Husband Has Wife Jailed for Posing To Him as Baroness: (Correspondence of the Associated Press.) COLOGNB, Germany, Aug. IT~A de- ception that began more than six months | before the start of the war, and that was | successtully practiced until this month, | has just been discovered. It might never | have been unearthed if it had not been | for the war. In the winter of 1013-14 a local engineer met and tell in love with a woman named Maria Schiedeck. n tiie hope of interest- ing the engineer the woman had posed as | u widowed baroness, the daughter of a| prominent German general. When the engineer at last proposed marriage his fiancee coull find no” way of rectifying the false impression. On the plea that the general would be terribly angry to find that his daughter | had married beneath her rank, the couple went to London and there were mlrrha.l The engineer on severdl ‘odtastons 'Wrote'| letters to the general, but his wife m‘ able to intercept each of the messages | and to write answers caloulated to keéep the two apart. Then came the war and, eventually, the | engineer's participation in it. He had never given up hoping that he would some day be able to bring about a meet- ing and a reconciliation with his titled and distingulshed father-in-law. When he recelved the Iron Cross for bravery recently he decided that the proper time had come and once more wrote the gen- eral to tell him of the distinctlon. This letter the general did get, and this time the engineer got a genulne answer, in which the officer angrily and very de- cldedly disavowed any daughter or any sonsin-law. The deeply disappointed en- gineer could fot find it in his heart to forgive his wife, but instead had her ar- rested on a forgery charge, which has just resulted in her being sentenced to prigon for eighteen months.
