Editors Chicago Tribune:
In this evenings .zoanndz there Was notice
Of my arrest for obtaining money under false
pretencee.
Such was not the fact. I was arrested for
resisting an officer in the discharge Of bis duty,
because1 expostulated with him for striking
horse over the head with bis club. For 80
doing was fined. Some Of the city officials
Wishing e presume) TO- .rork up ia6, had q
number Of Witnesses in court, and then
tences was made; but the Witnesses them
Belyes hardly knew what they Wsre there for,
and no person appearing against me, 7 Was
discharged. Is there not enough legitimate
work for the police to do without seoTking up
ones House breaking night after night, and
