LEAPS TO DEATH
IN NIAGARA RIVER
Buffalo Man Sees Young Vile
Throw Self Into Water Near
Brink OF Cataract.
QUICKLY JUMPS TO RESCUE
Struggles Desperately for Over an Hour
to Save Wife'S Life, but
Without Success.

Niagara Falls. June 8.-LOuis COheI
of Buffalo saw his young wife leaf
into Niagara river between the sec
ond and third Sister islands yesterday
afternoon, only $50 feet above the
brink of the cataract. without a mo
ment's hesitation he followed her
caught her hand and made a despeT
ate struggle to save her.
J Mrs. Cohen probably died in her
husbands arms. Before it was posi-
bic to bring efficient help an hour had
passed, during which time Cohen was
making frantic attempts to reach
shore. With his wife tightly clasped
to him, he felt the twenty-mile cur,
rent carry him against a tree stump,
which he caught with his free hand.
Waits Long for Help.
He shouted for help and word was
carried to the reservation police, but
nearly an hour elapsed before Officer
James Martin, accompanied by Repre-
sentative James S. Simons and three
other men, arrived with ropes.
They threw the rope three times be-
fore it dropped within COhen's grasp.
When he caught it he was too weak
to tie it about his own or his wife's
waist. When Cohen finally caught the
rope the men on shore began to pull
him to land, but within fifteen feet of
the shore he lost his grip on his wife's
body and it was carried down stream.
Cohen's first words when r~esuscitated
we're: MY wife is out there. Go and
get her. She is dead. She died in
my arms"
Daring Men Save Body.
A crowd skirted the Goat Island
shore looking for the body, and Cohen
Joined them, insisting that the body
must have stopped short of the cata-
ract and might be rescued by men
enough.
William Barnett and Hugh Brown,
two of the s%earchers, finally saw the
body held fast by a rock about 100
feet above the brink of the cataract.
Without ropes they waded into the
stream and with great difficulty
brought it to land. Life was extinct.
Cohen, who recovered quickly from
the shock, says that worry over the
care of her baby depressed his wife
and probably caused her death.
