Eugene c. Eeary. twenty-five years
old. student in Georgetown Universi-
ty Medical School, died shortly after
o'clock last night in his room. at
1918 18th street, having been taken
sick shortly after leaving school. where
he tasted a poison htat was passed
among the students for the purpose
of familiarizing themselves with it.
An autopsy performed on the body
at Wrights undertaking establish
ment this morning by Coroner hewitt
and Deputy Coroner Martyr. showed
that death resulted from an irritant
poison. the coroner reported.
Coroner hewitt arranged to swear a
jury over the body at the undertaking
establishment late this afternoon, and
will hold an inquest at the morgue at
1880 clock Saturday morning. A
brother of the dead youth reached
here this morning from Belleville. n.
J., home of the Ne.rys, and will take
the body to Belleville for interment.
Aconotine. an alkaloid of aconite. said
to be regarded as a deadly poison. is
what the medical student is reported
to have tasted shortly before he was
taken sick. Coroner hewitt told Star
reporter it was nothing out of the or
binary for medical students to taste
poisons. He did SO when he was a
student, he said.
Students Were Warned.
1t is said that one-twenty- fifth of a
grain of the particular poison is toxic
dose. The coroner said he was told
that when the poison was passed
among the students they were warned
that it was deadly and told to be care
full about handling it.
DR.. Neyitt was told that the poison
was tasted by Neary late in the after
noon, and that he became ill some
time after the class was dismissed
for the day. Fellow students were
with him when he was stricken, and.
as soon as they realized that he was
seriously ill. they summoned ply
sician. The physician was unable to
save Neary's life.
Neary. DR.. Nevitt stated. was fine
specimen of manhood. He presented
an apparently perfect picture of
health and weighed nearly 200 pounds.
Inspector Grant. chief of detectives,
was told of the death OF the student
by the coroner. Detectives will par
ticipate in an investigation and sum-
monwitnesses to appear at the in
quest. A chemical analysis is being
made to definitely determine the ex-
act irritant that caused death.

ASKS new CONDUIT
BE BEGUN THIS YEAR
F. R. Weller Tells House SUBJ
committee of Growing
Danger to City.

The urgent necessity of beginning
work this year on the additional con-
duit to increase Washington's water
supply was laid before the District
subcommittee of the House appropria-
tions committee yesterday by Francis
r. Weller. chairman of the water
supply committee of the Board of
Trade.
Mr.. Weller. along with representa-
tives of other trade and civic organi-
cations. is anxious to impress upon
of the District water supply under
present conditions is reality.
Although no accidents have occurred
to the existing water system Of suf-
3ficient seriousness to cause a short

tion today to the fact that the city 10

SO close to the capacity OF the reser-
voirs that neither the conduit from
ries the water to the filtration plant
can be closed for repairs.
While the existing conduit has
functioned for fifty-nine years with
out serious miShap. Mr.. Weller said
today that this long service is in
itself a forceful reason why the Ma
tional Capital should not be sub
jected to the dangerous possibilities
of a break at this time.
The Commissioners budget for the
next fiscal year asked for 100000
to begin construction of the new
conduit. to parallel the existing one
from Great Falls to Georgetown.
Even if that sum is appropriated now
work could not be started until July
/, and it would take at least three
years from that date to complete the
project.
If the city continues to develop
during that time at the present rate.
Mr. Weller said today, the situation
with regard to water would be cor
respondingly more serious If the new
conduit is not built within that
period.
The representatives of the civic
and trade organizations are confident
tina. if the item is included in the
appropriation bill the House and Sen.
ate will not hesitate to authorize it
knowing as they do the possible con-
sequences of postponing longer this
project.
