Poisoned by sewer Gas,

THE LITTLE ROOM IN WHICH SECRETARY
MANNING CONTRACTED HIS ILLNESS.
Workmen are engaged to-day In tearing the
plumbing out of Secretary Manning's private
office. The room Is q small one, letting out OF
the main office, and is in the southeast corner
Of the building, directly over the head Of the
main sewer. 1t was In here that Mr.. Manning
did all his work at the Office 1t was there that
he contracted the illness which took him from
the department. In little closet in the corner
are all the connections with the sewer. The
plumbers at work there to-day found pipe
four inches In diameter, besides several smaller
pipes, leading directly to the sewer without
any trap or contrivance TO prevent the deadly
sewer gas from coming into the room. These
pipes strike the sewer just at its head, where
the greatest amount of gas Is formed. In the
winter, when the doOrs and windows were
shut, the air was most oppressive, and some-
times In the coldest weather M. Manning was
forced 10 open the window. He was urged not
TO SIT in there, but 1t was the only place In
which he could find absolute privacy. 1t was
impossible to avoid seeing visitors II he. re-
manned In the main room occupied by Mr..
Brennan, his private secretary. His physicians
pronounce his disease biood poison from sewer
gas, and say that it was brought on, beyond
doubt, by his sitting In that little room.
