HUBBY FORCED TO
DOWN COOKING

Answering his wife's petition for
an increase in the allowance for their
daughters maintenance, Joseph o.
Harvey today denied he had a large
income, or that he made $500 month,
as was alleged BY his wife, Mrs. Laura
V. Harvey.
The husband, represented by AttOr-
ney Henry F. WoOdard, says he has
not been able to make mo re than bare
living expenses, and that be now is in
actual debt. He says that for the
last eighteen months he has been
doing his own cooking and washing,
to meet his obligations. He denies
spending money on other women for
the reason he hasn't any to spend,
even II he wished to do so.
Mr. Harvey declares that his wife's
demand for more none yis simply a
cloak to require him to increase the
amount for, her support. while there
is no real intention of doing any
thing for the education Of their
daughter
The husband also stated that he
had been. urging his daughter to take
special work to help her make a liveli-
hood, but that she refuses to go to
any other school but a seminary,
which, the father says, is too eXpen-
sive. He refuses to let his wife han
die any money intended for the edu-
cation Of their daughter.
