 He began to feel drowsy. At the same time he noticed his child breath ing as if to ward off coughing sen sation. He went to the child's side to awaken him and fell on the floor unconscious in a Stupor.
 His wife also complained of the fumes that were filling the room, and as she saw her husband fall rushed to the kitchen where she procured restoratives which she administered to him. They proved of no avail, however, and it was necessary to sum- mon a doctor before he could be re- vived.
 Detectives who were assigned to the case this morning according to reports filed at police headquarters have dis covered acid marks on the window sill of the home and it is believed that some enemy of Steinhardt's is respon- sible for what happened.

There is no question but what the ills of women conspire against do- nestle harmony.
