Polio emen.
Hartford. July 29.-Three Guinan child
rem who strayed away from their home on
Broad street, Thursday afternoon,are found,
and all three are dead. The whole affair is
SO sad, and for a while SO mysterious that
whole city has become interested in the
search for the little ones.
Chief of PoliceBell gave:orders.this morning
for all cars about the depots and freight
yards to be thoroughly searched. A few
minutes after 10 O'Clock, Policemen Grady
and Maute, who had been searching cars in
the yard of the New York, New Haven and
Hartford, about two houls, came to caboose,
from which sickening odor came. They
burst in the locked door of the car and the
stencil which had been strong before became
almost overwhelming Keeping on at the work
of investigation the officers traced the smell
to a closet, which the trainmen use as a
clothes press and breaking open the door
found the three little bodies naked and
preyed upon by vermin. Freddie, four
year-old LAY at the. bottom; onshim was Ray
mond, nine years, and on top of both was
Leroy, seven years. Under the three bodies
were few garments the boys wore W hen
they left home. 1t was sickening sight,
and a sad sequel to the story of their dis
appearance.
!. There are no suspicious of murder or foul
play. At the autopsy this afternoon, moth
ing was found to indicate violence. The
condition OF the lungs indicated death by
suffocation.
The theory is the little fellows ran into
the car to hide from passing policeman
Thursday afternoon and the door of the
closet swung to and caught them il with
