Spiker were surrounded by squadrons of newspaper reporters, correspond- ‘\ ents and photographers. Mrs. Spiker, ‘who is a charming little Southern woman, with sparkling blue eyes and fascinating dimples, met a barrage >of questions without embarrassment. would not, however, comment upon the absence of her husband, Pearley, who remained in Baltimore. “My brother-in-law’s action Is the omly right and proper thing for him tc do,” said Mrs. Spiker. “What ho is! doing in offering to marry Miss Knowles is being done at my sugges- tion.” Mr. Spiker. said that own maiden name was Cora BDppelheim, and that she had been a echool teach- er in Harrisburg, W. Va., where she bad among a other pupils Guy Sptker. “Tt was there that I tought him the Gowen Rule,” said Mrsf Spiker, “to do unto others as he would be done fy. I Dike to think that teaching Is ‘now bearing fruit in his noble action in this crisis in the life of this young her “On Doc, 12 last my little daughter Yetive wrote to- Santa Claus asking _ for @ baby brother, On Dec. 14 came _the announcement that Emily was coming, and on Dec. 15 came the pic- ture of Nttle Ray, so you see my girl's prayer was answered.” Alfred Ray Knowles, the war baby im this case, will be five months old Feb. 4. He was named after an uncle, brother of Miss Knowles, who was ders, Mr. Kirschsteln said that as soon as Miss Knowles and Guy Spiker are married the child will be adopted and his name changed to Alfred Ray. Spiker. Guy Spiker, who is twenty-seven years old, rather slight in build, but with steadfast blue eyes, a firm chin and a generally clean cut appearance, corroborated this statement. “Much has been sald and written,” he told the reporters, “about my offer to marry Miss Knowles. It has been said that I am doing this because I am a follower of Karl Marx and other radical thinkers, There {s not a word | of truth jn that. It is pure bunk. “There is nothing out of the ordi- nary to my mind, and the marriage is most exclusively my business and that of Miss Knowles. I have had ample} time to ctnsider my statement to the | authorities concerning the marriage! and time makes absolutely no differ- ence in my opinion. | From early this morning the evi dence of the intense interest w4th| which the public is following the de velopments of the romantic drama which the immigration authorities refer to as “the Knowles case” made themselves manifest. A crowd of cuti- ous gathered before the office of the attorney at No. 280 Broadway waiting to see the principal figure. Mr. Kirschstein said he had received « large number of letters, most of them praising the action of Mrs. Spiker and of Guy Spiker and their treatment of the pretty Pnglish girl. Dr. Werner Marchand of No. 226 Bast Fifteenth Street sent fifty cents and @ suggestion that $1,000 be raised by popular subscription for Miss} Knowles and her baby. Anothes,letter was received from a sailor #h board the British steamer City of Agra in port here, The writer praised Mrs. Spiker’s attitude toward Miss Knowles and complimented Guy Spiker for his offer, Attorney Kirsehstein this afternoon made public the contents of ten let- ters containing proposals of marriage which have been receivea by Miss Knowles since she reached “Hillis Island. Many of the writers claim to be well to do. One of the letters, deted Feb.b 1, was qigned William Lembeck, No. 209 Epts 62d Street, New York City, and says the writer has read of the “sad plight” of Miss Knowles in the papers and is willing to advance $2,000 for her ball bond should that sum be needed. He writes that, he is @ widower, thirty-five years’ old, with a gon nine years old, and extrembly “anxjous and desirous” to marry ~ Mis Knowles. The letter also de- yeribes the furnished, apartment in and closes by she would ace whioh the writer live repeating bis hope thi vept him. Another letter. was from Mrs. Spiker and is signed “Cora.” In it rs, Spiker says that she “hopes little Ray is well," and adds that she has been in Washington “trying to do all we could to help.” She concludes with "Drink lots of milk, dear Emily, and see that the beby gets lots of milk. When your money runs short let Me Know at once | In another letter to Miss Knowles, | f Mrs, Spiker wrote “Emily, dear, thjs la a terrible situ- ation but I <now that it will come out all right, We will find a way, But| should there should send yo Emily could you let be no way and if they a back to Engl us hav Ray? 1 know it terrible s+ fice, but that may be the only way I long to hold little Ray close to my heart.” ‘ >_> NEW PARK BANK BUILDING.
