SHOWED SOLDIERS THE PISTOL.
Joe Brown Then Dehed a Citizen to
Arrest Him.

Joe Brown Then Dehed n Citizen to
Arrest Him.
A. C. Williams had a fierce struggle with
Joe Brown, coIored, at Congress and West
Broad streets last night, while trying to
arrest him for carrying a pistol. Brown
seems to have been exhibiting the weapon
TO a few soldiers, when Williams appeared
and placed him under arrest.
When Williams first approached, Brown
was busy showing the soldiers how the
gun worked, and telling them there were
no soldiers who could hustle him TO the
barracks. On telling the negro to consider
himself under arrest for carrying wea-
pons. Williams started 10 lay hold of his
man, but was prevented when the negro
put the pistol in another hand and drew
a large knife He defied Williams to mo-
lest him further. This did not have
subduing effect, however, as Williams
quickly threw the negro to the ground,
but not until after a struggle. The wea-
pons were wrested from his hands, after
which he was turned over to a police
man and sent to the barracks.
AS Brown was being put in the patrol,
Private Bachelor of Battery c, Firsr
Maine Artillery. and Private 10 E. Jones,
Company A, Third Georgia Regiment, re-
ported he was the same negro who stab
bed soldier Saturday night and escaped.
They said they were positive he was the
man, and while they did not appear at the
police station to prefer charges, they
promised to be present in court this morn
ing to tell about it.
