CONDITION OF Mrs. VANDERBILT Mrs.
0. w. Vanderlip, who was so murderousIy
assaulted by the Chinaman Tom yesterday,
is able to be about to-day and attend to
the duties of her house, though she did not
sleep at all during last night, owing to the
state of excitement under which she was
still iaboring. The impression of the MUIR
derous hands upon her throat was so
great that the blood was arrested in its
passage to the head, and to-day red spots
or patches are visible all over her face
where the blood has settled, her eyes are
bloodshot, and bruises are visible upon her
throat. During the struggle Mrs. Wander
lip retained her presence of mind, and
says that her thoughts travelled faster than
ever before. She knew by the wild eyes
of the Chinaman that he meant death
when he said "Pll kill you," and although
prevented from screaming by the immense
pressure upon her throat, and despite the
fact that she was fast losing her strength,
she fought hard to keep him away from
where he had thrown the knife. Mrs.
Vanderlip is still very nervous, but is
gradually rallying from the terrible physi-
cal and mental strain to which she was
subjected. Il Vallejo Chronicle, April 18th.
