ASSAULT BY
CRIMP MCCARTHY
Sailor Henlon Says He was
Cut and Kicked by Him
Yesterday.

Big Mccarthy, the waterfront crimp.
was arrested yesterday and charged
with assaulting a deep sailor named
Stephen Henlon. Henlon appeared
at the police station shortly after noon
and exhibited a deep cut over his left
eve and other bruises upon his face.
These he said were the results of a
blow dealt him with bottle by the
big Irishman.
Henlon was shipped on Thursday by
Mccarthy to go aboard the Star of
Russia. He slept at McCarthy's place
on Queen street that night and was to
have been put aboard the vessel yes
terday. Mccarthy forgot to feed his
protege in this time and Henlon had a
gnawing pain in his stomach about
noon time. He was watching a man
named Mcintyre paint the boat which
Mccarthy recently bought from Turk
& Lewis. Mccarthy came up to the
two men and Mcintyre asked for more
paint. Henlon at the same time asked
for something to eat, saying. NC
Carthy, I'm hungry"
For answer. Henlon says, Mccarthy
picked up a beer bottle containing oil
and giving terrific swing brought the
Bottle across the seamans head. An
other blow and Henlon went down
blood streaming from the wound. While
lie was down Mccarthy made use of his
'eet and kicked the PROSTATE man in
| he chest several times.
Henlon and Mcintyre came to the
police station and the former swore tC
warrant charging the crimp will
brutal assault. Mccarthy was found
1t his lodging house and brought to the
| station in the patrol wagon. Before
