OUR NEIGHBORING CITY.
A Saloon Row-Ths Hugger Caught at Lasi-A
Fire in a Coal Mins-Highway Rob
bery-Ststl Plant Accident

Jesse Moore, young painter OF Deli
aire, was the victim OF a saloon row IN
that city, Sunday evening, which may
cost him his life. The particulars OF
the affair, as far as can be learned, are
as follows: Ross Borham and NICK
Hirsh were in Harry Bealle's saloon, on
Union street, shaking dice with the bar
keeper, Austin. Jesse Moore was
standing at the bar at the time, anu
dispute arising about the dice, ne was
appealed to for decision, whlch ne
gave in favor of Austin. This offended
Borham and Hirsh and they set upon
Moore. using a handy-biliiy or some
blunt weapon. Moore is terribly oeaten'
his head is mass Of bumps and bruises,
his eyes are closed, his nose mashed nat
and great cash on his lower
lip that required several stitches
to bring together. The affair caused
number of people to gath
or In front of the saloon, and
Jack Gallagher ran In aud took Borham
and Hirsh away from Moore, or he would
doubtless have been very much worse
hurt. Borham and Hirsh then ran out
the back door and intercepted Austin
at the gate. They struck him on the
head with the weapon thew had, knock
ing him down. Neither Borham nor
Hirsh made an effort to escape. They
were afterwards arrested by Officer
Johnston. They were brought before
the Mayor last evening and pleaded not
guilty to the charge OF assault, and
their trial will be heard this morning
at nine o'clock.
Harry Bealle will be required to an
swer to the charge of keeping gamo-
ling establishment and to keeping open
his saloon on Sunday.

HERR MOST COwHIDED.
Emma Goldman. Anarchist Bergman's
Friend, Applies the Lash.

New YORK, December 19.-Emma
Goldman, the friend of Bergman, who
the Anarchist who shot II. c. Frick,
cowhided John Most last night as he
was about to begin his lecture to the
German and Hebrew Anarchist groups
in Odd Fellows Hall. Most, it is said,
attacked Miss Goldman in his paper.
The quarrel is Of long standing and has
assumed increased bitterness since the
shooting of Frick, which Most discoun-
tenanced. The woman, together with
a wing Of the Anarchist organization,
holds that Bergman is hero and split
has followed. The affair caused con-
siderable excitement and is likely to de-
velop further trouble.
