FOUND DYING ON THE STREET
Hospital Surgeons Fail to Save
Charles Donohue's Life

Stomach trouble is the cause given at
the Emergency Hospital for the death there
at 11:50 o'clock last night Of Charles Dono-
hue, a bricklayer, forty years of age. The
body of the man is now lying in the morgue
at the hospital where it will be viewed this
morning by Coroner Carr. The circum-
stances surrounding the death of the man,
while not suspicious, are peculiar. and will
be investigated. Donohue was found in H
Street, near the corner of Thirteenth
Street northwest, about 5:45 o'clock yes
terday afternoon. The man was weak and
in an almost unconscious condition. He
was removed to the rear yard of 1901 II
Street and placed in a hammock until the
arrival of the patrol wagon of the First
precinct. He was then removed to the hos
pital
At the institution Donohue was able to
tell nothing about himself except his name,
occupation, age and that he lived in Thir-
teenth Street between G and H Streets
northwest. He was poorly dressed and
had the appearance of tramp, or one who
had been roughing it. When he arrive
az the hospital he was in dying condi-
tion, but rallied for a while under treat
ment. Later he suffered q relapse, and
died in delirious condition. All efforts to
locate the home of the man proved futile.
His name does not appear in the directory,
and he is not known in the neighborhood
in which he claimed to live. Coroner Carr
will decide today whether an inquest is
necessary. In the event that the body is
not claimed for burial ii will be inferred
at the expense of the District in potter
field

ACCUSED OF STEALING.
Three Navy-yard Fire Extinguishers
Found in Possession of BOYS.

Three Navyyard Fire Extinguishers
Found in Possession of Boys.
Two white boys, each about Is years
Old. were locked up in the police station
yesterday afternoon on the charge of
stealing three fire eXtinguishers from
the navy-yard. Captain Jack Law
renee. one of the navy-yard watchmen,
saw the boys and notified the captain
on duty ut the gate, who in turn noti-
fled the police department. and Captain
lyman set about capturing them.
He was informed that they were in a
boat, so he sent Officer John Whitehurst
10 the Cat Hole, on Crawford street to
watch for their coming. They soon put
in an appearance, landing and wend-
ing their way to Il junk shop. when
Captain lyman and Officer Whitehurst
took them in custody with the extin-
quishcrs III their possession.
The boys say that they found the ar
ticics floating in the river and that at
no time during the day were they in
the yard. They say they went out in a.
boat and saw the cXtingushers and
pulled them in their boat and came to
the city. They also said they saw the
Waterman and the watchman saw
them. but if he said anything TO them
about not taking the extinguishcrs.
which are old and of no value in APP
pearancc. they failed to hear him. They
were quite calm last night and repu-
dated the suggestion that they stole.
