NewspaperSep, 1902Chicago, Sept. 3.—While George Richard Houghton, member of the Chicago club, the Union League club, and a dozen other organizations and once a spectacular trader on the board of trade, was preparing his petition in Atlanta, Ga., for a divorce, so that he might marry the daughter of one of the officials of the Georgia Central railway, Mrs. Houghton stepped upon the scene to-day and secured a divorce herself. It was granted by Judge Kavanaugh and with it went an order for alimony amounting to $21,500. What Mr. Houghton will say may be imagined better than expressed. But what Oconomowoc and Milwaukee will say will not be less interesting. It was in the latter town that Grace Kirby and George Houghton were married, and it was at the Wisconsin resort that they entertained their friends for several summers. In their summer cottage on the lake the Houghtons entertained the men who are now leaders of the big board of trade movements. There were dances and suppers and drives through the woods, to say nothing of the attending parties and, as Mrs. Houghton said, when the season was over a man had to be hired to clear the wine bottles from the grounds. Mrs. Houghton is the daughter of Colonel Kirby, whose hotel has stood in Milwaukee for over forty years. Her husband was the son of George Houghton, bank president and real estate dealer, who died five months ago, leaving a fortune estimated at $800,000. Colonel Kirby was wealthy, too, but he lost the greater part of his fortune. Still, he left no inconsiderable sum, and when he died, his bequest of the bulk of it to his son. Oak Kirby, had attached to it the proviso, according to Mrs. Houghton, that the young man leave his wife. The bequests to the others amounted to practically nothing. In the divorce ends a romance which, to every one who knew the characters, promised as happy an ending as any told in prose or poetry. Miss Kirby was the prettiest girl in Milwaukee; Houghton was the son of the richest man there. She was pretty, he was clever, and both had money. From this Milwaukee deduced only one thing—that they must be an ideal couple. Success on the Milwaukee board of trade turned Houghton's head. He came to Chicago and turned his attention to the giants and battled with them. For a time he won. His first coup came in 1885, when he made, according to reliable authority $125,000 in one day. In March, two years later, it is said that he made twice that sum, but while it is not denied that he quit winner by a margin that could be counted only by thousands, the exact amount of his profits never was known except to himself. Yet whether Houghton himself knew his profits is a question. He was spending money right and left and if there had been more points to the compass than there are, doubtless he would have scattered some of his coin in one of those directions. He purchased a home at Oconomowoc, then a new resort for Chicagoans, and Invited all his friends and many others up there. It wasn't long after the Houghtons began to entertain in this manner before it became a center of interest for the Chicago newspapers. Tales nearly as strange as a station agent can tell began to appear, and about the same time that this undesirable notoriety came, Houghton got on the wrong side of the market on the board of trade. It took a long time to down him. because his father with his millions was back of him, but finally the crash came, and, unable to met his obligations he was forced to suspend business. In the meantime, four sons had come to the Houghtons. One of them now is paying teller of the Milwaukee National bank. Another Is connected with a wire company there. One is in the university of Wisconsin at Madison and another graduated at the head of his class last June. It was In 1890 that the Houghtons separated. This was shortly after his failure, and since then husband and wife have lived apart. Not quite two years ago he went to Atlanta, Ga., and there. It seems, he met Miss Rachel Montgomery, daughter of one of the officials of the Georgia Central railway. Five days ago Mrs. Houghton found that her husband was about to apply for a decree of divorce. She hurried to her lawyers, Foley & Wellman, and they drew up her bill, which was presented to Judge Kavanaugh on Saturday. The charge was desertion, and alimony to the amount of $21,500 was granted.
