Secrets in the Life
of Millionaire Spouse
SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL.


CHICAGO, July 1S.-Mrs. Alice Webb
Duke. whose millionaire husband. Bro
die L. Duke of New York. made sensa-
tional charges in his divorce suit
against her, is now in Chicago complet-
ing preparations for bitter fight to
vindicate her character. Witnesses
have been gathered throughout the
United States, several of them in this
city. who are relied on not only to vim
dicate Mrs. Duke, but to make disclos-
ures in comparison with which the ac-
cusatfons heard in the divorce suit will
appear insignificant Prominent soci-
ETY. men and women mingling with the
wealthy set to which Duke belongs are
to be involved by the statements Of the
witnesses. An exposure Of revelry
which is expected to throw a new light
on the case is planned by Mrs Duke
in refuting the charges Of misconduct
which her husband made against her
During her present stay In Chicago
Mrs. Duke has been conferring with
attorneys and witnesses who are ex
pected to testify in her behalf. Former
United States Senator William Z. Ma
son has been retained as her counsel.
He will go to New York to take part in
the contest Mrs. Duke declared today
that she would prove that certain wit
nesses who testified against her in the
divorce suit committed perjury. She
said the charges were the outgrowth Of
a conspiracy. She expects to introduce
direct testimony which will bring on
prosecutions for perjury.
Mrs. Duke says she will attack the
conduct of Duke. She declares Duke,
who is a brother of James B. Duke and
with him is interested in the tobacco
trust has been making life miserable
for her ever since the divorce case was
begun. She insists that she has been
slandered and libeled by members Of

LETTERS Of SISTER
HELEN SHOWN.
New Development Adds
to the Mystery of the
Hartje Divorce Case
FORGERYCHARGED

PITTSBURG. Pa, July 1S.-with each
succeeding day of the Hartje divorce
trial new sensations are developing.
Misses Ida and Helen Scott were star
witnesses today for their sister, Mrs.
Mary Scott Hartje. Helen's direct ex-
animation ended this afternoon after
counsel for the libelant had introduced
a number of letters said to have been
written by her. and which prove, ac-
cording to the counsel for Hartje. khat
Helen Scott had knowledge of the al
legged relations between Mrs. Hartie
and tom" Nadine. Helen denied the
authorship of all but two of these let
ters.
Attorney John Freeman, for Mrs
Mary Scott Hartje, the respondent
openly charged the other side with
having stolen certain papers from his
office. Counsel for Augustus Hartje
the millionaire libelant in the case de-
clared that this charge was false and
Attorney Ferguson said he could prove
that the papers were not taken from
Freemans office, but were picked up
outside that place, whore they had been
carelessly left.
ORDERED TO RETURN PAPERS.
Eventually Attorney w. B. Rogers,
Tor the 1DeIanI, WdS1 compelled TO
turn to Freeman, by order of the court
a paper prepared in Freeman's office
as we'll as a letter of Freeman's, which
the latter claimed had been surrepti-
tiously taken from his office.
The "other Mary" servant girl, who
was an intimate of Thomas Nadine, the
CO. respondent, made her first appear
ance on the stand today. She testified
that it was she who telephoned to Ma
dino vUhi1a he working in ixyar
stable and who wrote to him, some
times as often as twice week.
Toward the close of Helen Scott's
examination Attorney Rogers sprung
surprise upon the attorneys for the de-
fense by producing number of mutt
lated letters, the parts of which had
been pasted together. The letters were
written upon the stationery of the Ho-
tel Windsor and the Florence Villa and
were addressed to dearest Mary" The
witness admitted that several of the
new exhibits had been written by her
self, but denied the authorship of
others, although she said the hand
writing looked like hers.
IN HER SISTERS CONFIDENCE.
Rogers stated that his object in pro-
ducing the letters was to show that,
despite other previous denials on the
witness stand, the witness had shown
that Mrs. Hartje and Tom Nadine
were in correspondence with one an
other. and that the letters written by
Helen to Mrs. Hartje would show the
truth of his statement
Court was then adjourned in order
that counsel for the defense might have
an opportunity of examining the new
exhibits.
During the course of her examina-
tion Helen Scott was asked by Freeman
whether or not she had written in one
Of her alleged letters to Mrs. Hartje a
statement that she Mrs. Hartje) and
Tom" Nadine would one day be man
and wife. but that they would have to
wait some time. Helen strenuously
denied that she had done so
