Prominently Related. Ahern's relatives in New York sald he was related to a court offieial prom- inent in politics, but refused to reveal his_identity. Polige also were investi- gating reports that Ahern gained prom- inence in New York seven years ago when he inherited $200,000, which he spent in high living and frequent trips to Cleveland night clubs. His three companions were under arrest while their Bertillon measure- ments were bein &(‘h!cked by New York police. All of them denied seeing the shooting or knowing its cause.
