trial. Mrs. McReynolds testified that she
had received 81, 900 a month from her hus
band for household expenses. Her chief
fad was a violet farm. Mrs. McReynold5 >
said she always thought her husband was
a millionaire and she had not meant TO be
eXtravagent.
"The greatest mistake man can make, -
she said, 'fs to keep his wife in ignorance
of his business affairs. OF course, he does
IT because he wants to shield her from un-
pleasantness but 1t is not only mistake,
put an insult to a woman's mentality"
During McReynolds' long fight in the
courts he was devotedly aided by his wife.
The ground on which Mrs. McReyno!ds
now asks divorce is that her husband is a

FTyANCIER TAXES OWN LIFE
Ellwood Hance Of Detroit Shoots
Himself at His Home,
NO WARNING GIVEN OF INTENT
Private Affairs Involved and Out
slider Had Just Been Promoted
over Him in Union
Trust Company.

DETROIT. Mich, March 6.-Ellwood
Hance, first vice president of the Union
Trust company Of this city and former post
master of Detroit, shot and killed himself
early today in his home here. Friends say
that he had been greatly depressed oN Ner
his own financial affairs for some time.
Mr.. Hance rose about 6 o'clock from the
bed where he had, so far as was known,
slept quietly all night and purchased a
revolver. He retired to rear bedroom of
his home and there placed the muzzle
the revolver in his mouth and pulled the
trigger. The bullet crashed upward
through his head and death was instan-
taneous.
President F. w. Blair of the Union Trust
company and Henry Russell, one of tho
directors and the company's legal cousel,
deny emphatically that the affairs of the
Union Trust company are in any way in
volved by any of Mr. Hances financial
difficulties. They also deny that the al
fairs of the failed City Savings bank, for
which the Union Trust company is re-
ceiver, are entangled because of Mr.
Hances management.
Long vacation Planned.
Mr.. Hance was at his office yesterday
as usual, and spent the early evening at
cards with his family. The suicide came
just at the eve of a two or three months
vacation with salary, which the officers Of
the company were planning to give him.
Close friends say that Mr.. Hances per-
sonal financial affairs have been badly en-
tangled for some time and that he has been
undergoing a tremendous mental strain as
a result. About four weeks ago the Union
Trust company was in a measure reor-
ganized, and Frank w. Blair, auditor of
the Peoples State Savings bank was elected
president, which office had been vacant for
about a year since the death of William
c. Mcmillan.
While It is lntimated by some that dis
appointment over the elevation OF an out
side man over him in the Union Trust
company contributed largely to Mr. Hance's 8
depression, Henry Russell, director and
legal counsel, says that Mr.. Hance had
been told long before the election that he
could not be made head of the institution.
