The residents of Rockaway Beach, L. l., are
in great excitement over the fight between Dr.
W. P. Phillco and John P. Corning, wealthy
citizen, which occurred Saturday night. Or.
Phillco is-probably fatally injured.
The cause of the trouble between Corning and
Philco is said to be Corning's objections to the
attentions which he claims Dr. Phillco has
insisted on paying to his wife. DR.. Phillco is
thirty-two years of age and recently married
Margaret Millen of Brooklyn. He lives in a
pretty residence on Division avenue. He
formerly kept drug store in conjunction with
his practice and during that time he had serious
trouble with Corning.
The affair has caused great deal Of talk, but
the attack Of Corning upon Phillco does not
seem to cause any surprise, it is said that
Corning has often threatened ''to do" Phillco,
and trouble has, accordingly, been looked for
There is much indignation against Corning,
as they claim the assault was a cowardly one
Phillco is small man Of slight build. while
Corning is fully six feet tall and weighs $50
pounds. He is said to be very quarrelsome
when under the influence Of liquor.
Corning was arraigned before Judge Smith
yesterday charged with attempted murder and
was held under $4,000 bonds until today.

George Ditmore, has been refused new trial
By the court of appeals, nov in session, and will
III few days receive his sentence, now that
his last effort TO escape the gallows has been
failure. He pleaded jurisdiction, as did
Guiteau. who assassinated President Garfield
Stout was tried and convicted of murder in
Hartford county court, TO which place his case
was removed. 1t was then taken to the court of
appeals with the above result. The crime for
which Stout viii pay the penalty was q horrible
one and occurred on Sunday evening, Feb
ruary l, near Chesapeake City, this county.
George Ditmore aged seventy-fve years. who
resided on a small farm with his wife had re-
tired for tie night, leaving his wife down stairs
to attend to the fire. short time after he had
retired his wife startled by the cry of
murder" With lamp in hand she started TO
go to his assistance and when half way up the
stairs she received heavy blow on the head
which knocked her senseless. Ditmore was
afterward found by some neighbors living on
the room floor. with his face crushed in from
the eyes to the mouth. He was removed to a
hospital in Philadelphia, where. after suffering
terrible agony for month, died. His wife re-
covered. Suspicion pointed to Alfred Stout.
who had previously worked on the farm He
was traced to the home of hi. sister, and when
arrested made no resistance. Robbery was sup
posed to have been the motive. as Stout knew
that Dltmore kept his money about the house.
The club used by Stout was a large board about
one yard long.
