Something Of sensation was caused in this
city yesterday by a rumor that one Of our
best known citizens was about to publish a
statement concerning some unusual expert
ences during his residence in Syracuse. How
the rumor originated it is impossible to say
but a reporter Immediately sought Doctor s.
G. Martin, the gentleman in question, and Sc
cured the following interview:
"What about this rumor, Doctor, that you
are going to make public statement of some
important mattersN
"Just about the same as you will find In all
rumors-some truth; some fiction. had

remarkable episodes that have occurred in
my life, but have not completed it as yet

"Not common! On the contrary, it is one

The statement drawn out by the above
interview is amply confirmed by very many
of our most prominent citizens, among

Goodrich, of the Times, while General
Dwight H. Bruce and Rev. Professor W.

heartiest endorsement. In this age of Won
