Jacksonville's Executive Dangerously
Hurt by the Marshal.

Jacksonville's Executive Dangerously
Hurt by the Marshal.
JACKSONVILLE, FLA, June 17.-This city
was thrown into the widest excitement this
afternoon over a report that Mayor
McQuaid had been murdered by City Mar
shall Virgins. An investigation showed
that Mayor McQuaid was badly injured by
a cowardly attack made on him by Marshal
Virgins, and at present be is lying very
low. For some time past Mayor McQuaid
and City Tax Collector Bisbee have been
reprimanding Marshal Virgins for neglect
of duty in not serving and executing war
rants against delinquent taxpayers. Mar
shall Virgins, smarting under these repri-
mands, mad vowed vengence on these two
officials, and to-day visited Collector
Bisbees Office and house. but, not finding
him, he went to Mayor McQuaid's
house and found the latter at dinner.
THE ASSAULT.
Requesting the mayor to come and visit
a cesspool, he walked down side street,
and, suddenly stepping back, he dealt the
mayor on the back of the head three terri
Bile blows with the butt end of revolver or
heavy club. The mayor fell instantly and
was covered with blood, and Marshal Wig
gins, believing him dead, darted back to
where he had his horse saddled, and has
fed into the woods, his horse, by the way,
being the fleetest animal in McMurray's
stable, he having secured it but a short
while before and left his own animal there.
FOUND wELTERING IN HIS BLOOD.
Passers-by discovered the mayor weter-
ing in his blood and gave an alarm, and aid
arriving the wounded man was carried
home. The doctors say the mayor is badly
hurt, but they cannot tell whether his
wounds are fatal. kilograms have been
sent all over the country to apprehend
Virgins, and if he is caught and the mayor
dies Virgins life will not be worth much.
Great indignation is expressed over the
