KNIFE, POISON,
GAS FAIL TO KILL
Michael A. DOnOhue Took
Triple Method to Try to
End His Life
HE MAY LIVE AFTER ALL

Cutting his throat from ear TO ear. swal
lowing a quantity of laudanum. then
locking himself IN a room. after turning
ON the gas, Michael A. Donohue, aged 65
years. a shoe dealer. at No. l70s Scott
street. failed TO kill himself yesterday
and it is said that he has a good chance
TO recover. He is patient at the Delaware
Hospital
Worry because he is cripple and was
also suffering with an ailment. which at
tarkled him several years ago. caused the
aged man 10 make the determined effort
to kill himself. That he did not succeed
was due to the watchfulness Of Lillian
Reed. a servant in the family. who found
him about $50 o'clock lying on the floor in
a pool OF blood with the gas turned on
full.
He was seen yesterday afternoon by
neighbors and aroused their suspicion by
his strange actions. They suspected some.
thing was wrong. About o'clock he en-.
tered his store. locked all the doors and
windows and drew down the blinds. The
servant girl was the only other occupant
Of the house. She was in the kitchen
ironing.
DcleCtcQ OQOF OF Gdts
The girl detected the strong odor OF gas
and she notified Mrs. Lewis Allison. Of
No. 1905 Scott street. The latter ran TO the
corner Of Delaware avenue and Scott
street where she informed Harry Chap
man that something was wrong at the
Donohue home Mr. Chapman knew Dono.
hue we'll and he ran to the store and
forced the door. he saw the man lying
PROSTATE on the floor and was startled
when the latter called 70 him 10 ''get
away from there" and being able TO reach
door, slammed It in Chapman's face The
latter shortly afterward again forced tle
door and this time he saw DoRohue lying
on the floor in a pool Of blood. He was
then certain that the aged man had done
harm to himself and he summoned DR.
Joseph p Wales and Dr. John Palmer.
Returning to the store with the physi
clans he found Donohue still on the floor
A hurried examination revealed that h'
had cut his troat with a shoe knife and
also drank the contents OF two-ounc'
bottle of laudanum.
The physicians gave the man temporar,
attention and they had him taken to tn
Delaware Hospital in tho phoenix ambul
ance.
Patient is Very Weak.
DIR. Wales said that the mans condition
to-day was as good as could be expected
He had lost considerable blood and thi
together with the effect Of the laudanum
he swallowed. made him very weak I
will be two days az least, before IL can b'
said whether he will recover.
Fortunately Mr.. Donohue did not strik
any vital part when he gashed his throa
The blade did not go deep enough to in
hict a fatal wound. That the laudanun
did not cause death was perhaps due 4
the fact that he took an overdose Of Il.
Mrs. Michael Mccarthy. a daughter o
Donohue. who lives with him, had been
in Philadelphia and did not know Of tn
AFFAIR until she stepped from a Baltmor
and Ohio train and was told Of il.
Mr. Donohue conducted a store at III
