WIPE BEATERs ARRESTED. - Yesterday
Burke Sherwood, n fine looking able-bodled
white man Of apparently good education,
was brought before Justice Clark on the
charge Of beating his wife. Sherwood, 1t ap-
pears, Is q victim to intemperance, and not
withstanding the fact that but few months
ago he took a solemn pledge to abstain from
the use Of liquor, he has relaxed into his
old habits, and while drunk abused and beat
his wife shamefully.
In default OF security TO keep the peace,
he was locked up to await conveyance to the
work-house.
William Mnshall, n colored man, was be-
fore the same Justice yesterday, for beating
Ida Scholeld, white woman, who was
living with him as his wife In Graham's
alley, between Twelfth and Thirteenth and
c and d streets. II appears that they had
some words, when Marshall got up and beat
her over the head with bottle, cutting her
face and hands and also fracturing her skull.
This occurred on January 81. DR.. Lee hav-
ing been called found that her wounds were
most likely fatal, and had him arrested. He
was held for further hearing. The woman
| Is suffering intensely, being unable to move
hand or foot, while her head Is gashed In
three places, laying the skull bare in each
place. Yesterday afternoon Justice Clark
proceeded to the locality above mentioned,
and took the deposition ofthe women, who
II Is thought cannot survive her injuries.
Her statement corroborates that made above,
and proves the fact that she has been ILL.,
treated by Marshall for months.
Marshall is held at the Central guard
house to await the result of the injuries re-
| ceived by the woman Schofcld.
