DOUBLE MURDER IN VANCOUVER.
MILLIONAIRE KILLED. VANCOUVER, May 14. Queer circumstances are associated with the murder of Albert Ridley, an aged millionaire who dealt in real estate, and his secretary Lee Weinstein, in the basement of Ridley's office. Weinstein was Ridley's second secretary to be murdered. A former secretary was killed in exactly the same manner by the same calibre bullet. The police fear there is no method of proving which died .first. The murders were so carefully carried out that they will be difficult to solve. Ridley, who lived a monastic existence, left 200,000 dollars in his will to Weinstein if the latter survived him. Weinstein left two wives, who say they will sue the estate for a substantial division.
