BOY BADLY BITTEN BY
DOG WHILE AT PLAY.

When Mrs Charles Krauth, of 631
Sussex street, Harrison. left her homo
to go to Newark to do some shopping
yesterday she decided to send her a.
year-old son William to the home of
Mrs. William Tinnie. neighbor. When
she returned few hours later the boy
was not at the window OF the sTinnie
home and Mrs. Krauth wondered. She
did not think that anything was wrong,
however, and continued home.
She had hardly got inside when
George Tinnie, opening the door. told
her that his pet dog had attacked the
boy and that the little fellow was in a
serious condition. Mrs. Krauth hurried
to the Tinnie home and there found DR..
Henry Alters ministering to her son.
A fox terrier with which young
Krauth was playing suddenly turned
upon him and paved" him. Mrs.
Tinnie heard the child scream and
pulled the dog away. DR.. Alters, who
was hurriedly called, found that the
boy had had q remarkable escape from
losing the sight of his left eye. The
physician took four stitches in the
youngsters cheek and bandaged several
ugly cuts on his face and forehead
Some time ago while in the Trinnte
home Willie was attacked by the same
Dog and his fcrehsad was badly cut.

EX-U. S. COMMISSIONER
ROWE DECLARED INSANE.
Man Held as Embezzler Is Ex.
amined by Alienists.
Especial to the Newark star.l

TRENTON, Dec. 2s.-According to a
report now in the hands of District
Attorney VreelSnd, former United
States Commissioner Linsley Rowe. OF
Jersey City, who Is awaiting trial on q
charge of embezzlement, Is insane.
Since his indictment by the United
States grand jury last October Mr.
Rowe has been in the county Jail here,
His peculiar actions in the jail led his
counsel. Barton B. Hutchinson. to en-
ploy alienists to examine into the
mental condition of the prisoner.
The report states that Mr.. Rowe Is
suffering from dementia, a mental de-
terioration, and loss of memory, due to
excesses. II Is intimated that his oon-
dition Is incurable. The physicians
who made the report are DR.. Henry A
Cotton, medical director OF the State
Hospital for the Insane. this city, and
County Physician Frank q. Scanned,
also of this city.
When the report is submitted to the
court 1t is likely that commission
will be appointed to determine II Rowe
is insane, and upon its findings will
depend whether or not he will have to
stand trial or be committed to a sani-
tarium Rowe was indicted for en-
bezzllng bail moneys deposited with
him.

Turner walked over To Mensano ano

He was quickly overpowered and
placed In a dungeon, while physicians

ROBIN, NORTHERN
BANK WRECKER,
INDICTED As THIEF
New York Grand Jury Hands Up
True Bill Against the
Flnancier.

NEW YORK, Dec ,20.-+The grand
Jury this afternoon handed down IN
indictment against Joseph @. Robin,
whose financial transaotions are alleged
to be responsible for the closing Of the
Northern Bank Of New York on Tues
day last. The indictment specifically
charges Robin with the larceny of
$4,000 from the Northern Bank.
Tho indictment was handed down to
Judge Grain, of the Court Of General
Sessions. AS soon as 1t became known
that the indictment had been filed,
former District Attorney Jerome. who
is Robins counsel, announced that he
had already informed District Attorney
whitman as to the whereabouts Of the
indicted man.
Mr.. Jerome said that there was some
doubt as to the mental and physical
condition of Mr.. Robin, and asked that
two detectives be sent to the mans
homo and formally place him under ar
rest. Then he asked that Robin be not
brought to court until tomorrow, 80 as
to allow physicians to examine th1 man
and determine his condition.
Bail Fixed at s25, 200.
Mr.. Whitman offered no objections to
these suggestions. Then judge Grain
fixed bail temporarily at $4,000. and
Robin will be arraigned tomorrow If
his condition Is deemed satisfactory.
superintendent w. H. Hotchkiss, of
the State insurance department, ana
Superintendent o. H. Cheney. of the
State banking department, today went
still further into the tengle that Rob
ms operations had woven for the
Northern Bank. The district attorney
carried on another inquiry. and as a
result of these Investigations the belief
was held that the virtual or actual i'm
pairment Of the banks resources would
reach s1,o00.oo0. twice the amount that
the developments UP to yesterday had
indicated.
Neither Mr.. Cheney nor Mr., Hotch-
kiss would commit themselves to a
statement that this amount would not
be exceeded before the investigation Is
completed.

EXPECT SHEEHAN
DECLARATION ON
\. !. TOGA FIGHT
Public Statements and Circulars
Add Interest to the
Contest.
DECLARE SHEEHAN WILL
HAVE CAUCUS MAJORITY
Shepard Committee Appeals to
Upstate Voters for
Support.

NEW YORK, Dec. 29.--Public state
mcnts and circular letters favoring the
principal Democratic candidates for
the seat In the United States Senate
about to be vacated by Chauncey M.
Depew become more numerous with
| the approach of the first of the year
and the time for the convening of the
next State Legislature. From William
r. Sheehan something Is expected to-
day in the nature of a reply to the
recent declaration in his favor by
prominent Democrats of BufraIo, his
former home. William Church Osborn,
chairman Of the committee which is
advocating the candidacy OF Edward
M. Shepard. heads long list of we'll
known New York Democrats who have
signed an appeal to voters asking them
to write to their representatives in the
Legislature in Mr.. Shepard's favor.
This contest for the senatorshtp is of
unusual Importance, because the in
coming Legislature will be the first
that has a Democratic majority and
power to send a Democrat to the United
State Senate since the late David B.
Hill sat in that body. Mr.. Shepard and
Mr.. Sheehan are the leading cnndi-
dates, but In the event of deadlock
between them friends stand ready to
press the claims of Supreme Court JUS
ttce James w. Gerard, D. Cady Her
rick, J. Sergeant Cram or Daniel F.
Cohalan. Cram and Cohalan are close
ly identified with Tammany Hall.
Sought Governorship.
Herrick resigned from the Supreme
Court bench six years ago to make an
unsuccessful run for governor. Both
Justice Gerard and Mr.. Shepard were
prominent candidates for the guberna-
torial nomination at the last Demo-
cratic convention.
William b. Sheehan Is New York
attorney and a partner of Alton B.
Parker. He now comes to the front
after sixteen years Of Comparative po-
littcal retirement. In 1894 he was leu
tenant-governor, and previous to that
speaker, and later minority leader Of
tho Assembly. He was prominent as
a worker in the Parker presidential
campaign. but since then has taken lit
tie active part IN politics, until the
recent State campaign. His friends
say that Mr.. Sheehan already has
enough upstate legislators pledged to
insure his success at the party cau-
GUS. Next week the scene of the pre-
liminary skirrnishes will be transferred
to Albany, when the hackers Of the
candidates will go to the capitol for
the Inauguration of Governor Dix and
the convening of the Legislature.
