Bogota. Colombia.-Gen. Pedro Mel Os.
pima, Colombian minister to the United
States, was recalled by the Colombian
government Friday.
The action of the Colombian govern,

related the whole truth it would be
necessary to remove her baby to some
other hospital, and she th%ereupon made
the alleged confession.

When the officers Gained her, she said
"Well, I'll tell you all about it,

oxalic acid into the milk bottles in the
ice box.

would come" she said, "and l don't know
