IS A VICTIM OF HYpNOTISM
YOUNG GIRL PASSES AWAY AF-
TER Is DAYS IN TRANCE.
Mother Also Found in Unconscious
Condition-Strange Theory
Is Advanced.

New York. March 25.--0ne of the
most remarkable cases in the expe-
rience of the doctors of the Presbyte-
rian hospital in this city ended Fri
day in the death of Miss Luella Hues-
It's of Mount Vernon, who, with her
mother. Mrs. James II. Huestis, had
been in a trance for Is days prior to
her death. More than two weeks ago
both of the women were found uncon-
scious in the home of Henry w. Heller,
lawyer OF this city, and were sup
posed to have been asphyxiated by
gas. Neither had since recovered con-
sciousness. and physicians and hyp-
notists were puzzled by their unac-
countable coma.
Miss Huestis was an attractive
young woman aged % years. Lack of
nourishment was the principal cause
of her death, as it had been impossible
to give her food except in liquid form
and through tube. Stimulants and
oxygen were administered without eff
feet.
A singular fact is that the young
woman's mother, who lay in an ad-
joining room, began to show signs of
the approach of death soon after the
death of her daughter. Like her
daughter, the mother also is greatly
and the physicians at the
hospital say that her low vitality is
due practically to starvation. One
specialist in hypnotism and psychol-
ogy, who investigated the case, has
made public his conclusion that the
two women had unconsciously hypa
Noticed each, other, and that gas
had nothing to do with
the case He explained that he had
himself been hypnoszed while hyp-
a patient, and had only been
by the arousing of the sub
ject. The case Of the two women
has attracted the attention of scien-
fists all over the country.

planning to return to his work. He
was taken suddenly i'll about two

The building will occupy the greater
part of the site of the old South
Spring Mills on South Market street,
and will extend to the lot line on the
east side Of the street. It will be
quite an imposing structure and win

Of the city.
Much Of the equipment for the fac.

placed as soon as the quarters are
ready. 1t is hoped to have the fac
tory in operation some time in the
