express wonderment at how the Nebras

VETERAN ATTEMPTS SUICIDE.
Imagining a Conspiracy Exists,
Robert McClusky Cuts Throat.


Imagining he was to be hanged by per-
sons who had formed conspiracy
against him, Robert McCMsky sixty-five
years of age, an inmate of the Soldiers
Home, made an effort yesterday after
noon about o'clock to end his life by
cutting his throat with a razor. The vet
eran who served throughout the war
and sustained severe wounds at the bat
tie Of Gettysburg. served in the 18th In
fantry, having enlisted in New York city,
and has been an inmate of the local 1nsti-
tuition several years OF late he confided
to others that there were persons hang
ing about the grounds who were going to
kill him, and he worried so much about
the imaginary aSsassinS that he was
driven to desperation.
McClusky was about the grounds with
his companions yesterday morning. his
conduct not indicating he was more
greatly disturbed than usual, and he was
at the dinner table as usual. He seemed
to enjoy the noon meal Of which he ate
heartily, but later when he went to the
building in which he had his bed he
seemed somewhat disturbed, thinking his
enemies were near the building and that
he would be taken by them II he made an
effort to leave. After telling friends OF
the condition of affairs he picked up a
razor and cut his throat. Blood spurted
from the wound and the veteran became
so weak that he fell to the floor.
1t was stated afterward that he acted
so quickly that those who were about
him were unable to disarm him and pre-
vent him from cutting his throat. Nc
Clusky was hurried to Barnes Hospital
and given surgical treatment, and despite
the serious nature Of the wound the
physicians say he has good chance to
recover.
