HEALER NOT INDICTED.
White Plains Jury Refuses to A
Against Mrs. Fowler.

White Plains Jury Refuses to Act
Against Mrs. Fowler.
White Plains, N. Y, June 1.-The grand
jury has failed to indict Mrs. Clarence
Fowler and the Christian Scientists are
jubilant.
Mrs. Fowler is a so-called healer of
Mount Vernon. She attended Mrs. Char
lotte NJ. Barquet, of that place, who suffer-
ed from dropsy. and tried to cure her by
means of preyer and other spiritual min
istrations. No physician was called, and
the patient died on May t. Coroner Ban
ming conducted an Investigation, and his
jury held Mrs. Fowler. with Mrs. Barquet's s
children, Lesion and Ethel BarQuet, on a
charge of manslaughter in the second de-
gree, to await the action Of the grand
jury. Bail was fixed at 81, 900 in each case.
The case was brought to the attention
of the grand jury by District Attorney
Andrews. but it is reported that he was not
enthusiastic in the matter. The grand Jury
voted Is to IL not to indict. District At
tOrney Andrews said later his duty was not
solely to satisfy the clamor of the public
and that the jury had failed to indict be-
cause negligence had not been shown, Mrs
Fowler having received no compensation
for her services.
Mrs Fowler called attention to the fact
that the Constitution Of the United States
guarantees religious liberty.

VICTIM OF FAITH CURE.
Chicago hoy Dies of D1phtheria
without Medical Attendance.

Chicago, June lit was only a few days
ago that the health department was noti-
fed CT the death Of the child of well-to-
do grocer in West Chicago avenue from
black diphtheria after the parents had dis
missed the regular physicians in charge
and called in Christian Scientists. Yester-
day the health department asked the coro-
ner to investigate the death OF Nathan
True, II years old. of III West Adams
street, who had died from the diphtheria
with no physician in attendance. The
little one had been treated altogether by
Christian Scientists.
Seven other members Of the True family
are suffering from the same disease. and
none are being cared for by physicians,
only faith healers'' being in attendance.
The coroner is in quandary. as the
Christian Scientists do not pretend to be
doctors. although they charge fee for
their services.
Il can't compel people to call in the SER
vices of a physician said Coroner Berz
last night but in such a case as this the
health department could probably take
hold of the matter on the ground that the
public health is endangered, as 1t un-
doubtedly is. With one member Of the
family dead and seven others Ill, some
thing should certainly be done.
There is no telling how many persons
have been exposed to the disease. because
the faith healers take no sort OF precau-
tons whatever. They just sit down and
pray and let the patient die. The neigh
bors come in as they please, and 1 have
heard of at least one case where the corpse
of a child who had died Of diphtheria was
kissed by friends and relatives before the
lid of the casket was fastened down.
Adam Griesel. an undertaken, at 9,12S
Commercial avenue. was in charge Of this
case, and he is charged with a fragrant
violation of the rules of the health de-
partment in permitting several people to
kiss the corpse of 4-year-old William
Schneider. of 9.2eS Ontario avenue. who
died on May %. The case Of the True
family is desperate, and something must
be done at once.
States Attorney Deneen said the health
department and the police were the ones
who should look into the matter first, al
though he was prepared to act at any time
and present cases to the grand jury where
the facts justified it. Il have never had
my attention called to these Christian Sci
entists or faith healers,'" he said, but
1 propose to look the matter up and act
according to my best judgment"
