Diligent search has been carried on since the death of Mr. Winters for the hears to the estate, but up to the pres ent time It bas been fruitless. "We know nothing concerning the H. O. Winters, of Los Angeles, who la re ported to bave received Information of heirship from an attorney In Hartford." said Mr. Idleman last night. "We have been in communication with several people at different times In different parts of the East, who were laying claims to being the legal heirs of the estate, but up to the present time have not found any who were able to estab lish their claims satisfactorily."

Husband on Payroll of Insur ing Company While Wife ' . Presents Proofs. BOTH PLEAD GOOD FAITH Ho Had Thought Her Dead and She Uud Same Belief About Him, and He, With Second Wife, Iars Bigamy Prosecution. NEW TORK. Feb. 1 1. (Special.) All the time that the officials of the Met ropolitan Life Insurance Company were Investigating the "proofs" of the death of WllllAm P. Larkln, presented by Larkln's wife. Larkln himself was on the payroll of the company as a watch man in the printing department. The company finally paid the claim, and at the moment that the money was being paid over Larkln was within 100 yards of the spot where the transaction was taking place. In pursuance of the duties for which he was employed. Mrs. Larkln also collected a policy of $1000 from another company upon the same proofs. The Insurance officials are now convinced after an examination Into the case that there In no criminal ity. The woman, they believe, was mis led by the same proofs that deceived them. Larkln, who has since remarried. In the belief that his wife was dead, is also considered an Innocent victim of circumstances. Larkln and bis first wife lived to gether only a few months, when a series of misunderstandings arose and they were separated. He received a letter one day from his aunt, telling him thai Mrs. Larkln was dead, and soon afterward was married again. That was eight years ago. The second mar riage turned out more fortunately, and be has been happy since. Fleet Wife Makes Claim. Mrs. Larkln No. 1 meanwhile estab lished herself at the home of a sister and eked out a living doing- fancy work. She went a year ago to the office- of one of the insurance companies and, upon the showing she made, was ad vised by the company's counsel to make a claim. She did so and in due course It was paid. A similar result followed the same course in the case of the Met ropolitan Company. Then, quite by chance, an officer of the Metropolitan heard that a man named Larkln was working for the company. He started an investigation. It is said that there was no attempt at concealment by any of those who were Interviewed in the subject. All the facts came out. When Mrs. Larkln No. 1 was told that her husband was living, her astonish ment knew no bounds. She sought the advice of a lawyer, who arranged to have Larkln come to his office, so that Mrs. Larkin could see him and, if pos sible. Identify him. She was ushered Into the lawyer's private office and the door was left open. Presently she saw an oM. decrepit man limp In, supported by two others. She looked at him in tently as he passed the open door. Wtnu la Overcome. "Is that your husband?" she was asked. "I don't know," she replied. "He re sembles William, but still I am not sure." And then she was so overcome that for the time further Investigation was postponed. She was not told then that there was a Mrs. Larkln No. 2. Larkin himself, when he was con fronted by the facts, made no denial. He told a straightforward story that. coin cided with the facts already in the hands of the attorneys. "After I married the second time," he said, "believing that my first wife was dead, I suffered a breakdown of my health. I waa not able to earn much, but Mrs. Larkin gladly went to work and we have been able between us to make a fair living. I thought my first wife was dead. Naturally I did not know that she had collected the two in surance policies." Couple Are Happy. Mrs. Larkln No. 2 at first refused to believe the story. Then she talked with her husband, who convinced ber. She said: "All I know now is that, whatevef may be our unfortunate position in the eyes of the law, we both are Innocent of wrongful intent, and I am going to stick to William. He has been a good husband and we have loved each other." The lawyer for the first Mrs. Larkln said that his client, although poor, was the soul of honesty. "Of course, she Is not entitled to the money now," lie said, "and Somehow he will repay every cent of It." Larkln waa much bewildered. . He said he feared prosecution for (.tgamy. "Not so much on my own account," he sslU. "as on account of my present wife. She Is Innocent, too. Life has not been any too easy for us, and what will she do if I am taken away from herT" YOUNG MUSICIANS MARRY Dr. Brougher Officiates at Boyd Yost Nuptials In Los Angeles. LOS ANGELES. Feb. 11.
