W Arsenic poisoning did not bring
bout -the deaths of four members of
the family of Joe Lee of Baidock, Allendale
county, judging from the con**

rdltion or tne swiuu.u auu latcdiiu^o
of the mother of ILe family, according
to the report submitted to Governor
Cooper by Dr. C. V. Akin, representative
of the state board of
health, who, in company with Dr. A.
H. Hayden, epidemiologist of the
state health body, went to Baldock
Tuesday to investigate the deaths
I from a health standpoint.
Four members of this family have
died and the father is now very ill in
1 a hospital in Augusta. T iree children
of the family died last. week and the
mother passed away last Monday. The
state health department was req,uest'
ed by physicians and citizens of the
- >' community to send representatives to
~ * make an investigation, and Tuesday
\ Dr. Hayden and Dr. Akin went to
Baldock. Wednesday morning Dr. Ai1-;

H To Examine Internal Organs.
Dr. Akin said Wednesday that the
B- internal organ of one of the children
B had been sent to Clemson college for
HI examination, and that the internal orW
gans of >the mother had been sent to
Cliarle9ton. If arsenic in sufficient

ed with" food or watpr, the examinations
now being made should readily
detect tbe presence of the poison. Dr.
>; Akin said.
A .well, located near a stable lot,
furnished the water for the family.
Dr. Akin says physicians of the community
said, they had examined the
water and found present in it "wiggle

much alive. The presence of these
animals in a living state was opposed
to the theory of the well being poisoned,
Dr. Akin says. Symptoms described
by attending physicians also
tend to rule out the poison theory.
Files Report.
\ The report of Dr. 2Akin on the
; * cases follows:
"At the request of certain physi.
*v clans and other citizens of Allendale
* county, the South Carolina state
board of health and representatives
to investigate several deaths occur nty
in fcimilv residing near
IBaldock, Allendale county, South
Carolina.
"The suddenness of the illness and
the severity of the symptoms of each
of the five members of this family
led to the belief that some poison
liad been ingested. It was for the
.iMiiTYi-kcui rtt <lotormi"ninep whether the
yuiyvuv wi o
deaths had occurred from some infectious
disease or from some poison
S taken in food or drink that the investigation
was conducted.
"The history of the trouble showed
that following a sudden onset with
marked symptoms of nausea, vomit v
v ing and temperature associated with
an eruption; complicated by delirium
and convulsions the mother and three
1 children of from two to six years died j
W as the result of illness lasting two
Bp weeks or less. The father, who was
Kfe- similarly affected, had survived the
Kf attack and was sent to Augusta for
Br hospital treatment, leaving on the
9 same train on which the representaf
tives of the state board of health arj
rived. ?
- "At fhe request of a jury convened
I l by the coroner, an autopsy was per^
fnrmftH nn the >bodv of the mother,
If;;. * the last of the family to die. Two local
physicians were designated by the
> 4.coroner's jury to conduct the postmortem
examination which was carried
out with the assistance of the
state representatives.
' "This examination, which was com'
plete and exhaustive as regards the
abdominal and thoracic organs, failed
["X to disclose any evidence of injury
to the stomach and intestines, as
might have occurred from the ingestion
of one of the metallic or
eseharotic poisons. On visual inspection
the stomach and intestines were
| as normal as might he expected at
the autopsy of an individual suffering
from a febrile condition for a number
of days. Inspection revealed a
y corresponding absence of gross
lesions in the instance of the liver,
gg pancreas and generative organs.
I "The spleen and kidneys, however,
* disclosed evidence of severe strain as
might have been imposed by some
acute infection process in which
toemia was a consistant and aggravated
manifestation. Both spleen
and kidneys were greatly enlarged
and congested.
BBB "In order to definitely identify
- the poison, if any ingested poison
had resulted in the serious illness
BBIBfit and death of the four , members of
HHHK this family, specimens, consisting of
Rrt|P|| the stomach, a portion of the intesMHh
tine, a section of the liver, the spleen
and one of the kidneys, were placed
in sterile glass containers and shipUH
ped to a state institution for comliHuniB
plete chemical and pathological ex
SuHHhW animation.
"It is not possible under the oir'
cumstances to diagnose the cause of
death as none of the subjects were
seen during the course of the illness,
but it is certain that the internal
organs of the person examined at au.
topsy failed to show any of the marked
signs of injury and disruption
which would be expected had death
resulted from the ingestion of one
of the common poisons ordinarily encountered.

Detroit reelected Mayor James
Couzins, whose campaign was waged
on a platform calling for municipal
traction ownership, while Cleveland
gave Fred Kohler a substantial plurality
over Mayor William S. Fitzgerald,
Republican, and voted to
rhanffe to a citv manager plan of gov
ernment in 1924.
It was Kohler who, when dismissed
as chief of police by Newton D.
Baker, then mayor, told his friends
he would some day vindicate himself
by being elected head of the city
government. He conducted his campaign
without the backing of an organization
and without making a
speech. Cleveland is said to be the
largest city which has adopted the
city manager plan.
Republican mayors were elected in
Indianapolis and Cleveland.
