The notorious Kelley's patch on Lu
serne stre was the scene yesterday of
a prolonRwl tight among: the colored
clement of the neighborhood. Begin
ning at S o'clock in the morning a con
tinual wrangle was kept up until last
evening, when the tolice quieted the
disorder. Bon. Johnson, he of the con
vict suit, ash wagon and educated dog,
was the central figure of the melee.
No bones were broken, but a shot gun
was snapped ill two by a ulr of scuf
llers. Johnson received u knife thrust
on the riiiht thumb. The blade also
made a slit in the back of Ken's coat,
lie churged Sam Terry us the slinger
of the steel. A warrant was issued
last night from the ollice of Alderman
Blair for the arrest of Terry on a
charge of assault, threatening and at
tempt to kill. A hearing was held In
the police court at .X0 o'clock.
Jt was a motley assemblage that lis
tened to the ease. Johnson's wife Is a
white woman, and in the neighborhood
hi the patch the white man lives In
the same house as the black man. Tiie
women ar even more familiar. Iist
night Johnson Jiad as his witnesses
two black men,, his white wife, two
black' daughters, a, ' 14-year-old "white
boy and two white girls. Terry hail, no
Witnesses and no defense except an oc
casional Interruption. '. It was shown
that Terry struck at -Johnson with an
tipen knife- In, his hand. The knife
Made closed,! cutting Terry's finger.
Johnson showed the stH in the buck of
)iis coat. He accused Terry of cutting
that slit. "No," said Terry.
Then after a weighty discouse John
son proved that.he.hiiiihself could not
have-'i)osslbly have cut the slit. The
testimony of Annie Llewellyn and Nel
lie Aten, the two white .girls!'. showed
that their habits of life' might be
changed with good results. The Aten
girl Jives on Tenth street. She Is spe
cially recommended to the attention of
Mrs. IJuggnn. of the Associated churl
ties ; The light was the result of an old
urudlge,. "Terry boarded once upon a
time at Johnson's house. He refused to
pay -ftip-the hi Mini and Johnson confis
cated a pair of Terry's shoes in lieu of
money. The alderman held Terry In
$000 bail to n'pear at court. Johnson
was' balled at"4UK to appear as prose
cutor und the two black witnesses,
tleorge .Matthews and William Wade,
Were held in $M each.
All was l'urniBhcd except Terry's. He
will go to Jail. The main fight was In

UOONEY BADLY INURED.
Fourteenth Ward Couslablo Trampled ty
a Runaway Uorso. While Standing, cm
the Sidewalk of Jackson Street.
Constable Lawrence Rooney. of the
Fourteenth ward, was perhaps fatally
Injured yesterday afternoon on the
West Side by being knocked down by a
runaway horse. Mr. Rooney was con
versing with Michael Fadgen on Jack
son street at about 5 o'clock. The two
men were on the right sidewalk of the
1SU0 block. A large bay horse, driver
less and running at its utmost speed.
came down Jackkson street pulling a
light buggy. When within a few feet
of Mr. Rooney the runaway swerved
from the road and rushed upon tlie
sidewulk. and before tne constable
could move he was knocked down and
trampled upon by the terror-stricken
nnimal. As the horse plunged onward
the buggy bounded over the vrostrate
body of Mr. Rooney.
He was picked up and carried into a
near by house and Dr. J. J. Carroll was
called. After an examination of the
Injured constable Dr. Carroll conveyed
the constable to the Rooney home on
lower Lafayette street. The Injuries
consist of a badly cut head and the frac
ture of three ribs. Presumably tlie
horse's foot fell upon the man's breast
and the weight forced In the ribs, also
causing dangerous Internal injuries.
Mr. Rooney also suffered other body
bruises and at last reports his recovery
is doubtful.
The horse was being driven by two
young men from the North End. As
they were rounding the corner of Grant
avenue and Jackson street, at the top
of Boone hill, one of the buggy wheels
fell off. The horse became frightened
and made a lunge forward. Both men
were thrown out of the buggy. One,
however, held on to the reins and was
dragged a distance of fifty feet. He
and his companion were severely hurt.
They were tuken Into the house of a
Mr. Flynn, and after a few hours' rest
the two were able to walk to their
homes.
After knocking down Mr. Rooney, the
runaway went as fur as Sumner ave
nue, where It wus stopped.
Mr. Rooney Is an aged man. This
fact greatly lessens his chances for re
covery. At a late hour last night he
was sinking rapidly. He is generally
known throughout the city. The
names of the two young men could not
be learned. They were unknown to
anybody In the vicinity of the accident,
and they disappeared leaving no names
behind.

Rheumatism Cured in 24 Hours,
T. J. Blackmore, of Haller & Black-
more, Pittsburg, Pa., says: "A short
time since I procured a bottle of "Mvs-
tlc Cure.' It got me out of the house
In twenty-four hours. I took to my bed
with rheumatism nine months ago and
the 'Mystic Cure' is the only medicine
that did me any good. I had five of the
best physicians In the city, but I re
ceived very little relief from them. I
know the 'Mystic Cure' to be what It
Is represented and take pleasure In rec
ommending It to other poor sufferers.'

MARKET AKD STOCK REFG3T
Wall Street Review.
New York. April Is. A firmer tone
characterized tit trading at the Stock
Kxchang -today. It appears that on yes
terday ta-o prominent traders concluded
to take profits and fully 3U.0QU shares of
various stocks, including Bugar and the
Grangers, were thrown overboard. The
stock was well taken, however, and today
when 4he bears discovered that there was
no additional stock pressing on the market
changed front and attempted to cover.
Sugar was the special feature of the
trading and on dealings of 20,000 shares
moved up to 123. which is within per
rent, of the best figure of the year.
Washington houses and brokers connect
ed with refining Interests bought block.
Tobacco Jumped from tiXH to 7271, recent
short sellers being conspicuous buyers.
In Gas stocks Consolidated of New York
bounded up from lo7 to ItW'j oe Intima
tions that there will be no unfavorable
legislation at Albany at this session. Cot
ton Kll common and Preferred ruled
higher, the common rising to 14 and the
Preferred to 57. The talk on this sto.'k
is anything hut favorahle. because of the
retirement of Directors Ailums and Cheney
from the management, k will be recalled
that Adams was a factor In the last re
organisation of the property. In the rail
way list Manhattan moved up I'fc to 110
and then returned to luf'.alfS1. The
