Philadelphia, Oct. 6. The police
today expressed the belief that Millie
Dedmarch, 19 years old, engineered
the plot which ended last night jn
the holding up and the murder at
Hammonton, N. J:, of Henry Rider,
of Rowell, Mich., and the wounding
of A. J. Rider, president of the New.
i Jersey Cranberry Growers' Associa
tion, and two others. The girl and
three others were arrested last night,
they being traced by the license
number on the automobile in which
eleven persons were seen near the
home of the Riders just before the
hold-up.
The Dedmarch girl is said to have
been familiar with the movements of
Mr. Rider on pay-days and was aware
of the amount requirea for his pay- I
roll of 300 cranberry workers.
Mrf. Elsie Smathers, a widow, al
though wounded, drove Rider at a
racing clip for ten, miles, fleeing from
the bandits.
