Claims Another Girl as Wife.

went to Baltimore. where he entered a
medical school. He later returned to his
home at Ensenada, Porto Rico, taking
with him, it is charged, a young woman
whom he introduced as his wife. His IA
Their, it is stated, disbelieved the state
ments made by young Rivera and the
young woman, and the latter was sent
back to this country.
In the meantime two children were
born to Rivera and the Washington
girl, who supposed she was his wife.
Not until after the birth of the second
child and an effort to have Rivera in
dicted for nOn-support did Miss Easter
day become convinced that the cere-
mony in which she and the Porto Rican
figured had been merely d mock mar
riage.
Detectives Cornwell and Baur made
repeated efforts to locate Rivera in
Baltimore, but failed. and then learned
of his return to Porto Rico. He was
located recently at Atlanta, and he was
arrested in that city yesterday.

PENSION FUND DEFICIT
CurtaiIed Payments to Bene-
fiCiarieS Work Great
Hardship.

The District of Columbia government
has commenced the new year facing "a
big deficit in the fund for the payment
of police and firemen's pensions For
the month of January the payment
Will be but 53 per cent of the amount
due the pensioners, according to an
rouucement TODAY Pensioners of the
pOIice department will receive but
S4o23S3 of the total amount of Ssh
due them.
The pension rolls of the fire depart
ment call for total disbursement OF
s374450. The local government has
funds sufficient only for the payment
of s2OOO4S of this amount.
In addition to the Indebtedness in
CURED on the January rolls. the Dis
trict government now owes its pen
sioners the total sum of S35,O01.3l as
the result of previous deficiencies.
During the last fiscal year there was
deficiency in the payment of police and
1iremen's pensions amounting to $40, 4S6O7.
May Exceed Last Years.
1t is the opinion of District Auditor
Tweedale that unless Congress enacts
remedial legislation the deficit this year
Will exceed that of last.
According to this official there are a
number of pensioners, including women
and children, who entirely dependent
upon the payments made them by the
District and hardship is imposed upon
them when the local government each
month fails to discharge its contractural
obligations. 1t is said that the additional
funds that would be earned by the relief
bill which is now before Congress would
be sufficient to enable the District to meet
the police and firemen's pension payments
for many years to come.
