MRS. RUIZ SUICIDE
HUSHEO BY YANKEE
Reporter Admits That 'MyS-
ferrous American" Spent
$4,000 to Conceal 1t.

LONDON. June 12.-The authorities to-
day refused to reveal the dispositions
taken I'm connection with the suicide of
the alleged Mrs. Mary Agnes Ruiz, the
friend Of Alfred G. Vanderbilt, around
whose death an effort was made TO
throw a complete veil Of secrecy.
The coroner declared tIaJ the case
was closed; that there was absolutely
no evidence OF foul play, and that II
would serve no good interest to expose
the motives that prompted the suicide.
One of the two reporters who obtained
possession of she facts in the case ad-
mitted that he was paid a large sum
for suppress-nE the story. II is estl-
mated that the mysterious American
who attended to the work of sealing up
the affair. spent $4,000 In his task This
is a greater sum than any member of
the Ruiz family Is supposed 20 have
possessed, and is considered proof that
the person or persons most interested
were wealthy.
