lick Unto Death and Unable to Protest.
They Prepare him for Burial and go
Through a flock Ceremony.
It is not often that a man has the privi-
lege of being laid out for burial and of
attending his own wake, when perfectly
cognizant of what is going on about him.
Thoughts occasioned by such proceed-
ings would not be at all congenial to the
peace of mind of a well person, and he
would be likely to make some vigorous
protest, but in the case of John O‘Leary,
who lives in the Hadden block on Wall
street. Norwalk, it was vastly different,
although he was obliged to go through
just such a seance and was too feeble to
make the least resistance.
Mr. O‘Lsary is a gardener, and has f'C'
aided in Norwalk but a short time. He
was formerly employed by Florist Smith,
of South Norwalk, and went up town to
work at Hanford’s floral hall. He was
an excellent workman, steady and relia-
ble, and was getting along nicely when
he was taken down with dysentery. He
was neglected, however, by his wife.
Sunday, the attending physician, to save
the man’s life, engaged a woman to sit
up nights with him and see that he got
his medicine regularly. The doctor had
prescribed brandy for him, but as suc-
ceeding incidents will show, the patient
got very little of the stimulant. or even
his medicine. Tuesday night a crisis was
reached. The women. it is said by those
familiar with the facts, had become so
fond of the brandy that they couldn't
leave it alone and early in the evening
they began to feel its effects. Then, it is
asserted, they commenced to quarrel, as
BirefO’Leary suddenly became exceed-
ingly jealous of the nurse, and accused
her of trying to alienate her husband‘s
affections. The poor sick man feebly
protested against such carryings on, but
to no avail. The nurse suddenly became
possessed of an idea that Mr. O‘Leary
was going to die, anyhow. and cooly in-
formed him that he might justas well
be laid out and made ready for burial
then as at any future time.
The work was accordingly commenced.
The patient‘s limbs were straightened out
and his arms folded across hisbreast.
After being thus arranged the man was
too weak to change his position, and
could do nothing. The women than de-
cided to have a wake, it is said, and with
the assistance of the brandy they went
through a mock ceremony. The horrors
that the sick man passed through during
the night by the women’s orgies cannot
be described. lie was exceedingly glad,
however, when morning came. His con-
dition rapidly became worse, and at
noon. yesterday. it was believed heVeould
not live. Last evening his condition was
somewhat improved, and there is now
more hopes for his ri-covmy. A new
nurse has been secured and every rilort
will be made to bring llllii through. His
employer and the doctor are highly in-
dignant at the treatment the man has re-
ceived. as are also the other residents of
the block, and measures will be taken
that Tuesday night's procwdlngs do not
happen again.
A peculiar plume of the vase dovelopvd
today. when the patient passed nearly
half of a grown frog in); muarkably
fair state of preservation after having
been through the digestive organs. The
head and a portion of the body were in-
tact. Mr. (l'lueary has no remembrance
of swallowing the reptile, but he says he
was in the habitat drinking from the
rubber hose pipe used at the nursery. and
the physician can account for the lam. in
no other way, but that the frog must
have gotten into the paiieni’s surmaoh
through the hose.

SOME FURTHER SECRETS.
To be Dlvulgsd Regarding the Working-
of the Bethe! (lountofleltol'l.
The press, rollers. lining machines and
other paraphernalia used by the band of
alleged counterfeiters, most of whose
members have been arrested by agents
of the Secret Service Department, were
taken to New York yesterday, and are
now in big cases in the rooms of Agent
Forsyth, the head of the division of the
Secret Service Department.
Experts who have examined the plates
and fibre paper found at Bethel, are
unanimously of the opinion that some
remarkably skilled artisans made the
plates. In minute elaboration and nicety
of finish they are far ahead of any coun-
terfeit plates that have ever come under
the inspection of the Secret Service De-
partment. and it is the opinionthat they
were made in England.
Chief Hazen expected that he would be
able to divulge some further secrets as to
the workings of the gang yesterday, but
he concluded that all was not yet ripe for
the disclosure. and instructed Agent
Forsyih to say nothing until today. it
is expected that some further arrests-will
be made. Massey, Hoyt and Murphy
have been unable to secure bail, and they
are still in Ludlow Street jail. Their ex-
amination was to be held before Commis-
sioner Alexander the afternoon at 2
o'clock.
United States Commissioner Wright,
of New Haven, said last night that the
counterfeiters would not be brought be-
fore him possible until Saturday after-
noon. p
Although the past history of the two
Hoyts is now pretty well known, the an»
tecedents of Massey and Murphy, the
other alleged counterfeiters, whose tools
and outfit have been seized by secret
service detectives, are still unknown.
Murphy especially is a puzzle.
There are not more than thirty profici-
ent bank note engravers in the United
States. and if Murphy was an American
it is thought that he would be known.
It requires fourror more men to produce
a bank note plate in the regular way.
each having his particular department.
In addition, a lathe is used for the nu“
chanical designs. Such plates as those
now in the hands of the secret service
agents must have been the work of an
excellent allvaround engraver of at least
ten years‘ experience. Mr. Forsyth is
still working on Murphy's past history.
The New York Sun says: ,
When Murphy was first arrested it was
reported from Danbury that he gave the
name of James Davis,but was recognized
as Humphrey Otis. This recognition
must have been on the part of the de-
tectives, for Murphy had not been living
long in Connecticut. It may be a coin-
cidence or it may be an important fact
that twenty years ago there was a forget
and counterfeiter known as Humphrey
Otis.
Massey, on whose person some of the
had money was found, has been more or
loss intimately associated with crooks for
yours. lle has never been arrested be-
fore, however. Among his former cum-
panions was Steve Uroailwell, who was
arrested two years ago on a requisi-
tion from Ohio. He was charged with
forginga draft on a Cincinnati bank. lb»
was too sick at the time of his arrest to
be removed. and he died a prisoner in
New York city. Like Mmsey and theme
Hoyle, ilromiwell was a batter by trade.
It is said that live years ago Maser-y
made arrangements for forging a let-
lot of credit on llrexel, Morgan & (To.
The Brooklyn engraver who was doing
the work for him [u'ncbed before the job
was completed. Massey was not primo-
cutml, and the matter was allowed to
drop. These facts regarding Masai-y
were learned on high authority, but out—

Another unfortunate walked off the
Consolidated railroad tracks at Spring
street. last night about 9 o’clock, receiv-
for; injuries which may maim him for
life.
The man was walking from New York
to the eastward, and being unacquainted
with the locality went directly over the
abutment, falling a distance of about ten
feet. His cries of pain brought people to
his’a’ssistance, and officer Essen. who was
on duty in Springwood, came after Dr.
Burke and then went to Solmans‘ stable
for the ambulance. which, under the
guidance of Robert V'eitch, soon arrived
at the scene. The injured man was
tenderly placed inside, and conveyed to
the hospital. his going there making the
tenth patient and filling all the cots in

Dr. Hitchcock was telephoned for and
made an examination of the man‘s in-

spine, which is very badly bruised. He
gave his name as Washington Donnelly,
a railway clerk in Chicago. He was very
neatly dressed.and looked unlike a tramp.
He afterward said he had been thrown
out of employment by the recent strike.
and started for Boston, near which place
his uncle lived. The latter is a farmer
and Donnelly expected to work for him.
He became short of funds and was walk-

The Porch-u llade by the Quarter-Mne-
ter-Grnornl to be Tested at (lamp.
Quartermaster-General John P. Har-
blson has recently bought for the use of
the National Guard. in case of an emer-
gency call for service in the field remote
from catering facilities, fourteen sets of
Bozzacot's camp cooking outfits. Two
sets of the apparatus will be issued at
Camp Bradley. one to each by Company
B, Fourth Regiment. and the Fourth
Section of the Machine-Gun Bat-
tery, the two organizations which
have elected to draw uncooked rations
and cook their own food in camp.
The other sets will be held in
reserve at the state arsenal for a possible
necessity and may be issued to one regi-
ment for use in camp next year. The
cost to the. state for the fourteen sets is
about $000. This cooking apparatus has
been adopted for the regular army, nearly
1,000 sets having been issued, and by the
states of \Vest Virginia and Missouri.
General Harbisou bought the regular
army size, which is a complete outfit for
boiling, roasting. baking. slewing, broil-
ing and frying. and includes complete
oven and all cook's tools. Each outfit
will cook for nearly 100 persons and
weighs less than 200 pounds. The size
packed is 30:27 inches. The apparatus
can be set up anywhere outdoors: no hole
is required to be dug and any kind of
fuel can be used.
The decision of the two organizations
to accept uncooked rations on the regu-
lar army basis will be of economy to the
state as the raw rations will cost the
state but twenty cents per day, per man,
t50nih1i~sury4ioneral William Jamicson
has contracted with caterers to feed the
troops in camp for $7 per man for the
eight days, or eighty-eight cents each
per day. The troops pay one-half this
amount. Thus the acceptance of the
regular bill of fare by these two organiza-
tions would have curtailed an additional
expense to the state of twenty-four writs
per innn. per day, or about $1.50 for the
week.
