Several women in the crowd swooned, The body after glancing off the coping landed on the opposite side of Broadway. A letter from the Monteflore Home and Hospital and an unsigned wil | found in Goldman's pockets told the story and made clear that his sul cide was deliberate long before the police learned from his relatives that he had been threatening to destroy himself for some time past. He seventy years old and was a sufferer) from asthma and stomach trouble The only man who saw him start on his death journey was James Gal- lagher, an attendant in charge of the observation platform in the Singer Building tower, According to the elevator operator who took Goldman to the tower about half past eloven, after he had paid the necessary fifty cents, thera was nothing in his manner to indicate he contemplated making the plunge. Gallagher corroborates the elevator man as to Goldman's unusually calm conduct. Gallagher says that after reaching the tower stood drinking in the sights of the city for least half an hour, He says the man actually smiled as he alluded wan ; to objects along the skyline, Subsequent events showed Goldman was evidently trying to disarm Gal- lagher's suspicions, for the moment the attendant got far enough away from him Goldman climbed over the rail four and one-half foot guard reaching the other side just as lagher turned and divine? his inten tions, MADE JUMP AFTER FAREWELL LOOK AROUND HIM.

SAN MICHELE TAKEN AND RETAKEN 25 TIMES. ROME, Aug. 10.—King Victor Emmanuel of Italy, riding beside the Duke of Aosta, who is his cousin and commander of the Third Army, led the entry of the victorious Italian troops into Gorizia after the forcing of the bridge across the Isonzo. They were followed by the cavalry and the cycie corps. The Duke was with his gaps dysingtbe three. aap Preceding final success. The Austrian aviation station of Aisovizza, six miles east of Gorizia, ‘has been captured by Italian troops, who are continuing the pursuit of the Austrian force that retreated from the fortified city Strong Austrian intrenchments northeast of Monte San Michele, near the village of San Martino, have been pierced by the Italians, They have occupied Boschini, The number of prisoners taken so far on the Gorizia front is reported as 21,750, Guns and other booty have not been counted. As an indica- tion of the determined character of the struggle it is stated that in the last fourteen months San Michele has been taken and retaken twenty-five times. For seven months the Italians have held one-half of the summit. The Italians are seeking to cut off and capture the Austrian naval and commercial bases on the Istrian Peninsula. With the advance of the army there looms more and more strongly the probability that the mili- tary success will compel the Austrian fleet to leave Pola, and either give battle or strike its colors to the allied fleets, At the same time, the Italians are pushing heavily against the Austrians in the Trentino, Military authorities say that a short advance against the Austrians on the Adige River will open the way for extended operations against Rovereto and even Trent itself.
