A despatch from Niagara Falls, Cnt., says: At Niagara Falls . Y., on Wednesday morning about 1 o'clock Officers Magner and Mec- Cormick of the police force were shot at and wounded by an un- known man. Officer McCormick has since died from his injuries, and Magner is seriously hurt. The two officers received information that a man had been seen flourish- ing a revolver on Main street, and they set out together to trace him. Opposite the International Hotel they met a man answering to the description given them, and one of the officers asked him what he had in his pocket. "I'll tell you in a minute," he replied, and immedi- ately pulled from his pocket a re- volver and fired, fatally wounding McCormick, the bullet severing the artéry in his right arm, and se- verely injuring Magner in the right leg. The wounded officers were conveyed to the hospital, where McCormick shortly after expired. The noise of the shots brought a number of men to the spot, and the assailant escaped into the Reserva- tion. Another man, James Henry, a bartender, was shot and probably fatally wounded on Wednesday morning in Niagara Falls, N. Y. by an unknown Italian. It is said the Italian tendered a bad coin for refreshment. Henry refused it, and the Italian shot him, the bullet lodging in his left lung. The doc- tors say that the wounded man may not live.
