GIRL SPY BUSY.

WANTED BY POLICE.

CHIEF IN ENGLISH PRISON.

ECHO OF OUD BAILEY TB,IAL_ (Special.—By Air Mail.) LONDON, August 15. Marianne Emig, lovely air spy still wanted by the British police, is busy again. Six months after the four-year sentence passed in England on her companion, Dr. Goertz, and her own escape, this slender, brown-eyed beauty is working in the port of Hamburg, cosmopolitan centre for sailors and travellers from all over the world.

Officially, she has been appointed secretary to a German shipping firm. This post will enable her to come into contact with foreigners in responsible positions. Although she is only 20 years old, Marianne Emig has already shown herself an adept at winning the confidence of unwary men. For two years she worked with Dr. Herman Goertz, and stayed in England as his "secretary and companion." On a motor cycle they visited R.A.If. centres, where Marianne used her charm to secure acquaintance with airmen. Later she returned to Germany and corresponded with them regularly. At Dr. Goertz's trial, letters from Marianne to a British aircraftsman, asking for confidential information, formed an important part of the prosecution's evidence. A warrant for the arrest of Marianne Emig still waits on the files of Scotland Yard.
