Attacked by Them.
Patroiman Mckenzie, OF the Thirty second pre-.
cinct police, was found by Ofncer Quintard, of the
same precinct, lying on the sidewalk in ll7tn
street, near st. Nicholas avenue, at early hour
yesterday morning in an apparently unconscious
and dangerous condition. 1t was the hour f0r
changing the men, and Quintard had got to the
usual point to relieve his comrade Not md

post without being aole to discover him, and was

the left wrist. Quintard summoned assistance and
sent intelligence OF what had happened to the sta
ton house. An ambulance was promptly SUM-
moned and the wounded policeman was conveyed
TO the Ninety, ninth street hospital There he lay
all day yesterday lnseDsble, without the power OF
ner OF his assault. Captain speight remained near
elesm Of Intelligence that would direct his re. re-
searches for the murdeiOus and cOwardly assall-
almost hopeless task, and fears were ente rtained
that Mckenzie would pass away without giving
any any tran M Of the mystery. adding another to the

suffering .policemans mind and remained
there just long enough to enable him to repeat
to Captain Speight some part Of the story.

Of returning intelligence, be SAID party OF
drovers had met and beat him. Tnis he after
wards corrected wnen fully sensible, and said
that while going over his post and when in the
act OF trying the doors OF some OF the residences

he came suddenly upon batch OF burglars. They
were in the act OF prylng open door lock with
Impements and he at once arrested two OF them
without giving them time TO recover from their
surprise, he started Tor the station house in 152d
street and Tenth avenue. Seeing he had long
lonely distance to travel and not much chance or
being able to secure help, some companions OF the
thieves VINO were secreted near the house made q
sudden attack upon him. He retained possession
OF his prisoners as long as possible, but finally
received q blow on the head rrOm a short club in
tie hands OF one OF the rescung party and fell
unconscious to the sidewalk. They all he supposed,
then escaped. Alter getting this news Captain
Speight hastened to the station. and forming a
squad OF men In plain dress sent them out to hunt
the town for the thieves. Mckenzie, though still
in dangerous state, was improving last night,
and hopes are entertained OF his recovery. The
effort OF relating the occurrence was so iatigung
that the poor fellow Immediately after swOoned
away. He bears most excellent reputation in

Reported Rescue of Charley Ross.

tFrom the Reading tPa.) Eagle July 1871
On Thursday night Chief Cullen received two tele.
grams, one from Allentown and the other from
East Pennsylvania junction, that suspicious gen.
ueman was on board the train from Allentown
with child supposed to be the little fellow Lieu.
tenant Lotz, Sergeant Kissinger and Oficer Moore
were at the depot when the New York train or
rived, at quarter past ten, and investi-
gated the matter, but the child did not
seem to answer the description Of the one
stolen. This morning telegram was received
from Pittsburg to the effect that the party above
alluded to had been arrested In that city. It Is
not believed here that the parties In custody are
the proper ones.
later telegram received states that the man
navlng the boy IN charge confessed that the boy
was Charley Ross. From the nature OF things
there Is very little reliance to be placed on this
report.
1t Is alleged now by Reading Official that the
BOY examined by the Reading police at the outer
depot was not the one the telegram referred to,
put that another boy was kept in sight, while
Cnarley boss was covered up somewhere on one
OF the seats In the car. II Is also stated that
Charley Ross curls we're cut of at Allentown.
There are various reports in Reading this morn
ing, and we give them for what they are worth.
