FIGHT TO DEATH WITH THIRF
Kills Deputy Before Finally Landed
i'm Hospital Ward.
(Atlanta Journal.)

Dave S. Yancey, special deputy at
tached to the sheriff's office and the
criminal division of the city court,
was stabbed to death about noon
Monday by Eugene Watson, q negro,
whom he was seeking to arrest for
snatching another negros pocket
book.
Yancey met his death after a long
chase and a hard fight with the ne
gro, who was later desperately
wounded and finally captured after
battle with the city police.
Watson was on the corner of
Whitehall and Forsyth streets when
he snatched purse containing $4.55
from Jesse Winn, another negro.
Winn gave chase, yelling "Stop,
| thief"
A number of white people joined
in the chase after the thief, and
among them was Yancey, who out
distanced the other pursuers. Yancey
| fired twice at the negro and wounded
him in the right leg.
After a chase through back yards
and over fences the negro crawled
under a house In the rear OF 500

and surrender. The negro did come

the knife in his hand. Before Mr..
Yancey raised up from his stopping
posture the negro had commenced
stabbing him.
The keen knife blade slashed
across the deputy's neck twice, and
then the negro stabbed him in the
heart. AS Yancey was toppling to
the ground, the negro's knife was
raked across his stomach, making an
other fatal wound.
When Yancey sank dying on the
ground his slayer picked up his re-
volver. Only two chambers are said
to have been emptied at that time.
WITH the revolver in one hand and
the bloody knife in the other, and
blood pouring from the wound in his
leg, Watson started his flight. At no
time did he try the streets, but kept
running through back yards hurdling
fences, until he arrived at the corner
Oh WINDSOR street and Woodward av-
enue, where he crawled under va
cant house.
Two white boys came up Just at
the end OF the death struggle and
hurled rocks at the fleeing negro, but
were unable to follow him to the
hiding place.
Police Trail Him.
The city police were quickly called
TO the scene and they traced the lie
gro by the stories of frightened wo-,
men, who had seen the man, gun and
knife In hand, running through their
yards. &E
The police found a little blood
where the negro had isope under the
house. When they could not find
that he had left the house the place
was surrounded.
