Union and Non-union Men Fight
Martin Kelly, a non-union conductor on the Grand street line to Newtown, was assaulted Tuesday night by Patrick Stein, a carpenter. Stein came up behind Kelly and struck him on the head, inflicting two scalp wounds. A fight followed and Kelly shot Stein in the head. Both men were arrested by Capt. Methven. Judge Monteverde held Kelly in $1,500, and Stein in $750 bonds.
