Fifteen Names Added to the
List of Deaths
AS the Result of Poison at Ber-
lin Shelter Home.

Berlin Dec. 28.-More than so deaths
from ptomaine poisoning have occurred
since December 26 at the Municipal
Shelter for the Homeless in F'roebel
street. Fifteen more Of the destitute
men died last night and this forenoon
while so or 20 are i'll. New cases are
being rushed to the hospitals so fast
statistics cannot be kept.
The affair has assumed such proper
tiOnS that doubts are being expressed
as to whether the deaths were due as
at first believed to the eating of decay
ed smoked herring, which the home
less people had brought with them to
the shelter to exc out the scanty diet
provided there. A considerable number
of cases have been reported from an
other municipal shelter and from the
Jail The authorities, however, still
adhere to the original theory.
The symptoms of some of the patients
correspond to those of cholera but sew
eral postmortem examination have
djsproved absolutely the existence of
cholera The hopes that the later cases
would prove less serious than those re-
ported at first have vanished. many
of the victims today as well as yes
terday succumbing in SO or IS minutes
after being attacked.
The am balances starting from the shell
ter to go to hospitals had in many cases
to change the eir destination and go to the
mOrgue instead, as the patients had
died on the way Others expired in the
shelter before they could be given at
tention.
The symptoms of the poisoning are
fainting, which is followed by violent
vomiting and death. The superintend-
ent of the asylum expresses the opin-
ion, based on one of the postmortem
examinations that the deaths have not
been due to fish but to deliberate pois-
oning.
In septic Of rumors among the des-
titute classes which patronize these in
stitutlons that there has been a de-
liberate plot against the inmates. the
various shelters scattered about the
city were last night even more crowd
sd than before. over 4,5G0 ner took
refuge in the main institution and
crowd of physicians was present the
whole night receiving reports of ad-
cases. Many of those who have
been taken sick have, it is said, been
victims of suggestion. They display the
critical symptoms but on examination
prove not to have been poisoned. The
police are trying to establish response
bility, but thus far have been un-
successful.

PREACHER ANGRY MORE Than so DIE 7
Gas From Overheated Furnace
Makes Pair Unconscious.
Mrs. CaspersOn and Daughter
Saved by Prompt Work.

Two members of a family named
Casperson, who live at 900 Lane street,
narrowly escaped death at an early
hour this morning as the result of in
haling the fumes of mOnOxide gas
from an oVerheated furnace. Prompt
work on the part of DR.. c. E. Hulett
saved Mrs. Casperson and her daugh-
ter, who were both unconscious when
he arrived.
Mr.. Casperson and his son were
awakened about 3:45 O'Clock by
sounds from the room where Mrs. Cas-
person and the daughter were sleep
ins. Upon investigation, they found
the women unconscious, and believing
that natural gas was responsible, has
tily carried them into another room
and opened all the windows. The boy
ran to the home of DR.. Hulett, who
lives at 9O1 Lincoln. When DR.. HuIett
arrived, he found the girl recovering,
but Mrs. Casperson was unconscious
for some time, and required artificial
respiration. After attending the pa
tients DR.. Hulett investigated the fur
mace, and found that the gas p
which was low when the family re-
tired, had risen during the night, and
that gas thrown off by the over heated
metal of the furnace had filled the
closed sleeping room through the re-
listers.
This forenoon the family reported to
Dr. Hulett that Mrs Casperson and
her daughter had fully recovered from
the effects of the fumes.
