Mysterious Gas
Attacks Workers in
Army Clothing Shop

NEW YORK. Feb. oo.-Almost
$50 persons employed in West
Thlrteeth street loft building,
where army uniforms are made,
have been overcome by fumes OF
some mysterious gas since noon
yesterday. All efforts Of health
department officials and the police
to trace the gas have been un-
successful. It was said tonight
federal agents might be called
into the inquiry.
A quantity Of khaki cloth was
received by a contractor on the
ninth floor, Tuesday. and imme-
diateIy after the elevator men who
had handled it became i'll. From
that time throughout the after
noon workers became unconscious
all over that floor and in shops on
three stories above. They were
revived and sent home.
This morning the odor was again
noticed and by 10 o'clock so many
persons had been overcome that
the plant was shut down and call
sent for the police. who summoned
doctors and ambulances. After
first aid had been administered,
the victims regained conscious
ness.
The doctors, who found that the
patients complained Of queer
sensation in their throats. were
unable to locate the trouble, and
the police sent for physicians from
the department Of health. lnVesti-
cation showed that the casualty
list was confined to the uniform
shop and the floors above. About
5000 per sons are employed in the

pumping sewer back-water from
their Easements. Various up

the flood.
A heavy rainfall over the Wa

"The maximum stage expected
at Wheeling is 81 feet, accord

Forecaster pennyHitt stated to-
night. at is hardly possible that
the stage will exceed that figure,
and it may fall a foot short OF
