WOMAN POISONED
HOSPITAL BABIES
Mystery Of Deaths in Brooklyn Insti-
tuition Solved by Confession.
PUT UxALIC ACID IN MILK JARS
After Severe Sweating Kitchen EN-
pIoys, Believed to be insane, Ad-
mits Her Act-Wanted to
"Get Even'' With Nurses.

New York, Feb. 24.-Winifred An
kers, the attendant at the Brooklyn
nursery and infants hospital, con
fessed after two hours Interrogation
by the police that 1t was she who had
put oxalic acid in the milk prepared
for the babies in the hospital, causing
eight deaths and four slcknesses in
three days.
Her purpose, the girl said, was not
to kill the children, but to make 1t
appear that nurses In the hospital
against whom she had a grudge were
not taking proper care Of them.
Miss Ankers has baby of her own
in the hospital. He is not sick. The
police brought her to the point Of
confessing by threatening to take her
baby away, whereupon there was a
hysteric outburst, in which the young
woman sobbed out her story of how
she had dropped oxalic acid into the
milk bottles.
Woman 10 Derpented.
The police believe the woman is de-
mented. Her story they regard az
true, however, and it was officially
stated that she would be Immediately
arrested on charges Of homicide. 1t
was considered advisable to leave her
at the hospital over night under
guard.
Winifred Ankers is "a years old.
She went to the hospital last July
with her infant and after placing the
baby in the care of the hospital found
work in the kitchen. She had been
regarded as a phIegmatlc sort Of
character, but occasionally displayed
temper, complaining of the small pay
and poor food she said she received.
Traced Purchase Of Acid.
Suspicion was not directed toward
her until four of the babies had died
in two days. With the death of
fifth baby an autopsy was performed
and microscopic examination indicated
the presence of oxalic acid or some
similar irritant. 1t was recalled that
recently the Ankers woman had per
sisted in wanting some oxalic acid
for cleaning copper vessels, and that
she had finally been given permission
to buy an ounce of 1t. The authorities
were guarded, however, in taking
definite action against the woman un-
a thorough chemical analysis could
be made.
As the police questioned the woman
she sobbed constantly.

Lehigh, Ok, Feb. 23.-Between Is
and 40 miners employed in the coal
mine OF the Wichita Coal and Mining
company, one mile west Of Lehigh,
lost their lives. Fire broke out about
noon In mine No. 5, entomblng the
men in the pits. The filling up OF
the shafts with smoke and failure Of
the machinery to work retarded the
rescue.
Seven miners are known to have
been killed and the fate Of score or
more imprisoned In the mine 10 doubt

been brought to the surface, half a
dozen men had been rescued alive
while the apparently llfeless bodies
OF several others had been found.
100 Men at Work.
The mine, which IL over q mile
from Lehigh, was discovered aAre
shortly before noon. At that time
100 men were at work in 1t. The
greater number were near the mouth
and escaped before the fire gained
Roadway, but others In the lower
workings were entombed.

The fire was sufficiently subdued
by early morning to permit rescue
parties to enter. A negro was the first
man found alive In the same recess
The bodies Of seven dead were found.
One Of the number was an American;
he others were foreigners.
For several hours after the fire
started there was hope that the men
n the mine were still safe, but later.
