 A serious assault took place at the
 corner oe Baldwin street and Congress
 avenue. in which a non-union teamster
 for Peck & Bishop was very badly in
 jured, sometime between 5 and o'clock
 last evening. The exact facts in refer
 ence to the matter are not at present
 known, but the police gave out the fol-
 lowing story at midnight.
 Joseph Kinney was driving one of
 Peck & Bishops trucks yesterday after
 noon and at about 5 o'clock he went in
 to saloon at the corner of Baldwin
 street and Congress avenue. While
 there it is claimed he got into an argu-
 ment with one or more union teamsters.
 He was badly pounded and kicked in
 the head. Some time after the affair
 Patrolman Cook. who was returning
 from work, found the man lying in a
 pool of blood in the gutter. He thought
 the man was intoxicated and had fallen,
 so he placed him under arrest. On the
 way to the station house Doorman
 Bradley, who was in charge Of the wagon. saw that the man was in a very
 bad way so he told Driver Wall to turn around and take the man to the hos- pitaI. This was done. and on his ar rival there it was found that the man was in a very bad condition. His jaw was broken and he was bleeding freely from the ears, nose and mouth. Just how serious his injuries are could not be. learned last %evening, but it was stated that there was a possibility that the skull was fractured. and that the brain may be injured His condition was somewhat improved early this morning Who committed the assault is not known.
