C, SATURDAY, JUNE 8, 1940, Ruppert Estate Valued At Only $7,000,000 By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, June 8—Col. Jacob Ruppert, the baseball and brewing magnate, left an estate of only about $7,000,000, instead of the $30,000,000 to $70,000,000 with which he was popularly credited, the executors’ jentative accounting disclosed yes terday. The principal assets were his al- most complete ownership of the New York Yankees, baseball organization, valued at $2,400,000, and Ruppert Brewery stock, valued at $2,500.000. hTe executors said overestimates of the fortune probably were due to a mistaken helief that he owned all of the brewery stock, and to the fact that bhe held only a minority interest in his real estate ventures and that real estate values had de- clined recently. Col. Ruppert's real estate was valued at $600,000. He had an addi- tional $1,450000 in miscellaneous securities; furniture, jewelry and paintings valued at $196,000, and a | $50,000 yacht.
