WEST PALM BEACH, Fla., May 2---Mrs. Madeline Force Astor Dick Fiermonte, filed suit for divorce here today from Enzo Fiermonte, charging extreme cruelty. No mention was made in the papers filed of a $125,000 settlement which she was reported to have made on him when he sailed for Europe recently.

Mr. and Mrs. Fiermonte were married in November, 1933, in Doctors Hospital, where she was a patient suffering from a broken shoulder received in a fall. The marriage was the third for Mrs. Fiermonte. Her first husband was Colonel John Jacob Astor, who lost his life in the Titanic disaster in 1912. Her second husband was William K. Dick, a childhood friend. They were married at Bar Harbor, Me., in 1916 and were divorced in Nevada.

Mr. Fiermonte has also been married before. His first wife was Signora Tosaca Manetti Fiermonte of Rome, from whom he obtained a Reno divorce after a property settlement.
