NELLIE SLATER INSANE.

X Nellie Slater, or Strigler, one of the states star witnesses against the Ital-
 ian, Laudano, who is under arrest for
 the murder of Policeman McKeon, was taken to jail yesterday in a state of mental collapse that was pitiable to
 witness. The woman is violent and is continually watched for fear that she will do herself bodily injury. The wo- man was arraigned in the city court yesterday morning on the charge of re- siding in house reputed to be one of ill-fame, and, as was anticipated, the case was continued until tomorrow morning, when the Italian, Laudano, is to be arraigned again. The woman's condition is due primarily to over-in- dulgence in liquor, superinduced by the shock of what she has been through the past few days. Dr. Kenna said he could not tell whether her condition would be permanent or not. The physician said she was suffering from a form of de- Mentia caused by over-indulEence and { atit would be impossible to tell
 sslftiief the affliction was permanent until thorough examination of the case had been made.
