On his return at o'clock in the after- 11 if on he found his wife and mother, Mrs. Helen Bremerman, aged dead on the floor of the kitchen and the lifeless body of his 18 months old boy laying in a crib in the dining room adjoining. A stifling odor permeated the air and the frantic husband, son and fa ther, bereft of his entire family at one fell blow, was almost overcome before he could throw open the win dow and let in the fresh air. A large gas range occupied one torner of the kitchen ' and nearby , stood a small gas heater attached to a water boiler. The range was no lighted, but the heater was in opera lion and the iron frame was red hot Several physicians were immediate ly called in, but they found that all the victims had been dead for hours. The child's body was warm, indicat ttig that it bad been the last to suc eumb to the effects of the fumes.

Thn made a close examination of the pre- j who patronized the refreshment mises, none of them being able to tables came away with smiling coun- advance any plausible theory as to , tenances and a general look of con- the origin of the fumes. There was a small (hole in jthe hea . ter about three inches in circumfer ence and from thns opening as clear ly as can be judged, the police be lieve the fumes came. Their theory is that gas was generated by the illumi nating gas coming in contact with some foreign substance at the bot tom of the heater, but the heater was found to be free from dust and dirt The same theory is scouted by the coroner, who believes that the vic tims died from the fumes of marsh gas, the house being located ina low lying section of the city. Several of the physicians advance a theory that some foreign matter became mixed with the illuminating gas and combined with the flow of water in the boiler, generated a nox ious gas. All were puzzled as to how gas could overcome the women so quickly. Both were apparently making for the door of the dining room when they were overcome. Both bodies were but a few feet from the stove. Sewer gas was considered out of the question, owing to the fact that the plumbing was of the most mod ern type and there was no leak in any cf the connections. FOOTBALL VICTIM.
