A BAD MAN.
Drew Bead on the Officers But Gun
Failed to Work.

Failed to Work.
John McGurl an all round bad man,
made things uncomfortable for officers
Blake and Knight yesterday afternoon
and but for broken trigger spring at
least one of Worcester's bravest would
probably have bullet in his body. Nc
Curtis son. Hugh, told Capt. Matthews
yesterday morning that his father
threatened to kill every member of the
family, and the captain detailed the two
officers to bring McGurl to the station.
When they arrived at his home, $50
Park avenue, they found that McGurl
had built himself a barricade.
The officers fearlessly walked up to
the firing line and as McGurl raised the
revolver to get a bead on the two police
men, visions Of the future began to float
before their eyes. McGurl got the bead
on the officers all right, but the revolv-
er refused to work and the unruly man
was captured by a flank movement and
brought to station 1, where he was
booked for carrying a dangerous wea-
pom.
1t is supposed that McGurl is dement,
ed, and he will be examined this mora
ing. During the blizzard of 'S8, Officer
Morgan found him in a snowbank near
ly dead, and carried him on his back
He has been drinking heavily.

Judgment was found for the plaintiff
for $2S2
The case involved the payment of a
draft for about that amount. The
plaintiff bought the note, which was
payable in Turkey. AS it became due
at the time of the Armenian massacres,
the plaintiff claimed that he could not
collect 1t in the old country, and ac-
cordingly sued the defendant, who in
his own defense alleged that the
plaintiff had collected the amount in
spite of his protestations to the con-
trary.
Eminent legal talent are engaged in
the suit and the defendant who has
appealed the case to the superior court,
states that he will fight the action into
the United States supreme court if
necessary. j. r. Kane appears for the
plaintiff; Col. W. S. b. Hopkins for the
defendant.
