From Injuries Inflicted While
He Lay in Bed.
MOTIVE FOR CRIME UNKNOWN.
Chief Detective Does Not Think II Was
Robbcry--Stili the Man
Was Robbed.

pittsburg, Dec 3O.--W. $. Morton, 2s
years Of age, OF Cleveland. prominent
real estate broker, Is dying In the no.
meopathic hospital here from injuries
inflicted early this morning while he
lay in bed In his room at the Annex
hotel. A sum OF money, gold watch
and a number OF valuable papers are
missing, as are also Morton's trousers
and vest.
Capt. of Detectives Egan said to-
night that, while Morton was robbed,
he Is inclined TO believe that robbery
did not actuate the crime, but that
some important business deal was at
the bottom OF the attack. Among the
yaluables stolen are two bank books
showing deposit Of $1,000 In the
Cleveland National bank and $1,000 in
the Cleveland Trust company.
Morton was unconscious the greater
part OF the time, but in lucid moments
gasped a few words. From what has
already been learned, Morton made the
acquaintance several days ago Of a
young man In the hotel. Last Saturday
night he spent the evening In Allie
gheny, across the river from here. with
this man. He says that early this
morning he was awakened by some one
entering the room, but before he could
rise from the bed was struck in the
face with a pair of knuckles. Then, he
says, his assaiant struck him with
Hack Jack, and he lost consciousness.
The bed was covered with blood, and
the police found the two weapons In
Morton's suit case. The assailant APP
parently washed his hands In the bath
tub, as this was also bloodstained.
Young Morton came here from New
York, Dec. Q, and registered as wv

President Roosevelt showed his
level headedness again when he
respectfully declined assistance from
foreign countries for the sufferers In
the San Francisco disaster. The
United States Is big and broad enough
to meet a crisis Of this sort without
outside assistance, and 1t Is good
policy to avoid placing ourselves
under obligations to other nations
for In case OF trouble with them we
would be expected to return the
compliment multiplied by ten. IL
we are not beholden to them, then we
may extend such aid as we see At and
feel able to do. Besides this, there
is nothing that tends to broaden ana
loosen up people like charitable
acts. The United States as whole
will be none the poorer for the San
Francisco calamity.
