liospltul An autopsy was ordered by
the city authorities, who said they had
received reports that numerous infants
consigned to the woman's care hud
died of malnutrition.
AKents of the Society for the Pre

var'ous nurses who had been employed
In the place informed them that as
r.any as 12 Infants hud died similarly

Complaint of William Angorer of tho
Bronx,- who charged her with having
substituted a 4-monthsold child for
his lO monthsold son, Stephen.
The Angerer child was placed In the
woman's charge last Kebiuary after
Angerer's wife had suffered a nervous
breakdown.
Child welfare officials and attnohes
of the. district attorney's office who
Inspected the hospital said they found
13 Infants and five older .children
there under the caro of one nurse and
a servant girl, who served as cook.
Although a card index system listed
the names and other data of 15 chil
dren, the officials said it was Impos
sible to Identify any of the Inmates as
no identification cards had been at
tached to them. For this reason, they
said, the child who died today could
not be identified.
They said they found that a number
of the Infant inmates were suffering
from various ailments and that others
displayed unmistakable Bigns of mal
nutrition. Assistant District Attorney White
said the charge against tho woman
probably would be changed to homicide.

Peace Hrazler 0. Small set a precedent
for local courts here today when he
refused to accept Frank T. Kerry nnd
John RonetBch of Portland as bonds
inen for John Andrews, Lester Dickson
and. Henry Johimon, who are In Jail
here on charges of possession of n
still and manufacture of ' liquor.
Small's reason for not accepting the
Portland men as bondsmen was that
as profeBRional bond brokers they put
up ' large sums In bonds nnd conse
quently their liabilities are too great.
On the charge of possessing; n still
Andrews, Dickson and Johnson have
been, bound over to the grand jury
with ball fixed at $3000 each, while
on the manufacturing icharge their
ball has been fixed at $1000 each.

charge from the justice to the circuit
