for All" aa a special contribution to the entertainment Also in the course of the evening Burr Mcintosh auctioned auto graphed cartoons by that celebrated carlcuturlst Enrico Caruso. Wolf-Fcrrarl's tragic opera is by no means unfamiliar In this city, but Its fortunes have been varied. It has never enjoyed an adequato representation. It Is a difficult work by reason chiefly of the ensembles of Us first act But be yond that the Impersonators of Gennaro and Mallela need histrionic gifts and vocal skill of exceptional quality.

The story of the work Is Intensely dis agreeable to many people, but to thoso who can set aside certain revulsions caused by Oennoro's sacrilegious act and Its shameful reward It Is only another of those squalid tragedies which have attracted the Interest and absorbed the energies of so rliany Italian composers In recent years. In the first act the composer has done some very admirable work. Hut nil of It went for nothing last nlglit because of the general uncertainty prevailing on the stage nnd In the orchestra. It was a very shaky first act Indeed, and there were moments when disaster seemed Imminent. But tho conductor, (iactnno Mcrola, succeeded in bringing order out of the confusion and the act came to an effectivo ending.

Tho singers were nil earnest nnd their sincerity won general favor for them. But It would not be accurate to say that any of them sang with beauty of tone or finish or style. It Mas vigorous but rough performance. Elizabeth Ani'dcn ns Mnliela, Giuseppe Ajostlnl bh ttrn-tiaro. Joseph Roycr as Hafaelc anil Stella Demette as Carmcn were the principals.
