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

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

stood a small gas heater attached to
a water boiler. The range was no
lighted, but the heater was in opera

Several physicians were immediate

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.
