Constitutional Convention of this State
the boundary question was the most

somehow seemed To indicate The iornIa-
ton of Il State line much further west
than that finally adopted. which WAS
agreed 10 as Il compromise. UpOn the
admission Of the State. Congress left
the matter open to the further cOnSid-
Grafton of the Legislature. Since, how

SERIOUS ASSAULT.

Ante-Mortcm Statement Of the Injured
Man.
On Wednesday John Bergman, OF No. 9S6 Secon0
avenue, and Henry Gallus Wirtn, living at No. 252
East Fifty y-sec0nd street, had some trouble near
the residence OF the latter, after which Wirth
tered q saloon and sat down at table. Bergman
followed and, as charged, coming up behind Wrth,
seized him by the neck, knocked his head against
the table three times in rapid succession.
beside striking him repeatedly on the
back Of the head with his fist thus re-
ducing his victim to unconsclousness. The
latter has twice experienced great pain in his head
and nausea OF the stomach. The attending
physicians seem to think the life OF their patient
may be In danger. and accordingly notified C0rO-
ner Kesser TO take his ante mortem statement,
which was done. Wirth says he gave no cause for
the assault, but states that he was formerly in
Bergman's employ, but entered the service OF
another. taking some OF his assatlants patrons
with him. This probably Is the secret OF tho
matter.
verdict was rendered against Bergman. and
being arrested, the Coroner required him 10 give
bail to await the death or recovery OF Wlrth.
