Blows-Brevities

PASADENA, March ~. -(Ontce OF The
Herald. IS East Colorado street.) Joseph
Bunch has sworn to a complaint charging
Hance Turner with drawing a pocket
knife with intent to stab him. Bunch and
Turner are both colored men and they do
janitor work in several of the business
blocks about town. They both belong TO
the Douglas league, and it seems that the
trouble arose yesterday morning, when
Turner accused Bunch Of Withholding the
money of the league. Turner, however, de-
nies that he accused him. Bunch said he
would turn the money over If Turner
would give him receipt for it and the
other money which he has previously
turned over. From this alteration a row
ensued and Bunch brandished his broom.
Very likely there were blows from either
side, though the mems statements are not
very clear. Turner drew his pockee-knife,
but no blood was shed. Turner claims that
he acted in sslf-defense. He is out on his
own recognizance and will be tried in
day or two.
