feeling sick at school yesterday. were
william Nalley, the janitor Of the
school: Frederick Gull. engineer. and
George Barnes. watchman. all of whom
had eaten food at the dinner.
At the Health Department today 1t
was said that the investigation made by
Its officers so far showed "unmistakahle
evidences of bacterial poisoning" al
though the germs isolated in the food
samples now being examined had not
yet been identified. Twenty-four hours
more will be required for the germs now
being cultivated in incubators to de-
velop so that their exact nature can be
determined.
Blood cultures Of some Of the more
seriously striken victims were taken by
the health officers today 10 speed up the
results Of their investigation. Additional
evidences discovered in the food samples
themselves and through interviews with
the victims indicated even more strongly
that the potato salad which was eaten
by all the I'll diners was responsible for
the poisoning. The other foods. however,
have not been completely "exonerated'
of blame for the malady, they said.
Stephen E. Kramer, first assistant
superintendent OF schools, who with
Mrs. Kramer, WAS guest at the dinner
and among the victims. WAS still absent
from his Office I'm the Franklin Admin
istration Building today although he
was reported as considerably IMPROVED

Signals Indecipherable.

MacKay radio and telegraph opera
tors here heard Operator Warner OF
the Southern Cross start his transmit
ter at $40 am. He opened with
Southern Cross ." and the
signals took violent swing, the car
rier wave whistling sharply as the ship
evidently took q slanting downward
pitch. The signals were still audible
but undecipherable. At 3:42 they dis
appeared entirely and operators were
unable to pick them up.
E. II. Price, Mackay operator. who
had copied the planes messages steadily
since pm, last night, said 1t appeared
when the Southern Cross operator
opened his key that he was about to
give his position. Price said the violent
oscillation Of the wave band indicated
the Southern Cross had taken a drop
similar perhaps to those encountered
earlier when the monoplane was pass
ing through a terrific squall over the
South Pacific.
Messages Stop.
After the words Southern Cross
:" the operator OF the plane
did not attempt to write further, Price
said
He explained that when a plane loses
altitude suddenly, as in a sharp drop
or spin. the frequency of the trans
mitter rises in proportion, and trails off
in sharp scream. Such condition, he
said, existed. when communication
with the Southern Cross was intercepted
at 3:42 am.
Shortly before encountering the storm
the aviatorS grew philosophical A
message intercepted here said
AS Smithy Just remarked" he said
