to Have Been Made by
q Thief

SAN JOSE, CAL, Oct. 24-J. w. Wal
thaIl, who was stabbed while in the base
ment of his residence last night, will
probably be around again on Monday, as
the wound is not serious. In speaking of
Mr.. Waithalt's injury, DR.. J. S. Potts, who
is the attending surgeon, said to-day:
1.-THE point of the knife struck the
seventh rib on the left SIDE then glanced
downward about an inch and struck the
eighth rib. If the knife had not struck a
rib it would have penetrated the heart.
The blow must have had great force, as
the knife went through a thick vest and
the end of necktie, a white shirt and a
heavy undergarment, and then made a
wound an inch in length. The wound
bled very freely, but it is superficial, and
the injured man Will be out again in few
days"
In regard to his assaiant Mr.. Walthali
is of the opinion that the attempted
murder was the work of thief who feared
that he was in danger OF being captured.
The police have failed to locate the robber
and Walthall can give no description of
him.
