Patrick j. McAuliffe, forty years
old, truck driver of 1913 Richard
street, Brooklyn, lost his life in Rari-
tan bay yesterday afternoon when he
attempted to regain his hat, which
had been dropped overheard from a
launch in which he, with a party of
twelve men from Brooklyn were sail
ing at the time.
McAuliffe, who could not swim,
jumped overheard after the hat and
before the launch could be stopped
he had become exhausted. Edward
Emotion, of 1877 Norman avenue,
Greenpoint, one of the party, jumped
into the water to save the drowning
man. He succeeded in holding him
up until the launch came about again
and those on board could pull him in
to the boat. Robert Henry, colored,
seeing the accident from shore,
jumped into a boat and pulled to-
ward the launch and assisted in get
ting the man into the launch. Nc
Auliffe was placed on the beer keg in
the launch and rolled to get the
water out of him. The launch was
headed for Stark's Raritan Bay Hotel
dock, at the foot of Beach street,
Richmond Valley, and the man taken
ashore. He was again placed ON the
keg, but without avail
DR.. Walker Washington, of Totem
Vile, who was called, said the man
was dead. Coroner William H. jack
son, of New Brighton, was notified.
He came down and gave J. P. Bedell
& Son, undertakers, of Tottenville,
permission to remove the body to
their morgue In Amboy avenue.
The launch William P, owned by
William Parson, of 121 Walcott
street, Brooklyn. is forty feet long
with cabin over nearly all of 1t, left
Brooklyn early yesterday morning
for a days outing. Everything went
well until the accident occurred to
mar the trip About O'Clock last
night the rest of the party returned
to Brooklyn to notify the dead mans
wife and three children of Mr.. Nc
Auliffe's death.
The body is still at Bedell's
morgue. 1t will probably be sent to
his home some time today.

Early This Morning.
FAILED TO ROB HIM

Walking through the upper yard
of the Lehigh Valley railroad short
ly after 1 o'clock this morning, Paul
Hrica, of 573 Sayre avenue, was held
up and assaulted by three men. The
trio jumped out of the shadow of a
box car, and as he threw up his
hands in astonishment, one of them
struck him over the head with q
sharp instrument. Hrica fell to the
ground and the three men fed with
out robbing him.
Hrica was passing through the
yard on his way home from Kirk
land place. He believes 1t was the
intention of the men to rob him, al
though no attempt was made after
he had been struck The trio had
concealed themselves behind the end
OF box car, and as he walked along,
unmindful of their presence, one of
them suddenly sprang at him,
clutching his throat. The first as
sailant was followed by his two COM
panions, one of whom dealt the vic
tim a stunning blow on the head
with an edged weapon.
Then they left him. Hrica made
his way from the yard, bleeding
from a cash over his eye. He c.
costed Patrolman Rymarczyk, and
told him OF the assault. Hrica was
advised to seek q physician. He be-
lieves he knows the men who as

Call Out Reserves.

Madrid, Oct. 1O.-The council of min
listers has been sitting In permanent
session discussing at length before
sending them to the Gaceta, the Off offsas
cial publication, the measures taken
by the minister of war calling out the
first army reserves.
The ministers entertained consider
able apprehension, fearing this would
be unpopular and consequently dan
gerous, but the attitude Of the Re
publicans during the last few days
made the step imperative.
In spite of close surveillance by the
police, who dog every step of the Re
publican leaders, frequent meetings
have been held at the residences of
Seniors Lerroux, Soriano, Perez Galdos
and other Republicans and Socialists.
At these gatherings not only has en-
thusiasm been expressed at the idea of
q resort to arms, but enthusiastic con-
gratulations have been openly tele-
graphed by the Spanish Republican
members to the new Portuguese gov
ernment.
Although so far there has been moth
ing more substantial than talk, 1t is
well known that Republican leader
has succeeded lately In importing
some arms across the French frontier.

WAS RUN OVER
BY HIS WAGON
Mystery of Martin SchuItz's
Death Is Solved by
the Coroner.
DROVE TO A SALOON

An investigation by Coroner Ferd
Garretson Saturday afternoon lifted
the cloud Of mystery concerning the
manner in which Martin Schultz, a
driver in the employ OF John Kutch-
er, liquor distributor, of Oak
street, met his death Thursday af-
ternoon. Contrary to reports,
Schultz was not picked up on the
road near the tracks of the Central
railroad in dying condition. He
walked into the saloon of Max Glass,
at Roosevelt, placed blanket on the
floor. and with four ribs fractured
and a lung punctured. he lay down
and asked for medical attention.
Schultz was run over by q heavy
wagon used to transport beer. 1t Is
the theory Of the coroner that he
was doing on the seat, as he had
been driving for several hours, and
was run over. Notwithstanding his
injuries, Schultz resumed the seat
and drove to freight house where
he backed his team against the plat
form. Harry Lee, a bartender en-
ployed at Max Glass's saloon, Roose-
welt, who noticed the wagon on the
road and followed 1t to order beer,
found Schultz sitting on the seat in
a dazed condition.
The bartender believed the driver
intoxicated. and carrying the beer
from the freight house he loaded 1t
into the wagon. Then he inquired
of Schultz why he remained silent.
The latter responded that he had
been run over by the wagon. Never
theless, he drove the team back to
the saloon and jumping from the
seat, took a blanket from the wagon
and placed 1t on the floor inside the
saloon. Lee sent for DR.. Wantoch,
and the latter found the driver in a
dying condition.
How Schultz happened to fall
from the wagon, the coroner is un-
able to say He believes, however,
that Schultz was doing, as he had
been out since A M. His theory
is substantiated by Herman Gurk.
a blacksmith, who saw the wagon
passing his place heading in the di-
rection of East Railway, about 1l:45
O'Clock. The wagon was empty at
the time and there was no reason, SO
far as known, why he should have
been going in that direction.
The driver lived at 2S6 Prospect
street, this city. He died on the way
to the city hospital in his employers
automobile

ternoon from st. Stephen Is Polish Cath
olic church in State street. Rev. Julian
Zielinski pastor, officiated and inter
ment followed in st. Stephen s Polish
cemetery. 1t Is asid that this was The

some time Many Of the men were
