STABBED IN HEART BUTJCNEW IT NOT FATAL ENDING OF A LONG STANDING FAMILY FEUD. Edward Moran Plunges a Knife Twice Into the Body of His Brothor-ln-Law, Thomas GUllgan. Ono of the Thrusts Entered tho Heart, But Gllligan Walked Around for Some Time Unaware of It--Moran Was Retreating When the Killing Occurred, A fatal stabbing affray with many unusual features occurred In Provi dence Saturday night. The deed was committed by Edward Moran and his victim was his sister's husband, Thomas Gllligan. The affair took place In the road at the ten hundred block of West Mnrket street ubout 10 o'clock- p, m. The men had quarreled early In the evening, but were quieted and walked home together In company with the peacemaker. At 10 o'clock they met again, renewed the quarrel and engaged In a light that ended In Moran stubbing Gllligan twice, ono of the thrusts penetrating tho heart. Three years ago Gllligan lived with his wife's patents nnd It appears had some kind of a niother-ln-lnw quarrel. There was a coolness between Gllligan and Moran, growing out of this trouble, and frequently when In their cups they had hot words. Saturday both of them had been drinking, although not to Intoxication. At t o'clock they met at tho corner of West Market street and a little un named cross street leading over to Mo hawk street, where both resided. They exchanged angry words nnd blows were imminent when a neighbor happened along and Induced them to cease their quarreling and go home. They walked with tho neighbor to Mohawk street nnd separated on apparently not angry terms. MEN MET AGAIN. After supper Gllligan went to town, Later In the evening Moran went to the home of his brother, a few block1) down West Market street, to borrow a novel for Sunday reading. At 10 o'clock he was returning homeward In com pany with George McLaughlin, a one legged man, and Just as he had reached the corner where the quarrel of tho early evening took pluce, Gllligan, who had come out ot an adjacent saloon, overtook him. "Well, you arc not saying ns much as you have been saying all day," Gllli gan remarked when Moran neglected to notice him. "I can say as much ns I please. and nobody Is going to stop me," Mor an replied. One word led to another nnd Unully to blows. They wore lighting but a few moments, according to McLaugh lin, who stood helplessly by because of his Infirmity, when Gllllgnn Jumped back from the side walk Into the gut ter and exclaimed with an outh "I'm blabbed," at the same time holding out his left arm from which blood was freely flowing. Moran retreated down West Market street with Gllligan following him. He stopped In front of Mrs. Patrick Mor rison's house nnd, according to his own story, tried to open the gate and escape, as he feared Gllligan, who measures six feet and weighs one hun dred and eighty pounds, would suiely kill him after receiving the stab wound. THREW STONES AT HIM. Falling to open the gate he faced about to meet his pursuer. Gllligan stooped and picking up a couple of big stones hurled them at Moran. "You're a dirty coward," Moran was heard to exclaim. This, apparently, caused Gllligan to stop I1I3 stone throwing and unmindful of bis badly gashed arm made a rush nt Moran. They grappled and In the scuttle that ensued Moran again used his knife, thrusting the blade Into GlU'.gan's breast. While locked together they fell to the ground nnd rolled over Into the gutter, Moran on top, A young man named Michael Me Gulre, who happened along, attempt ed to separate them, but received a thrust of a knife In the palm of the right hand and scurried away. Patrolman John Saltry, who lives on the opposite side of the street from where the fight was going on, had been aroused by tho first sounds of the quarrel and dressing hurriedly ran out to see what the trouble was. When he reached tho scene of the fight Mor on was pommeling his big antagonist nnd Giltlgan was trying to save him self from tho furious blows. Tho ofllcer tried to drag Moran to his feet, but he would not let go his hold around Gllllgan's neck until the officer said: "Let go Moran. this is Saltry." "Oh, all right, I'll quit," said Moran getttlng to his feet. The officer told them they could both consider them selves under arrest; that they had been making too much nolee around there that evening, and to teach them a lepson he proposed to lock them up. GILL1GAN ASSENTED. "All right John. Lock us up. That'H the best thing to do," 6ald Gllligan very demurely. "Yes, lock us up. Paltry. I'm per fectly satisfied," Moran said. While Patrolman Saltry, was hold ing the men and waiting for a mes senger to bring him his hat, coat and Sells the Best. Why Eat Trash?

COURSEN shoes, Glllllgan asked to be allowed to go nwny a little distance as ho was feeling sick and wanted to vomit. The permission being granted, Gllli gan withdrew. Ho had not gone far when he cnlled for the olflcer and said ho was getting weak. Patrolman Sal try suggested taking him Into tho hausu and binding up his arm before starting for the police station which Is three-quarters of a mile away. As they were going Into tho house, the ofllcer noticed a largo blotch of blood on Ullllgnn's shirt. "Weren't you cut more than once Tom," ho ask ed, "No, I guess not," ho replied feebly. "Only on tho arm." The ofll cer cnlled for a light, and barring Gllllgan's breast discovered a Jagged hole In the heart region, from which the blood was fairly squirting. Gllllgnn never know that a knife blade hnd entered his heart or even that he was stabbed tho second time, until the ofllcer disclosed the wound to him. At sight of It he began to grow weak In the knee and but for assistance would have fallen. "I'm dono for, John," ho said cooly nnd without a tremor. "I feel myr.elf going, A stretcher was Improvised from loose boards, Moran helping In the work. Four of the large crowd that had now collected picked up the stretcher and started with the wound ed man for his home. On the way over, and when within forty yards of the house, Gllligan raised himself to a sit ting posture, gurgled something about his back paining him and, as it struck by a club, dropped back dead. He never said a woid relating to the light. TWO KNIVES FOUND. Patrolman Saltry was hurriedly dressing, Intending to follow nnd get a statement from him, when one of the crowd came back with the word that he had died on the way to his homo. The officer put Moran In charge of two citizens nnd began a Fearch for the weapon. He found n yellow, bone handled, nnc-bladcd knife, with the blade closed, and blood on the handle, lying near the sidewalk. Ho showed It to Moran, but Moran failed to identify It ns his knife. The search was re newed nnd nnothcr knife was found near the middle of th road, Just oppo site the scene of the scuffle. It was a small black, odd-shaped knife, tho handle being curved like the "line of beauty" In the stem of capital letters and the largest of Its three blades being so ground down as to have n concaved edge. This largest blade, two and one-half Inches In length, was open and there were slight traces of blood nt the hilt. Morun Identified It as his. He went out with the ollleer und selecting n stone weighing ten pounds, said Gllligan had hit him with It, nnd asked the officer to keep It along with the knives, which tho ofllcer agreed to do. The stone had a few drops of blood on It. He nlso declared that Gllligan had a billy, but no trace of it could be found. On the way to the station house Mornn enved In and bad to be given stimulants. From that time on, though, he held himself together well, only oc casionally giving way to crying. He frequently, however, expressed the wish that he might exchange places with his victim. Dr. E. 7,, Bower arrived on the scene soon nfter the occurrence, but too late to bo of any good. Dr. John T. Mc Grath, acting coroner, mnde an exam ination of the wounds and found that tho thrust in the breast bad passed be tween the fifth and sixth ribs and en tered a distance of three and one-half Inches, showing that an Inch of the handle must have followed the blade Into the wound or elso that the blow was so strong that the breast was forced In an Inch when Moron's list grasping the handle struck It. Moran was committed to the county Jail by Alderman Roberts and was tak en there in tho patrol wagon yesterday afternoon at two o'clock. He would not say anything when a Tribune re porter sought to get his story of the affair, except to pitifully repeat "For God's sake don't speak to me about It." Moran sustained two cuts on the head besides several bruises. The cuts have the appearance of being mnde by a blunt Instrument, rather than a knife. A MARRIED MAN. Gllligan was thirty-eight years of age and leaves a wife and two chil dren. Moran is forty-two years old. He Is ti married man but has no chil dren. Both are miners and both came of very respectable families. . THERE WAS NO FIRE. But Chief Hlckey and His Bride Re turned to Scranton. Chief Hlckey, of the fire depart ment, and his bride got a rousing re ception on their return to Scranton nt 1 o'clock yesterday morning. A fire alarm sounded by District Chief Mc Manus from box 12 brought the district companies to the Delaware, Lackawan na and Western depot where Chief Hlckey was received with a great deal of noise. When Chief Hlckey left Scranton nf ter being married last Thursday morn ing he said he would not return until Wednesday. Fearing some kind of a demonstration, he kept the real hour of his return a secret. On Saturday he telegraphed District Chief McManus he would reach home at 1 o'clock Sun day morning. The hour suggested Chief Hlckey's purpose to escape an ovation. Hundreds of persons In the business section of the city followed the lira department apparatus to the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western depot. When Chief Hlckey appeared, he and his bride, the latter's brother and daugh ter, William Glegcr und Miss Mnmo Fnsshold and Miss Kate Brier received a tremendous reception. Tho crowd yelled and the bells on the Crystal, Nay Aug, Phoenix, Century and Hook and Ladder npparatus were rung. As soon ns opportunity permitted the bridal party entered a cab and start ed for Chief and Mrs. Hlckey's home on Plttston avenue. South Side. The cab was followed up Lackawanna ave nue by the firemen. COURT HOUSE NEWS NOTES. John Glbboi.s was appointed by court Saturday as guardian of the IUiane chil dren.

' Shot nnd Instantly Killed James Moffltt and Sent Two Bullets Into the Head of Warren Richmond. He Camo to This City But Went to Mooslo Yesterday Morning Where Ho Was Placed Under Ar rest by Chief of Police Loftus, or Plttston. George Bartlett shot and Instantly killed James Molfltt. of Butler Hill, Plttston, Saturday night and seriously Injured Warren Richmond. A ball from Bartlett's revolver passed through Moflltt's brain killing him In stantly. Two balls entered Rich mond's head nnd nro there yet but the attending physicians say he will re cover. He Is so weak, however, that It has been decided tiot to probe for tho balls Just yet. The Injured man Is ut hU home on Butler Hill. After doing tho shooting Itartlett es caped and made his way to .this city. Early yesterday morning he went to Mooslc on a trolley car and was de tained there until tho nnivnl ot Chief of Pollco Loftus, of Plttston, who plac ed him under arrest. lie was some what Intoxicated but his faculties were not so benumbed that he could not realize tho terrible position in which ho Is placed. He cried bitterly as ho was being taken back to Pltts ton. He Is now In the county Jail at Wllkcs-Bnrre. The murderer Is a married man nnd resides on Scarle street, Plttston, with his wife and three children. He Is 33 years of nge, a miner by occupation and has heretofore borne a fairly good reputation. Occasionally he became intoxicated nnd was then noted for his ungovernable temper. He wns not wholly sober when he did the shoot ing. STORY OF THE SHOOTING. There are several stories told about tho shooting, but the ono which seems to bo nearest the truth Is as follows: Some time ago a keg of beer wns stolen from a Plttston saloon and Bnrtlctt, Moflltt and Richmond were among those arrested for tho theft. They were arraigned before Aldermnn Barrett, but tho matter was settled by the ac cused agreeing to pay for the beer and also satisfy the alderman's bill of costs. Altogether this amounted to J13 nnd It was paid by Bartlett, the others agree ing to reimburse him for their share of the bill. They did not do so, however, and Saturday evening, when the men met In tho saloon of Mrs. Donohue, of Mill street, Plttston, they had angry words over the matter which resulted in Bartlett drawing his revolver nnd fir ing. After the first shot Moflltt dropped to the floor with n bullet through his brain. This seemed to further enrage Bartlett and he commenced to lire In a very reckless manner. Those In the room hastily sought tho exits, but all were not quick enough. Richmond, too, sank to tho floor with two bullets In his head. Bartlett Immediately left tho place and started toward Scranton, reaching hero late at night. Early yesterday morning he rode to Mooslc on a trolley car and went Into the hotel of ex-Mayor Loftus at that place. Some one on the enr recognized him nnd Informed Mr. Loftus that he was wanted at Plttston for murder. Mr. Loftus sent word to Chief of 'Police Loftus that Bartlett was at his place, nnd then by various ruses kept the murderer within doors until the ofllcer arrived. MADE NO RESISTANCE. Bartlett mnde no resistance and when Informed of the terrible result of his work of the previous night he cried bitterly for some time and expressed the greatest contrition for his act. Moflltt, his victim, is 35 years of age, single, and the only support of his mother and sister. Deputy Coroner Jacob W. Evans empanelled a Jury Sat urday night Immediately after the shooting. After the body wus viewed It was taken to Moflltt's home. COMMON PLEAS COURT. Three Weeks' Session of Civil Court Begins Today. A three week's term of common picas court begins this morning.
