former instructor in German at Harvard
university, who vanished in Chicago in
April, 1906, when charged by the police
with having killed his wife with poison

Correspondents of The World in va
rious places whore Holt has studied or
taught reported Sunday night that there
was no clue to him in any Of those places
as far as 1905, the time of the alleged
Muenter poisoning.
In Chicago Sunday The Tribune, in an
extra edition, published an interview with
a man describing himself as a college
mate of Muenter in the University of
Chicago. This man was quoted as say
ing:

took his degree of A. B. at the Universe

MUST live WITH HIM
White Woman Refused q DfvOrc
From Her Black Husband.

Abilene, Kan, Jan. 23.-An inter-
esting divorce proceeding was heard
in Judge r. L. Kings district court
here Thursday. Luda Ann Tucker
sued Lee w. Tucker for a separation
and a division of their farming prop
erty. She charged her husband with
non-support and gross neglect of duty.
Judge King sustained a demurrer
for the defendant.
The interesting part of the case
arose from the fact that the husband
is a colored man and the wife white.
They were married at Salina in 1897
and to their union were born seven
children, now ranging in age from 5
to 16 years.
The fuckers live about six miles
south of town. The wife alleged that
although Tucker made considerable
money he would not properly care for
her and the children and further al
leges that he did not treat her as a
wife in late years.
