runner, who lives at lib Lombard street.
Grath was taken to the Pennsylvania
Hospital and he is not expected to live.
FELTON, was locked up In cell at the
Third dis rict station house.
Officers Beltz and ABhmore, of the
Third district, who were star ding at the
corner Of Second and Lombard streets,
heard cries Of Murder" coming from
down Lombard street at o O'Clock. They
ran down the street and were met by an
excited young man, who told them that a
man had had his throat cut at 113 Lom-
bard street. They hurried 20 the ace
and found FELTON, at his gate coolly
smoking pipe. They rushed in the
yard and found Grath lying on the
ground near grape arbor, with blood
gushing from deep wound in his neck.
In his hand he clu ched heavy revolver,
which was loaded. He was quickly dis
armed and Officer BeltZ asked him who
cut him. Between his groans Grath
man aged to exclaim: "Felton did It "
While Officer Beltz ran for patrol
box at Second and South streets officer
Ashmore placed Felto under arrest. He
denied having done the cutting and pro-
fessed ignorance Of the affair. When the
patrol wagon arrived Grath was placed
inside and driven rapidly to the Penn
sylvania Hospital, while Officer Ash
more took FELTON, to the Third district
station house and locked him up.
Mrs. FELTON, says that early In the after.

walked in with a revolver in Que hand
and knife In the other. He struck her
In the face with his fist, She did not see
her husband cut Grath.
About twelve O'Clock Grath's condition
was such as led the doctors at the Penn
sylvania Hospital to suppose that he had
but short time to live, and Magistrate
List was sent for to take his deposition.
FELTON, was also brought up from the sta
tion house. In his statement Grath said
that FELTON, had stabbed him and identi
fed FELTON, as the man. FELTON, wa
