nARTJE SAYS HIS WIFE
TRIED TO POISON him
New Sensations Sprung the Famous Pttsburg D-
vorce Cass-Court was on the Verge Of Sustain.
ing the Verdict of the Lower Court When
New Evidence is Discovered.

Pittsburg, Oct. S.-Just on tn
eve OF the handing down of {
decision by the superior court il
the divorce suit Of Augustus Hartj,
against his. beautiful wife, Mar,
Scott Hartie, sensational evidenc,
was fled in Philadelphia OH Saturi
day, with the superior court b,
Hartje, which caused the superior
court Judges TO hold back the de.
cision. 1t is understood that tn,
entire court agreed in the finding
and that it upheld the lower court
which refused to grant divorce
to Hartje.
The new evidence, however, ma,
result in AN entirely new decision
and cause the superior court t.
at least grant a new trial to thf
millionaire paper manufactures. TIL
new evidence consists mainly OF
letters alleged to have been write,
by Mrs. Hartje's two sisters, Heller
and Ida, to- Howard Lappe, to WHOM
Ida was engaged to be married and
with whom she eloped to Youngs
town, o., only to be brought back
by hcr father before the ceremon,
was performed. 1t is alleged b.,
Hartje that he purchased these
letters from Lappe, whose attentions
to Miss Ida have ceased.
There is also a sensational letter
said to have been written to Ton
Nadine by Mrs. Hartie in which
are startling statements regarding
the illness of Hartie, which lead,
ITO the belief that an attempt was
made to poison.
Alleged letters from Ida Scott cor
tain probably the most sensationa,
evidences. 1t appears in these let
ters that they actually held up 9
scheme to blackmail their own faith
or. compelling him to give tn an
money or they would refuse TO tes
tfv for their sister and testif,
instead fer Hartie thus telling the
truth, as the letter intimates.
The scheme of blackmail is al
legged to have been carried to the
extent of threatening the attorney,
FOR Mrs. Hartie. as her letter Il
Ia"pe signed "Helcn" tells of how
~. M. F." apparently Attorne,
John NJ. Freeman, had beer
frightened when they walked il
the Office and how scme persor
"had been brought to time. +"
Another sensational letter from
Tda" is submitted in which she
tells Lanpe that they will not now
90 to Mrs. Hartje with their testi
mony since "papa has fixed it mp
the inference being that the girls
i'hd been promised money which
they wrote they would demand al
the price Of their silence.
Nor is it denied bv Mrs. Hart
les father that his 16-year-olt
laughter did demand Of him &
monthly allowance not onlv for her
self but for Howard w. Lappe

GIRL WAS
MURDERED
Relatives of Miss Gertrude
Dayton Believe There
was a Conspiracy.

Cleveland, Oct. Sd. +. Nickel
yey, brother of Miss McKelvey,
known as Gertrude Dayton, who was
murdered in the orient has written
to Congressman James Kennedy
from Denver, saving that he had
information which confirms the
story that his sister was murdered
and her body placed in a trunk,
whore ii was found. He has fur
nished photograph of his sister
with man whom he believes to
be the suspect under arrest for the
murder, sending it to the United
States Consul Wilder at Hongkong
for Identification The family be-
lieves that there are others in the
conspiracy to take the girls life
'nd that it will be so proven when
the case comes TO trial.
Arrangements will be made Ia
have the body brought back as soon
vs. possible and it will be buried
here. "I want to have the ease
prosecuted to- the extreme limit
>f the law" he wrote Congressman
Kennedy. "I can hardly afford the
cxpense Of going to Hongkong,
still I think l should go. +"

Gall and Foraker victories in the
other counties of the state where
legislators are to be elected will
place "Fire Alarm" Foraker in the
saddle in Ohio and will give him
such an opportunity to build up
a machine that he will be returned
to the senate for another term. Of
what piece of legislation which has
had a direct bearing upon Ohio,
has "Old Unconstitutional" been
the father? Has he ever advocated
single reform? His policy has
been to "stand pat"., Jet well
enough alone and get onto the
Foraker band wagon. Upon the
other hand, look at the measures
which Tom johnson has fathered
and which have been adopted.
There is the two-cent fare law,
the county salary law and the anti
pass law. 1t is true that some years
ago he was an advocate OF single
tax, but he has not endeavored to
inject it into u campaign in re-
cent years. We do not point out
these facts to defend Tom l..
Johnson or TO combat the Foraker
organs contention that a demo
cratic victory this tbll means
placing Johnson in control, but
merely to show that even if il were
true that Johnson would be plac-
ed in that position which is the
envy of every republican, it would
not be such great calamity as
I ,lacing Senator Foraker in like
osition.

DARK
CORNER
Is Found by the Kellogg
Searchlight at New
York.

New York, Oct. S.-The Kellogg
searchlight found its way into darkest
Standard Oil today, when the first
light was thrown upon the mysterious
operations of the liquidating trus-
tees, who had charge OF the concern
from 1892 until 1899. Through the
labels of figures prepared by the gov
ernment experts from books at 26
Broadway, Inquisitor Kellogg believes
he has proved that for at least five
years after the court ordered the old
trust dissolved, 1t continued to exist.
lClarence G.. Fay, assistant controller
|of the Standard identified the tables.

He Says His Wife Treats Him
Badly and Spends Too
Much Money.

Norman s. Fairweather has brought
a divorce suit against Corinne A. Fair
weather, charging her in the libel with
i'll treatment of him. He also accuses
! her of recklessness and extravaganza
| in personal and household expendi-
lures.
The parties We're married at Homo
lulu on December 27, 1905. Mrs. Fair
weather was formerly the wife of w.
s. Bartlett, a well-knoWn hotel and
saloon man, whom she divorced and
who afterward went to Kalaupapa,
Molokai. The libelant is Dr.. Fair
weather, a local dentist.
From the time of marriage the par
ties in the present case lived together
as husband and wife, the libel states,
until Sunday the gath day of Novem-
ber-that is last Sunday-at which time
the Iibelant says he was forced and
compelled" to separate from the Ii
belize, and left the said libelee and
ceased to live with her because of her
i'll treatment of him the said libelant,
beara ble''
In specifying their infelicity more
particularly DR.. Fairweather says that
the misunderstanding between them
began about the month of February,
1906, when she commenced to treat him
"cold1y and to find fault with him in
and about minor matters connected
with the management OF the household
and the amount to be supplied for
household expenses and apparel
She, it is alleged, exhibited consid-
cradle temper and scolded the libelant
nearly every day from that time dewn
to and until the present day, and
found fault with his conduct and
mode of living and so rendered this
libelant miserable and unhappy, and
her conduct became and was of such
a character that this 1ibelant in des-
peratfon was forced and compelled to
leave her." as already stated.
Another count argues the incompati-
bility of temper of the couple, which
resulted in straining their marriage
relations and rendering the lives of
both extremely unhappy. It is speci-
fed further that the wife in October
and November this year exhibited tenn
per and anger toward the husband ac-
with improper language.
In the count relating extravaganza
it is alleged that Mrs. Fairweather ex-
pended more money for household ex-
penses and dress than the income of
warranted.
Separation from bed and board is
prayed for.
A.
