UNCONSCIOUS FROM BEATING Woman Covered With Marks of Attack, on Recovering Her Senses Attempts to Make Escape for the Man Possible--He is Caught Three weeks ago Jack Keeley was released from the penitentiary, where he had served a term for a brutal assault ou his wife. Last night he again attacked the unfortunate woman, pounding and kicking her fiendishly. Not satisfied with beating his wife, Keeley administered a few blows to his 4-year-old son, who clung to his mother's skirts.

Acting Detective Courneen and Patrolman Heintz, of the Sixth precinct, arrested the notorious wife beater in 8 West avenue saloon three hours later. Keeley wanted to whip the policemen, but after he had looked both men over he decided he would defer the battle. A big policeman did not look 90 easy as a half-starved woman.

The physician administered stimulants and the woman revived. One side of her face was black and blue, and there was a large lump on her right temple. She had been kicked in the mouth, and several teeth had been loosened. She had received innumerable kicks in the region of the abdomen, and Dr. Snow was fearful at first that she might have internal injuries.

After receiving medical aid the woman gave her name as Reagan. She said she lived in Platt street, near Warehouse street. She said her husband was a "bum" and refused to work. They had had a quarrel and he had assaulted her. She absolutely refused to go to the hospital, saying she would return alone to her home as soon as she felt better.

Dr. Snow realized that the woman was trying to cover up some one, so he returned to the hospital and informed Captain Zimmerman. All the precincts were notified to look out for Reagan, and Detective O'Brien detailed Acting Detective Courneen to investigate the assault. Courneen went to the Litchfield street house and learned that the man who committed the assault was none other than the notorious Keeley.

Since being released from the penitentiary three weeks ago, Keeley and his wife, the little boy and a year-old baby have been living at No. 162 Platt street. Keeley is a huckster, but doesn't follow his occupation much of the time. He is too busy drinking, when out of jail.

Yesterday his wife went to the Litchfield house to do some sewing. Her sister, Ellen Burns, who married Dennis Keeley, a crippled newsboy and brother to Jack, lives there. Keeley was drunk yesterday, and when he learned that his wife was at her sister's place he became highly indignant. Going there, he called her outside, and without further ceremony showered punches and kicks on her. He desisted only when she fell unconscious.

He also kicked the 4- year-old boy. Keeley is 30 years old. Of his life he has spent six years, six months and eleven days in the Monroe County Penitentiary, necording to the figures he gave Detective Courneen last night after he was locked up. His wife was at one time a fairly good-looking woman, but the beatings she has received since she became Mrs. Keeley have greatly changed her.
