Thomas O'Connell, a roomer in the Park Hotel, was the victim of an atrocious attack by an unknown stranger last evening, while he slept, and as a result his head is swathed in bandages today, with an ugly cut two inches long. Dr. H. T, Bray is attending the injured man. According to the story told by O'Connell, who is a deaf mute, he retired about 9:30 o'clock last eve- ning, forgetting to lock his door. As near as he can ascertain, he was awakened about 11:30 o’clock by a nolse in his room, and in the dark- ness he discerned the form of a man prowling about. As he rose the stranger approached the bed and hit him a vicious blow on the head, ren- dering him unconscious, Fellow room- ers discovered him lying on the floor some time later and summoned aid. Robbery was not the motive for the attack, according to O'Connell, who found all his belongings intact. He is of the bellef that some enemy was the assaillant. The police have not been notified of the assault. YATES TO HELP Washington, Jan. 2.—Secretary Redfield today assigned Captain C.
