Two MEN NEARLY KILLED.-Early yes
terday morning two men were found on
lumber pile on Delord. near Franklin street,
by the New basin, both insenslbie from
wounds they must have received but short
time before they were discovered. One is
named Henry Schultz and the other
Thomas Murphy, both laboring men, known
at the first precinct police station, they
having been regular dodgers there last win
ter. Schultz was lying about twenty steps
from Murphy, and by his side was ten
pound rock, on which was blood. His skull
was broken and the brain barred above the
right temple, wound from which he can
never recover.
By Murphy's side was billet of wood,
also blood stained. His head had been
badly beaten, so seriously that it is doubt
full if he can recover. At first it was sup.
posed that they had been beaten and robbed
by assassins, but that theory is contradicted
by the fact that the men were very poor,
possessing nothing Of sufficient value to
induce robbers to attack them. A detective
looked after the case, and his conclusion is
that Schultz and Murphy had slept on the
lumber, and during the night quarreled
about some tritling matter and finally came
to desperate blows. If they had valuabies
they must have stolen them. The police
sent both men to the Charity Hospital,
where surgeons considered their cases as
really serious.
