Now York, Oct. 27.—Frenzied by tho -thought tlint she is r**sp mslble for the death of her two babes, who were suffocated during the night while sleeping with her. Mrs. John McElroy is today prostrated with grief. No blame is attached to tho woman, hut her own remorse Is worse than any punishment that could be inflicted upon her.
