A MIxED-UP CASE OF ASSAULT AND
BATTERY Three men, Arthur Mullen, James
Tumelty (said to be Constable of the Seven
teenth Ward), and another man, name unkno wn,
went into a lager beer saloon on Girard avenue,
near Seventh street, and asked the keeper to
| give them drink. He refused, supposing from
| the manner and appearance of Mullen that they
| were disordeTly characters. They then as
| saulted him, and when his wife undertook TO
| 90 between her husband aud his assailants, they
turned their attention TO her, and used her very
| roughly. Officer Shields rushed IN when the
| disturbance was at its height and arrested Mul-
| len. Tumety told the officer that Mullen was
| his prisoner. and undertook TO rescue him from
| the officer, who sprang his rattle, calling an
| other to his assistance. The two officers had a
| running fight with the three desOeradoes until
| Sergeant McGee. of the Seventh District, ap-
| peaTed, when Mullen and Tumelty were taken
| into custody, and the other man escaped. They
| had hearing before Alderman Fitch, who held
Mullen in $1,000, and Tumelty in $500 bail to
| answer.
