NEW YORK MURDER
TWO SUSPECTS
A STATEMENT MADE
(Received March 1, 9 a.m.)
NEW YORK, February 28,
Joseph Fay, an official of the Building Trades Union, who was. accused of plotting with Kosoff the murder of Norman Redwood, signed a statement to the Prosecutor, Mr. John Breslin, who said he would ask for the indictment of both Fay and Rosoff.
Rosoff declared that the statement was false and ridiculous. Fay declined to comment on this.
Samuel Rosoff, a noted industrial figure and a millionaire, and Max Friedman, one of his associates, were arrested about a fortnight ago in connection with the shooting of Norman Redwood, an official of the Tunnel Subway Workers' Uriion, which was involved in a strike over a local sewer. Redwood was shot dead from a speeding motor-car when he stopped his own car in front of his home. ■ He was a native of England. The police explained that Redwood's union had blocked the work of a large city sewer contract which Rosoff's firm was building.
