1t is considered extremely unlikely

German One Founder Falls
From Shelf to Gas Stove and
Explodes in Room.
WOUNDED MAN INJURED
Had Face Shot in France and
Now Loses Hearing-Com-
panion's Foot Ripped.

Joseph McLein of Roxbury. Mass,
had one side Of his face shot away
while fighting with the American
Army in France, and later became
deaf in his right ear as a result of a
fall of $500 feet from an airplane
which German aviator had machine
gunned. He was In a hospital many
months. and after he was discharged
he was not able to do much work and
was largely dependent on the Red
Cross and his Government allotment.
About three months ago he and Harold
J. Alderman. also a war veteran but
who was not hurt in France. got jobs
as elevator operators in the apartment
house at 125 West Fifty-eighth street.
One of the men who worked there be-
fore them had also been war veteran.
and he had filled the operators room. on
the ground floor rear, with souvenirs.
among them two German one pound
high explosive shells These were on a
shelf above tle bed. the shelf being a
plank laid across two supports nailed
to the wall. McLein and Alderman
lived there several weeks, but recently
Ackerman took a room by himself in
the front of the house. Yesterday he
went into the rear room to move the
remainder of his belongings.
Some OF these were on the shelf. and
Alderman was standing on the bed TAX
Ing them down when McLein entered
and asked where the coffee percolator
was Ciinging to the shelf. Ackerman
turned and pointed. and as he did so
the shelf tipped. Both the shells fell,
one Of them dropping on the gas stove.
1t exploded Fragments Of the she'll cas-
ing were hurled about the room, some OF
them digging into the walls and ceilings.
but one jagged fragment of steel rip
ped into Ackerman's right foot, tearing
the ligaments and inflicting a serious
wound and another cut the muscles Of
his left hand.
The concussion of one pound shell IS
not particularly heavy, but the heaviness
of this explosion was increased by the
closeness of the room. SO that II was
sufficient to smash McLein's remaining
ear drum and destroy the hearing OF his
left ear. Completely deaf. and with every
shocked nerve jangling. McLein ran
screaming from the room and into the
street followed by Ackerman with blood
pouring from his injured foot and hand.
Both men ran into the house next door.
at 127 West Fifty-eighth street. and col
lapsed in the hallway.
Hawkins sent for DR.. Edward NJ.
Overton. who lives in the house at 127.
and he hurried Alderman TO Bellevue IN
an ambulance. He worked over McLein
for more than an hour. but could not
restore his hearing and sent him to the
New York Eye and Ear Hospital There
is was said that the former soldier prob
ably would be completely deaf for tho
rest OF his life.

Three Students Examined
by Local Police and Re-
turn to College.
'SPINOZA' A NEW SUSPECT!
Fire Cry at Midnight Latest
Amusement-Mulligan Is
Believed Blameless.

Special Dispatch to THE New YORK HERALr,
HARTFORD, Feb. 25.-One of the $50
students of Trinity College with a
tendency toward pyromanla, abundant
nerve and more than elementary
knowledge of chemistry is responsible
for the seven mysterious fires that
have all but demoralized that institu-
ton. There may be more than one
two or three working together per-
maps, or maybe more-although that
seems unlikely.
However, whether it be one or
dozen. he or they have worked with
consummate cunning, and thus far
have baffled utterly the State and
local police. But these are the lines
upon which the State police, directed
by their superintendent, Robert T.
Hurley, are working. How near to
solving the Trinity mystery Hurley
and his men have come is not being
divulged by Hurley. That he will
make an arrest is almost certain, but
just when it. is not possible to predict
Examined for Two Hours.
There seems TO be one general belief
and that is that George Mulligan, the
freshman arrested Thursday night after
the seventh fire was discovered in the
clothes press in his room, is not the
guilty one. Hurley has held 60 this be-
lief from the start. and 50 complete is
the trust the Trinity College authorities
have placed in Hurley that the Rev. DR..
K. q. Ogilby, president of the college.
has let the police understand that he
prefers them to withdraw and permit
Hurley to investigate alcne.
For two hours to-day George Mulligan
was examined for signs of abnormality
or disposition toward irregularty in de-
pertinent. DIR. Paul Waterman, neu-
rologist once associated with Dr. Menas

Not me : Fires may burn and burn and
burn in the future without word OF
protest from me. saw what you did
to Mulligan."
The Rev. DR.. Ogilvy declines to dis
cuss the mystery. The student body has
suddenly become reticent They agree
that Mulligan is not the pyromaniac.
They appear to be certain that Mulligan
will be discharged when he appears in
court Friday. But the academic life Of
Trinity has all but disappeared.
"Oh. sure, there are classes every
day" declared one of the students to-
day. "but they don't mean anything"
The favorite method of amusing"
oneself at Trinity these nights is to
poke ones head from a window about
midnight and yell fire" One OF the
lads tried it last night He is big
boy with a Scotti baritone. He chose
the minute of midnight to test his lung
power Inhaling deeply, he beloved
Fire! Fire" Then he repaired to the
quadrangle to take in the furore.
Beds, tanks. bags, rugs, books, furni-
ture. stray coats and hats and trousers
sailed out of the dormitory windows.
z A collegiate downpour rewarded the
Baritone youth. Estimates of the time
required to clean the dormitory rooms
vary. but none say that it took moro
than three minutes. The immediate
grounds took on the aspect of the re-
ceiving halls at Ellis Island and when
the deceived students discovered that
there was neither smoke nor flame with
in the institution they perched them
selves upon their earthly goods and sang
Beneath the I-ims" and other Trinity
hymns.
And by the way of showing that they
entertained no hostility toward the bari
tone humorist, they got together and
yelled the Ions "Trin" with six Multi
gans."

CIapp Is Assisting Police.

Werner w. Clapp of Poughkeepsie.
senior and captain of the track team.
who was one of the three students eX-
aminedN by the local police tonight, SAID
he had been asked to assist them In
their investigation. Clapp said that ne
did not know how valuable he would
be, but nasmuch as he is looked upon
as one of the leaders in student actiV-
tiles and probably is more conversant
with the ~iovements of his fellow stu
dents than any other man in collese
his views are considered worth while
the police say
The State police pred ct results anc
they work along the lines set iorth at
the beginning of this account They are
convinced that chemica,s have been used
to start and urge on the Tres. There are
many reasons for their premise. First
Of all. the fires have been atte- ded by
great volumes of acrid dense smoke
Even the small CO .,Lagrations have
given off this same heavy ST .oke In
waves far out of proportion to the size
of the flames.
Furthermore the fires have rad all
the characteristics of the spor aneous
combustion variety. The first fire, for
example. occurred in a closed bookcase
in the study of Prof John J. McCcok
Heavy and closely pacxed mas azines
were discovered ablaze. There vas not
the oxygen necessary to susts in fire
within that closed ,abinet. Moreover
any one who has tried TO burn a number
of whole magazines compactly eld to-
gether will realize y. w difficult it is
for plain fire to do much damage
In another case brief fire ccnfiled
within a closet caused damage that ordi
nary flames would have required an
hour to do. 1t did is work IN five
minutes. There was ordor OF gaso-
line. Therefore the rhemicais theory.
Again. fire has ATTACKED and .sur1ed
hardwood furniture aTainst or or which
no kindling nor paper had fist ben
placed. In fact, there is every indica-
ton that chemicals have beer used.
Moreover so daring 1as the perpetrator
of these outrages be N that il is not
unnatural for the State police to look
for a pyromaniac.
