markable case of wholesale poisoning

city Is charged against Bridget Carey.
who was arrested by Detectives lsaacs
and Miller and Deputy Coroner Paul.
The woman. who is 81 years old is
charged with having poisoned her hus.

aged years. and Annie aged 6, who
died week ago. and Patrick and Ce.
celia Cook, tenants in the Carey
house at lS43 Hamilton street.
All of the alleged victims died with
IN II months. and the police allege
that Mrs. Carey benefited by their
deaths To the extent Of $1,000. through
the collection of insurance.
The womans arrest followed an In.
vestigation made into the deaths OF
her two children. witch occurred last
week. II was said at the time that
their deaths were caused by eating
poisoned candy or candy that con.

soning.
According to Captain of Detectives
Donaghy. II was learned that the chill.
dren were insured for sl25 each and
that Mrs. Carey collected this amount
after their deaths. The police officials
say they learned that the woman had
secured rat poison. and on further In.
vestigation II was found that Patrick

who lived with Mrs. Carey had died
within a few months under suspicious
circumstances.
Miss Cook had been the lessor OF
the house and Mrs Carey was a ten.
ant The police officials say that Miss

When Miss Cook died a physician
who had attended her was visited by
Mrs. Carey, the police say. and asked
to sign a death certificate for insur.
ance. attesting that she died OF heart
disease. As he had previously at.
tended her for heart trouble and knew
that she was liable to die at any mo.
ment. he signed the certificate. though
he had not been in attendance on the
woman just prior TO her death Miss
Cook died on August 10, and on Sep.
tember II her brother died suddenly,
in much the same manner as his sis.
ter. The police officials say that Mrs

from physicians who were called in al
various times during the Illness of the
alleged victims. they were urged to
make a rigid investigation. The body
OF the woman's husband was inferred
at Centrala and will be exhumed.
