HELD FOR ARSON, WOMAN A SUICIDE
Wealthy Brooklyn Widow Was
 Arrested at Milford

New York. Dec. 16.-LP>--- II was F. Conlin, a wealthy widow of Brooklyn, died suddenly Sunday in the kitchen in the home of her daughter, Mrs. George c. Dagher. 62 Clark street. Brooklyn. Death was due to inhalation of Illuminating gas. All the cocks on the gas range are said 10 have been open, accord ing to the health department rec ords.
 It is asserted that James E. Mur- phy of Bridgeport, attorney for Mrs. Conlin today notified Omar W, Platt the Milford prosecutor, of the death of Mrs, Conlin, which he is alleged to have attributed to heart disease. Mir. Murphy is said to have added that he would forward the prosecutor a certificate of health.
 Mrs. Conlin had been released last Friday on 5000 bail at Milford. Conn.,, on a charge of "idleness.' The police of Milford reported that they had traced her footprints in the soft snow for two miles from the scene of an alleged incendlarv blaze at Silver Beach. a popular summer resort near Milford, where during the past IS months it is said there have been six ncendiary blazes which did damage aggregating S75.- 900. Another hearing in the case of Mrs. Conlin was set for December q.
 It Is said that Mrs. Conlin had been i'll for ten years and under the care of physicians; that she was much affected by the suicide of her son, an eN-nayy man. suffering from shcu-shock. Young Conlin four years ago jumped into vat of boiling water in the navy psychopathic hos pital in Brooklyn. After this, 1t is said Mrs. Conlin evnced a strange and morbid interest in fires of any kind particularly when the moon was at the full, as is said to have been the case when the last fire occurred at Silver Beach.
