struggle With a Maniac.

Albert S. Belote, former employe OF
the Postoffice Department in Washing
ton. made savage attack upon George
F. Shaw, the superintendent OF the post
Office building, yesterday, and for time
it appeared as if the struggle might re-
suit in tragedy. Back aud forth the
two men swayed, as Belote attempted to
force Mr.. Shaw over the railing OF one OF
the openings of the corridor on the fifth
floor Of the building, which oserlooks
the court. 1t was, evidently, bis pur-
pose to throw Mr.. Shaw over the railing,
causing him to crash through the glass
roof which covers the portion OF the
building on the first floor used by the
city mail service.
Belote struggled with a fury which
seemed almost inhuman, so great was Its
intensity. But Shaw, realizing that he
was fighting for his life, exerted all OF
his power to push his adversary against
the wall. Finally. af.er strenuous efforts,
he succeel lied in getting Belote under
control, threw him to the floor, and held
him there until the police were sum
m0ned.
In the meantime, the corridor had he
come crowded with clerks, and whrn
they realized the cause of the trouble,
some of them went to the assistance OF
Mr.. Shaw, bat not before he had sue
ceeded in overcoming his assailant.
Belote was arrested on the charge OF
assault and taken across the street to
the First precinct police station. whence
later he was committed tn the Washing
ton Asylum on charge of insanity.
1t is stated that Belote was formerly
employed as watcbman in the Busch
Building, Eight and E, street northwest,
which is used by the department. About
a year ago he Was dismissed because
of being found asleep while on duty, and,
according to the story told last night,
attributed his dismissal to Mr.. Shaw,
from whom he was determined to have
an explanation.
1t was not until yesterday that Belote
had an opportunity for revenge, and
when he met Mr.. Shaw in one of the
upper corridors of the building, he at
once attacked him and made q strong
fight.
