SUITS and COUNTER SUITS
Baltimore Garlic Done Up in a
Free-for.all on Orange
Street.
MlX-UP AMONG "CULLED" FOLK
Warrants in Plenty Sworn Out After
the House is Raided and the
Inmates Arrested by the
Police. Probably Fatal
Injuries Inflicted.
AMONG "CULLED" FOLK

| A colored man named Edward Garlic,
alias Baltimore, was probably fatally
injured in free fight at the house No.
2l9 Orange street yesterday afternoon.
Knives were used during the scrap as
well as fists, and as a result Garlic IS a
patient at the Delaware Hospital, suffer-
ing with severe wounds about the face
and head, and Mary Jones, the proprie-
tress of the place, has a slight knife
wound in the breast. The affair hap
pened at 3.45 o'clock yesterday after
noon.
Garlic visited the house on Monday
and played poker with the inmates for
some hours. When he quit he was the
loser of considerable sum of money.
lie secured some more money yester-
day and went back to the house deter.
mined to win back the money he had
lost and more too. Upon entering the
house he at once proposed a game and
for time all went we'll. Garlic, after a
while saw that his money was rapidly
melting away and then thought he saw
the others were cheating him.
He flew into rage at once and charged
the other players with cheating. They
denied it and he again called them cheats
and more vulgar names.
The fight started then and there.
Garlic pulled knife as the others closed
in on him. He defended himself with a
knife, but was nevertheless done up.
The police soon learned of the fracas
and removed Garlic to the station house
and from there sent him to the Delaware
Hospital.
Garlic swore ont warrants charging
Mary Jones, the proprietress of the house
and her alleged husband, Alexander
Jones, with assault with intent to kill,
and also with keeping a disorderly
house.
The warrants were served by the
police, who also took into custody the
other inmates of the house, Annie Coates,
William Thomas and Emma Watson,
who will be held as witnesses, although
warrants may also be put on them.
Subsequently Mary Jones, Annie
Coates, William Thomas and Emma
Watson swore out information against
Garlic charging him with assault and
battery with intent to kill.
Mary Jones, the proprietress, who was
cut in the breast by Garlic, swore infor-
nation charging him with assault with
intent to kill.
Garlic is badly used up man and it
will require some time for him to re-
cover The affair caused much excite.
ment on Orange street and crowd was
attracted by the noise made by the
party. The police soon had everything
quieted down. All parties concerned
are coIored,

FINGER TORN OFF.
Miss Annie Applegate Meets With
an Accident at the GEORGETOWN
Hosiery Mills, This City.

Hosiery Mills, This City.
At the Georgetown Hosiery Mills,
Thirteenth and Lombard streets, yester-
day morning, Annie Applegate, aged 16
years, Of No. 8l9 Morrow street, lost the
small finger OF her right hand.
She had just arrived at the factory
and thought she would attach the knit
ting machine she was about to work on
to the power wheel, but instead Of call
ing the foreman so she would not have
to lose any time in starting, she stopped
down to attach 1t herself.
Her hair fell over her shoulder and
caught in the machine, drawing her
toward the moving wheels. Her finger
slipped and caught between the belt and
the wheel, with the result as stated
above. She also received cut on the
back of her head and large bunch of
hair was torn out of her head.
Her cousin, working at the same
place and living at No. 1903 Walnut
street, ran to her home and told her
parents of the accident. Her mother
went to the factory and took the injured
girl to her home. DR.. France was called
in and attended to the injuries.
