SEQUEL TO MURDER
CLAIM FOR INSURANCE PRICE ON VICTIM’S HEAD. NEW YORK. March 31. Disclosures in the Probate Court show that Ruth Snyder, who with her lover, Judd Gray, was recently electrocuted for the murder of her Inisband for his insurance money, was also a forger. Her orphaned daughter, Loirnine, is suing the Prudential Insurance Company for £20,000, as the amount for which her murdered lather was insured with the company. An investigation showed that either Ruth Snyder or Judd Gray literally placed that price on Albert Snyder’s head. The application for the policy was signed in Albert Snyder’s name, hut was not in his handwriting. In reality he never saw tljc policies which his murderers placed upon his life. It is doubtful if Lorraine will secure anything. *
