FOUGHT IN A POLICE WAGON.
Two Prisoners Turned on a Patrol
man and Tried to Escape.
He Was the Only Officer on Hand,
but His Club Was a Trump.

Officer Hughes told Justice Steers in
the Lee Avenue Court. Williamsburg,
to-day that John Legano was the live
Hest drunkard he had ever handled. Lee
gano was fined $40, which he paid.
The prisoner. who says he is drug
clerk. and lives at CSC De Kalb avenue,
was picked up at Park avenue last night
very much the worse for wear.
He was quiet until escorted to the pa
troll wagon, and then he started in to
thrash Hughes. In this he was assisted
by another prisoner named John Nc
Cabe, and, as the officer was all alone
in the wagon, the driver being busy at
tending to his horses, 1t was a fight OF
two against one.
Legano had IA billy In his pocket, and
he endeavored to strike the officer with
It, while at the same time McCabe tried
to climb over the side of the wagon.
Hughes parted the blow Legano d.
rected at him, and then hit McCabe over
the head with his club. knocking him
back.
The one blow was all that McCabe re-
tom of the wagon. There was plenty of
hight left in Legano. however. and he
struggled with the officer all the way
to the Vernon avenue station.
BY the time they arrived there Nc
Cabe had revived, but Hughes grabbed
his two prisoners tightly and held them
until several OF the reserves came out
OF the station to his assistance.
officer Hughes was complimented this
morning for not having let his prisoners
escape. He Is a little man, but one of
the best athletes on the force.
