4 MURDERoUs ASSAULT

Upon Mir. n, s. Cooper, the Veteran Gro
 oery Merchant, by Throo Highwaymen-
 MT. Cooper Resting Quietly Last Night,
 MT, D. s, Cooper, the State street grocer, one of New Haven's oldest mer- chants, who was so outrageously as- saulted Saturday evening by three ruff fans near his home on Lyon street, was resting quietly yesterday and though considerably prostrated and weakened by the shock and the blows he received, his physician, Dr. c. Purdy LAndsley, sai1 last night that he would probably be laid up for @ week or more. MT. Cooper was attacked by the rufiians while on his way from the store and knocked down. The three men sud- denly sprang out from behind some piles of lumber in front of the neM house which MT M, Steinert is erecting, and made q simultaneous attack upon him. Two of the men pounded him over the head with blunt instruments while the third held his hand over his mouth until he was almost choked to death, MT. Cooper fell because of the shower of blows which were rained upon him and then the men went through his pockets, but obtained only a knife and a few small articles. MT. Cooper had no money. He had left it in his safe in his store. When the men left him MT. Cooper, although dazed and bleeding, managed to get to his home.
 His family were much frightened at his appearance and summoned, in the neighbors, some of whom notified tho police and another went for Dr. c. Purdy Lindsley. When the doctor ar rived he found a scalp wound on MT. Cooper's head, which had been made with some blunt instrument. He dressed the wounds.
 The highwaymen were evidently so disappointed at finding nothing of value but a knife that they threw that away, for the police found it on the sidewalk. Mr. Cooper's head was cut in nine diff ferent places.
 The men had evidently laid in wait for MT. Cooper, for the police of the Grand avenue station say that the gas light in front of the unfinished build ing on the corner of Olive and Lyon streets has been extinguished myster- iously for the past threenights at about the same hour, and they have probably been scared off before MT. Cooper came past.
