SATURDAY EVENING. SEP. 2 lSoo
Detectives Narrow Escape.


Superintendent of bet ,ctives Thomas
A. McQuaide narrowly escaped being
murdered in his privata Office, in the
Public Safety Buildingin Pittsburg, Pa,
shortly after 3 o'clock Yesterday after
noon by Edward Johnstt n, giant me- o
burglar and "bad man" from Chicago.
AS it was, the superintendent, four of
his detectives AMI his chief clerk were
all cut up and bruised before blow from
a blackjack brought the negro down.
Johnston was arrested yesterday after
noon while trying TO pawn jewelry valued
at 81 900 and taken before MeQuaide
He was searched and large quantity of
' luables and several weapons taken from
him. Then the Superintendent was left
alone with the negro. He demanded
that Johnston take his shoes of, as he
wanted to make further seach. Johns
ton refus, 4, and McQuside decided to
perform the task himself. AS he stoop-
ed forward Johnston seized him about
the waist, and frightful struggle en-
sued, McQuaide trying to reach a row
OF electric call buttons on his desk,
while the negro fought to secure heavy
paper knife which was on The desk.
The negro finally secured the knife
and cut McQuaide several time. He
was just about to plunge the knife into
the superintendent back when Nc
Quaide reached the buttons and sum
moned help. Detectives McCough, Lal-
ly, McRobert and Cook and Chief Clerk
Keene ran into the room. The big ne
gro was match for them all, however,
and fought them through the outer office
into the hallway before blow from
blackjack brought him down. All OF
the six men we're cut and bleeding, al
though the injuries of none of them was
serious, McQuaide being the worst in
iured. He received several bad slashes
in the face and hands.
Superintendent McQuaide is one OF the
best known detectives in the country.
Recently he won fame by following to
England and bringing back fhe Ferguson
murderers, two of whom we're hanged.
Jc hnston is one of the most dangerous
crooks in the country.
