TERRIBLE TRAGEDIES IN NEW YORK.
New York, September 6. Eight men and women have died during the last three days from drinking wood alcohol whiskey, all bought from the same surreptitous seller, who is believed to be a woman and the owner of a small restaurant. A number of persons have gone blind and others seriously ill. The police believe the death list will grow, since a great quantity of poisoned liquor has been distributed from one source in Milwaukee. September 8, 1922. Would you have these awful tragedies a common occurrence in New Zealand? Or would you have a wholesome liquor trade openly and cleanly conducted?. Vote Continuance. 61.
