Sent to Paris for Treatment.

NEWARK, December 1O.-A mad dog run
ming through the streets OF the Fifth Ward
Yesterday bit six of a crowd OF school chill
dren in McWhorter street. Before the ami
NAL was killed about thirty other dogs
were also bitten. The children are: Will
liam Lane, aged 12; Hattie French, aged
10; George c. Hules, aged g.; Austin Fitz-
gerald, aged 8; James Reynolds, aged 10,
and Austin Reynolds. aged 5. Their wounds
were cauterized by physicians.
The Chief Of Police ordered all the dogs
supposed to have been bitten killed. and
two police officers poisoned thirty this
afternoon with stIychnine.
DR.. William O'Gt rman at once interested
himself in the unfortunate children, whose
parents are all poor. He published an ap-
peal to the people OF Newark this after
noon. He referred to Pasteur's discovery
OF mitigated hydrophobia virus, and said:

sion and to the humane OF all class to help
to send the poor children where there is
almost certainty OF prevention and
cure
The appeal at once aroused much inter
est and over 500 was Immediately sub
scribed by prominent citizens. DR.. O'Gor-
man at once cabled to Pasteur: "Threc

TO reporter DR.. 0 German said that he
expected to send the children to Paris by
the French Line Of steamers from New
York on Wednesday. He estimates the
cost OF trip at $1,000. The children, ne
says, can be cared for in Partisan hospitals
free OF cost. A meeting OF the medical pro-
fession ofNewark will be held and measures
adopted to raise funds.
A secret society for the determination OF
dogs was formed this evening, and If the
Mayor does not order all dogs found rum
ming at large without muzzles to be shot,
they will be poisoned.

WITH POISON AND PISTOL.
Conclusive Evidence that Charles n. Ray
Premeditated Murder and Suicide.

New YORK. December 1O.-The autopsy
held yesterday on the body OF Charles N.
Ray, who shot himself and attempted to
kill his wife at No. 1908 Madison avenue,
develops the fact that Ray, previous to the
shooting, drank glass OF water in which
was a portion of the contents OF a sixty grain
vial OF strychnine. He attempted to have
his wife drink the other portion, but she
refused. There was theory that when
wrested the pistol from him and shot him,
but the latter development proves that he
did the shooting. He was impelled to the
act by intense jealousy. The reports of
a. private detective engaged by Ray to
shadow his vile were found in his pockets.
Some of these were so saturated with blood
as to be almost ineligible.
In her supplementary statement to Cor
oner Messemer, Mrs. Ray says that when
Ray came into their room a little before 6
o'clock he shook one the detectives reports
in her face and seized her by the throat,
when she gave the first scream that was
heard. He then proposed to her the choice
between death by poison or the pistol. She
ton, and he shot her, and then shot him.
self. He died almost instantly. She had
strength enough left to unlock the door and
scream for help.
Mrs. Malvina F. Hayden, Rays mother,
testified before the Coroner yesterday that
she had never known of any unhappiness
between Ray and his wife. Mrs. Ray will
probably recover.
The bullet was probed for yesterday and
found in the upper jaw, about one-half
inch in front of the left ear. 1t passed
along the left cheek bone. Drs. Richard
soc. Helmuth Raynor and Fulton were in
attendance. The ball will be extracted to-
day. Mrs. Ray converses freely. Mrs.
Guibert and Mr.. Charles Halliday, her
brother and sister, were in attendance, as
was Mrs. Malvina Hayden, her mother-in-
law, who has not left the injured woman's
bedside since directly after the shooting.
Mrs. Hayden said she had only the kindest
feelings for her sons wife. Mrs. Ray re-
mains in the room where she was shot.

eral Thousand Dollars, Booty.

FREEDOM, Pa, December 1O.-At 3
o'clock this morning the citizens OF this
place were startled by a loud explosion.
Several rushed out on the ~streets
to ascertain the cause. William Bash

ONE men running out OF the building. He
shouted an alarm and ran after them.
The fleeing burglars turned and fired
several shots at him, none
of which took effect. Bashore,
being nnarmed, turned about and ran to
his home. An investigation led to the dis
covery that the four doors to the immense
safe in the bank had been blown from their
fastenings, and that between $1,000 and
$4,000 in cash and 81 $50 in Government
bonds were missing.
A number of valuable papers and notes
were partially destroyed by the explosion.
