EVENTS IN THE COUNTIES BORDERING THE FRANCISCO
THUG WITH HATCHET
ASSAILS DEAF MUTE
Probably Fatally Injuries Afflict-
ed Man in Vain Effort to
Secure Gold

OAKLAND, May 5.-Painfully writ
and shoulders hacked by a man armed
with a hatchet. William H. Winslow.
deaf mute, slowly told the story of a
fight in the dark with his robber assail-
ant in a small house at Sunol this
morning.
The robber stood over the PROSTATE
mans bed and the outrage went on in
silence, as Winslow was unable to cry
out owing TO his infirmity. The as
sailant continued to rain blow on blow
without even a curse
The victim had regained conscious
ness short time before he was dis
covered by neighbors, who missed his
appearance as usual. Constable Lar
kin Locke of Pleasanton said that rob-
berry was apparently the motive, as
Winslow was known to have sold his
vineyard and to have received $4,000
in cash short time ago.
Though the assailant ransacked the
house after Winslow became uncon-
scious he secured solitary $40 gold
piece from Winslows clothing, the
other money having been deposited in a
bank. Evidences of the haste with
which drawers and other articles of
the scantily furnished house had been
gone through were plainly discernible.
A tramp who had been lettering
about Sunol for several days and who
might easily have learned of Wins
lows transaction from the talk about
town has been suspected and his de-
scription was forwarded to Sheriff
Barnet, who afterward passed it to
the police of nearby cities.
Deputies Brown and Sherry in the
sheriff automobile have been detailed
to work on the case and started for
Sunol promptly after the news reached
Barnet.
Winslow was removed to Providence
hospital of this city.
