difficulty arose about the uniform he

Struck by Rock Thrown by I'M
known Negro-She is in a
Critical Condition.

AS a result Of a. dispute between her
father and burly negro yesterday
morning. little Mary Joseph Charlie
daughter of an Italian fruit dealer. at
the corner of Twenty-fourth and Main
Streets, is an inmate OF the City Hospi-
tai, and it is very likely she will die.
The child was struck in the head by a
rock, and her skull was crushed.
1t seems that the fruit yeader and the
negro, who is unknown to the police or
anyone who witnessed the ARRAY, be-
came involved in dispute about pay
ment for watermelon, which the negro
had purchased. Suddenly the burly brute
stepped into the street, and picking up q
large rock let it go at the Italian. He
lodged, and the stone missed its intend
ed mark.
But it struck the innocent little girl
who was standing Just few feet behind
her father. She fell to the floor in an in
sensible condition. Blood was flowing
freely from san ugly wound in her head.
and it was plain that she was seriously
injured.
One of the spectators who witnessed
the affair telephoned the AlmShouse
and the ambulance responded in a hur-
~. The little girl was lifted tenderly into
the conveyance and carried with all
lance physician having pronounced the
injury OF a most serious nature.
At the hospital the wound was dressed
and it was deemed advisable to keep the
child at the institution, as the physicians
thought the inquiry might prove fatal.
AT a late hour last night the condition
of the child was unchanged, she never
having regained consciousness, and while
some hopes are entertained for her recov-
cry, they are regarded as slight,
Immediately after throwing the stone
the negro fled around a corner and has
not since been seen. The police are maxi
ing a strenuous effort to locate him, al
though they have no idea as to his identity
In case he is captured he will be prose
cuted TO the extent Of the law. and if
the child should die he will be placed
on trial for his life on the charge of
murder.
