williams was employed to examine
letters full OF passion. said to have
passed between Mrs. Hartje n Tom
Nadine, n coachman employed by
Hnrtje. The expert has announced that
he would fatty refuse to 70 on the
stand and testify In favor or Hartje.
He said:
First. they gave me two letters. one
OF which was written on a scrap or
and told me that was Mrs.
Hnrtje's handwriting and that the oh
or was n forgery. I examined them
and decided both were forgeries.
Then I went TO the Office Of Attorney
Freeman, Mrs. HartJe's lawyer. and
asked for n sample OF her writing. He
gave A to me and I compared IL with
the letters. They didn't look the same
TO me. All the letters looked like for
geries."
Nadine has admitted that his trunk
was robbed. presumably by n private
detective who used the name OF Craig.
Mrs. Hnrtje's lawyers are searching
for Craig. TO bring n criminal n
against him. They say they expect to
get him soon.
Mrs. HartJe's lawyers have employed
Handwriting Experts Lewis and Car

the evidence OF experts for Hartje.

to name tho man. but he succeeded In
avoiding doing SO. Now almost every
one In Pittsburg knows To whom HartJe

being placed In a false and humiltating
position. as he says.
Both Mrs. Hartje and her father,
John Scott. are Frustrated by the trial,
Scott is confined To his room, but hopes
soon TO be out TO attend the trial. Mrs.
