MURDERED GIRL
TO GET HER MONEY
-si
Nine-Year-Old Stepdaughter With
$3$00 Inheritance Killed for
Her Money.
NEW CASTLE, Ind., June 1.—The
police today arrested Mrs. Winters
and William Cooker, her roomer, and
charged them with the murder of
nine-year-old Catherine Winters, who
had disappeared a year ago and whose
clothing was found in the wall of the
cellar of the house in which the two
lived and from which the girl dis
appeared. The child had inherited
$1,000 from her mother, the first
wife of Dr. Winters.
The police claim that they have
been working on the case for many
months and that they have a chain
of evidence that will result in the
conviction of the man and woman
for the murder of the girl.
The money has been traced and has
all been spent by Mrs. Winters and
Cooker. The police expect a confes
sion of the crime at any moment, as
the two prisoners are undergoing the
third degree.
