MIDDLE STREET IN AN UPROAK.
A Fight in Which . Razor and q Pistol
Wore Used-"Sfme' Roberts on
the Warmth.


the Warpath.
Yesterday afternoon Sine Roberts
who has the reputation, in Middle street,
of being a "bad coon'' got drunk, with
several of his friends In the evening about
6 O'Clock they paid visit to the Lion
Brewery saloon, on Middle street, which
is kept by c. Koehler, and asked for a
drink. The bartender, Charles Vogt, re-
fused to give the darkeys any beer. They
became very angry and Roberts ripped
and swore and pulled razor from his
pocket He walked up to the bar and
attempted to cut the throat of Vogt. The
latter was too quick for him, however, and
he jumped back and escaped unhurt.
Vogt then attempted to get the men
out of the saloon, but they refused to 90
and Conrad Koehler, a nephew of the pro-
prietor of the saloon came to his assist,
ance. The darkeys finally started to 60
and, while they were walking down the
stairs, Roberts drew a pistol, and
turning around, he fired at young
Koehler, who was standing above
him on the stairs. The ball struck him on
the jawbone, under the chin, and, glancing
off, grazed the cheek. His injuries,
which are not serious, were attended by
DIR. NJ. l.. Herr. Had this ball struck a
few inches lower it would have hit Koeh!er
in the neck and he would undoubtedly have
been fatally injured. After the darkeys left
the saloon, Roberts threw several stones
against the building, but no damage of any
was done by them. After the
row Roberts was arrested by Chief of Po-
lice Deichler. lie was taken before Alder
man DOnnelly, of the Seventh ward, who
him, in default of bail, to an
swer, at a hearing, two charges of assault
and battery with intent to kill, which
have been preferred against him by Vogt
and Koehler. William II. Rollins, another
co!ored man, who claims to have been as
saulted by Vogt while in the saloon, has
brought suit OF assault and battery
against him before Alderman Barr.

ed. There were also several bruises on the
