POISON MYSTERY
is CLEARED UP

Vienna, May 21.-(Special. 1.-The clear
ing up of the sensational army poison
Ing mystery by the confession of the &C.
cused officer, Lieut.. Adolf, Hofrichter,
has caused a general feeling of relief.
The offense to which Lieutenant Hof-
richter has just confessed is among the
most remarkable in the annals of crimi-
noogy. In the late autumn of last year
a large number of officers attached to
the general staff of the army at Vienna
received packages containing small
boxes of pills, accompanied by circulars,
bearing a name which was later discov-
cred to be spurious, praising the virtues
of these specifics for the treatment of
various ailments. Most of the gentle
men thus favored paid no attention to
what was supposed to be merely the
methods adopted by some enterprising
firm of pushing its wares.
Unfortunately, however, one officer,
Captain Nader of the staff, thought that
he might as we'll experiment on himself
and accordingly he took some of the
pills. He was almost Immediately seized
with illness, and. despite all efforts to
save him, he expired. This fatal occur

which belongs to the same chemical
family as prussic acid.
An investigation was at once set on
foot and various circumstances eventu-
ally led to the arrest of Lieutenant Hof-
richter. who was placed in Jail at the
close of November Further INQUIRIES
showed that he had bought number of
pill boxes exactly similar to those in
which the fatal pills were enclosed. and
some were actually found at his resi-
dence. At the same time the authori-
ties were not able to trace the purchase
of the cyanide Of potassium, which, how
ever. might easily have been in the lieu
tenants possession for some time, as he
was an amateur photographer and would
have no difficulty in obtaining a supply
of cyanide, which is used in various pho

his arrest down to his sudden and dram
attic confession Lieutenant Hofrichter
had persisted In maintaining his inno-
cence, and Austria was divided into two
camps the one comprising those who be-
1ieved Hofrichter guilty and those who
