The free fight on Lafayette avenue was trans
ferred to the municipal court yesterday morn
ing. Dorsey, Quinn and Garner appeared. The
injured man Brown was not present, and when
a policeman was sent to the city hospital for
him it was found that he had taken himself off
to parts unknown.
The witnesses first called for the prosecution
were Scheibe the landlord, and John Keyle the
bar man who both seemed to try to tell what
they did not know, the former evidently trying
to throw all the blame on Brown. He knew
little but supposed much, and concluded that
Brown smashed his own head as well as cut his
own hand.
Mr.. Edwards was right royal witness and
graphically described the fight.
There is no doubt they we're all as Edwards
designated them gentlemen" In the absence
of Brown the case was held over, the landlord
with short memory and little observation going
bail for Dorsey who had to leave town on his
train or lose his situation.
