Miller, in a jealous frenzy, succeeded in slashing his wife six times with a pocket-knife in their room at the Alameda Hotel on Park street last night. | Had the enraged invalld been physically | able to accomplish it, murder might have | been done. It was only after a desperate struggle that the woman escaped from the knife and clutches of her maddened | spouse. As a result of the bloody en- counter she will be disfigured for life. | Thus far Mrs. Miller has refused to swear to any charge against her husband, but he is under police surveillance, ' It was nearly midnight when Police Of- ficer William Wahmuth was detailed to investigate a reported stabbing affray at the Alameda Hotel. When the patrolman arrived there he found Mrs. Miller in the { kitchen of the establishment, attired in her night dress and endeavoring with ‘a handkerchief to stay the flow of blood from two long, deep gashes In her fore- | head. She was also bleeding from four other cuts about the eyes and ears. She | informed the officer in reply to a ques- | tion that her husband had inflicted the wounds and that the cause was 2 row | that concerned nobody else. Mrs. Miller | said that she would make no complaint | against her spouse and that she would | not prosecute him. . When Officer Wahmuth entered the | room where Miller was he discovered the latter lying on a bed, bespattered with blood and exhausted from the exertion | put forth in wielding the knife on his wife. Miller s d to the policeman that his wife spent his last dime for liquor and that when he upbraided her | for doing so and for staying out late, she | retorted that she would leave him in the morning. This assertion, Miller said, #0 enraged him that he reached for his pocket-knife on-a table near the bedside | and stabbed his wife until she broke rrom his grasp. Miller told the officer that he did not know what he was doing at the time and regretted if he had injured his wife. Dr. L. W. Stidham was summoned and he dressed Mrs. Miller's wounds. Miller is a painter and has residea nere for several months. His wife is a comely woman about 2§ years of age. For the | last three weeks Miller has been confined | to his bed by rheumatism.

Through the collision between a north- | ‘ bound electric car of the Post and Tenth | streets line and a west-bound car of the | | Geary-street railway, which occurred last | | evening ag 8 o'clock at the corner of | Geary and Leavenworth streets, Miss | | Etta Kammis suffered fractures of both | legs below the knees, in addition to sev- | | eral superficial cuts and briiises. The unfortunate young lady, who re- | sldes at 85 Geary street, was returning | to her home and occupied a seat on the | dummy of the cable car. From all that can be learned, the blame for the accident seems to rest on P. E. Kisner, the motorman of the electric car. The electric cars in approaching Geary street ascend quite an mncHne and move but slowly. The cable cars have the right of way at the crossing and It appears | to nave been the failure to remember | this fact on the part of Kisner that was responsible for the accident. The Geary-street car was crossing | Leavenworth strect at a slow rate of speed when the electric car, without | warning, crashed into the dummy. The | motorman applied his brakes and re- versed the current, but could not avert the collision. Miss Kammis was struck by the front | of the Post-street car and hurled to the pavement. A physician was called arf upon examination it was found that botn legs had been broken and blood was flowing from several cuts. She was re- | moved to her home and later to a sani- tarium, where she now lies in a critical condition as a result of the shock. | Motorman Kisner was arrested by Pa- | trolman McManus and booked at the City Prison on a charge of battery. He was | immediately released on bail and ad- mitted that he was responsible for the | collision. William Hopkins was the con- ductor in charge of the Post-street car, No. 702, and A. Cox was the gripman on | the Geary-street car, No. 365. | et e a5 Do Not Miss the Chance.
