Charlos Koons, a bruxeman employed on
tho Lehigh Valley freight tram that runs
between Mauch Chunk and Mt. Carmol,
was shot and seriously wounded at tho
latter place this morning while on duty.
As tho train was running at tho rate of
about twonty miles an hour and Koons
stood on the top of ono of the cars ho was
shot in the right eye by one of three young
men who stood near the track. It was a
gun shot wound. Koons retained his
presence of mind and saved himself from
falling from tho train. Koons received
temporary medical attendance and was
sent to his home in Mauch Chunk. The
young men disappeared and an alarm was
at onco sent out for their arrest. Up to a
late hour this afternoon they had not been
captured. Two of the parties aro named
Kosslor. It is believed that tho shooting
was purely accidental.
