GEBHARDTS WIVES.
Police Hare Proof of Three
and Still Search.

Islip, Long Island. Oct 2S-While Fred
erick Gebhardt the ex-convict, bigamist
and self-confessed murderer of Anna
Luther. repeatedly denied to-day that he
had married more than two women. Coro-
ner Savage and the police of Brooklyn say
that they have evidence OF at least one
more wife, and are working on clews
which may bring to light several other
marriages.
1t is said that Gebhardt, or Mueller. had
his first matrimonial experience in this
country thirteen years ago. when he was
married to Anna Link. German immigrant
girl, who lived with him at hotel at No.
6 Greenwich street This woman has dis
appeared since Gebhardt was sent TO Sing
Sing prison on a charge OF having obtained
money from woman he was counting and
on charge of perjury In swearing that he
was not married when he swindled his
fiancee
In connection with this marriage, Coro-
ner Savage is also investigating the charge
made by a woman who was in conference
with Gebhardt before he was brought
into court on Tuesday. This woman will
return to Islip tomorrow, when 1t is ex-
pected that she will give additional evil
dence against the bigamist
Gebhardt was told OF the charges to-
day. and, after he asked a number of
questions about the alleged wives, he said
that there was no truth in the accusations.
Then he proved an alibi in the triple muir
der charges made by the Worcester (Mass)
police who had sent a telegraph message
that a man named Mueller was wanted
for crime committed in 1898. Gebhardt
explained that he was in Sing Sing prison
when the murder was committed. This
statement was supported by dispatch
from the prison warden.
In connection with the arrest of Gebhardt,
detectives to-day disclosed the organiza-
tion Of a band OF swindlers who, 1t is said,
have obtained thousands OF dollars from
widows and servants under the pretext
of seeking marriage. With headquarters
in the vicinity of East Goth street and
Second avenue. the gang. which was lin
tied to a membership OF five men. is known
to have operated all over Harlem and The
Bronx. Gebhardt. it is thought. may be
able to give further information about the
gang
