Y., February 13.—How an unusually hot day rendered an or- inarily harmless chemical solution deadly to finny life and left Congers lake strewn with bloated fish on a Sunday morning last June was re. vealed today before Supreme Court Justice Tompkins. The revelatiorr came when the Rev. John A. Nageleisen, pastor of St. Nicholas’ Roman Catholic Church, New York City, and owner of large Summer eamp on Congers Lake, was arraigned on a charge of killing 600 to 700 game fish by distributing blue vitriol around the shores of the lake. Dr. Emilene Moore, a State chemist and fish-culture expert, who was called to testify for the prosecution, admitted - under . questioning by the priest’s lawyer, John McCormick, that the four barrels of vitriol dumped into the lake at Father Nageleisen's order to clear the shore of weeds and scum, might not have killed the fish if the temperature next day had not gone above 100 degrees. Charles Cook, In charge of State em- ployes who care for Rockland Lake, nearby, testified he used blue vitriol in about the proportions indicated to clear the water of weeds and never killed a fish.
