Yesterday,s Homieldei-

About 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon,
John T. Glennon, an old resident of
Hamilton, was fatally stabbed in the ab-
domen, by a man named Ulysses ".
Hutchinson. There was no previous
feud existing between the parties, as far
as we can learn, and the act was one of
cool and instant determination. The
particulars, as circumstantiaHv as we
can gather Them. are as follows.
John L. Glennon Tor SANDY rs he
was generally called, from his complexion
and the color of his hair,) has been at
tached to Jack Perry's saloon. in a gen
eral capacity, from the time of its
opening. He was a quiet, harmless.
though a physically powerful man.
About 3 O'Clock yesterday afternoon he
was proceeding through the narrow
passage leading off from the saloon, with
an armful of empty bottles. Huichin-
son, who is said to have been on a spree
Tor several days, was in the passage,
and blocking up the way. Glennon told
him to get OF of the passages; but he
evidently failed 10 comply with the de-
mand. being snrllly intoxicated. Glen
non then showed him ont of the back
door, into The yard, still with the bottles
III his arms. Jherenpon Hutchinson
drew a long knife, and MS 0lennon drop
ped all but one of the bottles, with which
he hit the former over the head, Hutch
inson plunged the weapon into his alb
domen, making n fearful wound, from
which the bowels protrnded. The slayer,
on rushing at Glennon, said that no
id son OF a b-h should put him ont
OF the house-or words to that effect.
Glennon was taken into n room and
placea on a bed, suffering excrueiating
pain from the mortal stab. Surgeons
were at once summoned. and they did nil
IN their power to ease the pain, hut had
no hope of saving the WITHIN. whose in-
jury WAS beyond the reach Of their mt.
Hutchinson was Immediately arrested
and lodged in the City Prison; but sub
sequently he was transferred to the
County Jail. He Is a sport and has
been in White Pine for about fifteen
months. He formerly resided in Mon
tana.
The victim of this tragedy. was a New
Yorker, and aged about 30. He was a
pressman by trade; but about the time
OF the Frazer river excitement. he went
to British Columbia from San Francisco.
He returned to that city some years
after, and opened n saloon called the
Eagle, on Broadway. Falling in this, he
returned to British Columbia. and was
among the early Cariboo miners. From
there he went to Montana and Idaho,
from which latter I, rritory he came
here ia March 1869. He has also lived
in Virginia, in this State.

When it WAS disco vered that G~lennon's
wound would probably result fatally. Mr..
". W. Hobart was sent for. to take his
statement IN eJirfaiS. He said in sub
stance that his asslilant was drunk, and
living on the back door step. very much
in the WAY. That when he came along
with the bottles he told him to leave sew
eral times; that then he showed him with
his foot. and Hutchinson fell over into
the yard; that he got mp and made for
him. Glennon, who hit him over the
hend with Il bottle. lie was not certain
whether be was stabbed before he struck
with The bottle; but thought he was stab

very serious. The knife entered the
