FEAR SELF-HYPNOTISM is
KILLING ALLEGED POISONER
Found Suffering From Paralysis In
Chicago Jail. and Her Con-
dition Is Critical

Chicago.-Mrs. Louis Vermilya,
charged with having poisoned Po-
liceman Arthur Bissonette and sus-
pected of having poisoned nine others,
was found stricken with paralysis by
a matron, and DR.. Thomas Hogan,
physician, at the county Jail, where
she is imprisoned, says her condition
is critical.
DR.. Hogan is of the belief that she
is the victim of self-hypnotism.
''She is a powerful woman with a
powerful mind" said he. II am of the
opinion that she has brought her
trouble on by will power. Death may
come at any moment. She cannot
talk and only has the use of her right
hand"
Mrs. Vermilya was arrested on a
charge Of murder when an examina-
tion OF the viscera Of the policeman
revealed sufficient arsenic to cause
death, The deaths of nine other per-
sons within few years caused Cor
oner Hoffman to exhume the bodies
of two. Traces of arsenic were found
in each.
