fore Justice Dodge, at the Jefferson Market Police
-,t,v hot
rant might be issued for the arrest OF Francis Nc
Intee living at So. l52 Seventh avenue and that he
should be held TO answer for fclonousiy assaulting
him. II was hardly necessary to inquire OF the pc
tloner what MS IN, isies were, upon tho removal
OF huge bandage taat covered his right eye that
portion or his face presented a horrid sight and II
was observed thai he had received q deep cash in
that organ Of sga. winch destroyed ii. The circuu-
stances shat Caused this brutal assault rs alleged,
are, thai botn Bergan and Mclntec were
members 81 social club. whose. rooms are
situated on the west side OF the city,
and tho success OF this organization being
movement led by Bergan. which threatened tho Sc
cesson OF many members and the formation OF an
opposition club designed 10 demoraze and destroy
the parent society. The more the former reflected
upol the proposed action of the rebes, the angrier
he grew. and at last he breathed vengeance, avow-
int hat such freedom OF action could and would
not DO tols atci. that guch measures should DO
adopted o. % etectualy crush all proceedings Of
like character: but WHAT means these were could
only be guessed 40 or deduced from glancng over
EcIntees previous career. The disquietude con
tinucd, as alleged, tho opposition daily gaining
strength, while the regulars we're more deter
mined than ever 10 crush out secession, when. Ivy
accident the rival leaders met some time Friday
evening last In lager beer saloon on sixteenth
street, near Ninth avenue, when the old quarrel
RACED with greater lerceness and matters culni-
mated. There was fight. deadly assault and an
eye lost. How n occurred Is not sufficiently clear.
but Al ID said that while Bergan was quietly luailDg
his beer McIniee approached and dealt him a vio-
lent blow-evdently his method Of crushing 0pposi-
tion"-and when demonstrated with .'strnck outv
again, that he might not be misunderstood. AT this
repeated outrage Bergan did his best 10 prevent the
recurrence OF such evidences OF brofherly love, when
Mcfntee drew large knife. and, striking him with
II, suddenly Gashed out the right eye, as alluded TO.
The nature Of the wound alarmed the assalant, and
forgetting dlsorganized social club and that he
the champion OF their rights, turned his back upon
the bleeding man and escaped. The court granted
the warrant sought and about noon yesterday officer
Leaycrat had the desperate McIntce locked up In the
sixteenth police station house, from where he will
be removed this morning aud arraigned before the
bar at Jefferson Market TO answer che serious charge
preferred against MIN.
