ENDED IN A ROW.
Shooting and Cutting at a Dance Near
Jackson City.

A revolver. a sharp instrument and a
piece of brick were the weapons used dur
ing row at dance given in jefferson
Hall, just below Jackson City, at an early
hour this morning. Robert Slaughter. AL
bert Wilder and John Bailey of Arlington
and Henry Lewis of Queen City, Va, par
ucipated in the row. Slaughter was shot
in the hip, it is alleged. by Lewis and was
also cut about his left hand. Lewis re-
ceived a cut in the back and was struck
on the head with a brick. The cut on the
head was far more serious than the cut in
the back Wilder and Bailey were arrested
and taken to the county Jail at Fort Myer
Heights. Slaughter and Lewis were brought
here by friends and taken to the Emergency
Hospital. Slaughter was taken to the first
precinct station after his injuries were
dressed, but he suffered such intense pain
that he was returned to the hospital. Later
in the day arrangements were made for the
removal of the wounded man to Freedmen 5
Hospital, where he will remain until he is
able to go to court. Lewis will probably
be returned to Alexandria county and
placed in jail. jefferson Hall, the scene Of
the row, is near Roach's station. a short
distance below Jackson City. A coiored
club gave a concert and dance in the hall
last night. 1t was long after midnight
when the trouble occurred. Slaughter when
seen by Star reporter this morning, said
that Lewis caused all the trouble He
and Lewis had some words, he said, about
three weeks ago. and since then the latter
has threatened to kill him. This morning
he said, he was seated near the musicians
when Lewis walked up and shot him. AS
soon as the shot was fired, he said, he
grabbed the weapon and held it until it was
taken from his asSailant The other men,
he said, participated in the affair. but to
just what extent he could not tell. When
the shooting occurred the hall was crowded
and panic ensued. Constables were soon
on hand and two of the men were arrested

Is Any One Re.ponsible,
To the Editor of The Evening Star:

~ INC Euitor VI 1ne Evening star:
Given down grade, a long car, a short
curve and a lax system of running cars
and we may have any day disaster like
that Of Saturday afternoon in lexington
That so few persons were on the car and,
possibly, no life lost must afford no pallia-
ton whatever. A few hours later, when
the cars were packed with humanity, the
result would have been too frightful to
imagine. AS to the cause of the accident
there is no room for doubt Only a mo-
mentum resulting from a high rate of
speed could have caused that immense car
to be hurled from its trucks. There are
hundreds of our citizens who do not leave
the city in the summer but treat them
selves and their families to breezy sub
urban ride in the evening on the rapid
transit cars. But the charm of electric
convenience' has become fraught with un-
certainty and foreboding. Our people must
stay at home or take this needed rest and
refreshment with fear and trembling lest
they be brought home mangled or dead
Is there any authority whose duty it is to
make fronclad regulations regarding the
regulations are strictly adhered to? There
should be a well-established and universal
ly understood rule that these cars, some of
them very large, should absolutely never
approach a curve without being slowed
down. 1t is not necessary to suggest that
the brakfng should be commenced in sea-
son to allow for a down grade In these
days Of push and rush life and limb are
sufficiently threatened in unavoidable ways.
Where it is not only possible but vitalIy
essential, let responsibility be fixed. CHIP.
