Cutting Affrays and Other Disturbances
of Sunday Night.
Soldiers of Transport Rio de Janeiro Badly Hurt
Another Soldier Stabbed Bj a Sailor
Dilemma of Police.
Eamanuwai has always been a
district where vice and filth have
gone hand in hand and reigned
supreme but the plaoo is becom
ing so bad just now that it will
soon bo a matter of stationing a
small squad of police there during
Saturday and Sunday nights.
There were three ooourronces last
night that would Beam to demand
this.
Early in the evening a couple
of soldiors from the Transport
Rio de Janeiro called in at a
Chinaman's store in Eamanuwai.
One of tbo follows got into a quar
rel with the Mongolian and the
latter, grabbing a rawr, started
after him.
The soldier was accompanied
by another, Buokley by name.
Both ran away. In turning a cor
ner Buokley dropped bis bat and
stopping to pick it up, saw his
oomiade run ahead of bim. Al
most at the same moment he fell
to tbe ground with a sharp pain
in his back Turning, he saw the
Chinaman in question disappear
in an alley. Assistance arrived
Boon after and the soldier was
taken to the transport. Upon ar
rival there' it was found that the.
razor baa out from tbe shoulder
diagonally across the baok, mak
ing a out oc ii inches and expos
ing tbe bono in lome places.
A corporal's guard in oharoo of
an officer and accompanied by a
policeman went to Eamanuwai
immediately in Beach of the Chin
aman bat be could not bo found.
Had tho fellow been caught by.
the
soiaiers n, mignt nave gone
very hard with bim as the soldiers
were very. m no h incensed. Anoth
er soaob will be made to day.
A little later on a soldier and a
Bailor got into an argument.
Harsh words were used and tho
sailor palled a knife. The soldier
ran away but, just as bo was cros
sing tho bridge of tbe alley back
of Eaumakapili oburoh, he was
stabbed in tbo baok. Ho to was
removed to Lis transport. For
tunately tbe wound is not bad.
The sailor has not been caught.
The third ooourrenoe was one
in whioh soldiers and a burly
negro, a former sailor, figured.
The latter was talking with Borne
native women when several sold
iers arrived on the eoene. They
insisted that the negro'had insult
ed tbe women and began to call
him vile names.
The latter Bays he walked away.
Tbe soldiers followed and again
called bim vile names, One of
tbo fellows struck him and be re
taliated. "Then several others
jumped him and he drew a knifo.
Retreating tobis room.be remain
ed there with the knife in bis
hand. Wbeu Patrolmen Bryan
and Madradd arrived ho thought
they were soldiers there to do him
harm and would not go outside.
Lieut. Opunui who went to tho
plaoe says the negro bad tho pat
rolmen down when he arrived.
It was necessary for him to uso a
olub before tho negro would relax

The case will come ud in tho
