Hills acted toward the coachman in a
manner that aroused the resentment
Of the senator and caused him to up
braid her. The coachman's attentions
to Mrs. Plat, are said TO have caused
an irrecOpcilable breach and the sub
Sequent separation. which is now to
be made permanent
~ That was the only angle of the
Platts' domestic trouble that has up
to now been printed. That there Is
two sides to every story" Is again
shown. There is another side to the
Paatt story and it has just become
known. The principal character in
this other side of the story, aside from
the senator himself, of course, is the
spright1y and vivacious young blonde
woman hereinbefore referred to. She
is a favorite of the senator and until
quite recently was chum of Mrs
Platt. She is married and lives with
her husband. $50 srs

when word of these meetings reached
the ear of Mrs Plat she determined
to investigate. She had long been sus-

she had known socially before the
trouble arose. She was told that the
senator and the woman were in the
habit OF visiting an deliberately fur

years-long before his first wife died.
This rooming house is in West Thirty
eighth street and the house and fur

last sixteen years. 1t was in a mag

ground floor of the LaMonte house

on the day of the sensational door

Information and belief, came to the
city from her country home on the

coachman, Hedges, two law clerks and
a private detective went to the Hotel

he expects to take the scalp of Billy

Richard says: Nolan has been
handling three sets of films in the mid
die west without any authority, and
has failed to turn in a cent. He writes
he will make no accounting. We have
used our money in buying films Tor
use the country over. From statements
we have received from some of the
theaters I know Nolan has received
$4,000 and there are many places from
which we have not heard, so 1 figure
he has taken in about $4,000.
IT have letters with me- declared
Richard, land he will smart for some
of the things he has said in them. No

wrote me that if I dared make any
protests he would expose me and he
would have me arrested because owed
him some money. He will have
chance now, as 1 am going after him.
He declares I owed him 1870. He Dor
rowed that amount from ole Elliot,
treasurer of the. Goldheld club Elliot
was going to have Nolan arrested but
persuaded him to let me handle the
affair. I talked with Billy on the train
to Reno and he gave me a draft Tor
$1,000. I had that changed, kept $S1o
and gave him the balance.
Richard says he probably will pro-
mote a fight at Ely, New, next year

tectives and law clerks upon a
sumptuousiy equipped lodging house
in West Thirty-eighth street, where
Senator Platt is said to have been
found in rendezvous with a vivacious
and sprightly blonde young woman
whom Mrs. Plat long had suspected.
Shattered doors, hysterical shrieks,
bitter recriminations and the final
withdrawal of Mrs. P1att, bearing as
trophies of the chase the dainty boots
of the beautiful third party to the
drama, are all details of the sensa-
tonal and interesting exposure upon
which Mrs. Plat based the prelimi-
nary steps in the proceedings which
have now terminated in what she con-
siders a happy and satisfactory ar
rangement
It will be recalled that about a
month ago the fact was printed that
Senator and Mrs. Plat had separated.
Mrs. Plat remained in the magnificent
country estate in Highland Hills,
while the senator took up his abode in
the Hotel Gotham. At the time there
was a story printed to the effect that
the senator resented the undue affec-
ton paid to his wife by the coachman,
Hedges. 1t was declared that Hedges
had accompanied the senator and
Mrs. Piatt, together with a party of
friends, on a transcontinental tour in
a private car.
1t was said that Hedges wore no
livery, dined with the guests at the
table and generally made himself OBJ
