P ULL c FAILED
TO GIVE EVIDENCE
Former Nurse Did Not Appear
to Tell Of Alleged Ink
Injection.

Though duly notified of the meeting,
Thomas j. Pulling, who charges that
while he was employed as Il nurse III
the city Home ink instead of COM
pound solution OF choral was hypo-
dermically administered to a patient,
which caused his death, did not appear
before the Committee on Relief OF the
Poor last night. Now he Will have to
come and state his case before the
committee, which VIII look into the
case fully at a meeting to be called
later for that purpose. Circumstances
surrounding Pullirg's charge have led
the committee TO believe that there is
no foundation for it.
II as as confident, said Chairman Hob
son, in stating Pulling's complaint
that every word he said was untrue
as ] am of the fact that ! am sitting
in this chair. He has demanded
hearing before this committee. and he
In Richmond. III Is due the manage
ment of the City Home as much as 10
him"
Other members of the committee
were OF the same opinion.
There are other phases of the man
agement that Will in all probability
come before the Investigators. one of
these is thorough inquiry into the
question as to whether or not, through
laNity Of the present rules. there are
inmates of the Institution living at the
expense OF The city who really are
amply able to take care OF themselves.
In the Pulling case. all the witnesses
for the defense were at the call OF
the committee last night. Most Impor
tant Of these is Pharmacist William II,
Shook, whose casual remark that the
discolored compound used for the in
lection looked like Ink" probably is
the basis OF the alleged crime Pulling
will disclose
It is known that Pulling has for
merly been adjudged insane, and that
he spent a term in an insane ar ium.
The general impression is that lie still
suffers from mental disorders. and that
his accusations are for the purpose
of avenglng the fancied injustice done
him by discharging him from the po-
sltion of nurse. With the determine
ton. however. of getting at the bott--
or 1t all, the committee will take the
proper steps towards finding out where
the body is buried, with the Idea of
having 1t cxhumsd FOR an examination
If necessary.

MICHELE GIVES Up
GYPSY PRINCESS
Former Richmond Woman Takes
Care of Infant in
Baltimore.

Princess Lincka. the week old
daughter of Jesse Key Habersham,
who ran away from Baltimore years
ago to become the queen of the
famous Gypsy King, Gorgas Michele,
and who has recently been AIKEN from
gypsy surroundings and placed with
relatives near Baltimore, is the great
granddaughter of well-known Rich
monder, j. G. Tillson, who for many
years lived on Twenty Seventh Street.
between Clay and Leigh Streets, and
who later moved to Baltimore, where
his daughter married Mr. Habersham
MI Tlllson is we'll remembered by
Mayor Richardson, Captain Frank w
Cunningham and many other residents
of the city who We're raised on Church
Hill. He was a respected business
man Of standing, whose fortunes We're
partly wrecked by the war, and who
shortly afterwards moved to Balti-
more.
The child is described as regular
gypsy princess, with fair skin and
big black eyes. In her veins ningle
the wild blood of many generations
of rowing life and the oldest English
stock of Virginia and Maryland. Mr..
Tillson's granddaughter, Jesse Key
also granddaughter or
Francis Scott Key, author of THE
Star spangled Banner" was for
years prominent society belle Of
Baltimore. and not a little sensation
was created when she ran away with
and married the gypsy king, Georges
Michele. During the past few days King
Gorgas brought back to Baltimore his
only child, in order that she may be
raised in the best environment and
schools.
The childs mother died a week ago
in Cincinnati, after years Of rowing
life, sleeping in gypsy wagons and
constantly from place to place
King Gorgas himself took the child
to Baltimore, and has given his written
to the grandfather to have
her cared for by Miss Alice Cornelia
Tillson, who formerly made her home
in Richmond. =.
