Case Expected.

Pittsburg. Pa. July GA decision
in the Hartje divorce case will prob
ably not be handed down before au-
tumn It was learned toady that when
the plaintiff closes his rebuttal, which
is expected to be Thursday of next
week, some of the attorneys in the
case will ask for an adjournment IN
til the September term of court when
the arguments Will be heard.
A report was current today that two
new conspiracy charges in connection
with recent developments in the case
were to be entered at once, but Assist
ant District Attorney John S. Robb re-
fused tosverify it. All he would say
was the stand taken by the court
against talking. was that nothing
would be done until the close of the
divorce trial.
The conspiracy charge against Au-
gustus Hartje. his friend. John L.
WelshonS. and Clifford HoOe, the negro
coachman. will be called before Alder
man King Wednesday afternoon next.
If the divorce case is still on at that
time an adjournment may be asked
for.
Mrs. Hartje expressed herself today
as not at all alarmed over the report
that kidnapers were laying plans to
steal the children. It is thought the
plot. If there is one. is the work of
persons who want to hold the children
for a ransom.
Much excitement was caused in DO
lice and court circles about o'clock
this afternoon by a report that Angus
tus Hartje. the millionaire paper man
ufacturer Of this city and plaintiff in
the now famous divorce case had shot
himself. The report was first received
over the telephone by Captain of Police
1agane at central station. There was
no foundation whatever for the rumor
as Mr.. Hartje at the moment was in
consultation with his attorneys at their
offices.
