POISONED WINE IS
Sent AS A GIFT
Reno Police Seek in Vain to
Clear Away the Mystery
Yelling Crime
Especial Dispatch 10 The Call

RENO, New. Sept. 6.-It is just
learned that Reno authorities have
been investigating mysterious case
of poisoning at the Sisters hospital.
Mrs J. G. Cash, who came here some
time ago from the east to take a posi-
tion at the local telephone Office as
chief operator is the victim. She has
been in the hospital for some time,
while her husband and baby are said to
be in Sacramento.
A few days ago Mrs. Cash received a
bottle of wine from an unknown
source She gave some of it to two of
the nurses and took some herself. All
three were made sick, but were saved.
An investigation showed the wine to
be poisoned The authorities began an
investigation at once, but have been
unable so far to find any clew that
would lead TO an arrest.
When Mrs. Cash came here to accept
the position as chief operator, the tele-
phone girls went on strike, declaring
they wanted one of their own number
selected for the position.
There is no j. G. Cash in the Sacra-
mento directory and no information
can be secured from the Sacramento
telephone people or police that would
show where Cash and the baby are
staying if they are in Sacramento.
