HEARS BROTHERS CRY.

Mrs Goldberg's custom is to await the
homecoming Of her brother. She was sit
ting i'll the kitchen, when she heard
noise, and Immediately afterwards loud
cry from her brother. She threw open
the kitchen door and rushed out into
the dark alley. She had just called to
him when shot was fred and she saw
tall man leave the alley and run out
into Fifth avenue. She ran to her bro
ther, who was still lying on the pavement,
and assisted him into the house. he was
somewhat dazed from the blow, and blood
was streaming down his face. At first
she thought Perboner had been shot, but
an examination showed that his only in
jury was deep scalp wound, which
physician was called to dress
The police believe the robbery was de-
liberately planned. At 1890, the hour
when Perboner usually returns home, a
neighbor living at 500 Union street entered
his home through the alley. He encoun-
tered a tall man, who brushed against
him but did not offer TO attack him.
Police Sergeant Stuart and Patrolman
Hadeen were on the spot a few seconds
after the shot was fired, but the highway
man was nowhere to be found. They
found two umbrellas in the alley, which
leads TO the belief that there were two
men concerned, although neither the
neighbOr nor Perboner saw more than
one man, and both give the same descrip-
ton Of the one Yesterday morning De
tectiye Sam Corbett made another inves
tigation, but nothing new was developed
