White Plains, N. Y., March 18.—For presenting the case of Mrs. Alice Jones Rhinelander in the annulment action of her husband, Leonard Kip Rhinelander, in the court of appeals at Albany, Lee Parsons Davis and Samuel F. Swinburne, Mrs. Rhinelander's attorneys, were granted $1,500 by Supreme Court Justice Morchauser, Thursday. They sought $5,000.
The allowance was vigorously opposed by Isaac N. Mills, counsel for Rhinelander. Mr. Mills declared that the $18,500 they had received was sufficient. Mills said that this amount represented one-tenth of Rhinelander's personal fortune. This was successfully denied by Mrs. Rhinelander's attorneys.
