ALLEGES CRUELTY; ASKS ,
SEPARATE MAIN ENAANCCE
Four Pretty Little Children OF lil-
Mated Pair Play About Corridors
While Parents Accuse
Each Other

Scenes of animated excitement and
bitter feeling prevailed in Judge
George H. Hutton's department. OF the
superior court yesterday during the
trial of the case of Teresa M. Hartley
against her husband, Frank J. Hartley
for separate maintenance.
The wife occupied the witness stand
during the entire day and told OF her
treatment by her husband. Hartley
was there with his attorneys to contest
the case and retaliated with accusa-
tions of repeated unfaithfulness on the
part of his wife.
While the parents faced each other
with angry words and looks the four
pretty children of the ill-mated pair
were playing in the Railways of the
court house, where they were in the
custody of friend of Mrs. Hartley.
In her complaint the wife tells
story of repeated brutal treatment and
a use by her husband, with whom she
says she is afraid to live
The couple appeared last December
before Judge Monroe asking for
divorce, but their case could not be
heard at that time because they had
not lived continuously one year in the
state The ac.ion begun yesterday Tor
separate maintenance Is based on an
implied contract which Mrs. Hartley
claims they entered and by which they
were to live separately. the husband te
support her and the children and was
to be a1lowed>to see the children every
afternoon between and o'clock.
Mrs. Hartley claimed she left hel
husband once before and went to Kan
sas City, but he persuaded her to come
back to him. promising that he would
be good to her. II told him was
afraid of him, but he said he would
treat me all right and so I came out to
Los Angeles" said the plaintiff on the
witness stand yesterday.
Mrs Hartley asks for $40 per week
for the maintenance of herself and
children. The case will be continued
today and the husband will probably
be put on the witness stand.
