Officer Coyle on Charles street rather
drunk, said that while Walking peacefully
down toward Randall square from Tool
Vile, he was approached by Hebrew
VINO at once put revolver to his cloth
ing and fired. No mark of any pist |
prat tice was found on the Italians cloth
ing when he was examined at the Second
station. AS evidence that the liquor he
had drank made Joc's fancy very playful
il NAV be remarked that he warned Of
ficer Mccarthy on his way to the sta
tion in the patrol wagon that he had a
r',or in his pocket. The searchers at the
station failed TO find this weapon of Of
fence and defense, and Joe was charged
simply with drunkenness.
