Canadian Police Hold
Prospector In Connection
With Death of 3 Hunters
MONTREAL, UP) — Provincial
police said today Wilbert Coffin,
37-year-old prospector, is being
held for questioning as a material
witness in connection with the
deaths of three Pennsylvania bear
hunters in the Gaspe wilderness.
Police here said Coffin, import
ant witness at an inquest into the
gruesome deaths of Eugene Lind
sey, 45, his son Richard, 17, and
Fred Claar, 20, is being held in
Quebec City as a result of evi
dence uncovered in Montreal last
week. Police declined to say what
■the evidence was.
Reports circulated during the
week-end that police had located
a revolver and some of the per
sonal belongings of the hunters
during a search of a Montreal
home.
The hunters’ remains, stripped
clean of flesh by marauding bears
were found scattered through the
bush in mid-July, more than a
month after they had entered the
bush on their hunting expedition.
They were believed to have been
slain about June 10.

Patricia Vanderbilt, Wife
Of Cornelius Jr., Applies
For Public Relief In N.Y.
NEW YORK, Iff)—Mrs. Cornelius
Vanderbilt, Jr., trying to obtain
some money from her wealthy
globe trotting husband, applied
Monday for public relief.
The blonde 33-year-old beauty
insisted she was destitute except
for two pawn tickets on jewelry
and a mink coat, and had no plape
for her or her 11-year-old daugh
ter to lay their heads.
Welfare authorities told her to
sell the tickets and come back
when she is as broke as the other
people in line.
Vanderbilt got a Reno divorce
from Patricia, his fifth wife last
June, but Mrs. Vanderbilt’s law
yer maintained it was nothing but
a “mail-order” divorce which New
York does not recognize.
The couple has been scrapping
in the courts for some time with
Mrs. Vanderbilt holding a non
support warrant against him based
on the contention she is about to
become a public charge. .
