panied one Of the Wright Brothers in the

treasurer and McDonough was nicknamed
Norman Mack on account of his treas

McDonough was elected as a delegate to

PULLIAM SHOOTS HIMSELF
President of National League Tries tc
End His Life.
HIS RECOVERY IS DOUBTFUL
Sight of Both Eyes is Destroyed by
Bullet which Pierces Coating of
Brain-NO Explanation
of Act.

NEW YORK, July 2S.-Harry c. Pull
lam. president Of the National League OF
Base Ball Clubs attempted suicide tonight
in his rooms on the third floof the New
York Athletic club.
Standing in the middle of the ROOM
Mr.. Pulliam held a revolver to his right
temple. He fired only one shot. 1t went
in at right temple and came out seven
inches away on the left side. The bullet
destroyed the right eye and passed through
the upper part of the left. 1t is not be-
lieved he can recover, although he con-
tlnued conscious for some time after the
shooting.
The sound OF the pistol shot was not
heard at any other part of the club house
but Mr.. Pulliam in falling to the floor ap-
parently dislodged the receiver of a tele-
phone which was standing on a table
nearby. The operator on the ground floor
answering the signal, got on reply, and
sent a bellboy to Mr.. Pulliam's room to
find out what was the matter. The door
was unlocked and the boy, failingto get
any response to his knocks, opened 1t and
walked in.
Unable to Explain Act.
Lying on the floor half clad, lay the
base ball magnate. The boy rushed down
stairs and gave the alarm. DIR. Higgins
the club physician. was hastily summoned
and after making a hurried examination
directed that the coroner be notified. Mr.
Pulliam, although still conscious and able
to speak, appeared to be too confused to
answer the physicians questions coher-
entity.
The wounds were carefully dressed, but
the physician had little hope of saving Mr.
Puliam's life.
Coroner's Physician Shrady, who arrived
about half an hour after the shooting
assisted DR.. Higgins in attending to the
wounded mans needs. Both of them at
tempted TO get some explanation OF the
base ball presidents attempt to kill him
self. but he could not give ineligible an
swers, The coroner's physician, leaning
close to Mr.. Pulliam's ear asked slowly
why did you shoot yourself?"
There was no reply. He repeated the
question. Mr.. Pulliam reused himself con-
fusedly and asked in a dazed manner:
why who's shot?"
Again the question was asked. and this
time all that the stricken president could
answer was a muttered What shot?'
The physicians decided that any further
questioning was Hhely 10 enuanBer Bul-
liam's slim chances of recovery Assisted
by club employees, they placed him in
bed and did everything in their power to
relieve his pain.
Both Eyes Destroyed.
The sight OF both eyes was destroyed
by the bullet, the physicians said. AL
though the course OF the bullet was not
traced, 1t appeared It had entered at least
