High School Professor, Wanted
for Bigamy, Still missing.

Greensboro, KY. Jan. 3l.-Inter-
est in the whereabouts Of Prof.
Robert Altman. the missing High
School professor, charged with
bieamy, continues undated. Tele
grams from Chicago report that he
was at The States Hotel Friday and
Monday. Baltimore information
states he vas married there in 1908
TO Miss Betrice Groliman. who with
her infant daughter is now in Blue
fields, W. Va.
The date Of Altman's second mar
riage seems to be doubtful. as the
couple said they were married in
Michigan. and the girls mother said
they were married in New York in
1910. No event of years has created
such a sensation as this, as the young
people we're bright and charming,
well bred and welcomed everywhere.
Every effort is being made to To-
cate Altman. but it is uncertain
which State would prosecute him,
Maryland, where he was welded
first, West Virginia, where mis- first
wife is, or Kentucky, where the
trouble had its denouement.
