Infidelity and Murder.

A correspondent Of the Cincinnati Times.
writing from Cairo Illinois. dated June 4,
gives the following details of the infdelity
of wife and subsequent desperate conflict
and murder:
l hasten to transmit to you the particulars
Of one Of the most terrible events our COM
munity has ever witnessed A man named
John Gallagher has been living here for
some two months, boarding in one Of the
fiat boat taverns which still infest our levee.
lie is represented to lie o hard working
peaceable man. Some time ago he sent for
his wife. whom he left in your city, and it
appears that on her trip down. she made
the acquaintance Of the Waterman of the
steamer. and consented to run away with
him to st. Louis, when he should get ready
to take her. Yesterday morning Gallagher
heard Of this, and at first could not believe
It, as he had never suspected the fidelity Of
his wife. lie was soon convinced Of its
truth, however. and immediately applied to
Judge Cochran for advice
The Judge told him he had better take
his child and let his unworthy woman 90,
without making fuss about it. This Gal
lagher concluded to do. Ills wife heard Of
1t. and she called u man named Enoch Nc
Pherson. who is from Covington. Kentucky.
and who. having raft Of lumber beside
the floating boarding house, had made her
acquaintance, to assist her in retaining her
child
Gallagher took away his baggage and re-
turned last evening to get his child. lie had
piceed the little one up. and was leaving
with it when Mcpherson said, Cd d-n
you, let that child be or will cut YOU all
TO piecea' Gallagher paid no attention to
him. and was still moving of when Nc.
Pherson plunged knife into him. but a
short distance above his heart Mcpherson.
having committed this bloody deed. ran.
Gallagher pulled out a revolver and fired.
He shot AcPherson three times. once IN the
arm and twice in the back. Mcpherson
finding it impossible to escape, wheeled. and
approaching Gallagher. gave him a blow
which knocked him into the river. Gallao
her swan " the raft, distance OF twenty
feet. came out. and drawing their knives
We It at each other They fought full ten
minutes. decorating each other dreadfully.
A number Of bystanders looked on and were
80 terrified that none dared to interfere.
Among the observers was Mira Gallagher
who looked coolly upon the whole trsnsae-
tion. evincing not the least emotion. The
bloody contest was 1T last ended. GallaQ-
her succeeded in plunging his knife clear
through McPherson's heart, and he fell at
his feet . dead man, without utterine a
groan.
Gallagher was taken into custody. Hell.
cut and hacked dreadfully, and this morning
his recovery was considered doubtful The
coroner held an inquest last night over the
oody o. Mcrnerson. and the jury returned
verdict duplicating Gallagher in the crime
OF murder. This proceeding Is said to have
Dee" complete burlesque. Gallagher has
consequently oeen removed TO jail The A.
fair has caused gloom here, 90 dreadful
are the details Of the tragedy.
