Father In Serious Condition
in Cook Hospital and
$ May Die.
Mrs. Unrlco Genovese died at
4 o'clock this morning at Cook
Hospital as a result ol inhaling
while. sleeping Sunday night a
large amonnt of carbon monoxide
gas. Tonla Oenovae, her Infant
daughter, was found dead when
neighbors entered thetf home late
yesterday afternoon, and her husband
Is a patient In Cook Hospital
still seriously 111, but attending
physicians believe that he will recover.
The tragedy ' was discovered '
last evening when Antonio Arcura
the next door neighbor of the
Genovese family, having seen no
sign of life around the house all
day yesterday, entered the house.
Arcurl found Mr. and Mrs. Genovese
and the Infant babe all In
bod. The child was dead and Mr.
and Mrs. Genovese unconscious.
a gas ore ana a ligat were burning
in the room. /
Physicians were called and Doctors
Offner, Kunst, Howard and
Causey responded; to the distress
call. Chief,Watkins of the Are
department was also called to
bring the city's pulmotor to try
to restore the parents of the child.
In a short time the doctors had
the' two older persons breathing,
and they were rushed to Cook
Hospital.
Upon \ arrival at the hospital
the doctors made a vain fight to
save the life of Mrs. Genovese,
buY as the hours slowly slipped by
It was seen that all their efforts
were to be in vain. Undaunted,
however, they worked until almost
morning, when the patient ceased
to breathe. While the fruitless
effort' was being made upon Mrs.
Genovese the doctors taking care
of hor husband were more successful
and unless something new
develops he will survive.
Improper combusltion and the
fact that the room was closed up
caused, the death of two and may
yet result fatally to the third
member of the family. The
obnoctious gas formed'by the bad
mixture filled the small room, the
puTe air in the room was soon
polutted and the. sleepers breathed,
the poisoned gas into their
lungs, causing them to lose consciousness.
The child was not strong enough
to survive the poisonous gas, and
it had, quietly died before Mr.
Arcuri entered the room. If the
reccuo had not been effected at
the time it. was. both Mr. and Mrs.
Genovese would have been dead
in another hour or ,so.
No funeral arrangements ha7e
been made as yet, and they will
j probably bo held, up until tomorrow,
pending developments.'In tho
I1 case of third member of the
{family. Yhe Oodles of MrB. Genoj
v^se and tho child were removed
!to the Cunhlnghom morgue and
(prepared for burial.

the writer to deliver it, dealing
with the water situation, follows:
"The state of health of 70ur
immediate subordinates are oh.
sentlal to the operation of your
industry, and it is therefore' your
duty to co-operate with your city
officials in pointing out a way to
make the conditions better. The
city official is usually a busy map,
and constantly under criticism,
yet he does the best that he can
in -your silence, whereas, if you
would turn to and assist him'
everyway; to get better homo conditions,
your employees would become
more valuable to you, if nis

"The water pure and usable.
Gentlemen here is an object wor.
thy of your attention. A better
water system, there seems to oe
considerable, contusion over the
water Issues, and there is a noc.
essity for your co-operation with
your government officials In that
the water problem may bo solved.
I will add my versions on this subject,.
and I base them upon tnu
actual contact that I have haa
heretofore in many parts-^if the
world. It appeals to me,that win
a city?of the size of Fairmont, there
should be an adequate sup.
ply of good water in every maus
home. The great question that
confronts you all,, and the other
citizens of the community, is tho
financing-of such a project that
will never satisfactorily,' and It
seems that you all should profit
by the past experience of other
municipalities who have been ail.
venturesome, I think that you will
find after careful investigation
that they have, after considerable
expenditures, called the filtration
system a failure, and whereever
thore were streams of pure nat.
ural water, they have gone many
miles to bring that water Into the
city. For instance New York,City,
having two very large rivers
where pumping plants could be'ln.
stalled, and in fact In the earlier
days wore the only supply that
tho city bad. They got away from
the river water, because the ex.
pensive filtration systems kept
them .broke, and still their water
condition was not good. They <
bondod the city water system and
spent several millions of dollars
went way back Into the mountains
built huge dams and reservoirs,
making enormous lakes, and In.
