ALMOST A MURD-ER


A Citizen shot by n ,,o-~t,bIc
About 10 O'Clock last night .ohn sharkey, a resi-
and beaten by Constable ,t'm Crawford AZ Howard
and oxford streets. .ae particulars, as we have
been able TO CLEAN Ie N, were as follows: Sharkey
FfaHod %n above in NoTs MSTR' sace 4ysTn IN
1nng the early pert Of ey the o to SyeRng SeW u 1o SSte
separated before any damage was done to either
The trouble was reconcled and the two left to-
gether, and went to tavern az Front @ street stree ana
pummeitng each other again. During TINS melee
Sharkey blta pretty good-szed piece from the upper
lin of Crawford. Sharkey was expelled from the
piace and while staggering around the place, was
taken in charge by policeman, who knew nothing OF
the occurrence. The officer wanted to take MIN home
ana they started but had not gone FAR before they
sepaTated Sharkey promising to go TO his dwelling
Instead OF this he went through to Howard street,
where he sat down on a step and entered into con-
versation with several men and women. Whlie STU
ting there William Crawford, George Crawford, and
a third party came along, and, getting in front OF
Sharkey, recognized him. Those sitting with
Crawfords commenced beating him with blackjacks.
He got OFF the step and up Howard street to the
tavern of William Baker and then ran ont
into the yard. William Crawford fol-
lowed him, and after passing through the door
leading into the yard, fred shot, the ball striking
left and the injured man was taken to st. Mary 5
Hospital, where his wounds were attended to- This
morning he doing WELL but the physician in
charge would not certify to his being out OF danger
William Crawford, IL is SAID, had warrant for the
arrest of Sharkey, and only struck ana shot him
when IL was rendered necessary. Sergeant Hess, of
of George Crawford, on Trenton avenue near Wood
street, ana succeeded in capturing him i'm neigh
bor's house, where, it is alleged, lie had secreted
himself. William, at o'clock, woke up Alderman
Helms, and delivered himself into custody. The
magistrate committed him for a further hearing
Both George and William will be at the Central sta
