AUTOPSY IN WESTERLY CASE
State Orders Dr. M H. scanlon Investigate Death of Tim
 othy Sulivan-0ne of 42 Poisoned by Eating Custard Pe-Band of Gypsies Followed and Horses Tested for Glanders- More Salary for Bradford Postmaster

The epidemic of ptomaine poisoning In Westerly has reached its limit. As near as can be ascertatned, there were S7 cases. all of @ serious nature. and all traced to the eating of custard pie obtained in a restaurant located just over the boundary line in the village Of Pawcatuck, in the town of Stoning- ton. Just what caused the poisoning whether it was from the milk, the eggs, the flour. the cocoanut or the shorten ing, or some foreign substance, has not been determined and there has been a delay in the official investigation There is report that cottonsed oil of a new brand had been used in connection with the making of the piecrust, and that ingredient. This is discredited, however, as the crust used for the GUS taxd pies was the same as used in other pies. yet only those who ate of the custard were poisoned
 Some of the persons poisoned are residents of Pawcatuck. the poisonous pdeS were made and sold in that vfl- lages but so far as can be ascertained the health officer of the town of Ston- ington hassmade no investigation.
 Following is the list of thoee, an far as can be ascertained, who suffered from ptomaine poisoning traced direct 1y to the custard pies, end all from the same source, total of 42: Ray mond Rane,i chauffeur, Philadelphia; Chester Burdick, Westerly; John Ben nett.
