GIVES BLOOD TO MAN HE SHOT
Italian Gives Up Large Amount to
 Save His Farmer Victim.

Amsterdam, N. Y., Sept 2S.-Yes- terday morning Jacob Van Evera, a farmer residing near Randall, Montgomery county saw an Italian roaming about his farm with gun Van Evera ordered the man to leave and on his refusal the men clinched and the gun was discharged, the bullet entering Van Evera's thigh. He was hurried to an Amsterdam hospital, a fast New York Central train having stopped at Fonda to bring the man to this city. Van Evera had lost so much blood that the surgeons feared to amputate his leg and concluded that the last re- sort to save his life was to trans fuse blood, and the Halian who was a trespasser on the Van Evera farm consented to give up his blood. The Italian was hurried from the county jail at Fonda to the hospital and about a quart of his blood was trans fused into Van Evera's body Van Everas condition fast night was very critical Whether the shooting was intentional or was an accident is a question.

CARBOLIC ACID USED.
John Riley Says Mistake Was Made
 in Treating Head.

Bridgeport, Sept 28.--John Riley was released from the county jail Saturday and was taken to the Lake, view home for treatment for burns on his head and chest. Riley stag gered into the emergency hospitay and requested Dr M J Rowe to treat his burns. The doctor saw that they were severe and asked for history. of the case. Riley said that he was sent to jail week ago. He had been suffering from wound on the hea l. When in jail the wound festered and he called the attention of Jailer Watt to it. The latter, it is said, took a bottle of carbolic acid, mistaking it for a bottle of hydrogen perodie and poured some of the contents on the wound. When the acid touched the mans head he jumped up and uttered a yell Some of the stuff fell on his chest and burned him SC !. verely. The mans time was up Sat- urday and he was discharged, and was instructed to go to the office of Dr c. Lincoln Banks for treatment every day. He, however, went to the emergency hospital. After dressing the wound he was sent to the almshouse.

N0osED AS SHE OPENS DOOR.
Cottager Near Greenwood Lake Sav-
 agely Attacked at Night

Paterson, N. J., Sept 2S.-Mrs Robert Bennett, whose husband is a travelling salesman, was alone in their cottage at the northern end of Green wood lake on Friday night when she heard noise at the rear door. As she opened it to investigate moose of half inch manila rope fell over her head and was immediately pulled tight. Mrs Bennett, who is strong and athletic, braced herself against the door sill but the nocse was drawn tighter and she was pulled through to the ground.
 In the dim light the woman could see that shabbily dressed man was pulling the rope. He sprang upon her wildly, and her clothing was torn off, her hands torn and scratch ed and her body bruised as the man beat her.
 She loosened the moose at length and screamed for aid. A man in a launch pulled up to the shore, and as he did so Mrs Bennett's assailant fled to the mountains. A posse started out, but no trace of the fugitive could be found.
 Mrs Bennett is in a serious condi- tion Her face is so badly disfigured that if she recovers she may be mark ed for life.

CLEVELAND FAKE STORY.
The Republican Committee Has
 Withdrawn Pamphlet.

New York, Sept 2S.-Broughton Brandeburg, who sold the New York Times a political article purporting to be signed by the late Grover Cleveland, attacking William J. Bryan, has admitted that Mir Cleve- land did not actually write the ar ticle as 1t appeared in print, nor did the ex-president actually dictate 1t as 1t was published.
 Brandeburg offered the article to the New York World, but it Was rejected r
 John G. Carlisle, secretary of the treasury under President Cleveland, was the first of Mir Cleveland's in innate friends and associates to question the authenticity of the ar ticle sold by Broughton Brandeburg and to institute an investigation as to its origin.
 q fully concur in the conclusion of Mir Hastings that the signature is not genuine" said MT Carlisle yes terday, land I know that to be the opinion of other close friends of MT Cleveland, who have examined the signature.
 q have not, however, relied alone upon the signature; there are inter- nal evidences in the document to prove to my satisfaction that 1t was not written by Mir Cleveland. Fur ther than this am not going to say at present. I certainly am not go- ing to give away the evidence we \ have, and I have advised MT Hast ings to say nothing more until we have further conference"
 The republican national com mittee has directed the withdrawal i of the pamphlet containing the, ar !, ticle alleged to have been written by the late President Cleveland, but re- gently repudiated by Mrs Cleveland and the executors of her husband s estate.
 Richard V. Oulahan, the literary director of the national committee, said last night. '.
 The republican national commit tee had many calls for the Cleve- land article, and We sent out a number of copies as campaign document. Mir Hastings, executor of the Cleveland estate, told me two days ago that he was convinced the letter was genuine. This was after the authenticity of the letter had been questioned. Now he comes out to-day and says he believes 1t was mt authentic"

DIVERS HARD FIGHT
Was Attacked By ! Buge Dsyll Fish iD Hold of . Sunksn
 Vessel.

San Francisco, Sept 2S.-Wrapped in the tenacles of giant devil fish, Martin Lund, diver employed by the Coast Wrecking Go, fought for his life In the hold of the wrecked steamer Pomona which lies in thirty feet of water in Fort Ross cove of the Marin county coast. Lund arriv- ed in this city yesterday after an ex- perience which comes to few men and will enjoy vacation before again donning divers dress.
 The devil fish had evidently enter ed the vessels hold during the night and Lund was at work some time be-. fore he became aware of it's presence. A giant tentacle four inches in di- ameter first gripped one leg. Before Lund could realize what had happen ed another encircled his thigh. The diver began to chop frantically at the rubber like bonds and at the same time signalled to the barge above that he wished to ascend. Unable to free himself in time two more tena- cles squirmed out of the darkness and one twined about his neck. The eff forts of the men on the surface to comply with his signal threatened to pull his helmet off and he was forced to signal them to desist. With only his left arm free he hacked at the tenacles until they were partially crippled but he was being drawn to- ward the deadly beak when he saw the outline of the devil fish's body. Plunging suddenly toward it he drove his knife with all his force into the head, repeating the blow until he had slashed it into sections. In its death throes the octopus frightened it's ten- acles until the diver was almost crushed in its embrace. Lund then cut himself free and was brought to the surface in fainting condition. Another diver brought some of the severed tenacles to the surface and 1t ] is hoped to raise the body and bring it to this city for exhibition.
