Mrs. Eta Kingrey, Of Gordon, Ala,
Is coming north to be satisfied that In
Carlton she will be able to identify
the Eduardo J. Martinez who married
her In 1898 in Alabama, took all her
savings and then deserted her. On
this Identification the police believe
they will be able. to base q charge Of
btgamy, for they claim to have outside
evidence to show that in one particular
case Carlton posed as De Martinez,
claiming to have been q Spaniard spy
and to have inside knowledge of the
blowing up of the Maine.
Mile Peterson, Of Jersey City, has
positively identified Carlton In Jail as
the man who made her his common
law wife and deserted her. She does
not say Carlton ever robbed her. but
she has sworn that he>>endeavored to
have her life insured .. e
The charges of swindling the insur-
ance companies, the police admit, are
wholly without anything substantial
on which to base suspicion at this Tina.
There have been inquiries for further
descriptions and identifcations from q
least five. insurance companies and
guarded statements that there was
some suspicion that there might have
been fraud in that way. ~5a.@i5

that they were married. Now, that's q

posed as q physician, chemist, expert

and has said he know how to cultivate
