present. it would appear, except Swede who can
not speak word OF English, and his account Of the
transaction Is mudifed considerably through the
medium OF q mudned interpreter. 1t would ap-
pear, from the imperfect Information In the hands
OF the police, that Kel came from Missouri about
four or I'VE weeks ago and obtained work
with Mr.. N. b. Harwood, on Third street. A
short time after his arrival he was informed
that man named Albert Shuliz, a carpenter. who
worked for Henry Ashley, had spoken disrespect-
fully of mis- (Kers) sister, and Kiel became so
asperated on hearing IT that he made several threats
OF vengeance against Shultz II he did not retract
what he had said. Last evening Kiel started from
his boarding house, on Robert street, between Sew
enth and Eighth, with the avowed intention OF
seeking an explanation from Shultz, who lives
near De Con Corlies sash factory, in the vicinity
OF Trout Brook. II would appear that the parties
met somewhere In the vicinity OF the Seventh
street bridge, where they got into an alteration
resulting in blows in the course OF which KEEL re-
ceved blow in the face which sweled his upper
lip. Then he drew his knife, stabbinq his victim
not less than times in the breast and shout

dangerous OF the wounds. The Swede gave the
alarm and KEEL effected his escape, all Efforts to
discover his whereabouts up to the present having
