WILLIAM O'NEIL DIES William O’Neil, 27, of 21 John street, a waiter in the lunch cart of George Driscoll, which stands in Shetucket street near Shannon's corner, was stabbed Saturday night a little after midnight by Sidney Howard Galloway, 22, a sailor from the submarine base on the Thames, and died Sunday morn- ing about 10.30 o’clock at the Baskus hospital, where he was rushed imme- diately after the stabbing. Galioway and another sailor with him, Gilbert Witt Coleman, 21, o Martinsburg, W. Va., were at oncel scized and held by Mr. Driscoll and | others and handed over to the police vho arrived quickly. Galloway used an ordinary jack- knife with a blade a little over two inches long, but sharpened to a point| and a razor edge, slashing O'Neil in the abdomen on the right side and cutting through into the liver, where the sharp blade made a cut about three inches long. As soon as the doctors at the hospital had made a complete eramination it was seen that O'Neil's condition ‘was eritical, and about 2 o'clock Sunday morning Galloway and Coleman were taken to the hospital, where O'Neil identified Galloway asi the man who stabbed him and Cole- man as the one who started the alter- cation in the lunch cart before the stabbing. Medical Examiner C. C. Gildersleeve also took O'Neil's ante-mortem state- ment, witich he turned over to Coroner Franklin H. Brown later in the morn- ing when the coroner started an in- vestigation after O'Neil's death. According to the story gathered by the police and through witnesses of ! the affair, the trouble that ended in! the fatal stabbing affray started in the Junch cart, where Coleman, Gallo-| way and another sailor, all said to| i | | have been intoxicated, were noisy and troublesome. (Coleman is reported to| have been the trouble maker, having tan argument with a man named Mc- | morning, having Coleman, Manus who lives on Jail Hill. Me-| Manus ignored Coleman’s attempts. to | pick a fight, laughing him off, but| Coleman grew more abusive. The third ( sailor in the party told the other two| that he would quit them if they start-! ed any trouble. Proprietor Driscoll | finally told them to eat up their sand- | he swung around with a punch that was just in time to catch John Mur- /, 'son of Policeman Patrick Mur- . who had just entered the lunch carf. Murphy returned the punch and O'Neil also landed one and then the! sailors were put out of the cart. One| of them ran down Shetucket street and} has not been seen since, although the | police have his name. Mr. Driscoll stepped out to look for a policeman, as Galloway and Coleman | wanted to come back into the cart,) and as he did so O'Neil followed him out and was apparently stabbed by | Galloway as he stepped to the side- walk. In his ante-mortem statement O’Neil he thought Driscoll might be attacked by the sailors. Galloway, it Is understood, had little to say in the cart, but James P. Hay: claims to have heard him tell O'N if he would come outside he would cut him up. Driscoll was at the farther end of the cart looking down Shetucket street for the police when O'Neil stab- bed and as he turned back the wound- |8 s FROM STAB WOUND ed man cried, “I'm cut, George.” Driscoll jumped for the two sailors and grabbed Coleman, while others jumped for Galloway who had started to run. He was grabbed and knocked down by ‘“‘Sailor” Jack Sullivan’ of New London and John Murphy who had received the punch in the cart. Jack Harrington raised a shout for the police and in a minute a crowd of a hundred men were surging around the two prisoners while Ser- geant A. C. Matthews came hurrying irom Main street and Officer Hugn McAvoy also arrived and they ook over the iwo prisoners. O'Neil bled profusely and asked to have a priest sent for, while Harring- ton got Dr. W. I3, Casey who happened to be on the corner. A man with an automobile volunteered to take O'Neil to the hospital and Dr. Casey accom- panied him ihere. Galloway and Coleman were taken to police headquarters and locked up after being questioned by Capt. D. J. Tweiney. On Galloway's right hand the ends of his fingers were covered with blood and there was blood over the base of his thumb. As Galloway stood up to be searched, Capt. Two- mey saw a jackknife in the chair where the sailor had been sitting. The large blade had numerous bloodspots on it. Search was made for the sailor who ran away by sending the automobile patrol” wagon down through lLaurel Hill and along the Military Highway, but he was not found. Sergt Matthews and Officer Murphy took the two sailors to the hospital in the auto patrol also. Coleman was It in a combatative mood at the hos- pital and advised Galloway that he ought to keep his mouth shut until he had an attorney. Ccroner Brown spent about two hours at the police station Sunday Galloway, Mr. Harrington and Mr. Driscoll tell him what they knew about the case. He will examine more witnesses to- day. Galloway is a native of Knoxville, Tenn., but his home is now in Mineral Bluffs, Ga. He is a second class elec- trician at the submarine base. Cole- man comes from Martinsburg, W. Va guard cutter Onondaga, now at N London. The two prisoners had a number of ilor visitor: Sunday at the police ion and a number of also called to see Galloway. ’Neil was born in this city on Dec. 5, 1891, the son of Peter and the late Anna Sullivan O'Neil, and has spent nearly all of his life in this cit; He attended the St. Patrick’s paroch-, ial school and after graduating waf| employed by various concerns here. He had worked at the Wauregan house and the Del-Hoff hotel, and in | the Marlin-Rockwell shop and had i{been a bookkeeper for the contractor ion the Military Highway work.

M. C. A. Forty U. S. sailors énjoved the home cooked breakfast at the local “Y” Sun- day morning at 9.30 o'clock. The me- nu consisted of sausages, escalloped potatoes, bread and butter, coffee and doughnuts. The meal was served by the “ ladies. A. S. Knowles, hoys secretar; formerly Sergeant, first class in A., gave the boys a very interesting talk. He told of the months he spent in a southern camp, and how oftimes he took occasion to get alone with his thoughts and pondered over the big things of life. He mentioned a fellow snldier with whom he had .become closel quainted and whom he greatly ed because of what he was in his life; he was a fine athlete over six feet in height, and he was big in ¢ as well as body, and he often spoke to him of the great things of the kingdom of God, and he was on the lookout for opportunities to do good. He was fortunate to get aeross, and as an officer showed unusual braver: on one occasion when half of his com pany were killed, he led the others against twice the number of Germans and captured the entire number. He was big in life and brave in the bat- tles, because he had taken God into life. It is a great thing to associate with Jesus Christ. The story is the Bible that interests me almost more than any other, he said, is the story of the two men who vere walking along one morning talking about Jesus Christ, and a third joined them who proved to be the resurrected Christ, and he was pleased because he found them talking about him. It is very helpful to let our minds dwell on Jesus Christ, and let us do this aften, that we may become big men in use- fulness and service, LITTLE GIRL DROWNED IN TANNERY CANAL Ruth Meinhardt, ¥ years oid, daugh- ter of Mrs. W. H. Johnson by her first marriage, was drowned Saturday af- ternoon some time after: 3 o'clock in the canal back of the tannery on| North Main strect, and her body was fcund about 9 o'clock that night in! the canal in four feet of water.

Some boys of the neighborhood reported to the po- lice that they raw her about 3 o'clock playing alone and picking flowers near the canal. Police help to find the girl was sought about 9 o'clock and Officer Pat- rick Murphy was sent from police headquarters with a- powerful portable electric searchlight to help Sergeant John H.
