THE FIRST WARD HOMICIDE.

We gave, on Saturday morning, an account of a
disturbance in Greensich-st, during which Police
man David Gourley, OF the First Ward, was stabbed
by John B. Holmes ole of the Democratic candidates
for Alderman. Gourley died yesterday afternoon.
The following il more minute account Of the affair:
Between ~ and O'Clock on Saturday morning,
David Gurey one Of the First Ward Police, arrested
man in Greenwich st., for dsordery conduct, and
was convo wing him to the Ststionhouse, when John
b. Holmes. aliss "Tipperary Jack, the " Soft-Shel
candidate for Alderman Of the First Ward, came up
with come others and attempted it s said. to rescue
the prisoner The officer kept them of for few MIN
utes but Holmes finding that the prisoner was one
Of his strong political friends became determined TO
rescue him. and swore that he would not allow po-
Eceman 10 take q friend Of his to the Station
house. Gurey, then, thinking 1t better TO Sc
cure Holmes than the man he had arrested,
let 90 of the latter and caught hold of Holmes and
was proct eding 10 convey him TO the ststionhouse,
ppintimidated by the crowd which gathered around
him. when Holmes plunged a knife into his cheek,
iIfictng severe wound. The Off ,er kept his h0ld,
and a moment afterward Holmes stabbed him in the
left side betw cen the br1 and fourth ribs by this
time Policeman Sheehan came up, and, as Holmes
was about to make his escape from the wounded onl-
Ger. seized him ard felled him TO the pavement with
bis club-not, however, before the desperate had
made two unsuccessful punges at him with the
knife both Of which were warded of by the oit'
GERS club Holmes was then taken to the police
station and locked up for the night, and the wounded
man was conveyed to the Hospital, where he died At
o'clock Yesterday afternoon. Yesterday morning
Holmes was taken before Justice Osborne and con
