MRS. CUOAHY
WANTS DIVORCE
Is Gathering Evidence Against
Man Who Slashed Her
Friend Lillis

Kansas City. Aug. S.-A visit of de-
tectfves to the Cudahy home. 100 East
1hirty-siXth street, and their ques-
tioning of the maids there about Mrs.
Cudahv's conduct in the home and her
treatment Of the children, has given
rise to the report that an action for
divorce is contemplated by Jack"
Cudahy. Also. the report has come
that Mrs. Cudahy has employed de-
tectives to collect evidence against
her husband to use in a petition for
divorce. R. ]. Ingraham, attorney for
Mrs. Cudahy, did not deny that such
efforts were being made by Mrs. Cud-
ahy. Mrs. Cudahy, however. denies
that she has taken any steps toward
a legal separation from her husband.
Maids at the Cudahy home said yes
terday that men who said they were
detectives called at the Cudahy home
and asked them questions about Mrs.
Cudahy's conduct before the cutting
incident in the Cudahy home. The
men did not say for whom they were
collecting the evidence.
Mrs. Cudahy Denies 1t.
Il haven't heard a thing about any
action being brought by Mr.. Cudahy."
Mrs. Cudahy said at her home last
night, and ! don't believe any action
will he brought by him. He has no
reason for bringing any action. Mr..
Cudahy and have corresponded in
an indirect way. but he never has
mentioned a divorce. l don't believe
he would say anything about it ii he
were to bring such action. haven't
started any action and | haven't enl-
ployed detectives. believe he knows
that I am taking good care of the
children and besides he sees them
every time he is in town. send them
down in our machine and Mr.. Cudahy
brings them back in taxicab. There
Is no prospect of our ever living to-
gether again."
II can't say whether any action has
been started towards a divorce" R. j.
Ingraham. attorney for Mrs. Cudahy,
said last night. "No, will not say
any action has not been brought. 1
can't say professionally that Mr..
Cudahay has not take nsteps toward
obtaining divorce from Mrs. Cudahy.
l can't make any statement In regard
to the matter"
Lillis Affair Not Factor?
1t Is generally believed that the Lii
lis incident in the Cudahy home last
April is not to be made factor in
the action for divorce.
At the Hotel Baltimore last night
Mr.. Cudahy was reported to be on his
farm in Bolton. Mo-. and at his farm
he was said to be In Kansas City.
General John c. Gown and Mrs.
Gown of Omaha were IN Kansas City
yesterday. visiting their daughter,
Mrs. Cudahy, but they said the visit
had no connection with the report
that Mrs. Cudhay would try for a d.
vorce. They will leave today for
trip In Michigan.
