TWO DEAD, ONE DYING,
IN GAS FILLED HOUSE
Bodies Of Aged Women Found IN
Bed in Which Savings Of
1886 Are Hidden.
ONE RESCUED BY POLICE
Mrs. Hannah Mulligan, Who Had
Lived in Mott Street Building
for 80 Years, Is Saved by
Breaking of Door.

Patrolman Stumpf. of the Mulberry
street station, was passing through the
dusky twistings of Mott street early yes
terday morning wher a woman thrust
her head out of a window at No. Isl.
"Say. officer" said she, better look
into this-theres gas been escaping from
the back of the house at No. 2I9. Seems
like there must be something the matter
in there"
Stumpf crossed the courtyard leading
to the rear of the tenement house lndl-
Gated by the drowsy woman. AS he
neared the door he was almost overcome
bv the fumes Of Pas. He ran back TO
the street and called Patrolman Moffett
and Sergeant Kavanaugh. The three
men returned to the house. The rickety
door feebly resisted Stumpfs weight for
n moment and then gave way.
The policemen made their way warily
within. somewhat awed by the silence OF
the place. and in the front room came
across an aged woman. lying out
stretched on the floor. She lay near the
door. as though she had been trying To
get a breath of lifegiving air when over
come by drowsiness.
Sergeant Kavanaugh bent over the
woman and detected slight signs Of life.
He sent Stumpf out to call an ambu-
lance from ST. VinCent's Hospital and
the woman was taken there. She is Mrs.
Hannah Muligan. who had lived on the
for la Gf
thirty years, scrubbing Office building
floors and renting two rooms 10 other
women in an effort to exc out her ex-
istence. She is sixty-five years old. Her
conditio is said TO be serious.
After finding Mrs. Mulligan tho patrol
men walked into the next room OF the
fat. In a corner against the wall they
saw bed, the covering lying in a dis
orderly heap in the middle. Stumpf
leaned over and pulled back the covers.
There lay two women. Both were aged,
white haired. and both were dead.
They were Mrs. Annie Kelly. sixty
five years old, and Mary Smith, nifty
two years old. Both had been living in
Mrs Mulngan's fiat for about year.
Moffett and Sergeant Kavanaugh be-
gan a search of the musty premises.
opening wide the windows first as pre-
caution against the gas. At the closed
door Of the tiny kitchen they stumbled
against the bodies of three furry objects.
which, upon closer inspection, proved to
be two kittens and an old, decrepid cat.
The unfortunate animals had their noses
close TO the crack beneath the door, as
they had died while seeking air.
Continuing their search, the police
came across bankbooks bearing Mrs.
Mulligan's name and showing deposits
OF $500.
Sewed into the mattress of the bed
where the dead women were found was
a roll of bills amounting to 1886. evil
GENTLY their savings.
An examination Of the cellar showed
that the gas pipe had burst at the june
tion Of the wall and the ceiling. 1t had
first been frozen and when the thaw
came the pipe gave way.

KAISER MAY BUY A COLONY
Angola in the Market-Deal
with England Foreshadowed.
IRv cnble 70 M 1rIbune.I ]

London, Jan. 22.-Doctor Solf. the new
German Colonial Secretary, is on his
way to London to discuss colonial ques-
tions with the British authorities This
is assumed in some quarters to fore
shadow an Anglo-German deal.
THE Standard" states that England
can have no objection to Germany ac-
auiring on business terms the rich West
African possessions Of Portugal, while
German empire builders are convinced
that magnificent opportunity of push
ing forward their schemes presents
itself. now that the question of frontier
between Angola and German Southwest
Africa is under discussion.
II is being openly suggested that the
negotiations should be turned into pro-
posals for purchase and, owing to the
financial difficulties OF the Portuguese
government, 1t is believed that the Lis
bon Cabinet will be only too glad to
find a purchaser for the colonies in ques-
ton.

ously been reported that the capt IN had
disembarked the Turks on his own initIa-
tive at Cagliari, I'm Sardinia, and was then
permitted to leave the mort.

no such orders emanated from Paris, but
that. on the contrary the consuls had
been instructed through the embassy to
oppose all surrender. 1t is further stated
that the question of the Turkish nurses on

Premier Poincare and the Italian Ambas-
sador, Signor Tittoni. on Wednesday. the
ambassador declaring that he was fully
satisfied with the Premier's promise that
