Two Women Badly Cut.

 

JACKSONVILLE, Fla., Aug. 11.—Meagre details of a cutting affray at Orlando, Fla., reached this city last night. It seems that two brothers named Johnson, while drunk, went to a house of ill-fame and were refused admittance. The story runs that they burst in the door, were resisted by two women occupants, and drew knives on them. One woman, known as Lottie, was cut across the bowels so that her intestines fell out. The other, called Alice, was severely cut about the hips and stomach. Both men were arrested, and put under $5,000 bail to await the result of the injuries inflicted. It is thought that Lottie will die.
