summoned. The latter found DR.. Dear
born's wounds to consist of three small
stabs near the region of the heart, and a
lump over the right eye. which was un-
doubtedly made by heavy. blunt instru-
ment.
DR.. Dearborn is II years Of age, and
though his wounds are considered danger
Gus because of the shock their infection
must have rendered his enfeebled consti-
tuition, they are not considered necessarily
fatal, and but for the long time the
wounded man spent in the night air. par
TALLY unconscious, his condition is not con-
sidered dangerous. The same wounds in
hicted upon young man would be consid-
cred Of no consequence whatever.
The police were notified of the assault
on DR.. Dearborn shortly after he was
found. and several detectives were detailed
on the case. Beyond the finding by John
Moore, of 9l9 Brooklyn avenue, OF the
knife with which the wounds were in
fiicted, about O'Clock. In the alley. there
is absolutely no clue whatever to the
identity Of the would-be assassin or assas-
sins. The knife that the stab wounds were
made with is a new affair. with three
inch blade sharpened like a razor. and the
police believe they will be able by ample
Investigation, to locate where and by whom
it was purchased.

meeting about 1890, and walked east on

When Dr. Van Scoyoc called at the Dear
born home last evening he found Dr. Dear
born in a much improved condition, with a
tendency to a much clearer understanding
of what transpired about him. He would
permit. however. of nothing regarding the
assault being said to the semi-unconscious
man. and there are no new developments
In the case whatever. During DR.. Van
Scoyoc's visit the doctor revived sufficient

man. a reiteration of his statement in the
morning just after he was found.
Contrary to the statement made in an
evening paper that the Dearborn family
has some idea of the identity of DR.. Dear

at the residence last evening that there
are no grounds whatever for such a state
