mel was q sutton for the hand of the beauti-
full widow. and only q week ago the report
becsme current that they had been married
in Cincinnati. The rumor, however. both
parties pronounced false, but just exactly
how much their denial was worth may be

RAN AMUCK WITH A PISTOL
Mad and Reckless Onslaught Upon
Humanity by q Potato eddler.
Efforts to Shoot James l.. Reach and Every
body Else in Sight-Caught After
Hot Chase.

A chapter from q border DIANA was en-
acted on South Delaware street yesterday
afternoon. about 4 o'clock. A wild. I'M
tanned potato peddler and q conjunction or
q Smith & Wesson revolver. and q gener-
Gus load of red .pizen" caused it.
William Wilson has been In the employ OF
James L. Reach, commission merchant. as
Q peddler. Yesterday morning Wilson got
very angry at Reach over some trivial mat
ter about the repair of Q wagon, and also
some accounts which Wilson had not yet
turned in. In the afternoon the discussion
was renewed. and Wilson threatened TO
shoot Reach, and the latter jokinRly told
him to take som of the firms money and
buy a revolver to do it with. 1t seemed to
strike Wilson just right. for he
returned shortly with the CUR.
Reach promptly landed his fist in
Wilson's face, and the latter began to
shoot. Two shots went in Keach's direc-
tlon. and then Wilson started down the
street. He fired point blank at an old lady
who fell to tine walk in sheer fright. though
got in his way. but luckily escaped
the bullet that was sent at him.
By this time Merchant policeman Walker
and Superintendent Colbert, attracted by
the noise, gave chase tn the celiigerent
Wilson, who turned west on Georgia
street. sending two shots in the
direction OF the officers. When they
rounded the corner he was half a square
away. where he had coolly stopped and
was reloading his revolver. He was chased
to the vicinity of Parrot Il Taggart's
bakery, where he was intercepted by de-
t~ectlves kaehn and Doherty. Singing out
The latter and placing his back to the wall,
he yelled: "Ive got you now. you
- freshman. and I'm going to kill
you. If it's the last thing j do" Bang. bang,
wentthe revolver, almost in DOherty's face,
while he raised il again and snapped il at
Kaehn, who was advancing from
the other side. The three Off
GERS bounced on him and made him
q prisoner before he could do IN more
damage. 1t is fortunate that he was q
poor marksman, and still more so hat none
of his shots took effect in human bodies
not immediately connected with
the affair. for the streets were
rowdU at the time. Al the station-house

and was only prevented by the men about.
who overpowered him. 10 his pocket was
found q fresh box of fifty csrtrid ges, ont of
which ten were gone, while one still re-
manned In the revolver. showing that he
had fired nine ahOts in all. He was slated
for assault with intent to kill.

NO WONDER HE WAS LICKED
Sullivan Says He Saw Six Corbetts in
The First Round of the Great Fight,
"0ne of Those Edwin Booth Fellows Now"
However, and Is Coming Money.

BosToN, Oct. 3.-John L. Sullivan has
startled his friends in this city by an
nouncing his intention of challenging Cor
bett to fight again. He was seen by a re-
porter in the d~rsssinG-room before the play
began last night and had this TO say: II
am saving money with u r~esolute determi-
nation to challenge Corbett to fight again
and give me q chance to win back the
money that was robbed from me In New
Orleans.
by robbed, do you mean that you were
druggedf"
'"There was something wrong. / Nm not
making any direct charges just now, but
that / was not right l we'll know. After
the first round i could see half a dozen Cor
belts. | don't believe COrbett nor any one
twenty-one rounds without being hit.
There was q scheme afoot to break what
seemed to the pool-room men q dead-sure
combinstion-McAuliffe, Dixon and Sulll-
van-and / was the one selected to be
thrown down."
One of Those Edwin Booth Fellows Now.
NEW YORK, Oct. 3.-The World will print
the following: THE statement which
John L. Sullivan is said to have made to q
reporter in Boston that he intended to
challenge Jim Corbett again, and that he
believed his friends had not treated him
fairly in the last contest, caused consider
cradle talk in sporting circles yesterday.
A World reporter called on the big pugIlist
from the Hub at the Vanderbilt Hotel,
IN the afternoon. Sullivan said that he
had made no such statementfor pu utilization.
Il am doing pretty we'll these days without
fightlDR,' said he. 'and IL everything turn6
out as l expect it will, the probabilities
are that | will w $4,000 in bank at the
enc of the present season. l wish Corbett
no harm and hope he will make . lot of
money"
The Herald will also print ON interview
with Sullivan in which the ex-champlon
said: "Of course, i have some peculiar
ideas about the causes which led to my de-
feat. but for the present / prefer that they
remain untold. The time may come, how
ever, when | will see fit to talk. and when
i do some people will be greatly surprised.
! do not believe In making excuses for my
defeat"
DO you intend to fight Corbett againf"
was asked.
Well replied the ex-champion slowly,
Il will not tight him at present, though L
may do SO at some later day. Pm one of
those Edwin Booth fellows, or rather an
actor now. I'm going TO stick to acting as
long as l can, and after i am through with
the stage there Is no telling exactly who
will fight"
champion Jill" COrOetb was surprl6ou
when he heard that Sullivan would prob
ably make another match with him. as he
believed "the man from Boston" had for
saken the ring forever. The Californian
said, however. If sullivan was dissatisfied
with their battle at New Orleans and de-
sired to fight him again, he would give
John l.. the preference over Mitchell, jack
son OF Goddard. He said he felt confident
that If he met Sullivan again the result
would be the Same as In the Olympic Club
q month ago.
