A CASE THAT EXClTES SUSPICION.
The Strange Circumstances Surrounding the
Injury of Mathew Gamer Week Ago.

A week ago three-lne item in the newspapers
stated that Mathew Gamer had fallen down a
stairway, at the lodging-house of Sarah Dun
meyer, No. 2l7 South Illinois street and had
been slightly injured. Mr.. Gamer is now in a
critical condition, and yesterday a Journal re-
porter learned that there were some very mys-
ferrous things connected with the affair. Mr.
Gamer is twentyse years of age, and came
from Louisville to this city about ten years ago.
He has been employed in the paper-mill most of
the time for che past eight years. and has been a
sober, steady man. He boarded at the Illinois
House on South Illinois street, aud lodged at
Mrs. Dunmeyer's. Miss Ella Miller residing at
No 673 West Vermont street, who for some
time had received rather devoted attentions
from Gamer, learned that he had been injured,
and went to Mrs. Dunmeyer's house to see him.
She was met at the door by a servant, who told
her that she could not see Mr.. Gamer, as they
were allowing no one to go in the room, Mon
day evening Miss Miller returned with gentle
man friend, and after almost forcing their way
into the room, found Mr.. Gamer in an almost
dying condition. On his forehead was a deep
cut, and back Of his right ear another. He
was insensible, and the keeper of the house. Miss
Miller says admitted that he had received
no attention since she locked him in the room
the CAV previous, except at one time when she
called in a physician, though his name she didn't
remember Miss Miller took the injured man to
her home, where a Journal reporter saw him
yesterday. He is still insensible, and during the
entire week recognized no one but a brother
who came from Louisville. Dr.s Marsee is at
tending him, and thinks with careful attention
he may recover.
The two wounds on the head arc ugly ones.
and las there is not another bruise on his body.
the story that he received his injuries by falling
down stairs is doubted.
