A CLEVER SWINDLER
CAPTURED BY GERMAN POLICE. By Cable.—Press Aaauoiatioii.—Copyright Received September 16, 1.5 a.m. London, September 15. The Telegraph's Berlin correspondent tells an amazing story of the arrest of an aristocratic-looking swindler, posing as a marquis. In reality he was the son of the late Professor Klimm of Budapest Technical University. The prisoner is a sort of modern Barry Lyndon, and inherited £4OOO. He joined an international gang of sharpers and eloped with two fashionable infatuated girls. He married one in London. The German police are inquiring, and bigamy, and other charges are pending against him.
