sixteen shots Exchanged Before the Fell
Is Overpowered.


PHILADELPHIA, May 14.-Charles, alias
Reddy Beasley, a desperate character and
associate of thieves, Policeman Iseminger
nd Watchman Hanley. colored, ex-
Changed sixteen shots early yesterday
morning with the result that Beasley was
safely lodged in jail. Watchman Hanley
was passing Twelfth street and Snyder
avenue with his dog. He heard noise
in the yard of Fernand Martini, saloon
keeper, and crossing there, overheard one
man caution another to keep quiet. The
speedily come out with yelp caused by
a kick. In All instant the gate was thrown
| open and Beasley and a companion
rushed out and up the street to an alley,
which they entered and scaled fence.
By this time Policeman Iseminger ap-
peared on the scene. Iseminger started
toward the upper end of the alley with
revolver drawn, when Beasley dashed out.
Both officers started in pursuit. The des-
perado turned and discharged two shots
at the policemen, who promptly returned
the fire. Hanley tried to head off the
man, when the latter shot at him. The
watchman responded in like manner, and
this was followed by fusillade of shots.
The chase continued to Cantrell street.
where Beasley entered house in course
of construction.
In an instant the officers were at his
heels. He again drew his revolver, but
it failed to discharge. Through the
house and out to an open lot fled the fu-
gitiYe, but lie was not fleet enough for
Hanley, and in an instant he fell beneath
a club blow on the head.
Beasley was up in an instant and grap
pied with Hanley, but was soon overpow-
cred with the assistance of Iseminger.
On the grouud was found revolver which
contained single bullet. Beasley's com.
panion made good his escape, After the
prisoner had been locked up, the officers
returned to Martlni's saloon and discovered
that the kitchen door had been jimmied
open. A small jimmy and some wooden
wedges were lying in the yard. The pris-
oner said that he came from Scranton
about a year ago. He was committed for
burglary and held in $4,000 bail for as
sault and battery with intent to kill.
Beasley is credited with having been a
brave soldier during the war, and he wears
a Grand Army badge AS Freddy"
Beasley, house breaker, he has been known
to the police for almost quarter of a Gen.
tury, but, strange to say, there is not
single conviction recorded against him.
Twenty years ago he, Matte Dunn, and
another criminal were arrested for house
robbery, but they escaped by cutting
their way out of police van on the way
to JAIL
