ALARMING lNCREASK OF CRIME AND RowOYIsM-
MORE OFFICERS AND OTHERS ASSAULTED AND
BEATEN.-At various times during the past month
the extent and nature OF crime ana rowdysm In this
city have reached alarming height as may be
from the fact that during the month OF August the
number OF arrests ran as high as 430. 1t
would seem from the experience Of the last
twenty-f0ur hours that this state OF affairs
mas increased rather than diminished for during
the hours from ten O'Clock on Saturday night until
like hour last night there arrested nearly thirty
with offences OF grave character. The chief one,
however, Is that Of assauting officers, which has OF

Claude Commarun officer Turbitt was set upon by
crowd OF miscreants his prisoner taken from him
and he himself seriously cut and beaten about the
face and head so as to incapacitate him for duty.
The rescued prisoner and two VI the alleged princ
pals, whose names are Philip DOnOhue and John
Manning, were subsequently arrested and lodged
in the lookup. Manning has since been bailed,
but the other two have been committed in
place in place in River street s occup Sed
by q family named Burns in the course
Of which several officers and persons were pretty
verely handled. David Burns his wife Mary and
his son John were afterward taken into custody and

One of the alleged rowdies, one John Riley was af.
forwards captured and lodged in custody. In this
instance the affair almost assumed the proportions
OF riot. At all events the Mayor was
out endeavoring to restore order. Later
still, about seven O'Clock, while an 0nlcer was
taking drunken man to the station, a fellow
named Thomas Walsh, as alleged, interfered at the
foot OF Market street. In this instance the officer let

above named into custody. In view OF these facts

10 O'Clock Sergeant Angle discovered
volumes of smoke issuing from the auction-
house of Messrs. Bowman & Stroock, on
Pearl street between Main and Cary. The
door was burst open, and nearly the entire
southern portion of the store was aoiaze;
The alarm was immedistely sounde d, ana
the fremen arrived in time TO save Inc
house from total destruction, which seemed
inevitable. There wasin the store, arranged
for sale this morning, very large stock OF
clothing, dry goods, boots, shoes, ETC., ana
these were nearly all damaged 80 much
as to render them almost valueless. Com
sidering that the house was not burned
down, more complete destruction conld
hardly have been accomplished. The loss,
it was said, could not be less than $50, 900,
upon which there was ample insurance.
This estimate, however, is the merest
guess work, and an accurate statement OF
the loss and insurance cannot now be
given,
