Sunday night A. F. Strickland and
William Wilson had difficulty in Horri-
gan's clearinghouse, on Meal street, con-
corning conversation relative to the late

kee, etc. Whereupon the latter assailed
him with pocket-knife, and after telling
him TO the floor inflicted ten stabs, seven in
the back, one in the shoulder-blade, one be-
hind the ear, and one in the neck. Strickland
also kicked Wilson in the stOmac and would
have killed him on the spot had not man
named Phillips pulled him off of his VICTIM

the wounded and helpless man. Officers
Cheek and Homan arrested Strickland, and
lodged him in the stationhouse to await the
result of the injuries to Wilson, who, last night
was in a critical condition.
