at the home of Mrs, Charlotte Os-
Joract’ Mais and Willow
by William Mecadows and Charles
Valentine, was walking east on
East Packer avenue. Midway be-
tween Thomas avenue and River
street, the three men who were
walking abreast, encountered an
Italian who was alone. The Ital
ian was in the center of the walk
and itisalleged that he bumped
into the three men in a rather un-
ceremonious and uncalled for man:
ner, according to the statement
made this morning by Chase The
Italian then ran toward “the river
and finally disappeared into a house
near East street which is occupied
by a number of Italians. The three
men continued their walk toward
the ball ground but when opposite
a high board fence on the north
side of the street below River street
a half dozen or more Italians
jumped from behind the feace and
before the men were aware of their
intentions the foreigners drew
knives and proceeded to cut and
slash. Chase fared the worst ol
the lot. He received a stunning
blow on the side of the head which
knocked him down and rendered
him senseless. His two compan
ions were also the victims of divers
blows, but escaped serious injury
The foreigners were finally put
to rout and Chase, bleeding pro
fusely from a wound about three
inches long in the side of the head,
was taken to the office of Dr H
A. Haines,
During the fight several revol
vers in the hands of the Italians
were fired but none of the shots
took effect.
This morning Chase appeared
before a local justice and caused a
John Doe warrant to be issued
which was placed in the hands of
Chief Walsh, who arrested an
Italian laborer named Sam Clivio,
who is charged with having hit
Chase. It is claimed that one of
Chase's companions can identify
the Italian as the man who com-
mitted the assault, Clivio will be
given a hearing this afternoon.
DIED THIS MORNING
Mrs. E. F. Mercereau this mora.
ing received a telegram announcing
the death of her father, J. S. Cy-
“|phers, at his home in Falls, this
state, The deceased has been ill
in health for a long time and re
cently his condition has been criti-
cal. Some years ago Mr. Cyphers
was a resident of Sayre, and there
are many who will recollect him.
Mr. and Mrs. E. F. Mercereau
went Falls this noon. The funeral
will probably be held on Saturday.
WITHOUT STOPPING
For some years engines have
been taking water without stop-
ping, and mail trains have been
picking up mail sacks from posts
without so much as a pause. Now
an appliance for coaling engines
without stoppiog has been invented,
and experiments with it are said to
have been highly satisfactory. The
next improvement for the saving
of time will be a device for throw-
ing passengers on and off the trains
without stopping. !
