sHnr TnROnGH LUNG.

There were two hold-ups on Shooter
Hill road, a short distance from TIL
CITY. early last night. One of the vic
Tins was relieved of gold watch an'
the other was shot through the right lung
and is now 10 a precarious condition a
the Alexandria Hospital,
Edward Pinck, colored, who live
10 Fairfax county, was on his way
home about 1880 o'clock, and when b
had reached a point nearly opposite the
residence of Mr.. @. ri. Adams he was
accosted by three men, who ordered him
to hold up his hands. The highgwsy-
men then relieved him Of his watch,
after which ne was allowed to depart.
At S:45 O'Clock Mr.. 7. J. Snyder,
Who lives near Bsiley's cross roads, was
proceeding up Shooters Hill, and when
be vas but short distance west OF the
union passenger station three men sud
IDENTIFY appeared In front OF him. One
of the trio discharged a pistol at him,
the ball from which entered Mr.. Sny-
der's right luDg. The purpose OF the
highwaymen was robbery, but being
near the depot, and fearing the discharge
of the pistol would bring people to the
scene. the footpads decamped. The
shooting soon became known at the
union depot, aud telephone message was
sent to the station house in this city.
Lieueuleut Belts sent Officer Beach to
investigate The shooting and he met Mr..
SNYDER Who in his weakened condition
wss driving toward the city. He gave
Officer Beach 40 account OF the shooting,
after which the wounded man was driven
to the station house and later to the
Alexandra Hospital, where be YVES at
tended by Dra. Moore and Wsr6eld, who
made unsuccessful efforts to locate the
bullet. Mr. 5nyder's condition this
morning was critical.
Mr.. Snyder WAS armed with a pistol
which he had loaded after he reached
the confines of the city, but he says the
bighgaymen we're too quick fer him and
he was shot before be could get his pistol
from his pocket.
Mr.. Bailey has wife and a number
of children, and ho at times last night
manifested bis concern for them, as
they we're at that time awaiting his re-
tara home.
Three white men, all Of short statue,
were seen proceeding up Shooters Hill
road shortly before the above occurrences,
aud there is every reason to believe that
they we're the men who committed the
crime. The police Of this city are en-
deayoripg to identify the criminals.
