A KNIFE WOUND.
A Union Street Excitement Last Evening-A Vigorous Chase and the ArraSt Of Paa0uaIe FUmniO.

A Union Street Excitement Last
 Evening-A Vigorous Chase and the
 Arrest of PasquaIe Funnfo.
 Loud cries for help in feminine voice mingled with curses startled the residents of the lower end of Union street about 6 o'clock last night. The hundreds of Italians who were summing themselves and displaying their gaudy attire to the public rushed to the large rambling uin at 15 Union street, from whence the cries proceeded. When they surged into the yard in the rear of the house they found several Italiens rolling on the ground At last one of the combatants dashed through the crowd toward young woman who was bleeding profusely from wounds in the arm, fourishing knife. He could not reach her, however, and jumping over a fence escaped into the street from an adjoining yard, hotly pursued by several men. When the pursued reached the corner of Union and Fair streets about 200 Italians (men and boys) joined in the chase. The fugi- tive turned into Fair street, waving the knife about his head, threatening to kill who ever attempted to stop him. At the corner of Fair and Priudle streets he was knocked down by young man and captured and ar rested by Patrolman Selleck, who had heard the disturbance. His name was entered on the police slate as Pasquale Funnio.
 Pasquale, his sister-in-law, Francesca Fun nio, and several other Italians with unpro- nounceable names observed the Sabbath by drinking poor beer and making love in the back yard of their residence. The more beer they drank the more excited they be, came in their love making until with an cath Pasquale jumped from his seat and drawing knife sought to plunge it into his sister-in laws breast. She warded off the murderous blow and received the stab in the arm above the elbow He made another attempt to kill her, cutting her hand. Francesca's shrieks alarmed the neighbors, who ran to her as sistance. Dr. Mailhouse attended the in, iured woman and found that the wounds were not dangerous.
