As soon the door was openea they were nearly driven back by gas. Feillo ran to the gas-jet and found that it had been turn. ed on full force. Glancing at the bed in which the two women had slept, he found they were unconscious. Physicians were hastily summoned and they went to work te save the women After several hours they finally su ceeded in restoring them to consciou ness. The life of one of the you. wemen was at first despaired of by the physicians, and she is even now so weak that she may die from the effects of in- haling gas any minute. Proprietor Fello refused to make pub lic the names of the young women, nor will he tell where they come from, Th book whien contained the names of the women has been removed temporarily. It is not even thought that the police know the vames of the young women. When tse young women had been sufficiently revived to make a state- ment, one of them said that she and her companion went to bed leaving the win- dow open, and that the wind must have Llown out the gas. She denied that she or her friend had attempted to Kill themselves and said they had nothing tc worry about, This sto} cor dors not prove to be quit t. The window {n the room occu- pied by, the young women was dow: when Proprietor Felio and the others got in, The lower amb of the door wat also stuffed with clothing, and the key being in the door, prevented any g coming from the room through the ke ole. Another fact that throws disbelief or the statement made by the young wo man is that If there was wind enougt to blow the gas out there must have been wind enough in the room to pre Vent the yous Women from being near ly suffe When confronted wit) these facts they refused to say any- Both young women are about twenty rs of age.
