A New York drummer, ' who registered
Ins name as W. H. Hudson, ' and who has
been stopping at the Purcell House since
the 1 (Jib inst, wus found yesterday morn
ing to have taken ah overdose of laudanum,
it is supposed with the intention of killing
himself. The fact was discovered when a
servant went to his room (No. 31) to call
him to hreakfiwt, he being ti nable to arouse
him. ' ' lie reported the circiimslance, when
a physician was palled. lit found the gen
tleman breathing heavily ; and was of the
opinion at first that he w is beyond the
rtiach of help. He sent for two other phy
sicians to assist him, one of :who'ni was re
quested io brinS' a utomuch pump. Iu the
me lUtime atropine was r euteit into the
body of the patient by ma;ii j of au lustru
meui known, in medical parlaucu as a
hypodermic fyringe. whicl jseemed to re
lieve him somewhat and Ireudered his
breathing easier. The s oniacu pump
' i ' t ' '
was then brought into requisition
and used yeryj effectually after which
the patient was allow cd to sleep
quietly for, a short time, j He was -then
taken ur and walked backward and . forth,
supported on either side, ccpl water being
thrown into his face occasionally, and other
means adopted to keep him aroused as ef
fectually as possible, including the admin
istering of brandy, which had the effect of
reviving him considerably. .This treatment
was kept up from about half past 0 o'clock
in the morning until about half-past 5 in the
eve; ling, when the patient had so far re
covered that he was able to go down stairs
and was considered by bis physicians to be
but of danger. 1
Mr. Hudson u said not to have been ad
dicted to drinking to excess since bis ar
rival here, and no cause is i tssigned for the
alleged attempt lo take his life. A phial
was found in his room containing OBe drop
of a dark liquid,
supposed jo be laudanum.
