2 FROM THE COURT HOUSE SUES FOR. ALIMONT. The hearing on the rule for alimony asked for by Mrs. Susan Phillippi in the divorce case of Jacob R. Phillippi against her was held in the main court room Monday afternoon.

At the trial of the case last spring, the Jury brought in a verdict that the facts In the case warranted a divorce on account of cruel treatment on the part of the wife. Mrs. Phillippi then asked for a new trial, which was refused at subsequent hearing1 in argument court. She next obtained a rule on her husband to show cause why alimony should not be paid her, which was beard this afternoon. At the opening of the hearing.

Mr. Kechtel asked for a decree In divorce in favor of Mr. Phillippi. Judge Er men trout said that as the jury had decided that the facts in the case warranted a decree and he saw no reason for disturbing their Judgment, which would therefore stand, the matter of the alimony asked for rested In the discretion of the Judge, and that lie would hear testimony on the subject. The first point on which testimony was heard was that on Mr.

Phillippi's Income, to prove that he was able to pay alimony. He testified that he owned eight houses one In fee simple and the other seven for life. The annual income from this source clear of expenses ought to be about $650, he said, but much of the rent he never re ceived; that they were all out of repair and most of the money he got in rent had to be put into the houses to keep them in rentable condition. Also, he said, on the security of these houses he had borrowed $1400 from friends, on which he had to pay five per cent interest, which still further reduced his income. On the question of the conduct of Mrs.

Phillippi since the separation, as af fecting her right to alimony, Mrs. Mary Sehaeffer was the first witness called by the libellant, Mr. Phillippi. She said she had known Mrs. Phillippi for a number of years and once had rooms in the same house with her, Mrs.

Phillippi living on the floor directly over her. She testified to some of the goings on in the house. Ksther Zeii was the next witness. She said she had known Mrs. Phillippi for the past nine years, part of which time she lived at 7th and Penn streets with her and did her housework.

She gave some testimony that was very damaging to Mrs. Phillippi's reputation. Mrs. Mary Ketterer, Mrs. Gertrude Hamer, Mrs.

Mary Dun lap and others told of various acts of Mrs. Phillippi's in a line with the former testimony. Mrs. Phillippi was next put on the stand in her own behalf, and denied nearly everything testified to by the other witnesses regarding her actions with other men. Judge Ermentrout said he would give his decision in the case next Monday morning.
