Oyster Bay, N. Y, August 13.-Lunacy

Miss Ash L. Esac, or Elizabeth Case. who
created a disturbance during the church
service attended by President Roosevelt
yesterday. Should Miss Case remain with
in the jurisdiction of Nassau county Of
ficers until Wednesday she will be taken

Miss Case was examined by DR.. Fowler

cove. who were formally constituted eX-
aminers in lunacy by George Hoffman,
county overseer of the poor. The result
of the examination was the drafting of a
report that Miss Case is mentally incom-
petent to be at large. According to the
legal procedure necessary, this report will
be presented to Judge Jackson, sitting at
Mineola, tomorrow. when an order will
be issued requiring the presence of Miss
Case before the court.
This order cannot be served until
Wednesday, and as there are no charges
of any character against Miss Case there
is nothing to prevent her taking leave of
Oyster Bay and Nassau county before she
is served with the papers.
