deaths from wood alcohol in the Red
Hook section was presented to the
Kings County Grand Jury yesterday.
The Brooklyn prosecutor also gave the
jurors whatever data he obtained in
the search for the distributors of the

much of this information and SO many
witnesses to appear before the jury
that 1t was impossible to finish the
cases in which indictments are sought
Indictments are expected to-day.

district to enable the detectives TO OBJ

link the cause of the deaths with the
guilty persons.
With De Janero still alive Detectives
Mckenna and Begley have been working
TO run down the distributor in his case.
De Janero said he got drink from
man In the hallway of his address. He
failed to Identify suspects brought to
him by the detectives. Persisting in
their efforts the two detectives yesterday
obtained information that De Janero
procured drink o. liquor in the grocery
store of Nicola Azzisato at 135 Conover
street. They brought Azzisato and his
Wife to the hospital and questioned De
Janero, but he denied that they were
the persons who gave him liquor. Azzi-
sato and his wife were questioned by
Assistant District Attorney Marshal
Snyder, who let them go after, he said.
he was convinced they did not sell De
Janero liquor.
Mr.. Snyder said he obtained informa-
