bers of + is Craft

Last night about 10 Is o'clock
shooting affray took place - the
Pantheon Saloon, which is situated
on the corner of Fort and Hotel
streets. In the melee a native po-
iceman named John Kailikole re-
ceived gunshot wound in his left
shoulder. Three men named re-
spectively Stone, Wagner and Wish
ard, all of whom are members of
the regular forces of the Govern
ment were arrested. Stone is sup
posed to be the man who did the
shooting.
From an eyewitness the follow
ing facts were gathered Some
minutes previous to the shooting, a
stableman named Fox, who had
been drinking considerably, wanted
to fight with the bar-keeper, He
would not fight so Fox turned his
attention to another man named
Gallagher. Gallagher and Fox
are friends, and the first-named
grabbed the stableman and
told him to be quiet. Fox
still remained belligerent and
in a scuffle Gallagher threw him to
the floor and held him there. At
this moment the three men who
were afterwards arrested, with a
companion entered the place to
get drinks. They saw the man on
the floor, so they interfered.
In few moments the policeman
who was shot, followed closely by
two others entered the place and
whipped out their clubs and COM
menced to WELD them right and
left. The witness says that the
white men requested the officers to
desist but they paid no attention
ton to the entreaties of the men.
One man received a whack that
sent him Keeling to the floor. An
other man, supposed to be Stone,
backed up to a swinging door
which leads to an adjoining billi-
ard room, and the three officers
then confined their attention to
him.
When one was clubbing him, he
pulled his pistol and blazed away
at the officer. The first shot was
followed in quick succession by
two others.
The policeman was Immediately
conveyed to the Station House,
where he was treated by DR.. Peter
son. The ball entered the flesh
just below the left shoulder, and
ploughed itself completely through
the mans body. The ball dropped
from his undershirt when that gar
ment was taken off by the doctor.
In the meantime other officers
were sent to the saloon and ar
rested the three men mentioned.
The fourth man disappeared. At
the Station, where the men were
searched, Stone had revolver
with three chambers empty. A
gun was also found on Wagner.
The third man was unarmed.
MINOR INCIDENTS.
Last evening, about the time the
shooting affray took place, a man
named Fischer was brought to the
Station by two native policemen.
The poor fellow was covered with
blood, which flowed from cut in
his forehead.
Fischer is the man who rescued
the two American sailors yesterday
by taking them in his boat. The
boat-boys did not like his action,
so two of them laid in wait for him
in Nuuanu street and then violently
assaulted him. To add insult to
injury, the officers hauled him off
to jail.
During the evening two respect
able-iooklng Chinese dropped into
the Station, one of whom was bleed
ing like stuck pig; the other had
a black eye. They said they lived
on King street, near the bridge.
They were assaulted by a native
who was trying to steal some paper
lanterns which were hung outside
of their store. They tried to catch
the thief, and in doing so, each was
struck by heavy glass bottle
which was in the natives hand.
! The native was arrested
