KNIFE CUTS MAY BE FATAL
Injuries inflicted on, white woman
by Negro Liable to Cause
Death.

Miss Irene Connors, who was stabbed
at the Cambridge hotel Tuesday morning
by a negro said TO have been f. Smith, is
still in a critical condition at Clarkson
hospital. The chief danger at present is
the possibility of infection in the breast
wound
1t was enormously reported that PATROL
man vobril and Cunningham made the
arrest of E. Smith, the colored man now
charged at the city jail with cutting with
intent to kill Miss Connors The arrestlng
officers were Lickert and Cunningham.
They had Smith in handouts within FIVE
minutes after the stabbihg was reported
10 police headquarters
Il developed Tuesday Smith may have
to face the charge of murder for the wan
ton assault he committed. After the
surgeons at the Clarkson hospital had
dressed the wounds on Miss Connors' face
and neck a narrow wound was discovered
in her left side. This is by far the most
serious OF all. 1t was made by a straight
stab of the knife that was aimed at her
heart. This organ was mot injured. but
was narrowly missed. 1t is thought the
steel did penetrate her left lung, and the
stab may be fatal at any moment. The
wound was not discovered at first because
scarcely drop of blood flowed from 1t.
Miss connors was unable to tell where
she was suffering the most. Soon the
symptoms of a deeper wound developed
and an examination brought 1t to light.
