RAYMOND JACKSON ROUGHLY HANDLEl
John Motcnlfe Ulil the Fighting , Ilelnt
I'roTokcd , , y the Alleged Conduct
of Ills Companion Toward
Ills Slitcr.
What was probably an attempt at murdo
occurred last night at 11 o'clock near tin
corner of Ninth and Plerco streets. The at
ray took place between two boys , Raymont
Jackson , aged 18 , and 'John Metcalfe , agei
.7. Jackson was struck four times on th
icad with a heavy paving hammer by Mot
calto and received four severe wounds , non
of which are serious.
The two families ot which the boys an
members are close neighbors , the Jackson
Ivlng at 811 Pierce street , and the Mot
calfes at 1111 South Ninth street. Ther
ms been bad blood between the two boy
'or ' some time , arising over Metcalfo's sla
ter. It had been reported to Metcalfo tha
Jackson had stated to companions that th
character of Metcalfo's sister was not abov
eproach and had boasted that ho had boei
ntlmata with her.
As soon as this report reached Metcalfo'
> ars he aworo vengeance. What added it
ils anger was the fact that several days agi
the sister ran away from home and Metcalt
suspected that Jackson know of her wherea
routs.
Jackson was ulttlng on the curbstone wher
; he affray took place , with five or six othe
lioys , when Metcalfe came up to him. II
immediately accused Jackson of knowlni
whcro the girl was , which Jackson denied
The two passed \\ords over the matter , am
finally Metcalto walked away , remarking tha
Jackson would not get homo alive. In a fov
moments ho returned , bending over as li
great pain.
USED A HAMMER.
When Metcalfe arrived directly In front o
him he suddenly raised up * and swung alot
a paving hammer , which ho had kept concealed
coaled by bending over. Jackson was look
Ing down at the pavement and Motcalf
struck him full on the top of the head. H
repeated the blow three times more befor
Jackson was able to get hold of him and Jerl
the hammer from his grasp. Metcalfo Im
mediately ran away.
Jackson remained conscious. Ho had fou
ugly cuts on his head. Each reached th
skull , but the bone was uninjured. Physl
clans said that It was almost a miracle tha
the skull had not been crushed , but the fore
of the blows was probably softened by th
hat which Jackson wore.
Metcalfo does not bear a good reputation
Although he Is only 17 years ot age , he ha
been away quite a long while , during whlc
he has traveled through the country. On th
other hand , Jackson has a good reputation.
The hammer with which Jackson wa
struck Is one ot the kind used in brcakln
paving blocks. It weighs two pounds. Whe
the affray wan over Metcalfe'9 father obtalne
possession of It and for a time refused t
glvo It up to Officer Arnold , but the latte
finally succeeded in getting It. The where
abouta of the boy could not be dlscovcre
last night , and It Is thought that ho will at
tempt to get out of the city.
Metcalfe's father Is an expressman and wa
arrested yesterday for soliciting at the unlo
depot.

Mayor Hlllls , when , asked by your corre
spondent what be was going to do about
pool selling nt tbo mile track at the June
meeting , Manager Davlcs having stated that
ho would do aa ho felt about the matter , the
mayor said :
"Nothing will change my action In the
matter ; I have taken no backward step and
will not do so. I am now , as always , In favor
of enforcing the laws on the statute books.
Whether pool selling Is gambling Is something
ot an open question among attorneys , and
doubt U entertained whether a conviction ot
any kind could bo secured under the statutes
of this stato. Last fall at the October meet
ing I asked the city solicitor for an opinion
on this point , and ho Inclined to the belief
that It was so doubtful a favorable result
could bo secured that It was scarcely worth
whllo to bring actions against the pool sellers
under the laws as at present existing. My
action wilt depend more on the law as ap
plied to the case than anything else. It
seems to mo to bo useless lo go Into litiga
tion over the matter .unless wo arc pretty
sure ot being able to bring about a satisfac
tory consummation. "
At the October meeting the church federa
tion secured the arrest of the chief of police.
police judge and aldermen and ono or two
other omclala on the charge ot buying pools ,
but they were never convicted , as neither
wcro the pool sellers , and the mayor Incline ]
to the belief that prosecutions by the city
would be useless. Tlio assistant city solici
tor believes pool sellers can bo Indicted for
gambling , which Is covered by the statutes ,
though pool selling U not specified as a form
of gambling which may bo prosecuted.

special ogcnt at the United States tabor
department at Washington , who Is looking
up labor strikes from 1SS7 down to and In
cluding tlio A. It. U. strlko of last sum *
incr , lu an Interview with tlio Dispatch
said :
"Von talk about tlio suontshops and liolci
In the ble cities , but I have seen places
over In villages of Wisconsin that arc Just
about as bad In every particular. I wai
amazed In the flrst place to learn of the lm
inctiso number and variety of factories In
Wisconsin. They had every kind of factory
of which I know anything , and1 the number
of children employed Is something wonder
ful. In the town of Oshkosh they had moro
children employed In proportion to the pop
ulation than any city In the east and south ,
and the. condition of many factories Is sim
ply awful. The children nro crowded Into
poorly ventilated and unsanitary rooms , and
the long and short ot It Is tholr lives are
coined Into dividends for the company that
employs them. Then como the cotton mills ,
where they employ children and keep thorn
at work cloven hours , a custom which has
been abolished years ago In every other
community. The factory Inspection laws ot
that state are a howling farce. The alleged
attempts at enforcing them are the merest
baby work.
"At the big bottling works at Mllwaukfo
they have 900 girls , ranging In ago from 11
to 19 years , employed , and that la the tough
est sight of all , for the roughness como *
right out on the surface. The children are
employed at bottling beer , and there IB no
limit to the amount they are allowed to
drink. The language the boys and girls USD
In shouting at each other , and the familiar
ity between the sexes shows that these are
merely prostitution factories , and nothing
moro or less.
"To talk about vlrtuo and purity In such
a place Is simply folly. The match factorlei
are just as bad , though , of course , the em
ployes are not half drunk all the time , and
not BO much of the rottenness appears on
the surface. I am to get both sides ot tha
story when a complaint Is made , that of th
employes as well as of the employers. Be
sides , I made some personal observations ,
and the conditions wcro worse In the Wis
consin factories than anywhere else I havt
been. "
MILWAUKEE , Wls. , Juno 1C. The charge !
made at St. Paul by Ethclbert Stewart , spe
cial agent ot the United States Labor de
partment , that child labor Is employed In
bottling works In this city , and that drunk
enness and Immorality exist there , are de
nounced as false and malicious by local
brewers. Gustavo Pabst and Secretary Hen-
nlng said tonight that no children under 14
years of age were employed , that no drunk
enness or Immorality existed , and that no
children worked In the bottling department.
They merely pasted labels on bottles. Fore
men and forewomen took especial pains to
guard against vulgarity and Immorality. Thl
departments referred to are always open it
