INSURANCE MAN ARRESTED
ON CHARGE OF FRAUD
Woman Alleges P. Curtis KoEune
Retained Money Paid on Policy.

Retained Money Paid on Policy.
That she was defrauded of $1,000 insur-
ance by p. Curtis 10 Eune, OF Ko Eune
& Co., fire insurance adjustors, was the
charge brought today by Mrs. Sidonia
Blevin, Of Cape May Point. n. j., widow
OF an officer in the United States Navy.
10 Eune was arrested three months
ago on a warrant sworn out by Mrs.
Blevin, and arraigned before Magistrate
Rooney Bail was set at $25O0, but
10 Eune left the office and failed to
return with bailbond. His rearrest fol-
lowed the issuance of second warrant.
According to Mrs. Blevin, no Eune Of
fered to secure settlement from an in
surance company which had issued
policy for $4,000 on q house she owned In
Darby and which was damaged by fire
in December, 1911. no Eune said he could
get $4,000 on tho policy and asked for
10 per cent. commission.
Mrs. Blevn agreed to this, but says
she was unable to collect the insurance
from 10 Eune save in small payments
by check. When she had collected $1,000
in this way Ko Eune's checks began to
be returned and Mrs. Blevin then swore
out warrant
Ko Eune contends that Mrs. Bleyin
agreed TO accept the settlement In small
sums.
