VITO Swears 10 Many IndIsnities
P1rTsBuRa. Jan. e.-Mrs. Eliza Sutton
Mckee to-day obtained divorce from hel
husband, A. Hart Mckee, the young Pitts
burg millionaire, who some time ago caused
! talk by his attentions 10 Mrs. Tevis, both II
New York and in Europe, and over whom
Mrs. Phipps and Mrs. Tevis are said to have
| had hair pulling match in New Yorh
| hotel.
IL was not intended that the testimony
Of Mrs. Mckee in asking for the divorce be
made public, but the testimony leaked gu,
! to-day. as well as that Of Elizabeth Foster
a former maid of Mrs. Mckee, and DR.. r
| Sutton, her father Miss Foster lives al
81 East Forty-nlnth street, New York.
Judge Evans granted the divorce on the
grounds that Mckee offered indignities TO
his wife, making her life so burdensome
that she was forced to withdraw from his
home to the shelter of her fathers roof.
Mckee did not contest the proceedings, it
being understood that when he gave Mrs.
Mckee $500 600 several months ago he would
not protest when she applied for divorce.
Mrs. Mckee sets forth in her bill that she
was In constant fear Of her life at the HANDS
OF Mckee; that he always carried two re-
volvers, and slept with one under his pillow
that on one occasion he threw loaded
revolver at her. She also set forth that
he had been in the habit Of bringing strange
women to their home In New York, and
when she demonstrated she was told II she
did not like it she could leave. On one
occasion when she was III he took down
the doors between his room and her
bedroom and arranged mirrors 80 that he
would not lose sight OF the nurse. He had
threatened TO take her children away, and
said he would take them to Buenos Ayres,
and spend a million dollars IL necessary to
keep them from her. He also told her that
his mother would take great delight in
breaking her neck
On one occasion Mckee battered down
the door Of bathroom where she was,
though there we're two other baths in the
house. and on another occasion he struck
her. This was when she was confined TO
bed after giving birth to a child
Mckee, she said, turned the keys OF the
house and purse over 10 the butler, and in
other ways Inundated her Once on
train, In t he hearing of maids, while going
to Philadelphia he had told her in loud
voice that any man who would keep her
might have her. This. she said, was with
out any provocation on her part at all.
DR.. r. S. Sutton, father Of Mrs. Mckee,
testified that he had done his best TO recon-
Gle the couple, but could not do 30, and
that when his daughter came to his home
with her children she was thin and sick, as
If she had been half starved. Neither she
nor the children had sufficient clothing.

Mr.. Work said that the Munroes, since the
receiver was appointed, had made no effort
to assist him in finding the assets of the COM

that even before the failure expert account
ants were at work on the firms books, which.
according to Mr.. Work had not been posted

were employed the receiver hasn't been
able to ascertain.

The waste in Federal printing may
be summed up as comprised in two
general elasses-such as occurs from
various causes in the conduct Of the
printing plant itself; such as results
in publishing pamphlets and volumes

needed, issued too expensively or in
too large numbers. OF these two class

is purely business matter, and can
