Former Mies Eugenia Kelly Still Unable to Talk, However. Dr. Louis Nott Lanehart of Hemp- ead, L. 1, anid this morning that tho condition of Mra. A! Davis was much better and unless complications set in he expected raduai improvement. She has recovered consciousness to such an extent that she is able to nod ber head when she is asked @ ques- tion, but is not able to talk The doctor said he did that an operation would be necessary, as the patient will have to be much ati before a thorough examina- be made of her injuries.

Tho latter have been doing some tabulating on convention delegates recently, putting forth claims of having Roosevent pocketed. Mr. Perkins's attention was called to statements that un- ledged Republican delegates were being counted against Roosevelt “How many unpledged delegates are you counting for Col. Roosevelt?” was asked. “There have been chosen so far to the Republican National Convention 781 delegates, of whom 259 are pledged, leaving 542 uninstructed or free to fol- low their best judgment,” sald Mr. Perkins. “An unfortunate atte mpt is being made to create the impression that all these uninstructed delegates can be counted as so many votes against Roosevelt “This is not the fact. If unin- structed’ means anything it means that the delegate is not pledged for or against any candidate and, of course, this is what the voters who elected him intended when they re- frained from instructing him. To take any other position means to re- flect on the sincerity and good in- tention of the delegate.

Seven attach- ments on the property were filed yesterday, three of which seek to in- sure the return of money paid to Mra. Gilligan for the life care of inmates, The others were served by trados- men.

MADE MANY PURCHASES OF POISONS “FOR RATS.” The poison sale record at the store of W. H. H. Mason in Windsor shows that on Sept. 11, 1908, Mrs, Archer Gilligan bought thirteen ounces of corrosive sublimate of potash “for bed bugs;” on Oct, 21, 1913, four ounces of arsenic for “rats and mice;" on Feb, 17, 1914, ten ounces of arsenic acid “for rats;" on May 26, 1914, four days before the death of Andrews, two ounces of arsenic “for rats,” and on June 19, 1914, one pound of arsenic “for bugs and mice.” State policemen made a thorough search of the home yesterday, tak- ing away several bottles of medicine and other liquids, the contents of which the State’s attorney will have examined, Dr. H. F. King, medical examiner at Windsor, who signed the Andrews death certificate, said to-day he be- lieved Mrs. Gilligan innocent. He held no brief for the woman, he ex- plained, and did not feel he was im- plicated in the case, Clark Edward, retired builder in Windsor, who used to take occasional meals at Mrs, Gilligan's, was taken violently ill after dinner there one STRIKING ENGINEERS MAY TIE UP FERRIES Leader Declares Shipping Activity in Harbor Will Be Paralyzed | Unless Tug Owners Yield.

Delahunty, Sec- retary and Treasurer of the union and strike manager. The strike seemed to have reached a deadlock to-day and Mr, Delahunty was emphatic in declaring a decision must be reached without further delay. “ We have no wish to antagoniae or inconvenience the public,” he said, |"We have tried to show our dete mination and strength to the tug- boat owners and lighterage men with- out causing inconvenience to the rest of the community. But to win in our just cause. we must apparently go further. If the employers refuse to consider our grievances it will be- to be forced to do that.” Officials of the Baltimore and Railroad said six of the twelve of the line were being operated non-union men, Delahunty and his aides were confident the six. tugs would be tled up to-night, with all the company’s lighters, throwing 160 men out of work, Many ocean liners @re now going into dock under thelr own power at some risk.

He visited Mrs. Gilligan in jail here to- day together with her daughter, Mary B. Archer, a girl of eighteen. “We know mother is innocent,” de- clared the daughter to the reporters, “and we will fight the case against her to the end.” BOUGHT POISON JUST BEFORE ANDREWS DIED. Capt. Robert T. Hurley, who began an investigation thirteen months ago into the deaths at the Archer Home, when seen by a reporter for The Evening World was emphatic in his statement that the case against Mrs, Gilligan was not based solely on cir- cumstantial evidence. “We know she bought poison just before Andrews died,” he said, wand | we found poison in the body. There ts a great deal of evidence available | which we could not get before, be- cause we did not want to let it be- come known that we were investigat. ing. Now we can go ahead and get that evidence. Of course, I merely carry out the orders of the State's Attorney, but I feel safe in saying the investigation will be pushed harder than ever from now on.” From other sources it was learned that the State's Attorney is in pos. session of direct evidence tending to show that Mrs. Gilligan was respon. sible for patients taking poison which resulted in their death, “I am convinced it was a case of cool, calculating, premeditated mur- der,” Mr. Alcorn said. He is under- stood to have evidence warranting a definite suspicion of murder in seven cases, while other estimates of the probable number of deaths of sus- Picious nature in the home run as high as twenty. There have been forty-eight deaths at the Archer Home since Jan. 1, 1911, forty-seven of which were inmates. | During that same period at the Old! Peoples’ Home in this city practieally | tho same number of deaths have oc. | curred, with about six times as man inmates in the local in the “home” at Windsor.

He had been told by neighbors that “there was something mysterious about the number of deaths at the Archer home,” but he would not say whether he had ever seen anything there himself which made him sus- picious. — 2,000 PROTEST AGAINST SCHOOL LUNCH FUND It Is Inferior and Costs Too Much, Erasmus Students Say in Petition. A petition demanding better and cheaper food in thelr school lunch room was put In circulation by stu- dents of Erasmus Hall High School yesterday, By evening 2,000 had signed It, Horace Greeley of No. 140 Clinton Street, great grandson of the editor, heads the students in their protest, “The rates for food are exorbitant and the class inferior to what we can get outside for less money,” said Greeley to a World reporter last night. When asked what action the students might take if their demands were not met Greeley remarked: “Just wait and see; perhaps it will be a walkout. We intend to wait, however, until Dr, Gunnison returns before any decistve action is taken,” Dr. Walter Gunnison, Principal of Erasmus, |s suffering from a nervous breakdown.
