Posed as Princess,
Now Is Facing Jail

Berlin, Nov. q R}-A kitchen
maid who got unlimited credit from
tradespeople and many loans from
neighborhood gentry who believed
that she was princess Margaret Of
Prussia" faced a criminal trial at
Erfurt today.
The accused woman is Martha
Barth. She is IL years old and she
induced a number of persons to be-
lieve that she was a daughter of
Queen Sophia of Greece, that she
had been married to King Ferdi-
nand of Bulgaria and that after
that union had been annulled she
had been married morganatically to
the former crown prince of Ger
many. 1t was from this last i'm
aginary union that she claimed the
right to call herself Princess Mar
garet of Prussia
The woman had seen service in
several noble families before she ar
rived at Erfurt and her evident
first hand knowledge of happenings
among the nobility gave credence to
her tales. Particularly were duped
two elderly ladies who own a small
millinery shop. They virtually ruined
themselves by lending her money.
The swindle was revealed when
the milliners. during visit to
Potsdam. found the princess"
talking to former fellow servants i'm

As a result Of . conference today

will assume the task of fighting

The hose. hydrant wrenches, nox-

ment, w lie the department of pub

ing up and playing the hose where
ever fires are found. BY keeping in
cipient fires from spreading. it is
believed complaints from household
ers in the neighborhood of dumping
grounds will be kept at minimum.
The conference was called at the
request OF Fire Chief w. J. Noble
and Chairman James J. Butler of
the fire board. who met the mayor.
City Engineer Philip A. Merriam and
health superintendent at the mayors
office this morning and outlined the
plan adopted. Their objection to the
present scheme is that 1t keeps en-
tire squads and trucks tied mp In
dumping grounds where no prop
erty is at risk, leaving whole dis
tricts with no fire fighting facilities
at their call. The situation will be-
come more serious when the Farm.
ington avenue and Blake road is
brought into more general use, since
it Is so far from the fire houses
that it is impossible to relay calls
to the company when it Is fighting
a dump fire.
Objection on the part of the Ma
tional Board of Fire Underwriters
and consequent increase in insurance
rates was also pointed to as an ar
gument for the change in the plan
now in force. The hose and equip
ment will be brought to the city
storeyard today and hereafter all
calls for dump fires will be sent
there.

Greenstein claimed 1t was reckless

proof OF danger to the property or

no evidence whatever that there

could not find the reckless driving

therefore imposed fine for speed
