SHOT BY HER SISTER
Shocking Occurrence in a Gates Avenue Household
Mrs. Ann CARBERRY Dangerously Wounded by Her Insane
Sister, The Result of Brooding Over an Imaginary Wrong
  A peculiarly sad case of shooting occurred last night in Gates 
Avenue, and the victim, a highly respected lady, now lies in a
dangerous condition at he home, and her recovery is a matter of
much doubt. The facts in the case are these:
  Mrs. Ann CARBERRY, 38 years of age, lives at the corner of 
Marcy and Gates Avenues with her husband and family. Mr. 
CARBERRY keeps a saloon in the neighborhood. For the past
year a sister of Mrs. CARBERRY, Mrs. Ann WILKINS has been 
living with the family. The latter is 52 years of age and a widow.
For several months past she has shown symptoms of insanity, 
and has been under the care of Dr. COREY, the insanity expert.
Mrs. WILKINS is in possession of some property, and since she 
has become deranged her mind has run continually on the subject
and she has brought herself to believe that her sister Mrs. 
CARBERRY, was endeavoring to defraud her of it.
  About five o'clock yesterday afternoon MR. and Mrs. CARBERRY,
their young child, Mrs. WILKINS and a domestic ate dinner. Directly
the meal had been eaten, Mr.CARBERRY started off for his saloon
and the servant went to the cellar to procure a scuttle of coal, leaving 
Mrs. WILKINS, Mrs. CARBERRY and the latter's child alone in the 
room. When the domestic reached the cellar she heard the report of a 
revolver and hurrying back to the dining room found Mrs. CARBERRY
lying prostrate on the floor face downwards. She gave an alarm 
immediately, to which Officer DOWNEY responded. Mrs. CARBERRY 
stated to the officer that she had been shot by her sister Mrs. WILKINS.
The officer found the latter in her own room with a revolver in her hand 
and arrested her. Medical aid was summoned for Mrs. CARBERRY and
Dr. BURDICK and PALMER made an examination of the wound. It was 
found that the ball had entered the left side of the neck under the ear, 
and passed around to a point under the left eye. Dr. BURDICK probed 
for the ball and eventually succeeded in removing a portion of it.
  Captain McLAUGHLIN interrogated Mrs. WILKINS as to her reason for
having shot her sister and she responded that the latter was endeavoring 
to defraud her out of her property by having her (Mrs. CARBERRY'S)
name inserted in certain deeds. She said she meant to kill Mrs. 
CARBERRY, and was sorry that the wound had not resulted fatally, for 
then the newspaper reporters would interview her and she would be able
to tell the story of her wrongs to the public through the medium of the 
press. As to how she came in possession of the revolver she stated that 
several days ago she determined to kill her sister and purchased a 
revolver on Fulton Street. On reaching home and examining the weapon she 
came to the conclusion that it was to small for the purpose and that it would 
be necessary for her to secure a larger one. Accordingly she went to the 
store where she made the purchase and changed the revolver for a Smith & 
Wesson of larger calibre. This she placed in her pocket yesterday when dinner 
hour arrived, and waiting until Mr. CARBERRY and the servant had left the 
room shot Mrs. CARBERRY. Mrs. WILKINS 'idea that her sister is 
attempting to defraud her is based on nothing but her own insane imagination, and is 
denied by her own son.
  Mrs. CARBERRY stated to Captain McLAUGHLIN that she was sitting at the 
table when her sister approached her from behind and fired the shot. Today Mrs.
WILKINS expressed her disappointment that the shot had not had an immediate
fatal effect.

A  RANDOM  SHOT
How a Gang of Roughs Raised a Row and an Inoffensive Man was Shot for it. 
  James BIDWELL, of 515 Manhattan Avenue, a well known rough, accompanied by 
about eight others, went into O'HARA'S saloon, corner of Manhattan and Green Street, 
last night about 10:30 o'clock. The barkeeper John RILEY, stopped serving liquor 
to them at the third round of drinks and demanded payment. This made the party 
under BIDWELL very indignant and they began an assault on RILEY. Bottles and 
tumblers flew from all directions, and BIDWELL seizing a stone matchbox, jumped 
upon the bar, threatening to kill RILEY, who fired his revolver, with his usual 
ill-luck attending a random shot. His bullet struck George MALLOY, a young man
who was not at all concerned in the disturbance. The wound inflicted is not 
supposed to be dangerous. Both RILEY and BIDWELL were arrested.

THE CARBERRY SHOOTING CASE
Mrs. WILKINS' Persistence in getting a pistol, Condition of her 
Sister.
  Mrs. Catherine CARBERRY, who was shot on Monday night 
by her insane sister, Mrs. Ann WILKINS, still lies at her residence,
corner of Marcy and Gates Avenues, in a precarious condition. The 
physicians have been unable to extract the bullet. It has been 
ascertained that Mrs. WILKINS purchased the first revolver, which
she thought too small to carry out her purpose, at a Court Street
store. The clerk who sold her the weapon gave her blank cartridges
with it, and for so doing was soundly berated by her when she 
called the second time to have the revolver changed for one of a 
larger calibre. She called at the place in all four times, on each
occasion wishing to make a new choice. The fourth time she was
told that she must keep the weapon she had or pay for another.
She then went to a Fulton Street store and purchased the weapon 
with which she shot her sister.

OFFICER KNIPE 'S BRAVERY.
A Special Report of the Fire in Grand Avenue Yesterday. The Officer to
be Commended by Commissioner JOURDAN.
  In accordance with an order made by Superintendent of Police, CAMPBELL,
Captain WILLMARTH, of the Fourth Precinct, has forwarded the following 
report in regard to the action of Officer KNIPE at the fire at No. 142 Grand
Avenue yesterday morning:
  Patrolman Wm. KNIPE, of my command, reported that at 3:40 A.M., while 
on patrol duty, he discovered smoke issuing from the second story of 142 
Grand Avenue. He immediately ran there and entered the front door and ran
up stairs to the second story, where the smoke was so dense that it drove him 
back. He then entered the room on the first floor and helped Mrs. Bridget
WHELEHAN, who occupied the floor, to the street, and then made another 
attempt to get into the rooms on the second floor, but was driven back by
smoke. He returned to the sidewalk, when a small boy told him there were 
children on the second floor. He then made another attempt to enter the rooms,
when he heard a man's voice calling him to come and help him for God's sake!
But the fire was burning so fiercely that he could not get into the room. He left 
went to the sidewalk where Mr. John LOFTUS, who occupied the second floor,
broke the window and threw his six children out to him. He caught the children 
in his arms. He then assisted Mr. LOFTUS and his wife out of the window, which
is ten feet from the sidewalk. The parties were all uninjured. The upper part of
the house was badly burned and without the officer's assistance the fire might
have been fatal to some of the occupants. The children's ages range from 
2 to 14 years. The officer's mustache was slightly scorched. I think the officer's
action in the matter very commendable.
  Commissioner JOURDAN is to issue an order commending Officer KNIPE'S 
bravery at the fire.

defense. He was convicted of manslaughter in the fourth degree.

A Brutal Father
Beating his ten year old son so badly as to necessitate his removal to the 
hospital--the police after the father
Mrs. Bridget MACKLINE, of No. 56 Main street, told the Third Precinct police 
an extraordinary story this morning.  She said that for months past her 
husband Owen had without the slightest cause been in the habit of brutally 
beating their ten year old son David.  She said that her husband seldom saw 
the boy, but that when he did he invariably treated him in a most cruel 
manner.  This morning, she said, when her husband got out of bed he called 
the boy, and without a word passing between them seized a heavy stick, with 
which he beat him.  The boy, in attempting to escape, fell over a pail and 
hurt himself severely.  He was barely able to accompany his mother to the 
station-house.  Ambulance surgeon CRADDOCK was summoned, and upon examination 
found that the boy's body and limbs were covered with bruises.  He was 
removed to the Cumberland Street Hospital.  Captain LEAVEY notified the 
Second Precinct police of the case and search was made for MACKLINE, but 
without success.  The Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children have

THE KNIFE.  Stabbing Affray In A Swedish Boardinghouse.
A sailor Severely Wounded During a Row that Followed a Joilification.
  While Officer TIERNEY, of the First Precinct, was standing on the corner of 
Smith  street and Atlantic avenue about half-past twelve o'clock last night, 
he was told that there was a man stabbed down the street in the Swedish 
boarding-house, Nos. 275 and 277 Atlantic avenue.  The officer hurried to the 
house, and when within a few rods of it met a man whose face and clothing 
were covered with blood.  The man was Frederick FULK, one of the inmates of 
the boarding-house, and he said he had been stabbed by John FLINK, a 
fellow-boarder.  FULK was suffering from three stab wounds in the left side 
of the face and the Three Cuts Running Into One made a frightful gash.
  Officer TIERNEY, accompnied by Officers HOWARD and BRADY, after sending for 
an ambulance, went into the house.  There they were told the following story: 
FULK is a sailor, who when ashore boards at the house where the stabbing 
occurred.  He returned yesterday from a voyage, and last night, with some of 
his fellow-boarders, was having a good time in the house.  FLINK is a 
machinist and was not one of the party.  About midnight he intruded his 
presence upon the others and seemed determind upon a row.  He eventually 
succeeded in making himself so obnoxious that it was determined to eject him. 
 Before carrying out their intention there was a rough and tumble fight, in 
which FLINK was badly bruised about the face.  The latter was finally put out 
and waited on the landing a few feet from the door.  FULK soon after came out 
and as he passed FLINK the latter made a lunge at him with the knife and 
followed this up with two other blows, inflicting three wounds.  FLINK then 
went to his own room opened the window and jumped out on a piazza, and then 
into the yard.  The officers searched for FLINK, and TIERNEY
Found Him Asleep
on a pile of wood in a kindling wood yard, adjoining the boardinghouse.  The 
prisoner was taken to the First Precinct Station-house and FULK to the Long 
Island College Hospital.
  The prisoner tells a story which differs from the above.  He says that 
FLINK and three others armed with knives entered his room and assaulted him.  
He defended himself, but had no knife.  As soon as he released himself he 
jumped from the window.  A man named WALLACE, who occupied the room with 
FULK, also escaped through the window.  FULK says they mistook him for 
someone else, but in the dark did not realize their mistake.
  Justice WALSH committed the prisoner to jail until Wednesday next for 
examination.  Ole CARLSON, an inmate of the house, says that FULK struck 
FLINK, knocked him down and kicked him, and chased him upstairs.  At the door 
of FLINK's room the latter in attempting to push FULK away was stabbed three 
times in the wrist.  He then went into his room and closed the door.  An 
attempt was made to break into the room, and there was a fight in the hall 
during which FULK was stabbed by one of his own friends.

the bride determined last week to make the tie doubly binding by being 
married again.  Mayor LOW accordingly tied another knot for the couple, but 
there was bound to be some mistake, so the person who made out the 
certificate of marriage dated it April 8, 1883, and the mayor signed it in 
that shape.  The bride, deeming the date skightly "too previous," proposes to 
ask the Mayor for another certificate.  The couple reside in South Brooklyn.

(which consists of his wife, two daughters and two sons, all of which children 
are of age) of a piece of ham that they had purchased from a butcher named SMITH, 
who keeps at the corner of Maujer and Agate streets.  They shortly afterwards 
were seized with illness, which yesterday had proved so serious as to cause 
them to call in the services of a physician.  Dr. Julius GRADINGER was sent 
to, and after examination of the patients gave it as his opinion that the case 
was one of trichinosis, the meat not having been sufficiently boiled.  The ham 
meanwhile had been conveyed back to SMITH, with the exception of a small 
portion, which was at once secured by the doctor for the purpose of examination.  
He, not, having, himself, a sufficiently strong microscope to detect the 
presence of the animalculse, to the sample of ham to Dr. LOEWENSTEIN. who 
will examine it with his powerful instrument.
  When the facts were made known to Health Commisioner RAYMOND that official 
telephoned to Meat Inspector HOBDAY to go to the butcher shop and make a 
thorough investigation and search for more bad meat.  Drs. DE LONG and FISK, 
Inspectors, were ordered to visit the shop to act in the interests of the 
Board of Health in case an order of complaint is necesary.
  The unfortunate family meanwhile are very sick, but the result is in doubt.

knife in his hand. I struck him and knocked him down, and then went to the 
Sheriff's office to get my pistol. When I returned to the saloon DAVIDSON 
came for me again, knife in hand. I grabbed for the knife and succeeded in 
catching hold of it, and in taking it from him, but I was cut on the small 
finger of the right hand, the flesh being laid open to the bone. Then I drew 
my pistol and beat him with it on the head until he became senseless and fell 
to the floor. I then carried the stuff away."

WANTED TO DIE
THREE UNSUCCESSFUL EFFORTS TO COMMIT SUICIDE
FOR THE LOVE OF LARRY--WHY A BROOKLYN GIRL ATTEMPTED SUICIDE BY JUMPING 
OVERBOARD AT HIGH BRIDGE.
        MINNIE SCHAEFER, 24 years of age, and a daughter of NICHOLAS 
SCHAEFER, a piano maker, living at No. 298 17th. street, this city, yesterday 
attempted to end her life by jumping into the Harlem River, near High Bridge. 
A boatman picked her up and was placed in charge of the police. She appeared 
to be weak minded. She stated that she was employed as a domestic in a family 
named GREENFIELD, in this city, and had an admirer whom she called LARRY, but 
whose full name she refused to divulge. In the same family was another 
servant named KATE, to whom she ascribes all her troubles. LARRY was in the 
habit of visiting her frequently, and the fellow-servant constantly 
interfered between them, warning her not to have anything to do with LARRY. 
KATE told her LARRY was a married man and was only seeking to betray her. 
This provoked her, and she and kate had numerous quarrels, until finally she 
became, as she said, tired of living. She left Brooklyn yesterday morning and 
crossing over to New York, took the elevated railroad on the West Side, and 
rode to the end of the route, and then wandered down to the High Bridge and 
dock and there jumpted into the water.
        She subsequently expressed sorrow for what she did, and promised not 
to repeat the attempt to life. In a letter which she left on the bank of the 
river, she attributed her desire for death to "LARRY and KATE". She has not 
been seen by her relatives two weeks. Before leaving home she said to her 
mother that if LARRY deserted her she would go wild. LARRY is LAWRENCE  
STONE, a grocer's clerk in 9th avenue. Miss SCHAEFER'S folks think she is out 
of her mind.
