Joseph Mcguire of No. 6OS South Front

groggery, Seventh and Relief streets, and
Charlie the Swede," a runner for sailor
boarding house. Last night about II

the saloon pavement with a hose, when
the Swede made his appearance and
without a word of warning plunged
the blade of a clasp knife into the bar
keepers back. Mcguire fell to the pave

on rapid run towards the Delaware.
Reaching the Pine street wharf, he stopped
long enough to cast aside his hat and the
bloody knife, and then plunged headlong
into the water. r. Mcbride, the watch
man there, witnessed the act, and raised an
alarm. In the meantime the Swede was
swimming in the direction of Delaware. His
strength, however, soon failed and he
finally disappeared. This morning his
lifeleSs body was discovered not far from
the spot where he jumped overheard.
Mcguire lies in dangerous condition. The
wound is five inches long and very deep.
