HIS LIFE WENT OUT
 IN 4 FLOW 0F BLOOD
The Dead Body of Augustus Donald
 son Found at the Phoenix Hotel.

Augustus Donaldson, a man of about fifty. was found dead in his room at the Phoenix hotel yesterday. The body was discovered a little after II o'clock and from the advanced stage of decomposition it was thought that death must have taken place the afternoon before. Donaldson had been seen about noon of "Wednesday. The hair was neatly combed. from which 1t is surmised that he must have been seized soon after entering the room and lying down.
 A great pool of blood on the floor beside the bed showed how he died. Feeling a hemorrhage coming on he had put his head over the side of the bed and death left him in that shape. The people at the hotel knew nothing about him, except that he had come there two weeks ago. they understood, from Globe; he was also thought to be a prospector.
 At the inquest held by Coroner Johnstone in the afternoon much other information was developed. While Donaldson had come here only a couple Of weeks ago. he had been visiting Phoenix for several years for his health He was a resident of San Francisco.
 Papers found in his room showed that he had a deposit of s45O0 in the Hibernia Savings and Loan Society of San Francisco and a deposit of an un- known amount in the San Francisco Savings Union. He had a little more than s30 in his pocket.
 Another document contained the names of his relatives. nephews and neices. all of whom live in New Orleans. They are Joseph Berry, Dennis Berry. Bernhard Berry. Gussie Berry and Mary Berry. A telegram was sent one of them. informing her of the death of her uncle and asking what disposition should be made of the body. In a paper left by the dead man there is a request that his body might be buried in a Masonic ceme- tery.
