HkRTJE DIVORCE SUIT
SISTER OF RESPONDENT RESUM-
ED THE STAND TODAY.

PITrSBURG, Pa, July 1s.-The attend
ance at the opening of the trial of the
Hartje divorce case today was smaller
than on any day since it began.
Miss Ida b. Scott sister of Mrs Hartje,
the respondent, who was on the stand when
court adjourned yesterday, was again
called The witness said that Mrs Hartje
never wrote letters or telephoned to Thomas
Nadine the correspondent.
Concerning the envelope known as exhibit
hibit "a, Miss Scott said she had addressed
II for Annie Lutz, domestic.
This is the only envelope SO far intro
ducsd in evidence and Is the one the ex-
perts for Hartje said was in the respond
ent's handwriting.
Miss Scott was then shown the letters
figuring in the case and picked out num-
ber of the mssives as having been written
on stationery belonging either to herself
Annie Lutz, had been given this kind of
letter paper and she wrote letters quite
frequently. The testimony caused a SEN
sation, and the plaintiffs attorneys fol-
lowed with a searching cross-examination
to break its effect.
John L. Welshons who is now under
s., coo bail on the charge of conspring with
Augustus Hartje, the plaintiff, and Clifford
Hooe the negro coachman to defame the
character Of Mrs. Hartje. announced that
he will go on the stand a witness for
the defense and explain his connection with
the case.

MAI. BARTLETT's ACCOUNTS
No Additional Developments in the
Treasury Department

Treasury officials said today that there
We're no additional facts in connection with
the defalcation of the late Major George A.
Bartlett. disburslng clerk of the depart
ment.
Friends of the dead official refused to he
lieve that he had been cr!minally guilty of
defrauding the government. They pointed
to the fact that the books were not doc
tored, and declared that if he were alive he
would be able to satisfactorily explain the
whole thing.
As showing one way in which there might
De q possible explanation in some form of
the shortage there was made public a
copy of the appointment Major Bartlett re-
ceived in 1891 as disbursing officer OF the
funds for the construction of the Washing
ton. post office. In his appointment to that
office he was informed by Gen. Q. l.. Spauld-
ing, then acting Secretary of the Treasury,
that he would be paid q compensation in
accordance with the provisions of the law
relative to disbursements. This was sup
posed to be three-eighths of l per cent of
the total cost, something near 81. 800, 600.
Acting under his letter. Major Bartlett paid
himself $9,00 in commissions.
He is supposed to have spent or invested
the money. Some time afterward, however,
the controller of the treasury decided that
he was not entitled to compensation, the
law being opposed to a government en-
pIoye receiving two compensationS for his
work. An appeal was taken to the Court of
Claims, which upheld the controller. A fur
ther appeal to the Supreme Court resulted
in decision against Major Bartlett.
1t was necessary to replace the money
thus paid to himself and the suggestion is
made that Major Bartlett was never able
to do this, finding himself that much behind
the government in his accounts.
The fact that Major Bartlett died poor
man Is pointed to as further evidence that
he was an honest man, and that mistake
had been made somewhere. His total estate

Controller Tracewell says the shortage In
the accounts of Major Bartlett were dis
covered shortly after his death five months
ago, but that no one could believe the
dead guilty of wrong. Therefore, a
number of further Investigations and inspec-
tions of books were made, all resulting in
the same showing, shortage of something
