sion on Monday that he had two wives

in Williamsburg, or, so far as could be
learned, either at the home OF his first
wife, at .o1 Jefferson avenue, or at that
of his second. known a. Mrs. Flora A.

There were many conjectures as TO
what had become OF him, some OF his
friends believing that, driven TO despair
through the exposure OF his bigamous
life. he had taken his own life, while 9TH

either fed the country. so as to escape
prosecution, or was in hiding.
District Attorney Clarke, who was long
a personal friend Of the missing banker,
and than whom there was none more sur

complications, took cognizance yesterday
OF the case by asking Deputy Police Com

been In complete ignorance OF the fact
that their uncle and mother were husband

had deceived Mrs. Colt. his second wife,
by concealing the fact that he had mar
