TELLS STRANGE
TALE OF CRUELTY
WIFE SAYS HUSBAND BROKE
HER RIBS
Declares That He Kicked and Abused
Her In Many Ways-PIalntlf's
Little Son the star
Witness

Since their wedding day, nearly fif-
teen years ago. Emma l.. Conner and
her husband Edmond, have not dwelt
in unbroken felicity.
Mrs. Conner yesterday sought to be
released from the matrimonial alliance,
at the hands of Judge Conrey in the
superior court, on the grounds of
cruelty and desertion.
A tale of broken ribs, legs, arms
and fingers was injected into the pro-
ceedings, and the plaintiff left the
court apparently the most abused wo-
man that has ever appeared in the
divorce courts of this county.
According to her tale of woe, broken
bone was merely an everyday oc-
currence in the progress of her matri-
monial career.
She insisted that Conner has an
irascible temper. When his tea was
not sweetened i'm the proper degree.
he is said to have expressed his dis
approval by kicking his spouse in the
ribs.
she asserted that on one occasion
two ribs were broken and that she
was confined to her room for many
long weeks, undergoing repairs.
Finally when the bones were mended,
Mrs. Conner resumed her customary
position in the household, only to be
knocked down and kicked, whereby
the bones were again shattered.
"He beat me so much that I couldn't
see straight" was the remarkable dec
laration of the witness.
When Mrs. Conner objected to his
uncomplimentary language in the pres
ence of her friends, Conner informed
her that "he would hit her one for
luck
Conner's lucky star, however failed
to work out to the same advantage
to his spouse, for on this occasion she
was incapacitated from attending to
her household duties, having sustained
a broken arm and finger.
Peace and quiet reigned over the
Conner abode, it is said, until the fem
mine side of the alliance had COM
pleted repairs and then trouble began
to brew.
Mrs. Conner told the court that it
was her husbands delight to inpei
his fist against her nose 'for luck"
The plaintiffs little son, John, hardly
12 years of age, proved to be the star
witness in the case.
1t appears that on one occasion, while
his father was administering punish
ment to his mother he rushed to the
scene, and with his little wooden
hatchet he raped for order on his
fathers head.
Conner on that occasion bade his
son goodbye and taking one more
blow for luck, at his wife, he left for
parts unknown.
Judge Conrey was not entirely salts
fled with the corroborative nature of
the evidence adduced, but in order to
allow Mrs. Conner to gain her freedom,
he continued the case for one week.

FIND EVIDENCE
OF MORE FRAUDS
GROVES RECORD is BEING
INVESTIGATED
Woman Is Alleged to Have Been Ap-
preached by an Attorney and
Offered Deed for Nom-
inal Sum

Each days search of the records
brings forth additional evidence which
tends to stamp Attorney A. F. Groves,
now confined in the city jail on the
charge of forgery, as the most notori-
Gus forged ded swindler in the history
of this section" was the announcement
at the district attorneys office yester-
day.
Another transfer Of property along
illegitimate lines was brought to light
yesterday, and the indications are that
Groves has operated more extensively
in Los Angeles than was at first sup
posed
In the forged instrument detected
yesterday by Deputy District Attor-
ney Fleming, Thomas Gwynne is named
as the grantor of certain property in
Whittier to S. Moore, and the proper
ty is still in his name.
The name Moore is fictitious. The
deed appears to have been executed at
Hamilton, O., and after having been
recorded it was sent to Box 144, Station
C, Los Angeles, which as silent
partner, has aided Groves in his al
legged Crooked deals.
Many Forged Deeds
In the forged deeds already brought
to the attention of the district attor-
neys office, the grantees under the in
struments appear to be S. Moore in
two instances, A. Langworthy in four,
P. Hackett in three, Marie Lavore in
one, James Hasson in two, r. C. Mil
liken in one and Emma Nelson in one.
In all of these instances the instru-
ments are returned to the postoffice
box rented by Groves.
An important discovery was made
last night by Deputy District Attorney
Fleming, when the man was located
who has manufactured the notarial
seals used by Groves in making the ac-
acknowledgements to the forged deeds.
After an investigation in San Fran
cisco it was found that A. ]. Henry
and George Patterson, whose names as
notaries appear in the acknowledge
ments to the deeds, are reputable bus
mess men Of that city.
After an investigation by them, they
report that they have no record of the
Acknowledgements purporting to be
their own, and they declare them to be
forgeries.
The case is one of the most difficult
to handle that has ever been brought
to the attention of the district attorney,
IL, ine &c ~
Groves has cautiously guarded his
movements and has in each case de-
stroyed the original deed, as well as
the seals
Attempt to Swindle
It was asserted last night that
Groves attempted to swindle Miss We
toria Dickson, who is employed in the
law department of the Edison Electric
company.
AS attorney for Emily Segmiller,
Miss Dickson filed suit against A.
Langworthy to quiet title to a certain
piece of property.
The attorney made repeated efforts
to locate Langworthy. who has since
turned out to be merely a fictitious
person.
Groves is alleged to have told Miss
Dickson that If she would pay him a
certain sum of money. at the time rep
resenting himself to be Langworthy's
attorney, he would give her a good
title to the property.
There is at present in the hands OF
the district attorney letter which dis
