4 wore. + upstairs to her room AN EPILEPTIC ATTACKED, — Cowardly Conduct of Police. man Aurley to a Half. Witted Girl, HE STOPS HER IN A HALLWAY, Only for a Rescue by a Neigh- bor Harm Might Have Come. A CROWD ORIVES HIM AW. The Affrighted Girl Thrown Into Convulsions and Her Nervous System Shocked. A story of a brutal outrage has Just been brought to light. ‘The victim fe Annie Schulteis, daughter of Mrs. Charles Schultels, a widow who keeps a Nttle grocery store at 3H East Fifty- first street, and has been supporting herself and her six children since the death of her husband three years ago. ‘The family live together on the second floor of the tenement-house above the store. Annle, who is the second daughter, is twenty-three years old, and has been a aufferer from eplleptic fits since she was. three years old. She is lying in a critt- cal condition at her home, and has not recovered from the shock,of the brutal treatment which she received at the hands of Policeman John H. Hurley, of the East Fifty-first street station, last Sunday night. The story of her terrible expertence ‘at the hands of this officer, as told by her mother and brothers, seems almost incredibie. Hurley has calied at the house several times since his attempted assault upon the girl, and has been mak- ing every effort to prevent her friends from appearing against him. He has admitted all the brutality charged upon him, giving as his only excuse that he was drunk and did not know what he | ‘was doing. ‘The details of the assault as gathered | from Mrs. Schultels and her neighbors are these: Annie, who 1s somewhat weak-minded owing to her long sufferings, 1s de- yoted to religion, and {s a member of St. Boniface’s Catholic Church, at Sec- ond avenue and Forty-seventh street. Last Sunday evening she went to ser- vice there alone, although her mother Bays she usually accompanies her when she goes out in the evening. About 8.30 she returned home, and was opening the halldoor, when she noticed @ policeman in uniform approaching her. He had been trying the doors of the grocery store and other shops adjoining. The policeman, who was Hurley, ap- peared to be under the Influence of Uquor. Accosting the girl he asked what she was doing in the hallway. She had opened the door and had entered and Was just about closing it. She repli that she lived there, and was going u, stairs to her family, Hurley her from shutting the door, and brutally told her to stay where she was, as he wanted to talk to her. ‘The poor girl in her fright did not re- Bly, but tried a second time to clowe the oor, Hurley forced his way in, and seizing her by the shoulders pushed her against the wall. Placing his hand over her mouth to prevent her screams from being heard he attempted to assault her, She struggled with the ruffian and tried to cry out, but he choked her so violently, at the same time threatening her with awful consequences if she made any noise, that she fell fainting to the floor. No one in the house had heard the struggle, but fortunately at that mo- ment Jacob Block, a neighbor, whose beer-bottling establishment is next door to Mrs. Schulteis’s grocery store, h pened to be coming down the ‘st from Becond avenue. The noise of the scuffle in the ad- Joining hallway attracted his attention as the door was open. In an instant he came to the rescue of the unfortu- nate girl, What he saw made him boil with indignation. “Get out of here, you scoundrel,” he cried to the policeman. “What do you mean by Insulting a ‘respectable girl like thac in her own doorwa: He grabbed Hurley by the dragged him to the street, group of persons had already wh Mrs, Schuitels and her family had been aroused by the unusual sounds and came ted. flocking ‘down the stairs.
