Wife Galls Him Dupe! Seeks Commission to Guard Barker Estate
An application in Supreme Court seeks appointment of a committee to manage the estate of Charles Ball Barker, alleged to be worth between $100,000 and $400,000. He is accused of dissipating fortune on dissolute women, with one string of lawsuits and orders for payments to a child and to women he associated with at hotels and elsewhere. The hearing before Justice McCat in Special Term I continues as the guardian for Eva Mo Barker asserts Barker is mentally incapable and dissipated, while a court contempt order in a separate matter remains under review.
