BARON GEO. VoN P0LENS

The ex-soidier of the German army who killed himself in BisOCe severas days ego by hauein. himself Nith piece of twn.e 10 the trake wheel of a box cas ma have teeh George F. von Polens. who is re- ported missing from Los Angeles
 This information was contained in a letter received yesterday by City Marshal Bassett Watkins from Dr. D. Cave, a Los Angeles, Cai., dentist. father-in-law Of the missing baron. According to the letter, the baron, who married the daughter Of Dr. and Mrs. Cave. IS missing and his where abOuts are unknown. Mrs Polens. the baroness. the letter said 'is stay ing with her parents temporarily"
 pr Cave wrote the officer for a description of the man and any in formation that might lead 10 the dead mans identity Baron Polens was a first lieutenant in the German army before coming to this country.
 The fact that baron's address was Got known to the Los Angeles rela- lives. leads to the suspicion that there was trouble between the baron and the baroness. This may or may not lend materiality to the known fact that ;he German who killed him. self here was suffering from melan- chOiia because of his estrangement from some woman. who in the ex- soldiers dreams. 'hovered near him Ic wrote:
 All day ! sing because of you My love IS chriSteued with the dew. Each day is born again anew. At night when dreams ensnare me Your dear form hoveIs nelr me"
 That the dead mans troubles were caused by7 an unhappy love affair may be gathered irum the following. dn the cradle ! was free of love Save from that in the skies above: But now that we in years have
 grown
 And the sinful seed Of passion sowh Life no more is baby bliss.
 O could | change that biissfEl kiss For baby's kissic,s bliss"
 officers here do not believe that the man who committed suicide was the Los Angeles man. thoueh there is nothing on which to base this belief. as the mans identity is shFoudcd in mystery Ii IS known that Darowski. one of the names nader which he went, was a barber but if he were the missing baron ir would not be the First time by a great many instances where a European Of noble birth be- came an artisan in this country. As argument against the theory that DarUWski was not Baron To. leus. it is pointed ont that there was no reference tp Los Angeles in the ala r- n I'm would have no sigHiiic3Hce however, unless it were known when Polens had been last seen by his Los Ar- eeles relatives
 The circumstances developed by inc disappearance of Baron POleus and he death of John Ddrowski that are coiucident arc:
 Both were Germans
 Both were eX soldiers.
 Both held leuteuancics in tbc army.
 Baron Polens disappeared and Dt rowslIi had two names, apparently making every effort to conceal his real identity
 Strange as il mish, De jC ii tmus out that DarOwski was ihc missiug EaIon Polens, stranger things have happened and the Los Angeles rCla- lives will probably make every ef- fort to lcam ii it Is true.
 Tine suii case that belonged tO Da. rowski and which the proDrietrcss Of ihe St Elmo roomiug house al firu refused 10 turn over fbe coroner, wa. secured yesterday by Coroner High, bus nothing in it tended Co sOive the 'u;,a's real identity
 The lag on tue suit case bore the uamc Of IT. DcrbE, the name chat occurs on the Ay leaf of ho dead mans diary The suit ease was id- relied ~lIambuIs," but other parts cf inc label had been scratched o'l. inside of business directory of the city 0f Cleveland. Ohio was cor iifcatc of graduation from a harDer college in that ciy, dated in May. lJil
 This date is important in that it proves that DaroWski became bar Der only after he came to the uniied
