Turned on the Gas.

On Monday night a man giving his name
as Wait Arnold applied for lodgings at the
Grand, and was shown to a room. The
guest seemed to be a foreigner. speaking
with strong French accent, and OH leav-
ing him the porter asked if he understood
about the gas, and the man replied, "Oh
yes, you shut him off,"
Yesterday morning the odor OF escaping
gas was detected coming from Arnold's
room, and as he made Ro reply to the rap
ping and calling of those outside, the door
was broken in, and the man found in an
insensible condition. The light was out,
but the gas escaping, which indicates that
after shutting 1t off he had turned it on
again. Last evening he was still unable to
speak, and the doctors considered it doubt
full whether he would recover.
