Widespread Search Is On
for Winnie Judd but
No Success.
LOS ANOKLES. Oct. 11. tin
Scores of clnea flooded police
neaaquarters today In tbe aearrli
for Mrs. Winnie Ruth Judd, 2S
year old wife of a physician,
who fled from a railroad station
here Monday shortly before two
trunks were opened, revealing
tb bodlea of two of her friends,
whom she la ay-eased of killing.
Excited eitlsens, bus drivers,
motorists, restaurant owners and
tb like telephoned police re
peatedly, saying they had seen
a woman resembling Mrs. Judd.
Each investigation. however,
went for naught, th suspects
either having disappeared or
proved other identities.
Meanwhile authorities pieced
together evidence ia th live
of Mrs. Judd and tb slain wo
men, Mrs. Agnes L Rol and Mlas
Hedvig Samneiaon, hoping to
gain Information tbat would fit
a motive. Of tb theories ad
vanced, three stood out. They
wer jealousy, or Insanity, or
illicit Intimacies.
Explaaatioaas Soaurlit
One of these. authorities
agreed, probably would explain
the tragedy in which the two
women were ahot and ktlled, th
body of on dismembered and the
remains of both placed in trunks
and a valla and forwarded here
try train from Phoenix. Arizona,
where th three had beet em
ployed in a medical ellnla.
Th crimes were discovered
by a railroad agent who aaw
blood filtering through cracks
in on of the trunka. When
Mrs. Jndd and her brother, B.
J. McKinnell, university student
here, arrived to claim tb bagg
age, he demanded that she open
tb trunka but sh fled, pretend
ing that sh did not have th
keyes.
The theory of Intimacies was
based, almost wholly, oa a diary
in the possession of County At
torney Lloyd J. Andrews of
Phoenix who flew her lo aid In
the search.
It told, police said, a atory
of a atrange affection between
the two victims and a sodden
changed attitude and action of
Mrs. Judd, who one had lived
with them.
