Mrs Montgomery Armstrong Dies from ASphyXiation.

New Haven, Oct S.-The partial as- phyxiation of MT and Mrs Montgom- cry Armstrong of 325 Humphrey street had a fatal termination in the case of Mrs Armstrong, who died about o'clock last evening. While the end was hastened by the effects of the gas inhaled Monday night, her death was directly due to heart diff ficulty, Mrs Armstrong having been tror bled for soIne time with a weak heart.
 When the couple were first discover- ed Tuesday morning. and after the physician was summoned, Mrs Arm strong was ill the better condition of the two Slic also rallied from the effects of the gas more quickly, and Tuesday evening it was thought she would recover. Yesterday, however, the effect of the gas on her weakened heart was noticed, and she slowly be- gan to sink, the end coming about 6 o'clock.
 Last evening MT Armstrong had nearly recovered from the effects of the gas, although he was still in a critical condition owing to his age.
