TROUBLE FOR MILLIONAIRE SMELTER MAN IF FORMER WIFE GETS DIVORCE ANNULLED

Mrs. Grace Gaageabelm. Mr. William Guggenheim, millionaire smelter man, awaits with great anxiety the decision of a Chicago court on an action brought by his first wife, Grace Guggenheim. Mrs. Guggenheim secured a divorce in Chicago in 1901 when, according to her story, her legal residence was In New York. At that time Guggenheim, who was apparently more anxious that the divorce be secured then she was, paid her $150,000 alimony. When Mrs. Guggenheim learned some years later that the divorce she got probably was worthless she began an action for its annulment. The decision of the Chicago court will be rendered on January 11.
