Baltic.
 There was an altercation between two firemen in the Aspinook boiler house shortly after 10 o'clock Satur- day night. Valery Gorosnoski and John Oroskoski came to work in the ten o'clock shift. The trouble started in an argument about their work. The men got mad and came to blows. Co., rosnoski was struck over the head by Oroskoski with heavy iron slicing bar. He threw up his arm to ward off the blow and the arm was broken short off, two inches of the larger bone being actually pulverized. The force of the blow then brought the bar to the mans head, inflicting long scalp wound. Gorosnoski was taken to Dr. R. R. Agnew's office. where his scalp was sewn together and the broken arm set. He was then taken home. Dr. Agnew stated that had the skull received the full force of the blow 1t would have been crush ed like an eggshell.
 Officer DriscolI arrested Oroskosh and locked him up. Sunday morning he was admitted to s100 bail and will be tried at o'clock this (Monday) evening. He claimed Sunday morn ing that Gorosnosh attacked him first with a lantern and that he struck in self-defence.
