JERSEY IS MORE JUST
An Escaped New York Lunatie
Applied to the Hoboken
Police for Protection.

A man poorly clad. and looking as
though he had undergone considerable
suffering. walked into the Hoboken Po-
lice Headquarters Saturday night. and
after telling Captain Hayes that his
name was Gottfried Bahler and his resi-
denee Watertown, n. Y, related the fol-
lowing story
Zone day last summer I assaulted a
man in the Remington Paper Works at
Watertown where we both were en-
ployed. 1 was arrested and tried. and
found guilty. The District Attorney said
I was insane and had me placed in the
Ogdensberg Lunatic Asylum on Septem-
Der Is. Well. I was no more insane then
than I am now, and I'm sure I'm as
rational as any sane man, and several
of the worIzmen in the asylum thought
SO to. for last Tuesday two of them came
to me and gave me some money and
helped me to escape.
after leaving the institution, I made
directly for Canada, and then went to
Watertown, but did not go home, as I
heard that the police were looking for
me, but came Immediately to New York.
I was born in Switzerland. fourty-four
years ago, and came to America when I
was twenty-four years old, and after 1
was here six years, l became natural-
ized. But l did not think that made any
difference as long as l was born in
Switzerland, so l went to the Swiss Con-
sui in New York and asked him if he
could do anything for me. He told me
no. not as long as / was an American
citizen, but he said that If 1 came to
New Jersey would get more justice. So
came here Captain, to surrender my
self and be locked up.
Il want to be examined by your public
doctors as to my sanity I'm willing
to serve a term in prison for assaulting
that man, but I don't want to be con-
knows when I'd ever get out of there,
and besides if l had remained there
much longer 1 think 1 would be insane
anyway
Captain Hayes told him that he acted
like a sane enough man, and ordered
him locked up.
DR.. Simon examined Bahler this morn-
ing and declared that he was out of his
head. The Doctor said that the man was
under the delusion that people wanted to
kill him or get him out of the way, SO
that he could not patent certain pro-
cess he had for the manufacture OK
He is a we'll educated man." the
Doctor continued, and is in full pos
session of all his senses, and is as smart
as a whistle on some things, but there
is no denying the fact that he is de-
lusion that some one is going to kill
him, and he hears voices warning him
all the time"
Chief Donovan telegraphed to the Og-
densburg Lunatic Asylum yesterday,
and told Warden Wise that Bahler was
Warden Wise replied that he would send
for RahleT tO0aV.

RALEIGH's HOUSE SOLD.
Sir Henry Blake, the Governor of
Jamaica, Is the Purchaser.

Sir Walter Raleigh's house at Youghai,
in Ireland which it was proposed at one
time to convey pieeemeal to this coun-
try for erection in the grounds of the
Chicago Exposition, has been purchased
by Sir Henry Blake, the Governor OF
Jamaica, who intends to make it his home
when he retires from colonial service
few years hence Sir Henry is not pre-
cisely beloved in the country where he
has thus acquired a residence, for as
Police MAGISTRATE in old coercion days
he achieved so great a reputation Tor
hashness and severity in Ireland that IT
was found advisable to find another
sphere fer his usefulness in the colonies.
He would not have received his pres
ent comfortable billet with it's salary
of $50 900 a year besides allowances, mad
it not been that he happened to be
brother-in-1aw of the Duke of ST. AL
bans, have married the younger sister
of the Duchess. Lady Blake and the
Duchess are daughters of the famous
wit and diner-out, Bernal Osborne. Sir
Henry was nominated for the Governor
ship of Victoria, but the large irish
population in Australia raised such
howl of indignation at the appointment
that it was Cancelled, and he was sent
to Jamaica instead. He benefited by the
change, for Jamaica is much nearer to
England than Australia, and besides he
has somewhere in Victoria a ne'er-do
well son by his first marriage, who dis
graced himself This would have been
awkward had he become Governor of
Australia.-Chicago Record

THE OINoINNATTs DAMAGE
struck Sunken VesscI-Eight Weeks
for Repairs,


WASHINGTON, Nov. 10, 1S94.-Acting
Secretary of the Navy McAdoo this
morning received a full report from
Captain Henry Glass of the accident
to the Cincinnati, as well as a prelim-
mary telegraphic statement of the New
York Navy Yard, as to the amount and
character of the damage to the ship,
as shown by inspecting her in the dry
that the Cincinnati probably struck
some sunken vessel and not a rock as
was at first supposed. The commandant
estimates that it will take at least six
weeks to repair the vessel, as number
of plates are bent and the frames under
the boilers. where they are exceedingly
difficult to approach, are badly distorted.
The experts declare that if the vessel
had struck rock the vessel would have
gone down. That the obstruction was
a movable one is shown by the fact that
the hull astern, where the ships draft
is greatest was uninjured, indicating that
the obstruction was forced aside after
causing the damage
About foot was knocked off the pro-
pellor blade of the Cincinnati.
Acting Secretary McAdoo expects to
have a complete report of the damage
later in the week and a court of inquiry
responsibility for the occurrence. If, as
expected, 1T can be proved that the Gin
cinnati struck temporary obstruction
instead of rock chown on the charts,
her officers will probably be exonerated
of all blame.

sTARTFoRDs GET A NEW TRIAL
supreme Court Sets Aside the Regan
Verdict.

Some time ago the heirs of Michael
Regan obtained judgment in the Hud-
son Circuit Court against the Stratford
Oakum Company for $4,000. Regan was
employed in the oakum factory and
placed parafine on the oakum to keep 1t
from sticking to the machinery. Thls
machinery consisted of two large re-
volving cylinders full of long heavy
spikes which caught the oalSum and tore
it into shreds. Regan was putting the
parafine on the oakum while it was pass
ing over these rapidly revolving cylin-
ders when he was caught on the spikes
and literally torn to shreds himself.
The company claimed that he had
been implicitly ordered to put
the parafine on the oakum when 1t was
at rest on a table and never when 1T
was going through the rapidly revolv-
ing cylinders. The jury gave. the heirs
a verdict, but ex-senator Brinkerhon for
the company, took the case to the SUI
preme Court on rule to show cause
why a new trial should not be granted.
The Supreme Court has just made the
rule absolute and granted new trial de
nOVO.
