NEW YORK. Feb It'll with pleuro
pneumonia and TOO weak to scream for
help, Douglas Hudson Riker a pub
fisher of I56 Fifth avenue. Dattled for
his life with an Infatuated bulldog. He
was found hours afterwarG, uncon-
scious. stretched across the lifeless hody
of the cog, which he had smothered with
a blanket
The Rikers live N the Minnetonloa
apartment house, Brooklyn, and II was
there that the struggle with the lnfuri-
ated animal occurred The dog, an
English bull, was presented TO the pub
Usher in Florida last month. Riker re-
turned TO Brooklyn four DAYS ago, and
was taken III almost immediately.
While Riker was very weak, his enest
incased in surgical wraDpings, he was
left alone for several hours, as he was
sleeping. Mrs. Riker. tie mother OF the
young man, was in an adjoining rooIn'
also asleep. The dog wandered into tho
sick mans room and stretched out on
a rug.
After midnight Mr. Riker was awaken
ed from his sleep by a weight upon the
bed The dog was standing on MS
chest. He tried TO push the brute awe.
and the next instant it snapped at him.
Springs for His Throat.
Not realizing his danger. Riker again
tried to throw the dog from him, and
the beast, with a growl. sprang for his
throat. In the dim light of the room
Mr.. Riker seized the animal by .i,-
throat. and held it at arms length from
him. It. continued 10 struggle. at times
forcing its oren Jaws TO within few
inches of his face, so that its hot breath
famed his cheeks.
The sick man tried to call for help,
but the weight on his chest, and his in
ability TO speak above a whisper pre-
vented while, with both hands engaged,
he was prevented from ringing ths bell
al MS bedside. So he continued hts
struggle with the dog whose anger at
being held increased until II frothed at
the mouth and the foam was tecked
about h3m.
How long he struggled Mr.. RIl1er does
not know. But IL seemed 70 MIN an
hour. Every minute he could feel has
strength grow less. In the battle the
about the invalid, became disarranEed.
and this probably saved the life Of Mr..
I;iker.
Forces Dogs Head Into Blanket.
In one Of the moves made in the
struggle a blanket became twisted and
