The suppose OFFICER SLACK STABBED, Result of an Attempt to Arrest « Drunken WOUND VERY SPRIOUS AND IT MAY RESULT FATALLY—MEYERS, WHO MADE THE ATTACK, BADLY USED UP—ARRESTED AND SENT TO JAIL. Policeman Junius B. Slack after years of faithful service and participation in many a severe struggle received a wound last night that in ali probability will end his career on earth. The wound was received in the line of duty and was apparently for no cause what- ever, except that the person who committed r, which made something or somebody. The name of that individual is Charles H. Myers, a butcher by trade, but who for somo time past has earned his living driv. ing a wagon and carrying passengers between the eastern terminus of H street and Benning. HE USED A BUTCHER KNIFE. Being adbutcher, it was probably natural for Myers to use a butcher knife as a weapon, and he did so with almost the same deadly effect asif the knife had been used on animals slaughtered 1d fatal wound was in- flicted directly in front of the officer's house on the Benning road, between 15th and 16th streets. ay rs lives in the house adjoining that of the er. and the two men have always been friendly, although Myers frequently got drunk and caused trouble, principally in bis own house. Not many weeks ago Policeman Eblersof the ninth precinct was called to the houve to quiet Myers and he did so without making an arrest. He threatened to take him out of the house if he did not keep quiet, and after that, it is said, Myers used language tothe effect that he would use his butcher knife, and the officer was told to be on the lookout for him, as be had threat- ened to “kill the d— Dutebl policeman.” TRIED TO QUIET A DRUNKEN MAY. Officer Slack had quieted Myers several times when he was under the influence of liquor, and Jasf night he had only attempted to do what he had done on previous occasions. The officer had been on duty and had just returned home, where his wife awaited him with the usual late supper. When he reached the front gate be heard Myers using bad language and disturbing his family generally, but, as he did not feol well, he told his wite that he would wait until this morning and procure a warrant for Myers. Officer Slack, being a mounted policeman, had to put his horse in the stable, and as he passed through the yard Myers seemed to em- ploy more strength than ever in the use of expletives. Myers could not be induced to go into the house and go to bed, but he left his premises and strated on the road toward the city. The officer seeing his advice was of no avail, went out and met Myers at the front gate and told the intoxicated man of his intention toarrest him. MRS. SLACK’S STORY. Mrs. Slack, the officer's wife, who witnessed wbat happened, tells the story in this way: When the officer told Myers that he was under arrest aud before he had put his hand upon him Myers used the kuife and Mr. Slack cried: “He's killed me.” ‘Myers then turned toward his own yard and the officer followed him. When in Myers’ yard they came together and although so danger- ously wounded Slack used hfs club and ht to the last to maintain his arrest, exhibiting the nerve that has distinguished him on mo: than one occasion. The result was that Myei head was severely cut aud his right arm was broken below the elbow. In the tussle Myers, who isa heavy man, fell upon the prostrate form of the oificer and it was with difficulty that the officer's wife and Myers’ son got them ‘MRS. SLACK BLEW THE DISTRESS CALL. The officer's whistle was taken from his pocket by his wife, who blew the distress call and summoned Policemen Wanneli and Brown, who, upon searching the premises, found Myers in the yard walking to and fro, suffering from the effets of the punishmen: given him by the officer. The knife with which the in- fury was inflicted was found beneath the porch where Myers had thrown it. The officer was taken into his house and Dr. Strickler was soon at his bedside. He found that the knife had entered between the fifth and sixth ribs and had passed beneath the skin a distance of from four to six inches, as the blade of the knife indicated from the blood stain upon it. The condition of the officer's vest | as though Myers had made asecond attempt to use the knife, but it did not pass further than the ent. Dr. Leach dressed the wound on Myers’ head he was then taken to the Emergency Hos- pital, where nis broken arm was set OFFICER SLACK'S CoNDITIO: Drs. McKim and Strickler, the polica sur- geons, were looking after the officer this morn- ing. The woundisan ugly one, and appear- ances indicate that the knife was twisted when in the wound. Dr. McKim said he would not say that the wound was necessarily fatal, as it was too early this morning to state the exact extent of it. The weapon is held at the ninth precinct station to be used as evidence in event of the case reaching the courts. It is what is called a splitting knife, the blade being about twelve or fourteen inches long. The rust marks on the knife show that it had not been in use for a long time. MYERS IN THE POLICE couRT. Myers, who is a badly disabled man, was taken to the Police Cour: this morning, where he was confronted with a warrant sworn out by Policeman Wannell charging him with at- tempted murder. Lawyer Sillers represented the prisoner, and made —— for his Telease on bail, but Judge Miller declined to fix bail in the case without the consent of the Prosecuting attorney. Myers was very sick when he appeared in court. His head is badly cut, and he seemed to be in « dazed condition. He declined to be interviewed only because he was too ill to talk. After court was over for the day he was committed to jail to await the result of the officer’sinjurios. Racing Matinees Today. Racing matinces took place this afternoon at both Benning and Brightwood. At both places the first event took place at 2 o'clock. ‘The Benning card contained astecplechase over the full course, with the following entries: H.R. Dulany’s Mogul, Dupont stable’s Billy M., H.

As has been the custom for years, the poor of the District in the Washington Asylum and the “vags” and other prisoners in the work house will have turkey on their bill of fare to- day. Today and Christmas are the only times in the year that turkey is added to their list of edibles, and they look forward to these d with great expectation. ‘The work house gang laid asi e shovel and the hoe today and will | their forces at the dinner table. | Turkey will have a smail chance of getting away, and when the attack is over the remaining carcasses will not contain meat enough to make even shadow soup. Religious services were held in the work house, ulms house and hospital toda; ——_ Among the Orphans. ‘The orphans at the Washington City Orphan Asylam were as merry as could be today. It was before dinner when a reporter of Tux Stax called, yet their merry chatter told plainer than words of the good things they were ex- cting. Turkey, eran! celery and Titsuck seasonable delicacice were being pre- pared in the large kitchen, and the savory odor of roast turkey filled the entire building. ges Marriage Licenses licenses have been issued by the clerk of the court to the following: B. F. Wheeler Its Sessions on the Revision of the Confession of Faith Closed. The presbytery of this city closed its sessions yesterday after concluding the consideration of the proposed revision of the confession of faith. An afternoon session was held, at which the final proposed substitutes were taken upand acted upon. Dr. Hamlin proposed the omission of the word “all” from the mention of infants dying in infancy in the third section, because the Scripturos make no mention of the number. The presbytery concurred. { “Papists and other idolaters” was stricken by unanimous consent from the chapter on ‘and divorce. The reference to the pope as anti-Christ provoked discussion and was changed to a statement of his claims “as Unwarranted in Seripture or in fact, and a Bauepation dishonoring to the Lord’ Jesus A number of more or less important verbal changes were recommended. Dr. Hamlin showed that with but one excep- tion the amendments had been made by a two- thirds vote and roport, a8 @ whole, was adopted. ‘The presbytory then adjourned. — POTOMAC COUNCIL'S DANCE.
