from strycffnine poisoning and the
condition of his wife. Edith, becom-

striving to learn how the drug was
administered to Mrs. Strobacker while
in a cell ut the police station.
II was ten hours after the woman's
arrest that she was seized with con-
vulsions early today, and the physi-
clans at the South Side hospital agree
that the poison could not have been
given to her before she was taken
into custody. Her condition became
so critical that II was necessary TO
remove her to the hospital, where
her husband was taken Saturday az
ternoon. An analysis OF jelly spread
