New Britain | EW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 27, 1919, DEATHS INCREASE (Continued from First Page.) “{o comb the borough thoroughly un- til the culprits are brought in.” announced that Mr McLaughlin would leave immediately for Hartford, Conn., and other New Lnzland points “to in- vestigate reports crediting the Bronx as being the source of supply of this poisoned fluid.” The health department also fo- cussed its attention today on wood al- cohol poisoning. Commissioner Cope- land telegraphed the Hartford health : authorities for all cues indicating that the fatal sypply of whiskey had been receivéd frém New York. At the same time, Ole Salthe, acting director of the bureau of foods and drugs, ordered a speclal survey to de- termine whether any restaurants or saloons in this city were selling the poison. Inspection forces were order- ed doubled, with special attention to In these sections inspectors were d rected to search saloons from cellar to garret. Attention of physicians was drawn today by Dr. D. S. Dana Hubbard, di- rector of the bureau of public health education, to a section of the sanitar code requiring all cases of wood alco- hol poisoning to be reported immedi- ately to the health department. A scientific fight against all poison- ous substitutes for liquor has been started in New York. Associated with Dr. Charles Norris, chief medical ex- aminer, in this work are the New York county medical association and the national committee for the preven- tion of blindness. In addition to the crusade against woed alcohol, Dr. Royal S. Copeland, commissioner of health, has announced the department He ; will analyze many home made drinks. Some of the substitutes for whiskey, made according to recipes widely ad- vertised, contain fusil oil and other dangerous ingredients, according to the commissioner, A determined ef- fort also is being made to find out if any methyl alcohol is being diverted from paint shops or other industrial use and resold 'for beverage purposes. New York Alarmed. Néw York, Dec. 27.—Federal agents, health authorities and police in many cities in the east were stirred into ac- tion today against traffic in “whis- key” made from wood alcohol follow: ing the wave of deaths and blindness from this cause in Massachusetts and Connecticut. The death list of vie- tims of Xmas ‘“cheer” in these states totalled at least 41 early today. Offi- cials declared it probable that unre- ported cases by the score exist from coast to coast. A general warning has been issued here by agencies eo- operating in the fight, telling the pub- lic of the danger lurking in anything that passes for whiskey in saloons. Arrests were expected in New York today in connection with the deaths in Chicopee Falls and Holyoke, Mass., and Hartford, Conn., the three towns hardest hit by the poison drunk as liquor. Department of justice agents an- nounce they have traced the ‘‘whis- key’ to New York where they say it was made. : Five Dead in Chicago. Chicago, Dec. 27.—Five victims of wood alcohol poisoning are dead here, a sixth is dying and several others are seriously ill as a result of Xmas orgies. Federal and local authorities opened a vigorous investigation today to fix responsibility for the sale of the poison. County and city officials here today joined hands for a crusade against the selling, as a beverage, of wood alco- hol, which, since July 1, has killed approximately 35 men. Four today vere in hospitals unconscious from drinking wood alcohol and four died yesterday. Many Since July. “We have held inquests on 28 or 30 bodies since July 1, all victims of this drug,” said Peter M. Hoffman, coro- ner of Cook county. “I expect a lot more {in a few days from New Year celebrations.” One ordinary drink of wood alcohol can malie a man permanently blind and sometimes kill him, Mr. Hoffman added. Two men who sold wood alcohol to men who died after drinking it have been held for the grand jury on mur- der charges. A city ordinance which would limit the sale of wood alcohol to commer- cial men alone and remove it from drug stores and saloons is expected to be submitted within a few days. Ninc in Cleveland. Cleveland, O., Dec. 27.—Nine new victims of wood alcohol poisoning were in Cleveland hospitals today, raising the week’s total of sufferers from drinking the whiskey substitute to 24 In the same period three deaths have been attributed to wood or denatured alcohol poisoning, plac- ing the fatality toll for the month at 14. Viia Ozanic is under arrest today charged with murder and is said by Sheriff Hanretty to have confessed to shooting Nicholas Osdrich, 30, of West Park, a boarder, following the drink- at a Christmas Day celebration. Os- drich’s body was found late yesterday. Newark, N. J.,, Dec. 27.—Wood al- coho] poisoning today caused the deaths of two persons at the City hospital bringing the death list from that cause to five during the last two weeks. One of teday’s victims, who has not yet been identified, was found unconscious on a bench in New street. Detaiils of the other case have not yet been made public Three persons are under arrest in connectiion with the death of the first three victims. “Hunt Them Down.” New Haven, Dec. 27—Mayor David E.
