HARTE'S SUICIDE LAID
TO GRIEVING FOR WIFE
Woman He Abandoned in America
Never Out of Writer'S Thought,

By Radio to The Star and New York World.
PARIS. November 28.-Those who
knew young Richard Bret Harte,
grandson of the American writer, are
putting forward a new version of the
Latin Quarter tragedy Of which he
was the willing victim.
The first accounts announced that
Harte had committed suicide because
he had not received letter from p
girl he loved and with whom he had
quarreled. Probably that was true
But it only partly told the tale
His dependency was chronic, for
there was another woman in the case
his wife-whom he had left in the
United States.
Harte had left his wife and came to
Paris. where he plunged into the
frothy. artificial life of the Latin
Quarter with all its distractions. He
drifted into a romance with a pretty
French actress, Germaine D., with
whom apparently he was happy.
But he could not forget the cir
he had made his wife. ltemOrse over
! his abandonment of her preyed un
ceasingly on his mind. He became
moody. taciturn and Impressions BILE

| when Germaine's promised letter OF
reconciliation failed to arrive, Hartt
