his hold and fell. The young man has a father and mother who are now coming from Pennsylvania to this place. It

MAN IN DELIRIUM CAUSED BY HEAT FATALLY
HURT IN JUMP FROM SECOND-STORY WINDOW
William ECKELS, 44 years old, an electrician was overcome by the heat Monday afternoon while repairing a controller
on a car in the State street barns. He was taken to his home at No. 181 Troup street and the family physician was
summoned. Wednesday night ECKELS was seized with delirium, leaped through the window of his room, and fell two
floors to the ground. He was taken to the General Hospital, and died yesterday afternoon.
Coroner KLEINDIENST was notified and the remains were taken to the morgue. An autopsy was performed by Dr. Clifford
V. C. COMFORT yesterday afternoon. Death was found to have been due to hemorrhage of the brain and py-t-s. The
coroner will give a certificate.
The autopsy developed a remarkable condition. After ECKELS was overcome by the heat he barely regained normal consciousness.
He lost his senses completely Wednesday night and when he leaped from the window the blow he received on the head
caused the blood clot to form on the brain.
As Dr. COMFORT proceeded with the autopsy he was surprised to find that decomposition had actually begun in the
vitals before death occurred. The heart was soft and flabby. The muscles were as if they had given out. The upper
lobes of both lungs were in a state of collapse.
This condition was due Dr. COMFORT said last night, to the terrific fever brought on by the heat. The man's temperature
at the time he was taken to the General Hospital was 108 1-5 degrees. Thus the man's vitals were literally burned
up. Despite all the physicians at the hospital could do the temperature was not reduced beyond two degrees. The
man was unconscious when death came.

SMITH was found to have had concussion of the brain, after being reported dead of heat prostration. Thomas and
John MORRISSEY have adjoining farms in Mendon and have made a practice of picking up help in Front street. SMITH,
who was 44 years old, had worked in the stables of James FOLEY, fireman at Truck 4, at No. 116 Magnolia street
and No. 512 Plymouth avenue. He left FOLEY Monday to work in the country.
MORISSEY reported yesterday morning that he found SMITH unconscious under a tree, where he spent the night, two
other farm hands sleeping in the barn. He went to Mendon for stimulants and on his return found SMITH dead. The
remains were taken to E. G. BROOK'S undertaking rooms in Honeoye Falls and Dr. Benjamin R. WHITE performed an autopsy
by direction of Coroner KLEINDIENST.
The coroner's physician found evidence of SMITH having been struck a blow on the head that caused concussion of
the brain, there being considerable hemorrhage beneath the spot struck. The body was battered generally, there
being two wounds on the head. Dr. WHITE notified the coroner, who went to Mendon with Sheriff HAMIL, Assistant
District-Attorney James MANN and Deputies POLLOCK, FOSMIRE and VIEHMANN.
The officials learned that considerable drinking had been going on and instituted a sharp inquiry into the events
of Thursday night on the MORRISSEY farm. It was learned that SMITH had been beaten in a drunken brawl and left
unconscious under a tree all night. Witnesses were found who saw SMITH being pulled around the ground.
Following the investigation Tom MORRISEY, who is 42 years old, and CLARK, who is 32, were taken before Justice
of the Peace FURLONG for a hearing. Both were drunk at the time and still intoxicated when, after the hearing and
the arrests, they were brought to Rochester. With them the authorities detained an old man, James MAHER, of Victor,
as a witness. CLARK, the sheriff says, has a badly swollen hand.
Coroner KLEINDIENST will open an inquest in the case at 10 o'clock this morning. The hearings before Justice FURLONG
were adjourned until after the inquest.
