at the Central Hotel as Mrs. Il. johnson.
A few days later child was born to her,
which lived but one day. A coffin was
bought at una srtaker Fritz's by persons
interested, who placed the body therein
and had the undertaken leave it at doc.
tors office. Sandy Whitmore. OF New
London, part Of whose house Miss Irwin
had occupied, was notified OF the woman's
critical condition last Sunday, but when he
came here he was denied an entrance to her
room.
DR.. Hearne, Secretary OF the State Board
OF Health, believing felony had been
committed, set about discovering the
guilty persons. Whitmore was sent for.
Marshal Reimsnn and two policemen went
to the hotel with Whitmore, when they
found the unfortunate woman quite Ill.
She was placed under arrest. When she
saw WnitmoTe, she threw off all DISCUSSES
and put out her hand to her friend In a
feeble way. So far the offence, as devsl.
oped. is In secretly disposing Of the child.
A doctor, hack driver, the hotel people and
the undertaken are involved in the case,
but the name OF the heavy villain in the
drama has not yet TRANSFERRED. Several ar.
rests are expected to-day or tomorrow.
Miss Irwin was highly esteemed at New
London, and In partnership with friend
was prospering In the millinery business.
