Frank Bllcko. of Sherman avenue,
rns the victim of peculiar circum
stances Wednesday afternoon which
nearly cost him nn eye, an ear, several
teeth and a broken leg, and hut for th
timely Interference of some of his
f i lends, he might have even suffered
death. The trouble all came about
over a small sum of money and the
result of Bllcko acting as-peace-maker.
It seems that John Sharlck, who con
ducts a saloon on Twenty-second
st! cot, was entrusted with some money
liy one of his countrymen and several
thers wanted to get possession of It.
Among the number were Stephen Ga
doola, Andrew Doodlsh and Michael
Doodlsh. Hllcko tried to persuade the
trio that the money belonged to a poor
man and that It would be Injustice for
thrm to spend It.
When the DoollshCs and Gadoola
leallzod that nilcko opposed their
wishes, they knocked him down, al
most gouged IiIm cyi- out, chewed his
'iir nearly off, loosened several of his
teeth and battered his right leg until
Jt wus almost useless. Not content
vlth thus abusing him. Hlleko's as
sailants broke several beer bottles on
his face nud head and otherwise mal
treated him.

LA GLORIA COLONY.
Report Made by a United States Offi
cer with Reference to It and
Its Prospects.
For the benefit of those Interested In
La Gloria colony, In Cuba, the follow
ing report from Lieutenant Evans, who
wbb assigned by the commanding offi
cer of th Nuevltas to Investigate tho
colony nnd clear up the situation, is
given without prejudice to either the
colonists or the company In yester
day's "sew York Sun as a special de
spatch from Havana:
"The property occupied by the colon
ists Is four miles nnd a half Inland.
All the roads are poor now nnd are
practically Impassable In rainy weath
er. The land Is thickly wooded. It Is
mostly low ground and will be very
fertile when cleared:
"There are 175 persons. Including a
doctor and twenty women nnd chil
dren, now on the ground. They are
living In tents with no floors. No lum
ber can bo obtained nearer than Nuevl
tas. Good water Is obtained from
wells from ten to twenty feet deep.
The sinks are open pits and are not
well covered. Kitchen refuse Is not
disposed of. No fresh meats have been
procurable since the camp was estab
lished. Rations arc plentiful, but ex
pensive. The company, the report says, has
not made the final payment on any
part of the land and has no deeds to
it. Hence the colonists have no deeds
nnd they are more or less suspicious.
Tho report also says that tho company
nas not carried out its promises re
garding the construction of a sawmill
and a hotel. The total contracts for
the land amount to $51,000. The presi
dent says that this will soon be paid.
The company has on the ground two
horses, three mules nnd one wagon. A
small steamer piles between tho colony
and Neuvltas.
This report refers only to the colony
