A NARROW ESCAPE.
BEHRENS is NEARLY
ASPHYXlATED.
NO CAUSE KNOWN FOR AFFAIR.
Found in an Unconscious Condition With
the Windows Closed and The
Gas Turned on in Full
Force.


Richard Behrens, young man q
years of age, had narrow escape from
asphyxiation at the Schlitz hotel
Thursday night.
When the maids went to his room
this morning they found him lying on
the bed with his clothes on, in an un-
conscious condition and the room filed
with gas. When the door was opened
the heavy breathing of the man to-
gether with the odor of escaping gas
terrified the girl and she at once mott
fed the managers of the hotel. Going
to the room they found the young man
and placing him in chair attempted
to revive him by working his arms and
pouring water on his face.
When all these attempts proved in
vain Drs. Kimball and Andre were
summoned and they at once began a
fight for his life against heavy odds.
The man was, to all appearances, be-
yond any medical help. His breath
came in gasps and green fluid, caused
by union of the gases of the stomach
and Illuminating gas, issued from his
mouth and covered the floor about
him. The doctors worked his arms
and gave Il hypodermic injec-
tons of ammonia for over an
hour when they finally saw some
signs of returning consciousness. An
other hours work and the unfortunate
man was out of danger. When the
managers of the hotel were asked as to
the causes of the affair they could give
no reason for the rash deed unless 1t
was a case Of attempted suicide.
Young Behrens has been boarder at
the hotel for more than three months
and is said to have peen rather regular
in his habits. He was accustomed to
retire very early at night, but Friday
night none of the attendants of the ho
tel saw him in. He had formerly been
employed at the tannery, where he as
sisted in unloading the vessels Of bark.
For the last two weeks he has been
out of employment, 1uU as he always
seemed TO have plenty Of money the
hotel people thought nothing of his
actions
The hotel men all urge the theory of
attempted suicide, claiming that there
was no possible way for the gas to have
been turned on except by Behrens
own hand. Some years ago an acct
dent of this sort occurred in the house
and since that time the whole house
has been fitted with electric lights.
The suicide theory is urged also from
the fact that the windows Of the room
were all closed tightly, as was also the
transom of the room.
The gas must have been turned on
early this morning, as the man would
surely have been dead if the Jet had
been open during the entire night. On
the other hand, the managers think
that it might have been an accident
caused by the Young fellow throwing
his gloves on the table, in this manner
turning the cock attached TO the gas
fixture.
After regaining consciousness Behr-
ems is reported to have told one of his
friends that be had been reading late
Thursday night, and when the electric
light went out he lit the gas and con-
tinued reading. Later he fell asleep
and in some manner the gas was blown
out during the night. He is considered
out Of danger.
