A Former Annapolitan Roughly Handled
by baltimore Ronghs.

by Baltimore Roughs.
PatroIman. q. NJ. Taylor, OF the Bal
timore police force, was pretty roughly
handled Yesterday evening while at
tempting to arreast three men, at the
corner Of Ashland avenue and Castle
street. Baltimore. Mr.. Taylor had ar
rested one of tire party, man named
Sapp, and WAS on his way with his pris-
oHer to the station house, when one of
the latter 5 companions struck him sew
eral stunning blows from behind, the
officer pluckily held on to his prisoner
until he WAS Overp0wered by the crowd.
One Of the party, a powerful fellow
named William Sauerland who secured
his club, striking him over the head and
face several times with it. John NJ.
Kessler was the only one in the crowd
to offer assistance TO the PROSTATE Of
licer, who would probably have been
killed by the gang had the citizen not
came forward. Noticing the danger of
the policeman, who had been summon
ed TO protect Kessler's property, he fired
several shots in the air to attract atten-
tioA of other policeman. lie was inn
mediately assaulted by Sauerland who
struck him stunning blow over the
head At the same time, it is said, he
put his hand behind him, as if to fire.
Nj. Kessler then, Knowing that the
man was quick with the use of weap-
ons, protected himself, by shooting the
man on the spot. The ball took effect
in his forehead, and he died shortly af-
ter beng removed to Johns Hopkins
University. Officer Taylor, who had
been dazed by the blows, helped to as
sist his assailant to the patrol wagon.
1t was also his duty to arrest Kessler,
who had proved himself friend and ac-
company him to the station house a
jury of inquest will be held tonight,
and from the statements in the papers
today. it is believed that Kessler will
be exon rated from blame.
Officer Taylor has been on the force
of Baltimore nine years, and has made
most efficient officer. Several times
he has been placed on the roll of honor,
for important arrests and he has been
offered the sergeancy, ,but preferred to
remain in the ranks. Many inquiries
were made today as to his condition, a
member of the family telegraphed and
received this reply: II am on duty,
only received black eye.
