The operations here Of the man
Dosing or Dotz, whose wife died at
Bsnwood under peculiar circumstances,
and who himself attempted to make 1t
appear that he had committed suicide
in the Ohio river. his clothes being
found on the Island shore, are well re-
membered here. The InteIligeneer
learns that Dotz was rearrested yestef-
day at Chicago, and interesting devei-
opments are now likely,
Martin Dotz, said to have married SIX
women, all but two OF whom are said to
be now living, was arrested in Chicago
yesterday, The police allege that Dotz
In Wheeling. under the name Of Henry
Doesing, married a woman who later
died under suspicious circumstances.
His watch and clothing were found on
the banks Of the Ohio river, but the
impression Of suicide thus given was
dispelled by his arrest in Chicago year
ago for dlsposing Of mortgaged goods.
Before reaching Chicago Dotz married
in milwaukee, Wis. Maxlmilliana-s herl,
a Chicago woman; Elizabeth Schmidt,
and Carolina Schneider. both of Mil
waukee. Upon obtaining their money,
the allegation runs, he left them. In
Chicago he took to wife woman worth
$4,000. She died suddenly. willing her
property to Dotz, then known as Fred
Hob. His next wife was South Side,
Chicago. woman, possessed of $1,000.
His arrest at this point cut short his
matrimonial experiences. During the
year he has been in the Bridewer. the
police have been gathering evidence
against him.
