CUTTING SCRAPES
One Negro Desperately
Injured, Another Bad
Iy CIT.

Yesterday afternoon two negroes
were seen gesticulating in the north
west corner of the CapitoI square, and
soon after there were passes between
them. One succeeded in landing a fist
blow in the face of his opponent, and
the one struck then pulled a razor.
The two men were Charlie Perry and
Albert Carter, both BARRIERS, Carter
being independent and Perry working
for Charlie Young.
Perry was the negro who whipped
out his razor, and he started after
Carter, who had retreated. They
cOursed over the grass and flower
beds in the capitol square, and en-
tered Edenton street. Perry was
gaining on the man fleeing, and was
brandishing the weapon he held.
Garter made a desperate dash for the
offices of the Agricultural Department,
and was admitted directly by Mr..
Cherry, a clerk, who, at the same time
picked up a heavy paper weight, and
told Perry that he would be Drained
if he attempted to enter the building.
Others also interfered for the safety
Of Carter, and as the police were noti-
fed directly, Perry left, and had not
been captured alta late hour last night
1t was not known until after Perry
had fled that Carter had been cut AS
the negroes were close together dur
ing the run, Perry made several
slashes at Carter, but only two took
effect, both of these being on the right
arm. The wounds were treated by
Mr.. w. G.. Thomas, whose drug store is
lear Cartcr's tonsorial parlor.
Carter is an inoffensive negro,
aearing a splendid reputation, and
lpOn inquiry it developed that the
cause of the affair was the gift of

Carter.
