[, was stated 10 yesterdays G zstte
that a resident OF the southwestern section
of this city had been cut lest Saturday
during an sff'ay 10 which the victim,
his daughter and young man psrticl-
gated. Warrants we're issued last night
for the arrest of rhe trio.
While neither of the parties to the
ARRAY seems inclined to give any ex-
planalion of the difficulty, it
appears that a young man named
Herman Haynes had been en-
gagged in conversation with Miss Alice
Wink, living at 7l9 GibbOn street.
After having left the young women her
father, Daniel w. Wink, sccosted and
assaulted him. Haynes claims he was
cut at the same time Wink received
several stabs, but he refuses to tell who
welded the knife.
DR.. s b. Moore took several stitches
10 Haynes left srm and DR.. Arthur
Sno Eden took a number in Wink's left
shoulder aud near one Of his ears
Haynes and Miss Wink we're brought

able to attend, the examination of the
case Was postponed.
