PARENTS CAN
STOP MARRIAGE
Judge, Dismissing Kleist Suit,
Says They're Not RESPONSE
BILE for Child's Love.

NEW YORK, April-29-The $780,
900 damage suit brought against Ed
ward N. Breitung, capitalist, of Mar
quette, Mich, and his wife by Max
Frederick Kleist, their son-in-law, was
dismissed by Federal Judge Hough.
Kleist charged his parents-in-law with
alternating his wife's affections.
In dismissing the suit after the evil
dence was all in, Judge Hough read a
lengthy opinion, in which he said the
parents were in no way obliged to &C.
cept the conduct of son-in-law.
The court ruled that Kleist had fail
ed to prove any improper act on the
part of the defendants in their treat
ment of their child. Kleist's attorney
announced that he would appeal.
|. Couple Married in 1918.
Kleist and Miss Breitung were mar
ried in November, 1913. Prior to his
marriage to the capitalists daughter
Kleist had been coachman employed
by neighbor of Mr.. Breitung in Mar
quette.
"This case presents an opportunity"
said Judge Hough in his opinion dis
missing the case, "to put in practice a
theory of law which will minimize the
sordid demands for litigation of this
kind. Parents are not responsible for
lack of affection nor are they respons-
ible for an abundance Of affection for
them which might outweigh the affec-
ton the child might have for the
spouse.
Calls Parents Blameless.
"No parent is bound, in fear of
suit, to approve his child's marriage
or to close his house to his own child
or to admit to that house the consort,
male or female, chosen by his child.
1t is my opinion that the parents in
this situation are not subject to criti-
cism by either judge or jury. fail
to see any act done by the defendants
injurious to the plaintiff or actuated
by any other motive than proper re-
gard for their daughter.
Before the court dismissed the suit
Mrs. Breitung had testified she first
saw Kleist after the wedding when a
detective brought him to their hotel.
1.-THE detective called me aside," she
said, land apologized for coming late,
but said that Max was so Intoxicated
that he had to sober him up"
Says Juliet Was Sorry.
She denied ever having unbranded
him, as had been testified. The mother
quoted her daughter as having said to
Kleist: MAX, am sorry. I have seen
my mother and father"
"Then continued Mrs. Breitung,
aroused by anger. He said my daugh-
ter was flirt and he'd led him on"
"He said something about my family
that made me angry" continued Mrs.
Breitung. "He called my daughter a
name and when Mr.. Breitung arose to
make for the boy, I slipped between
them"
The witness denied having fight
with her daughter in which Juliet re-
ceived black eye, loose tooth and
a torn waist, as testified by another
witness.
Mrs. Breitung testified that Juliet
herself wanted the marriage annuled,
had said she was very sorry for what
she had done, and that Kleist had ar
ranged the wedding.

AMER|CUS MEN
ARE OPTIMISTIC
OVER PROSPECT
CONDITIONS MUCH BETTER THAN
LAST YEAR.

Americas merchants are far from
pessiHistic regarding business condi-
tons for the fall season, and while the
outlook, as the result of the war, is
not as bright as they would have it,
conditions here generally are far
better than in August last when hos
tilities opened without warning and
the South's great staple crop was put
in jeopardy. Our farmers and business
men weathered the tempestuous storm
then resulting, and are in far better
condition how.
Sumter and other counties contig-
uous will make abundant crops this
year, and with anything like fair pric
es Tor the cotton crop our people VIII
come out all right. The crop here is
very good indeed, and no other cotton
crop Vas ever made with such little
expense.
Last year at this time every farmer
had a crop of cotton which he had pro-
duced on a prospective selling basis of
10 cents per pound 1t was expensive
ly raised cotton, and these same farm
ers had very little to eat at home.
They expected to sell their cotton for
13 cents and buy their feed. So that
when Aug. / came around and Kaiser
Bill ordered everybody in the world on
short rations there was a panic.
We knew not what to do nor what to
expect. Now, we have settled down -
war conditions and are accustomed
to them. We have got our stride. We
are somewhat conservative, but talk
ing nourishment just the same.
We have cotton crop which some
people think will amount to twelve
million bales against sixteen and a
half million last year. The other four
and a half million bales of cotton have
been put in other crops. We raised
the cotton to sell for war prices. We
