The discovery, coupled with the disap-
pearance of a kitchen employee Of the
club and the finding of similar poison
in n private laboratory in his room, to-
gether with literature classed as an
al chistic, led the police to believe that
the illness which overcome more than
100 of the diners was the result of q
deliberate attempt to poison the guests.

and fear that perhaps a slow acting
poison had also been mingled with the
banquet Wand prompted City Health
Commissioner Dr. John d. Robertson. to
issue a warning to all who attended
the banquet to place themselves imme-
diateIy under the care OF a physician.
Several OF the distinguished guests we're
so affected that they have not yet re-
GOV cred Two are still confined to their
beds and a number of others today said
they still felt the effects Of the poison
Gus soup.
Archbishop Mundelein was not af-
fected. He ate very sparingly of the
soup. The absence Of Jean Crones, as
sistant chef at the club. was noted by
Manager II. j. DOneFlys anu ms ruS-
picions were aroused. With a policeman
he went to Crones room and there DIS
covered the laboratory and found poison
TASKS.
Crones, according TO the club officials,
was employed last September ahd was
fond OF discussing economic questions
and was said TO have often inveighed
against the present order of society with
itx status Of rich and poor. In the room
he had occupied the police say they
found many volumes by anarchistic au-
thors. explosives and weapons. In addi-
ton to the poison Walls. He was said
by the police to have come TO Chicago
from ST. Louis and his description was
sent to various cities.
Among the guests at the banquet who
were affected by the poison were pre-
lates, judges. bankers. noted physi-
clans, representatives. business men and
manufacturers prominent in the affairs
