“Sudden Deaths. A strange case that is being rigidly investigated at Struthers. Coroner Tucker called to examine the remains of an employee at the Struthers Furnace.
“The sudden deaths in precisely the same manner, and no apparent reason therefore, have occurred within six months at Struthers. Last fall, a foreigner employed at the blast furnace in Struthers left his fellow workmen and entered a closet nearby. In a few moments, a companion discovered his dead body.
“Friday afternoon word was received in this city that a Slavonian laborer had been killed at the Struthers Furnace, and Coroner Tucker and Gillen’s Ambulance responded. Upon arriving at the furnace, the coroner learned that Joseph Needlect, a Slavonian, who had been employed in unloading coal cars, and just as the other man had done, six months before, left the car and entered a closet.
