Shot In the Leg.

John Shannon, of Ottumwa, Iowa,
lies on cot in the city Jail, suffering
from a bullet wound IN his left leg,
and three of his companions occupy
cells in the same institution, all
charged with completely in shoot
ing scrape, which occurred in the sub
urbs of this city last night.
As this city ID q junction point, the
trainmen, and especially those ia
charge Of freight trains, are infested
by the tramps, who have during the
past few weeks, adopted the idea of
travelling in gangs instead Of singly as
is their usual custom. All day vester-
day, the hobos were exceptionally
numerous in the yards, and it was only
after decidedly hard work the train
crews succeeded in Kidding the cars of
their gratis freight. The general trend
of the wanderers appeared to be east
ward. Yesterday evening about dark,
the yard men observed gang consist
ing of eight trsmps, lounging about
the yards apparently waiting for an
east bound freight train. Later the
gang separated four remaining in the
Yards and the other half going to the
Tenth street signal tower, which is 10
Gated at the eastern terminus of the
Northwestern switch yards. The gang
made several attempts to ride out
bound freight trains, but in each in
stance they we're futile, as the train
crews succeeded in driving them from
the cars.
About 1890 q. m. freight train, No.
%, in charge of Conductor Kahout,
pulled through the yards, and was pas
sing the east switch when four of the
hobos, who had been hiding near a
pile of ties, ran from their shelter and
climbed aboard the train, all of them
getting into coal car. When the head
brakeman who saw the men get onto the
train, went to the car In which they
were riding and attempted to put
them off, according to his story, the
men made answers of sullen sort and
remarked they intended to stay on the
car or fight. Soon requests lead to de.
aands and anIfink the Melee which
started, just as the train passed over
the Arst bridge east of the city, the
brakeman discharged his revolver, the
ball from which passed completely
through the calf of Shannon's left leg,
q few inches above the ankle. AS to
the causes leading up to the shooting,
the stories Of those concerned conflict
The brakeman claims the men had
left the car and at the time were
throwing stones at him, while Shan.
non and the remainder of the gang
CLAIM thsy were Just in the act OF
leaving when the brakeman shot.
Shannon claims he was among the last
to leave the car and had just placed
his left foot over the sideboard when
the brakeman, who was but a few feet
from him discharged his revolver.
Shortly after the shooting the
officers on the night police force were
apprised Of the affair and going to
the vicinity wherein the shooting oc.
CURED, arrested the principals impli,
Gated.
Responding to q telegram the North.
Western officials this morning notified
the local authorities they would send a
representative here to prosecute the
