Daugherty, druggist and ex-prize fighter, of Arlington Heights, Hl.’ came here today to attend the fun-, eral of bis brother Albert Daugher-* ty, who was killed in a football game at Henderson, Ky., last Saturday, and announced that he would demand the arrest of the players on both teams in the hope that, the, game might be stopped. Charles Daugherty was formerly a member, of the local Y. M. C. A., and aev-: oral years ago, when it was an-s nounced that'he was to meet Petera Maher in the prize ring, he was. warned by the association to keep out of their Quarters. His brother was playing with the local Y. M. C. A. when he sustained fatal injuries. William Daugherty, a theatrical man of New York, and a brother of the dead football player, and a sister, Miss Jeanette, are both in a serious condition as the result of the shock of Daugherty’s death, and it is feared the brother will not recover. 1
