      Hotel Register In Divorce Suit

      Mrs. Maud V. Bass charges her husband, William F. Bass, with registering at a hotel with another woman as ?W.F. Bass and wife,? in a divorce bill filed in the Third Circuit Court this morning. The other woman was Kittle Price, the bill sets out.
      Mrs. Bass says she found a number of letters to her husband from the woman, most of them signed ?Kit?. All of them were written in very endearing terms, she says. Mrs. Bass further claims that when she remonstrated with her husband he admitted the offense and she says she left him at that time.
