FOUND UNCONSCIOUS IN GAS FILLED ROOM
Andrew J. Smith, 39 Law Tor Street, in Critical
 Condition

Overcome by Illuminating gas while sleeping at his home, 39 Law Tor street, Andrew J. Smith. 39. was removed to New Britain General hospital in critical condition shortly after 6 o'clock this morning. Whether he fell against the gas jet in his bedroom and accidentally turned it on or made an attempt on his life was not known today. the police finding conditions to sub- stantiate both theories. Smith has for a number of years been employed as driver for a lumber concern and is well known. He Is unmarried.
 Mrs. Daniel German. Smiths sis ter, smelled gas in the house about 5:30 o'clock and traced it to Smiths s TO m which is directly off the kitch- en. She was uncb ble to open the door ana her husband was forced to break it to gain entrance. He found that a chair had been propped under the knob on the inside in such a manner as to prevent the door from being opened. The gas was pouring from the open jet on the wall and Smith was unconscious.
 Lieut.. Matthias Rival was notified and detailed Sergeant T. J. Fee ney and Officers J. H. McCabe and T. c. Dolan. They gave Smith black coffee and administered spirits of ammonia before taking him to the hospital. His sister told them she knew of no reason for an attempt at suicide as Smith was working st. adily and had not complained of anything or given any other indica- ton of dissatisfaction with life.
 The police learned at Smith was under the influence of liquor when he reached home last night and his sister and her husband heard him singing in his room about mid night. That he staggered and acci- dentally struck the gas jet is possi- ble, the police say. The house is electrically wired and the gas is not ord'" arily used fer illuminating pur- poses, Mrs. German said.
