EIGHT IN ONE WARD DIE
Autopsy Shows Use Of Oxalic Acid

der Suspicion.

NEW YORK, February 23.-The mys-
terry Of the deaths of eight children, the
Oldest ten months, and the illness of four
other infants in the Brooklyn Nursery
and Infants Hospital, since Sunday. was
expected today to be solved by chem
ical analysis of the contents of the stom-
ach of two of the dead children. An ir-
ritant poison, believed to be oxalic acid
mixed with limewater and milk, was in
Dictated by an autopsy.
All Of the poisoned babies were in one
ward. and there are only four children
in the ward who have not shown symp-
toms Of poisoning. Physicians scout the
idea that the children suffered from any
disease of which they were not cognizant.
Coroner's Physician Wuest said that
the evidence in the cases suggests the
theory of deliberate poisoning, perhaps
by some hospital attendant afflicted with
hOmicidal mania
