day Police authorities in many states
have already begun to clamor for him.
His operations have kept him
in the swim for several years,
and it is known thus far that
bis nimble pen has netted him fully
$50, 600 He is an ingenious, cool, cal
culating and industrious operator,
banking upon the credulity of others.
He set himself up as a religious enthu-
siast, worming himself into the good
graces Of the members of churches and
societies by his earnest prayers and
exhortations. and then using these
very people to further his swindling
schemes.
The record of his operations reads
like romance Of the modern school.
His long freedom from capture is a
tribute to his genius.
Bakers real name is Robert e. Har-
vey. though his operations have been
conducted under various names.

STILL A MYSTERY.
The Identity of the Woman Killed at
Philadelphia Has Not Been
Satisfactorily Revealed.

PHILADELPHIA, Aug. IA driving
AZ ;ident in Fairmount park on Monday
evening which caused the instant death
of woman and the mystery surround
ing her identity has been giving the
coroner and police considerable work
for the past two days. On Monday
evening Joseph d. Smith, a married
man, and one bearing a reputable name
and church goer, made the acquaint
ance Of a woman at Riverside resort
and at her request took her for drive
in Fairmount park.
The woman was driving and ran into
another carriage and she was thrown
out and instantly killed by break
ing her neck. She was pretty
and well dressed, and as Smith knew
nothing of her, her body lay at the
morgue until last evening un-
claimed. Then man whose identity
has not been disclosed called at the
morgue and recognized the body as
that of woman who had lived in fur
nished rooms on Spring Garden street
under the name of Mrs. Kitty Covelle
At the address given by the man little
was about the woman, as she had lived
there only five weeks, and as she was
visited every evening by man who
was thought at the house to be her
husband.
Today man giving the name of L.
P. johnson at the address of 33 Bar
tram street, New York city, called at
the morgue and identified the body as
that of Mrs. Kate Alexander. johnson
said that the woman was divorced from
her husband, VINO is New Yorker,
and that she came of a good family in
that city and had relatives in Buffalo
and Troy. johnson said that the wo-
mans relatives in Troy had been noti-
fled by some one in this city that she
mad been killed and he had been sent
on to claim the body.
Johnson could not be found tonight
and the coroner declines to give any
information about the case. He re-
fused to say whether the name of
Alexander was the woman's maiden
name or that Of her divorced husband
The inquest in the case has not YET
| been held.
