pLATTS AGREE
;. TO LIVE APART
Senator and WIFE Sign an Agree.
ment Providing for Final
Separation.

New York, Nov. 1G.-Senator Thorn
rs G. Plat and his wife, formerly
Mrs. Lillian T. Janeway, have agreed
to separate. The law firm of Marsh,
Winslow s. Viewer, acting for Mrs.
Platt, made the announcement. The
deed was signed by both, but not in
the presence OF each other and Is as
follows:
Owing to unhappy differences be-
tween them, the undersigned have this
day executed a deed Of separation.
While making such announcement, we
wish to assert with all possible en-
pllasis the falsity of the scandalous ar
ticles which have lately appeared in
the public prints. While there has
been series Of differences and dis
putes which seem to make II separation
advisable, there has been no conduct
upon the part of either which could
possibly BE- the foundation of n divorce
action. No question of the nfidelity
Of either to the other has ever been
raised. Statements which have charged
violent and disgraceful scenes between
us. or other improprieties upon the
part of either of us, are absolutely
false"
The agreement is dated Nov. -. The
declaration that mo question of the
inlldelity of either to the other has
ever been raised" is made with the
same specific postiveness MS the denial
on Oct. 2 that any differences existed
between Senator Platt and his wife
and the statement that all reports to
the contrary We're "a tissue Of false
| hoods"
