His assailant was James O'Malley,

'Scotty" fell, and since then he has
been tenderly cared for by Dennis J.
Cummins, around whose places the
njured man has frequently worked.
Yesterday Dr. Fulton, whose services
had been retained, said that apparent

fractured, as his breathing and eyes

pecilic nature. At all events the
wounded man appeared to be in
pretty bad shape and fears were ex
pressed over his condition.
O'Malley, who struck "Scotty," was
later arrested by Police Officer

Then an odd thing , happened."
Janssen rushed in on one of the dark
skinned foreigners and was "promptly
laid on his back. He had met a Tar
tar in the apparently inoffensive for
eigner from the land of dreams and
strange things. Again Janssen, who
is a powerful and active man, with
the brawn that life on the river gives,
rushed in, and again he was laid on
his back after a fierce struggle that
lasted only for a moment. Some said
the Hindu threw him by tripping,

of it happened so quickly and vicious
ly that the accounts differ. For the
third time Janssen clinched his an

He began to slowly crush and choke
the life out of him. The other Hindus

Janssen darted into'onc of the near

he jumped into the pack of men be

skin. Une man had the end of a
finger almost slashed off. Another
was cut about the head and face half
a dozen times. Besides several minor
cuts another received a long, vicious
cut along the jaw, which, had it
struck a few inches lower, might
have severed the juglar.
A great crowd collected m a trice
and Janssen retreated with his bloody
knife into a neighboring place, where
he was later found by the police
officer.
Three of the Hindus, after all of
them had wandered about in their
bloody condition through the unsym
pathetic crowd for a time, were di
rected to the office of Dr. Estes,
where the physician worked for a
couple of hours in sewing up their
wounds. The Hindu with the bad cut
along his jaw was sent to bis home;
