4 FIGHT WITH a DESPERATE.
lie Is Morally wounded After shoot
ing Policeman.


Pensacola. Fla. Dec. 16.-About 1 o'clock
this morning. Walter Jordan stabbed his
mistress. Ella Wilson. in the breast with
a pair of scissors in a low dive near Bay
len street wharf in his city. The cries Of
murder by the woman brought Policeman
Ragan 10 the scene, but Jordan had es-
capped. Officer Ragan. in company with
Policeman SpOttsWOOd. went in search OF
Jordan. After going "a short way up the
dummy tract and 81 Barcelona street on
the beach, Oficer Raglan was shot from
a clump Of bushes on the side of the
track, the ball entering at the left groin
and apparently penetrating the lower part
OF the bowels. Jordan then stepped out
from his hiding place and putting his
pistol close to the officers breast pulled
the trigger, but the pistol missed FIRE
Officer Ragan then got his pistol and shot
Jordan in the bowels. Then they clinch-
ed and Officer SpOttswood coming up JOr-
dan was secured
The wound of Officer Raglan is danger
out one, but his physicians think ne can
be saved. Jordan's injuries are probably
fatal i he woman was not seriously
wounded.
