Jake Sickles, Also Known to the
Police, Is Arrested Charged With
the Assault Saturday Night
Row on Broadway That Would
Have Been an Honor to the
Bowery.
An enm;ty of long standing between
Jake Siclxles, local character with
something of a police record, and Jack
Melrose, who attained some notoriety
in connection with the escape Of James
Shearen from the central station re-
Gently, led to a savage fight in front
of Gembe's saloon, Broadway and
Grove streets, late Saturday night, in
which Melrose was beaten over the
head with a revolver by Sickles.
Sickles was arrested on the charge
of assault with a dangerous weapon.
Melrose was locked up on the charge
OF disorderly conduct and later taken
to the city hospital. He received two
severe scalp wounds. His injuries,
however, are said not to be serious
Just what precipitated the fight IS
not definitely known. 1t is said, how
ever. that Melrose was standing at the
lunch counter, when Sickles entered
the saloon and commenced to abuse
him. Both men INDUCED in angry
words, and it is said, Sickles started
toward MelroSe with a movement in
revolver. As Sickles came closer Mel
rose, it is said, turned quickly and
kicked him in the stomach.
Both men then grappled, and during
the struggle which followed they pull
ed and dragged each other to the side
walk, where Sickles, it is said, sue
ceeded in getting a revolver out of mis-
pocket and struck Melrose on the
head.
Those in the saloon were afraid to
separate them for fear Sickles might
cut loose with the revolver and the
savage fight continued until Melrose
finally managed to wrest the weapon
away from Sickles, and stood his en-
envy off under threat of shooting him.
1t is alleged that Mrs. Sickles was
on the outside of the saloon, armed
with revolver, and ready to assist
her husband. After the fight Sergeant
Mccarthy says a witness told him
Mrs. Siclles had thrown a revolver
and Melrose'S hat into the sewer catch
basin. The hat was found in the
basin, but the pistol could not be re-
covered, if it was there, as the basin
contained quite depth of water
Otlcer Hamnergreen was summoned
while the fight was in progress and
arrived in time to place Sickles under
arrest just as Melrose had deprived
him Of his revolver. Melrose was got
ten out of the way by his friends, but
was captured several hours later.
Sickles was released last evening on
an order from Judge Orr, stating that
the judge had inspected a $500 bond
rendered by Sickles' attorney, and
h. +J,o+ ~ 1orr
quired.
The case will be tried in the police
court today if Melrose is able to leave
the hospital.
