tain if the credentials found among
Perrot's effects are authenticated by

REPORTER HAS ROMANCE
MAN WHO WROTE OF MARITAL
TROUBLES OF HARTJE AND
WIFE EXPECTED TO MARRY
THE FAIR oIvoRcEE,

Pittsburg, July 1S.-After sitting in
the game OF hearts between Augustus
Hartje, the multi-millionaire paper
manufacturer, and his handsome wife
Mary Kenny Scott Hartje. whose mari,
tai troubles have filled the columns of
newspapers for the past five years
with sensational disclosures, Charles
Gillespie, a newspaper man, who was
assigned to the story when the trouble
first broke out, is expected to supplant
the millionaire and become the hus-
band of Mrs Hartje
According to the terms of divorce,
agreed upon outside of court. Mrs.
Hartje will receive from her husband
the income from 100000 during her
life.
Mr.. Gillespie recently retired from
newspaper work and he is now said to
be engaged in real estate business.
The divorce suit of Augustus Hartje
who sought to be separated from his
wife on the grounds of infidelity was
one of the most stubbornly fought
suits of it's kind in the history of
Pennsylvania After repeated failures
Mr.. Hartje appealed his case to the
supreme court, but there met with like
result.
Mrs Hartje had filed counter suit
on similar grounds, and the hearing OF
this was postponed from time to time
| because of the failure of Mrs. Hartje
to appear in court. Unexpectedly an
agreement between the principals was
secured by the attorneys, and Mrs.
Hartje's attorneys insisted that she
withdraw the graver charges and seek
divorce on the grounds of desertion
alone. Mr.. Hartje agreed not to oppose
divorce if sought on such grounds
and the matter of financial settlement
was readily agreed upon.
Mr.. Hartje says he has heard of the
| arrangements for the marriage. Mrs
Hartje evades by saying, Il have had
enough, anyway. MIR. Gillespie is a
distant relative"
The first intimtaion that Mr.. GILES
pies associates had of the affair came
after nearly two years of the court pro
cedures, when Mrs. Hartje was in Flo
rida, and Mr.. Gillespie pleading i'll
health, asked for leave Of absence, and
was supposed to be quietly recuperat
| ing somewhere in West Virginia
Later his employers learned he had
gone to Florida and joined Mrs. Hartje
there.
