M'CUE GOT ,'REvEN6E.
Fractured Saloon Keeper Kane'i
Skull With a Livingstone
Had a Grudse for Being Kept Out
Of the Liquor Stere.
Now He May Have TO Answer ,
Charge Of Murder.

John Kane, twenty-threc years old, a
saloon-keeper, living at ISL Seventh ave-
nue.. was struck in the head last night
with a paving-stone, hurled by John
McCuc, twenty-five years old, of 15
West Fifty-first street. Kane's skull is
fractured, and the doctors at Roosevelt
Hospital think he will die, as the result
of his injuries. McCue Is under arrest.
The assault took place in Kane's saloon,
at 149 West Fifty-first street.
McCue is a member of gang Of
roughs called The Talent" who make
their headquarters In West Fifty-f1rst
street, and who are accused of many
rvbberies and petty outrages.
McCue has been leading spirit of
"The Talent" The police say he is a
loafer, and was never known to work
except at odd jobs. His father, an hon
est, Woodworking laborer, has been
forced to put him out Of the house many
times.
McCue tried two years ago TO make
Kane's saloon a lounging place, but
Kane wouldn't have 1t. He threatened
then to do" Kane, and has had a

he would be avenged. His time came
last night.
He made a tour of the saloons in the
neghborhood last evening and, at 11.30
o'clock entered Kane's place.
As soon as Kane saw him he cried,
Now, you get out of here. I've told
you often enough not to come In"
We'll. III come in just the same"
said McCue.
Kane started from behind the bar with
the expressed intention Of putting Nc
Cue out of the place, and McCue re-
treated to the sidewalk. The street y
being repaired, and pile of cobble-
stones stood in front of the saloon. Nc,
Cue picked up one of these rocks weigh
Ing six pounds, and started back for the
saloon.

the tenement In which the saloon Is sit
his hand. He tried to argue with him.
Now, McCue," said he, don't go in
there again."
IN do six months to get even with
that man." McCue replied.
Young Hockter tried to restrain him.
See here" said McCue, "if you don't
let me go In there, I'll do you. -
McCue then dashed into the place, and
before Kane or the half-dozen custom
ers present knew what he intended, he
had hurled the paving stone. 1t struck
like log, without a word, and the

Kane was taken to Roosevelt Hospi-

B. Wirk, President of Ben Hur Mining
Company. who lives in Omaha, was shot
through both arms last night half a mile
this side of Victoria, and ]. M. Rossbery,
secretary Of the same company, who also
lives in Omaha, was shot in the neck.
Their assailants were q gang Of six men.
who fired over thirty shots at them from
Winchester rifles. Wirk and Rossbery
had been down to Lawrence examining
some mining property and started home
after dark.
They had travelled about a mile when
they were attacked. 1t appears to be

an attempt to assassinate Sheriff
Bowers. of this county, who has been
active of late in making arrests of min
ers implicated in the Cripple Creek war,
and these two men were mistaken for
the Sheriff and his deputy.
