Woman on Death
Bed Refuses to
Reveal Identity

Chicago, April s3.--A tiny watch
with an orxute and involved mono
gram, pair OF eye glasses and their
receptacle are all that officials have
to identity the woman dying of slow
poison at the county hospital and per
sis,ently refusing to make known her
identity.
The case has excited unusual IN
terest, AZ the patient appears To be a
woman of education and refinement.
Last Monday. after removing marks
of identification from her clothing'
she took the poison,
She is conscious most Of the time
and shows interest in the many
visitors who go TO Der room. seeking
to find In her some missing relative
or friend.
The monogram. which covers the
back of the watch, was worn thin. IL
was read by one jeweler as IF. Nc. NJ
w" and by another as ~. NJ. NJ. n.
The spectacle case found in her
effects bears the imprint OF j. f. h
Relich 4 Sons. who. the inscription
indicates. have five stores in New YORK
City and one in Brooklyn. A descrip-
tion of tho lenses, including measure
ments have been sent to New York.
Physicians yesterday had difficulty
in getting her to eat.
"You will die If you DON'T" suggested
one of the doctors.
"But | wish to die" she answered
brightly. as is her wont.
There are ways of getting food into
the stomach whether the patient wants
1t or not" argued the physicians,
''Oh. well. in that case alright.
The patient thereupon ate heartily.
She said she enjoyed matching her
wits against those persons seeking to
trick her into divuiGing her identity.
On one occasion when asked why she
wished to die she singled out a few
grey hairs and said: Perhaps this is
the reason"
Her condition was said to be critical
today and unless the New York clews
developed her identity. it was feared
she might go TO the grave unknown.
Even the remark that the bodies OF
unknown persons who die in public
institutions are given over TO medical
schools for dissection did not move
her.
"When l am dead I don't care what
becomes of my body she said.

Budapest. April 22.-The city is go
ing thru crisis worse than that of
April 8. There is apprehension that
there will be violent swing-to an
archy, with the socialists losing con-
troll to bolshevik leaders like Bella Kun
and chiefs of the red guard. Looting,
which hitherto has been held In check
or le2alized as the naturalization OF
property" and the assa ssination of the
old political leaders and the aristo-
Gratis are feared.
The fact that the communists are
unable to prevent the allies from oc-
cupying the districts involved Is
weakening the influence of Bella Kun
and is causing violent hatred against
the allies among the Hungarians.

Altho the peace conference in
Paris has passed along for future

one of the two troublesome dues-
tioRs standing in the way of the
final shaping of the peace treaty,
the. italian difficulty, was still
pressing for solution at today's
meetings of the conference leaders.

1t seems to be established that
the soviet government Of Hungary
has crumbled. but the situation is

tories at Budapest are in full
operation, it is said.
The report that soviet regime

Paris Press Satisfied.
Satisfaction Is expressed by the Paris
press at the speedy subsidence o: sae
furry over the question OF what Ger
man delegate should come to Ner-
sailles. The deduction Is drawn thai
the only thinS> necessary to bring
about the failure of such dilatory
maneuvers by the Germans is to speak
clearly and firmly to them.
II is pointed out that the only benefit
if there be any. which Germany has
secured is to delay the opening of the
negotiations for a few days. The solu-
ton is attributed by the press OF all
parties to the energetic attitude of the
enaente, which is accounted a good
omen for the success Of the Versailles
negotiations.
American newspaper correspondents
in Paris will hold a meeting tomorrow
to decide whether to make a formal
protest against the plan to exclude
representatives of the press from the
meetings of the allied and German
peace delegates at Versailles and the
plan forbidding them TO come in con-
tact with the German delegates in any
way.
Under the present plans the press
will be represented at the meetings
only when the final and formal sign
ing of the treaty occurs.
