OF the recovery Of Grace.
In searching for a possible motive
for trouble between Grace and his
wife, who is under a charge of attempt
to kill, the police have hit upon the
theory that they recently had financial
trouble.

contemplated trip to the eastern city
he would dispose of some of 1t. It is
declared that much of the money left
her by her former husband has been
spent and that she has mortgaged
her property.
Advices from Philadelphia quote her
from Grace in which he threatens mis-
wife unless she gave him money.

angry, but as necessary precaution
toward a man she thought to be de-
lirious and incapable of looking after
