THE CUTTING CASE.
VIM. Koran was brought up on a remand
from the 18th instant on charge of assault
with deadly weapon on q. J. Agnew.
DIR. Tucker was sworn, and testified that
he had been called in to see Mr.. Agnew on
the night of the 18th instant. He found
that Agnew had fractured the bones of the
right thumb, and was also cut in the pit of
the stomach and in the side. The wound
in the stomach in front was a small one,
and had been inflicted by pointed weapon,
like pen-knife. It bled freely. The other
wound was a glaneing cut, quite jagged.
The witness considered the instrument with
which the wounds were inflicted dangerous
to life.
Several other witnesses testified to having
seen fight between Koran and Agnew on the
evening of the 18th instant, at the Ha
waiian Hotel. They described how they
saw Koran insult Agnew in the hotel, and
heard Agnew tell Koran that if he would go
outside he would slap his face for him. The
two, with q number of others, went out and
hot he
heard Koran say that he would run some
thing into Agnew as far as he could, but
did not see any weapon in Horan's hand.
II. J. Agnew described how the quarrel
and fight commenced, and said that he did
not know that he was cut until after he
had reached his home. He said he felt
sick, but thought it was from the pain of
his thumb, which he had broken by striking
the wall instead of Horan's head. He said
that he had not been drinking, and had not
had any previous quarrel with Koran.
Witnesses for the defense were called, who
swore that they did not see any weapon in
Horan's hand at the time of the fight. They
also swore to Horan's having borrowed
their knives on different occasions.
There being other witnesses to call for
the defense, who could not be found at
present, the defendant was remanded to the
10th instant.
