The Hull-MclCeen alimony cue hs,S
been settled out of court.
C. V. Hull had sued to annul the dl
'oree and alimony of $31. WO gU-en Ms wife,
now Mrs. W. R. ItcKsen. and the Mc
Keen reflated the action.
The Information la that pressure
brought from the outstdo led to the set
tlement McKeen 1b preildent of the Mc
Keen Motor Car company, a Harrlmiin
concern. President Mohler of the Union
Pacific, It Is raid, acting In co-operation
with the wish of Mrs. E. II. Harriman,
Iind a part In urging negotiations for
cessation of the sensational proceeding!.
Details Not Complete.
Some details of the settlement terms
have not yet been arranged, attorneys
for tuo McKeettt having refused to enter ;
upon speclflo financial .considerations
until after Hull's suit should have been
dismissed. Though It Is said to be ex
tremely unlikely that the litigants will
fall to reach agreeable terms, Hull's at
torneys Uft open a way to renew hoslll
ties If in the future It shall be desired to
do bo. They moved to dismiss the suit,
but the motion was to dismiss without
prejudice to the institution of a new
action of a nature Identical with that ot
cthe old.
Attorneys for Hull went before Judge
A. O Troup of the equity division of the
district court and moved dismissal at 11
hi clock yesterday. Judge Troup dis
missed the action and taxed the costs
to the plaintiff Hull. The costs are In
excess ot ISO, the principal Items being i
for taking of voluminous depositions.
John L. Webster, of counsel for Mr. '
and Mrs. McKeen, said there had 'been
no special agreement on terms of settle
ment. Tin Compromise Webster.
"We never have proposed compromls,"
said Mr. Webster. "From the time Mr.
Hull started this action until now we
have refused, to consider any sort of conv
promise , until the suit should be dis
missed. -In duty to our client, Mrs. Mo-.
Keen, we took the position from the first
.that her Rood name! should be protected
Above all elm and we should not enter j
upon tiny negotiations regarding the!
financial side of iho case until the
charges against Mrs. McKeen should be I
withdrawn.''
With dismissal of Hull's action came
lutbmntlcally dissolution of an Injunction
restraining Mrs. McKeen from collecting
n $4,000 alimony Installment, which, under
the contract between her and Hull be
came due last April. The contract now
In in full force and effoct, so far as
l,to records of tho district court show;
Iho $J,0 alimony Is now seven months
pverdue and another installment of 96,000
Mil become payable on April 1, IMS. The
Installment due on Aprlll 1, this year, has
io t been paid, so far an the records show.
Several Conferences.
The end of the Hull-McKen suit fol
lowed a series ot conferences extending
through two days. Friends and associates
of both plaintiff and defendants urged
compromise. One ot Oia conferences was
held In the Union Paeitlo headquarters.
President Mohler and other officials of
tho Union Pacific railroad Impressed
upon the litigants the advisability and
desirability ot settlement It la sntd that
Mrs. E. H. Harriman, who succeeded to
her late husband's Interests In the Union
Pacific, had oxpreesed her displeasure
with the notoriety the case was bringing
( to persons Identified with the railroad.

"THE DRAMA OF MY LIFE''
In Two Parts
1- "THE TALK OF THE WALLS,,
By IVAN NARODNY
Illuilration from Photograph of Ihe Author
' Narodny was four years in solitary confinement four years during
which ho spoke to no one but his keeper, and did not leave his coll' except for
fifteen minutes each day. Ivan Narodny was, and is, a leader of tho revolu
tionary movement In Russia. For his devotion to tho cause of democratic government,
he was not only imprisoned, but came within the shadow of tho gallows. Tho drama of,
his lifo is a human document of surprising Interest. In this first installment, which he
calls "Tho Talk of the Walls", he tells us how ho and his fellow prisoners,, converses
by meanB of a codo of telegraphic taps; he tells of keeping a diary by writing on hand
kerchiofs with his own blood. Ho tells of making friends of a dove, a mouse and a fly.
It Is a true record, far more fascinating than fiction could ever hope to be.
"THE GHOST OF SHAFT 2"
By ARTHUR HAYWOOD
MustratlonM by Rollin Crampton
This is a story 'way off the beaten-track. The Scene is laid in a South
African mining camp. The ghost mystery will puzzle. you up to the las't.par
ograph as fully, as It puzzled tho hero and ho had some lively adventures before he
solved It. Tho illustrations by Rollin Crampton have caught tho spirit of-the Dark Con

THE ANSWER"
. ' By' CRITTENDEN MARRIOTT - - , --
llla$tralion by Frederick A. Duncan.
A story of optimism and good cheer. It carries a lesson for every wo
man, and every man, too. A woman who has seen all her- children marry
and mako homes of their own, is tempted to fear that her usefulness is ended. Tho turn
that Mr. Marriott gives to his plot proves that no ono can say -that tho 'world has no work
fjOr him to do. Truly an "Answer" to a condltton that has occurred time and time again
in overy-day life. .
