A STRANGE CASE OF HEMORRHAGE.
Louisville (Ky.), June 26.Prom a hole not larger than a pin point James Mullen, of 1012, Seventeenth-street, bled to death yesterday morning. He had been iil for several months and his malady baffled the physicians who attended him. Dr. Wood, who was with him when be died, ascribed his death to the fact that his blood lost all its ooagulative power and had taken the appearance of milk, the corpuscles becoming perfectly white. From a small scratch or cut the' blood flowed with such rapidity that :on several ; occasions it was scarcely possible to stop it in time to .save his life. Yesterday morning one of the smallest of his blood vessels under the tongue became broken. The point where blood came from was: so small that no danger was apprehended at all. All efforts, however, to stop the flow were futile. , rf Every remedy was resorted to, bub to no j avail, and id little less than an boor Mr. Mullen bled to death.
