Mrs. Hart Mckee as Well as Hus-
band Contributor to Unhap-
piness of Household.
RECONCILIATION IMPOSSIBLE.
He Was Guilty OF Violence While She
Unwarrcntedly Charged Him
With Taking Jewels.

Paris, May 1.-THE court today In
granting the Hart Mckee divorce finds
that both Mr.. and Mrs. Mckee had
contributed to the unhappiness of their
household. Mrs. Mckee is given the
custody of their child, with the pro-
vision that Mr.. Mckee be allowed TO
have the child one month yearly as
we'll as being permitted to see 1t twice
a week, if living In the same city or
town.
The court also found that Mr. Nc
KEGS charges that Col. Baxter and
Mrs Mckee, his daughter, had in
spired libellous articles against him
In the American newspapers We're not
proved and dismissed the case. Mr.
Mckee was ordered to contribute 81 900
francs monthly for the special sup
port of his child.
The divorce suit was brought in this
city by Mrs. A. Hart Mckee, formerly
Mrs. Hugh Tevis.
The court was OF the opinion that
reconciliation between the McKees
was impossible go a separation was the
wisest thing. 1t found the husband
guilty of violence and OF having COM
mitted grave wrongs towards his wife,
saying he had yielded on the slightest
provocation to tho impulses OF his
vicious nature. lie had aggravated
these wrongs by bringing charges
against his wife which he could not
prove, az well as by having read IN
court his wife's love letters. which
elementary decency" should have pre-
vented him from making public.
The court found that the wife on her
side unwarrantedly attacked her hus-
band by making charges In connection
with the disappearance OF her jewels
and other property, charges which were
entirely disproved
The tribunal referred 10 the notorial
court all financial questions pending
between Mr.. and Mrs. Mckee.
The court divided tho costs between
the plaintiff and the defendant The
formal decision reads ms follows:
The court grants the divorce az the
request and In the Interest OF both
parties"

THAW CASE.
Opened This Morning With Both Sides
Anxious for its Conclusion.

Poughkeepsie, N Y. May 14.--The
opening of the Thaw habeas corpus
hearing today after many delays,
found Thaw and his representatives
and Dist.-Atty. Jerome's forces equal
~ ready to hasten the issue to n con-
clusion. The elder Mrs. Thaw has
been here for several days. visiting
her son AT the county jail. and having
extended talks with him. She still
maintains confidence as TO the final
outcome. Thaw's stay in the quar-
ters of the sheriff in the county Jail
has been much of a relief from the
hardships of life in the Matteawan In
sane asylum and the Tombs, and his
appearance today showed marked inn
provement.
Admission TO the court was restrict
ed to persons holding passes issued by
the sheriff.
As outlined in the Associated Press
dispatches last week, Thaw's counsel
contended that Justice Bowling did
not conform To the legal requirements
when he committed Thaw 10 Mattea-
wan. They claim. therefore, that he
is being deprived of his liberty with
out due process of law. They ask
Justice Morschauser TO first pass upon
this question before examining wit
nesses to determine Thaw's present
mental condition.

ton to the eradication of the mosquito
and the destruction of its breeding
places, n thorough screening of the
buildings and the use of quinine by
army surgeons at Forts Hunt and
Washington, on the Potomac river dur
ing the year has resulted in "a very de-
cided reduction of the sick rate. Last
year those posts We're distinguished by

through the efforts OF the medical Of
ficers the sick rate from malarial
fever at Fort Washington have been
reduced to less than one-half of the
preceding year. while the reduction AT
Fort Hunt has been To about one-third.
In all respects the showing is most sat

duced, the indications being that 1t will
not be much more than one-half of the
