ATTEMPTED TO KILL HIS FATHER
There was considerable excitement on
Main street, near Twenty-third, in the
vicinity of Kraft's barber shop, yesterday
morning. The particulars are these as
near as we could learn;
George Kraft, who is employed at
KRAFT & STEMS barber shop, is in the
habit of getting upon sprees, much to the
sorrow Of his father. Yesterday morning
George was very drunk and while his
father was demonstrating with him, he
became very much excited and ran for a
Ratchet to assault the old man. He was
in the act of striking, when some by
ISLANDERS, who had collected, interfered,
and undoubtedly saved the father from a
terrible wound, if not death
Young Kraft retreated next door
and drew knife threat
ening to kill anybody who ..attempt-
ed 10 arrest him. Officers Birch and
Webb soon put in an appearance and
George took to his heels, and the officers
in hot pursuit. The officers got up with
their man on the river bank. When
hunted down, he showed some signs OF
resistance. but his brother John, with the
assistance of Officer Webb's pistol leveled
at him he surrendered. In the excitement
George was struck by one of the police
men, and at which John demonstrated.
For thus interfering Officer Birch struck
John and ordered him under arrest.
Both the Kraft men were taken to the
lookup. John says he intends to bring
suit against Officer Birch for assault.
The merits of the case will be developed
at the Police Court this morning.
