DIVORCE
Ex-Mayor McKisson
Alleges His Wife Has
Been NegIectfuI.
Judge Kohler Heard Testi-
mony Monday.
lntiInates That Decree Will be
Granted.
Mrs. McKisson VIII be Given Iudg-
ment For Alimony.

Ex-Mayor Robert e. McKisson ap-
peared in the Common Pleas court in
Elyria yesterday as an applicant for a
divorce, says Cleveland special. His
case was heard by Judge Kohler of Ak
ron, but the decree granting the di-
vorce was not entered upon the jour
nal of the court. Judge Kohler inti-
mated last night that he would grant
Mr.. McKisson a divorce decree in
day or two, but refused to make
definite statement regarding it until
the formal decree has been entered up
on the court records. 1t is understood,
however, that the attorneys were in
formed that divorce would be grant
ed and that all that remains is the for
NAL act of drawing decree.
The suit for divorce was commenced
by Mrs. McKisson, who charged her
husband with gross neglect. The ex-
mayor filed cross-petition, making
similar charges against his wife. Ev-
cry possible effort was made to pre-
serve secrecy in the proceedings and
the fact that even the divorce papers
had been filed did not leak out.
The parents Of Mrs. McKisson live
near Oberlin, which lis in Lorain coun.
ty, of which Elyria Is the county seat
1t is supposed that Mrs. McFisson
went to the home of her parents and
gained a legal residence in Lorain
county before filing her suit. The law
requires that divorce case cannot be
heard until at least six weeks after
the petition is hled.
Judge Nye of Elyria Is sitting upon
the Common Pleas bench in that city,
but for some reason, said that he could
not hear the McKisson case. On that
account Judge Kohler, who belongs
to the same judicial district, was sum-
moned to Elyria yesterday to try the
case.
Mrs. McKisson did not appear at the
trial in person and made no defense
against her husbands cross-petltion.
She was represented at the trial, how
ever, by an attorney, S. u. Thomas of
Elyria, Hon. e. G. Johnson, of Elyria,
well known lawyer and Re-
publican politician, appeared as coun-
sci for Mr.. McKisson.
Ex-Mayor McKisson took the wit
ness stand in his own behalf and testi-

fed ut length regarding the alleged
neglect of his wife. Three Oh four
other witnesses were examined and
several dispositions were offered in evi-
denee.
Judge Kohler said last night that
Mrs. McKisson would receive alimony,
the amount having been agreed upon
out of court.
The McKisson divorce proceedings
will cause great deal of a sensation
in Cleveland, although there have been
rumors in the past that the ex-mayor
and his wife did not get along AMIGA
bly, together and that divorce proceed
ings might be instituted. A year ago
last spring when Mr.. McKisson was
candidate for reelection for mayor, the
report was quite generally circulated
that there were domestic difficulties
in the McKisson family and that Mrs.
McKisson would begin divorce pro-
ceedings. The report was Indignantly
denied, however, by both McKisson
and his wife. The denial led to the
supposition that the report was simply
a campaign yarn.
1t was reported last night that Mr..
McKisson will soon marry well
known West Side lady.

Postponed.

The City Council by vote of eight
to three at Monday nights meeting,
decided to purchase two fire engines,
one aerial truck and two combination
ttse carts, as recommended by the

tions to contract with the American
Fire Engine Company for one metro
Eolitan engine; the Thomas Manning
Co., for one Manning engine; the Fire
Extinguisher Company for one aerial
truck and the Holloway Company, for
two combination hose carts, Council
man Brady arose and said he would
favor the passage of the resolutions,
provided the city would execute its
promises to build fire station in the
old Fifth ward at corner Of Wooster
avenue and Water streets.
Commissioner Paige said the Board
of City Commissioners favored the
building of fire station in the old
Fifth ward.
Councilmen Paul, Merz, and Fiebeg-
er voted against the purchase of new
fire apparatus at the bids submitted
snd believed the city should re-adver-
tlse.

ing Company and the Northern Ohio
