South Chicago Policemen Have Hard
Fight with q Crazy Man.
CHICAGO, Aug. IL. Two South Chicago
policemen had a desperate struggle with
a crazy negro ON housetop. The mans
name is Nathan Whitfield. He at one
time conducted a saloon at Lightwood
and Strand streets. He became violent
and ran from one street to another,
striking at persons who were in his way,
AT Ninetieth and Strand streets there is
q vacant house. Whitfield, who is big,
stalwart fellow, put his shoulder against
the front deer and it fiew off its hinges.
He ascended to the roof, and swinging
himself over the edge, grasped the cor
nice and moved hand over hand across
the front of the three-story building. By
this time a crowd of 200 or 800 persons
stood in the street watching his strange
actions. Officers Mcnamara and Rowan
rushed up through the house and climbed
out on the roof through a skylight Then
terrific battle ensued. The crazy man
wrenched the club from Officer Rowan's
hands and flung it into the street. He
then struck Mcnamara blow in the
face which staggered him. Officer
Rowan grabbed the man3 around the
waist and tried TO throw him down. In
less than half minute the officers coat
was torn from his person. Whitfield
had caught the garment by the tails and
split it up the back to the collar. He
was at last overpowered and taken to the
station, where he had to be strapped
down.

Old Case Against the Consumers Trust De-

Sentence-Fined for Contempt.

The Consumers Gas Trust Company lost
the case in which it figured as defendant,
in the Supreme Court. and of which James
L. Evans. guardian, ETC.. was the plaintiff.
The gas company won the case in the
Hamilton County Circuit Court and the
plaintiff carried it to the States highest

down the opinion, cites the his
tory of case in the Pennsylvania
Supreme Court in which the same
questions were brought up, and for which
the same decision was rendered. Judge
Mcbride maintained that In the case of the
failure for a lessee to perform his part of q
contract, 1t does not necessarily make the
lease void, unless the lessor desires it. as
such stipulation is inserted wholly for the
benefit of the lessor. The contract with
the plaintiff. 1t is held. was provision al
upon the success OF the defendant to find
gas at the place drilled. Upon this ground
the court believes that the plaintiff is at
least emitted 10 nominal damages.
This ends an old case which grew out of
a contract with the gas company to drill
for gas in Hamilton county.
