About half-past elk o'clock last evening, as

wagon through Cumminsviie, having 10 com.
psny with him 4 shoemaker, named Peter
Snyder, who resides on Rittenhouse. street, In
this city, they were met by one-horse
barouche, containing four persons-Augustus
Gandolfo, Peter Gandolfo, Erastus Ven Wor-
mer and man named Morrow. As they
passed, one Of the patty In the barouche struck
their horse with b whip. Snyder jumped out
and demanded an explanation, when Van
Wormer remarked that he did not strike the
horse, and if he was not satisfied he could whip
him. Snyder refused to fight, when one Of the
party, Augustus Gandolfo, knocked him down
with the butt ofa whip. Friends interfered,
when the trouble was Supposed to be ended
Snyder stepped to the rear of the barouche,
whom Peter Gandolfo, brother to Augustus,
rushed up and stabbed him In The neck with
sharp dirk. k.knifs. Ho fell to the ground and
expired almost Immediately. The brothers
9andolfo were arrested by the citizens of Cum
minsville, and would have been hung right up,
had it not been for the timely interference Of
Constable Reedor, Of Millcreek Township, who
took thom in custody and brought them to
tho Ninth-street Station house. Coroner Carey
held an inquest over the body last evening, and
will render verdict TO- DAY. The deceased was
thirty five years Of age, and leaves q wife and
ono child to mourn bis untimely death. Van
Wormer was arrested at the instigation of
Chief Wilson, in the city, about half. past
eleven o'clock last evening, by Officers Chum-
ley, Smith and Harrell. Morrow Is still at
large. DR.. Carey will hold post rnortern ex-
animation over the body OF tho decea.ed this
morning.
Great Excitement prevailed among the citi-
zens at Cumminsville, and at one time it was
almost impossible to keep the infuriated
crowd from taking the law into their own
hands. Snyder, the murdered, was on q
visit to his wife, who had been stopping for
some days at the house of Mr.. Fisher, near
Cumminsville. Wesaw the Gandolfo brothers
at the Station house this morning, and they
appeared careless and unconcerned. They,
inscompany with Van Wormer, will have
hearing in the Police Court this morning.
The deceased was worthy man, and from
the evidence before the Coronor's Jury
showed no disposition to get into trouble.
He never spoke after he received the fatal
blow. His wife was sent for Immediately
and arrived to see her husband corpse.

ness in company with their father, on Twelfth
street between Elm and Plum. Van Worme,
