NEW YORK CRY, n. Y.
What was supposed to have been ami
ordinary case of suicide by asphyxia-:
ton may develop into murder, in thel
case of Alfred Krattinger, an expert
accountant, who was found dead>in his
room at 436 West Fifty-sixth street.
Coroner Scholer was about to give
certificate, when it was discovered that
the transom was open, the doorkey bro
ken and window unlocked-unusuaI
circumstances in such cases. A further
right ear. A diamond pin worth $IIoo
was missing, as well as wallet, usually
well filled. The mans face was not dis
colored, as would have been the case in
death by gas. There was so little smell
of gas that a theory is offered that some
murderer for robbery turned on the gas
to hide his crime
In agony, screaming for help, while
pedestrians crossing the Brooklyn bridge
looked and laughed, Winfield Pendleton,
impaled on spike at the top of an eight
foot fence which runs along the south
roadway, wriggled helplessly until Po-
liceman James Farron of the bridge
squad came to his assistance and lifted
him from the spike. Pendleton, who is
laborer, lives at Coney Island. He
started to cross the bridge at the south
roadway. Discovering that he was not
on the promenade, he climbed the spike
fence dividing the tracks of the trolley
and expected to climb up to the prom
enade. In some manner he slipped, and
the point of one of the spikes entered
his abdomen. He is seriously, but not
fatally, injured.
Charles Miller, an animal trainer at
the Bostock show at Coney Island, after
fight for an hour, was forced to ADAM
don an attempt to put Tammany, full
grown Bengal tiger, through his PAGES.
When the tiger was driven into the
arena he jumped at the trainer, who met
the animal with a fusillade of blank
cartridges. Maddened by the smarting
powder, the tiger again sprang at Mil
Ter, who this time met the attack with
a heavy iron bar. Hardly sound came
from the crowd of spectators when the
trainer made last aattempt to force
the animal to its pedestal. Again he
failed, after which he was persuaded to
drive the tiger from the arena.
Suffering from lack of food, Miss
Eleanor Howard dropped fainting in
front of the Hotel Aston. She had walk
ed five miles in vain search for friends
of her childhood to invoke their aid
Two women in evening gowns rushed
to her aid as she sank to the pave
ment. Their escorts helped Policeman
O'Neill to carry the unconscious girl to
the Long Acre Pharmacy, block away.
There she was revived by DR.. Brown of
Roosevelt Hospital, who came in re-
Spouse to hurry call.

A vivid dream in which Mrs William
Clarity of SIS Humboldt Street, Brook
lyn, saw her I5-year-old son mangled by
car was proved true, when the mother
learned that he had been killed by a
train in Pennsylvania on May IL The
boy, William Garrity, Jr., ran away from
home on May 4 to follow circus. At
ter her boys disappearance Mrs. Garrity
had vivid dreams about him. y,
She had vision Saturday that her
boy had fallen under the wheels of a
train. The vividness of the dream fast
ened itself upon her so that the next day
she again called on the police and begged
them to make inquiries regarding the boy.
That evening she was visited by
stranger, who said he was circus man,
who gave her the news.
A mob on Clinton Street caused the
death of little girl while trying to get

lowed sever persons were badly hurt.
