some other matter secured by Dr. Wallace
McGeorge. George M. Beringer a we'll
known expert chemist, who has appeared
in several murder trials in Camden, had a
long conference with the assistant prose-
cutor yesterday, and it was rumored that
they fully discussed the poisoning case.
but neither would admit it afterward, and
DR.. McGeorge said he still held the matter
he had secured from the Morgan house.
The city and county detectives had ap-
parently dropped the mystery declaring
that there was nothing in it," and ex-
pressing the belief that the sufferers had
been made i'll by diseased pork On the
ether hand, DR.. McGeorge has steadfastIy
maintained that all six persons were vic
tins of arsenical poisoning. 1t is more
than likely that the case will be infused
with more life in a few days.
