time he saw Porter Charlton was on

hand. many books and other goods be-

in Ispolatof's room. A comparison OF
the Russians deposition with known

The police theory of the motive for
the crime is that Charlton, wearyins
of the woman TO whose mature fasel-
nations he had succumbed, tried un-
successfully to free himself, and then
killed her.
Three photographs OF Mrs Charlton
were found at the villa, two of them
large ones. all taken dressed as an
artist Among the books there were
many newspaper cuttings that de-
scribe her success. There We're sever
