Investigation Cohcerning the Death of Colored Infant. Coroner Carr held an Inquest this after- noon at the sixth precinct station to ascer- tain the facts attending the death of an in- fant belonging to Frances Lee, colored, who lived at 835 2d street southeast. As pub- shed in Tuesday's Star, the young woman called at Freedmen’s Hospital Sunday and the doctors refused to admit her because she was unable to comply with the rules of the institution. She went home and that night her child was born. Monday she re- turned to the hospital, and when the doc- tors heard her story, to the effect that the child had dropped into the sewer at her home, the case was reported to the police. Detectives Parham and Gallaher made an Investigation and found the body of the child in an outhouse several doors from where the woman lived.
