She Left Charges Alone;
Coler Aids Investigation

Bird S. Coler, Commissioner of
Charities, announced yesterday that he
is cooperating with the District Attor-
ney's office in thorough investigation
into the death Of three -year-old Phlo-
mena D'Elia on April in the City
Hospital on Blackwell's Island
There is no doubt in nv mind"
said Commissioner Coler, that some
one was extremely careless and posi-
bly, criminally negligent We intend
to carry on our investigation until we
have fixed the responsibility and we
viii leave it to the District Attorneys
office TO FIX the punishment.
Assistant District Attorney John z.
Joyce, of the Homicide Bureau. as
sisted by representatives Of the De
partment Of Charities, conducted the
first session of the inquiry yesterday.
At its close, he made the following
statement:
We have learned that the child died
as result of a bath in scalding water.
she was placed in the bathtub bv q
ten-year-old girl of the same ward
VINO attempted to battle the little one
IN the absence Of nurse The girl
SAID she turned on the hot water. al
though she intended to turn on the
cold.
The floor Of the Clearing Bureau
IN the hospital where the child was a
patient is divided into two wards. one
Tor girls and another for boys There
are twenty-one children in each The
nurse IN charge of the girs' ward ad-
mtted that she departed at $50 in
the evening, although the night nurse
DID not arrive until o'clock. It was
her last day there. She was leaving
Tor another position out Of town and
was hurrylng to catch boat. She
said the. nurse in the boys ward had
promised to care for her charges until
the night nurse came. We know that
there was no nurse in the ward when
the child was taken to the bathroom
and scalded to death. Some one has
been lnexcusaby careless, but whether
criminally so or not, we have not as
yet determined"
