YESTERDAY MORNING some paperin small
fruit store opposite the Walker House caught
fite and an alarm was sent in The department
turned out in good shape and Chief Stanton the
hose cart and the engine were going down MAR
street in procession when farm wagon drew
up in front of the chief The latter was forced
TO run into the wagon or else stop and let thu
heavy hose cart run into him. He chose tn,
latter, aud in an instant there was crash. som,
flying spokes, and then the chief was seen t,
emerge from the tanGle. His wagon wa
wrecked and the tongue OF the hose cart wa
broken, while the chief was injured about tn,
back. The man who got in the way of the pro
ceSSion thereby causing the accident was ar
rested and had hearing before Judge Laney il
the afternoon, but was discharged Had a les
skillful driver than Mr.. Workman been on tn
hose cart the chief would probably not have es
capped SO fortunately.
LOUIS H. SCHARRER, who was beaten in tn
Walker house cafe at an early hour Frida,
morning, says the printed reports, espec aly
that of the Tines, do him great injustice. III
says that the fellows dec 5yed him into
private room in the cafe under false preteuse
and when in there accused him of maxim
statements that he had never uttered Whe1
he denied the charge, they jumped him a
stated. If half Of what Mr.. Scharrer saws b
true. the attack was both wicked and COW srdl
the city marshal seemed to realize when
complaint was made to him, but he stated tina
it would be useless to have the men arrested
as there would be the evidence of three a
against one. Mr. Scharrer is a stranger to us
but he carries with him evidence that his wor
, is to be relied upon. and we give his story
> the affair, which is not at all credtable to uh
place in which it occurred, nor the fellows VIII
attacked him in the manner they did The var
that complaint had been made against hir
by merchants to the effect that he was dealin
, in smuggled goods would seem to have orig
mated in The fertile brain of a newspaper serb
whose great ambition is to fill space.
