RIBS BROKEN IN THE ASYLUM.
Italian Patient In Manhattan Stale Hospital
Dies With Eight Fractured.

Cornelio Colegero, an Italian, who wa S
an American citizen and had been a resi-
lent Of this city many years, died yester-
day in the Manhattan State Hospital for
the Insane on Wards Island Of injuries
which Coroner Julius Hamburger suspect 8
may have been caused by a bruta attendant.
The Coroner will begin an investigation
Of the case to-day after his physician, DR..
O'Hanlon, makes an autopsy.
DR.. H. c. Evarts, acting superintendent
of the hospital, sent a report of the death
to Coroner Hamburger last night, in which
it was said that Colegero had succumbed
to general para lysis OF the insane, Gdema,
acute nephritis. empyema and fractured
ribs" Reduced to he verna cular this means
that besides fractured ribs the Italian
had dropsy, Inflammation of the kidneys
end a disease of the cavity of the pleura.
What excited the suspicion of the Coroner
was the declaration in the report of Or,
Evarts that on March 20 the patient was
pushed down several steps of a fire escape
by another patient, and that later in the
day il was discovered that his eighth,
ninth, tenth and eleventh ribs m the right
side had been fractured. The patient was
taken to the hospital ward and put to bed
and the next day the seventh, eighth, ninth
and tenth ribs on the left side we're found
fractured.
DR.. Philip Smith. the surgeon who at
tended Colegero in the hospital, also turned
in a report to the Coroner. DR., Smith
said that the patient had died of pulmonary
9dema,' and that he had been admitted
to the hospital on December 20, 1904. He
was then ~ years old and left a wife at
44e East Houston street. Thu report that
DR.. Evarts got from the keepers who take
the patients out WAS that on March %
while Colegero was out walking she was
struck by another patient and thrown
down. He continued walking and made
no complaint" This incident is supposed
to have a accounted for broken ribs discovered
the day after he was a legged to have been
pushedd dow several steps Of a fire escape
by another patient.
In his letter to the Coroner DR.. Evarts
says Colegero was @excitable and quarrel
some and would assault other patients
without fear or warning" The Coroner
thinks this a strange description in view
Of the fact that the doctor declares the
Italian was the victim Of two assaults by
other patients, DIR. Evarts also describes
the Italians disease as rendering him in
sensible to pain" and says that 1T was
neceesarily fatal"

REQUEST TO ADMIRAL CONVERSE.
President Wants Him to he Chief OF Bureau
OF Navigation After He Retires.

WARRINGTON. April 7.-Oficial announce
ment will soon be made that the President
has decided to request Rear Admiral George
A.. Converse, Chief OF the Bureau Of Navi-
CATION, to continue in charge Of this i'm
portant bureau after his retirement for
age on May 10 next, when he will reach
the statutory age Of 90 years. His re-
appointment will be generally approved
throughout the ~ssrvioe. for his impartial
administration Of this bureau since he
assumed its charge in August, 1904, has
brought about not only most harmonious
relations between the bureau and the feet,
but has introduced harmony into the bureau
system Of the Department.
After relinguishing command Of the
battleshlp Illinois in 1903. Admiral Con-
verse was appointed chief of the bureau
of equipment. A few months later he was
called to the bureau Of ordnance, where he
~reorganized the entire bureau and began

has resulted in the placing Of American
naval ordnance on lite present high plane.
Within a year he was ordered to the bureau
Of navigation as chief of that bureau, to
take up the work of the late Real Admiral
Henry G. Taylor,
AS Admiral Converse Is not in very ro-
bust health, it is probable that Secretary
Bona part will insist that he take r. months
rest this spring, hat ne may return TO the
bureau with renewed strength.

HOLDUP on WEST STREET.
Victim Fought and He and Policeman Capt
ured Both Assailants.

Patrick Reilly. 10 years old. who says
he has been in this city only a short while,
caused the arrest last night Of William
Heating. 20 years old, Of 12a West street.
and John O'Neill, 10 years old, Of 1le West
street, who, he sa d, attempted to rob him
on the corner OF North Moore and Vast
streets.
Reilly is employed on the Fall River Line
steamers. He boards in a hotel on North
Moore street when he is in the city. Last
night he asked Heating the nearest way
of getting to a number on West street and
Heating pointed III the way. But just as
he turned his back. he says, he received a
singing blow in the face from Keating's.
fist, which dazed hin for a few minutes.
O'Neill then ran III and caught him by the
throat. Both young men, Reilly alleges.
started to go through his pockets.
When Reilly recovered his bearings he
started to beat Heating and 0'Nein OF.
calling for help at the same time. A police
man from the Leonard street station ran
to his aid. When Heating and O'Eeill saw
the policeman coming they started to run.
but Reilly still had strength enough to hold
on to Reating. The policeman chased
O'Neill and caught him after he had gone
a block,
The two prisoners we're taken to the
station house, and were positively identified
by Reilly as his assailants. When they
were searched two large ~jackknives were
found on them. ..

URGES 4 CURRENCY COMMISSION.
President Hamilton OF American Bankers
Has Sch eme for an Elastic Currency.

ATLANTA, April John L Hamilton.
president Of the American Bankers Afso-
citation, who is in Atlanta on business, op.
poses Secretary Shaw's plan for emer-
gency circulation in the crop moving period.
Secretary Shaw's proposed remedy"
said Mr.. Hamilton, while it has certain
advisable features, is not, | think, the surest
or most practical that can be found.
"The emergency currency, in my opinion,
mission, consisting OF seven members,
who should be empowered to grant an
increase in currency when requested by
banks or Commercial l~oentres, and also
empowered to limit the time during which
this increase should he outstanding, and to
compel a decrease when such is needed.
This plan would give us a currency far
more elastic than II the problem we're left
to individual and independent instructions.
In fact, the main cause OF financial strin-
gency in the crop moving season from Sep
tember to January Is anxiety on the part
Of the people that there will not be sufficient
currency to manipulate their products.
Now II the public understood that there
was a currency commission upon which IL
might call for an increase OF issue, this APP
prehenaion would all be removed and the
tight times, as we say, made practically

GASOLINE IN THE SEWERs.
Gas Company Has Strong Evidence or ITS
Presence In the Explosion Deli.

William H. Bradley, chief engineer OF the
Consolidated Gas Company. said yesterday
at his office that it had been conclusively
shown that the explosions on the West
Side are not attributable to illuminating
gas"
we have been very much disturbed
as the result of those sewer explosions, =
said Mr.. Bradley. ~The natural tendency
has always been to attribute these acct.
dents to gas lcaka sc. For this reason, when
the first explosion took place, we imme-
diately began an investigation, and from
mat time until the present time we
nave mad half a dozen men in that locality
day and mig hit in search Of any possible
trouble with our mainse or service pipes.
we have not made a discovery Of one case
OF gas leakage.
1T is a peculiar fact that all these ex-
blossoms have taken place on Friday and at
Some OF this mornings papers lay the
cause to gasolene. About a week ago a
lady notified us by letter that there was an
odor Of .gasolene in her house. We sent a
make an investigation. He found there
was no odor of gasolene in the house at
that time.
Notwithstanding this, l placed a man on
constant duty in front Of this house and
told the woman who had made the COM
plant to call the man in the moment she
detected a recurrence of the odor. the
man had been on duty for some time
when he was called into the house and at
this time the maj found a very strong odor
of gasolene.
There must, of course, be some vent for
the fumes, Of gasolene or anything else
there may be in the sewers, and 1t is a fact,
as investigations l have had made show,
that in many Of the houses in that section
OF the city there are no sewer traps. The
Ignition of the vapor that causes the ex-
plosion does not necessarily occur in the
sewer, but an imperfect trap between the
house and the sewer allows the vapor to'pass
from 1t into the house, where it is ignited
at the. first convenient light and travels
from there into the scwer.
The company has had no less thar nine
teen samples Of air from the sewers ex-
amined. The analyses nave not vet been
completed, only in so far as to show us the
entire absence of illuminating gas.
w had a man down in one OF the sewers
affected a week 6 last Friday in connec-
ton with our Investigations and the odor
OF gasolene was so strong in the sewer that
we tied a rope to the man so that We could
pull him up in case of his collapse. We
finally ordered him out. He had entered
the sewer through the second manhole
west Of Broadway in Fifty-ffth street"
What do you think of the suggestion
made in some of the morning
that the gasolene in the sewers is due to
leakage from the garages in the neighbor-
hood?" was asked.
Il know nothing whatever about that
IL is not incumbent upon me to determine
where the gasolene comes from"

JOHN l.. WOODFIELD ARRESTED.
Patrick lyman Thinks He Got ~ 600 From

funds and secured a loan of $500 on a note
from Patrick lyman of Bound Brook. When
the note came due Mr.. Woodfeld renewed
it n the second time it was due he is said
to have paid no attention to it. 1t is said
that Woodfeld later paid $40 on the old
note and asked lyman to accept a new note
$3.50, which he said he would take to the
First National Bank of Bound Brook.
1t is further said that Woodleld went TO
the bank ard got the $3.50 note discounted,
appropriating the money, making 81 900 in
all that lyman says il due hinc. Sheriff

REFUSES TO PARDON SHERRICK.
Indiana Governor Says He Paid or $40 600
Of Private Debts With Public Money.

INDIANAPOLIS, April 7.-Gov. Hanly
to-day refused to grant a parole to former
State Auditor David f. Sherrick, con-
victed of embezzling the funds of the State
and serving a term of from two to twenty
ore years in the northern prison. Petitions
signed by II 900 persons were presented
to the Governor asking that Sherrick be
paroled. The Governor issued a long
statement in which he sought to justify
his refusal and in which he made a number
Of sensational charges against the con
victed State official.
The Governor says that Sherrick went
into office in January, 1908, with nothing
but his official salary to depend upon Be
fore he had drawn his first quarterly salary
he had paid off 500, 900 Of private debts
with public money and had lost SO, 400 at
gambling at French Lick. His gambling
debts were paid with checks in the banl
where he had the States money on deposit.
and from that day to the day of his ~resigna-
ton. declares the Governor, he was a de-
~faulter to the extent of many thousands
Of dollars. The Governor say that Sher-
rick was unable to settle with the Treasurer
of State July 1, and waited till July IS,
and then used the collections for the second
quarter to pay what he owed IN the first.
