The victim, 69-year-old Peter Snyder, 1305 Thirty-fifth street, was struck in front of 1234 Thirty-fourth street about 8:30 last night by a dark roadster. A well dressed young woman jumped out of the machine, according to witnesses, and started to lift the man from the street. She was joined by a tall man, who assisted in lifting Snyder to the curb. Apparently frightened by the ob- vious severity of Snyder’s injuries, the the machine, believed to have been a woman, slipped it into gear and sped away. The man who had alighted from Dies at Hospital. Snyder was carried by four men in town Hospital, where he died of a frac- tured skull within 15 minutes. A detailed account of the_incident was furnished police by F. R. Cady, a steamfitter, of Apartment 2, 1234 Thirty-fourth street, who witnessed the accident from the window of his apart- ment. Cady was attracted by the noise of screeching brakes and rushing to_the window saw the machine. strike Sny- der. The pedestrian was knocked down and shoved along several feet by the front wheels. The woman who fumped from the car was of slight build and wore a black coat with white fur, he sald. Upon seeing her run away, Cady shouted to the crowd that was gather- ing 1n the street to get the number of the car. A man believed to be the girl's companion turned around and announced he had it, but when Cady got to the street the mun could not be located, and the car had been driven away. Police were informed it bore Virginia license tags. I;e'uun of the promptness with which the woman alighted from the roadster, Cady advances the theory that the driver was also a woman, pointing out that had there been {wo men and one woman in the car the convention seat- ing arrangement would have placed the wflml;a in the fentzr. o e b Snyder was for years wn University, but had been ol B He was blind in one eye and possibly did not see the car that struck him.

Police had inclined to the theory the girl been kidnaj and then taken to the wooded pi near the farm of Mr. and Mrs. John Lipiatt, where her body was found by two sons of the Lipiatts. ‘The coroner added, however, that in his opinion the girl could not have wandered afoot the 16 miles because of a deformity. He said'she must have been noticed and probably taken to that vicinity by s motorist. The ts said a small car had parked near their home last Priday night and that its description tallied with the one of the possible abduc- tor's machine.
