THE LATEST HOBOKEN OUTRAGE.

The greatest efforts have been made in of,cial
circles in Hoboken to screen the member OF the
City Council who attempted In collnsion with a
policeman to perpetrate an outrage on strange
young girl who had just arrived from Baltimore in
quest OF her two brothers. Public Indignation is
now at fever heat. The Police Commis-
sioners, who at first took no notice OF
the case, have accordingly determined TO sift the
matter to the bottom. They have obtained the
name or the offender, but they keep 1T secret. He
not only assaulted the girl by dragging her into
vacant lot, till frightened from his villanous pur-
pose by the approach OF a milk man, but he carried
OF her hat and shawl, and tore away the pocket OF
her dress, containing a few dollars, all she pos
sessed. And yet police sergeant committed her to
q cell, where sne WAS Kept during the pleasure Of
the police administration, while not one OF those
who transgressed against her has been made
amenable TO justice. The investigation by the
Police Commissioners next Monday evening may
clear up the mystery surrounding the case. Sew
eral prominent citizens declared TO a HERALD re-
porter yesterday that the course OF the Police
Commissioners in cases OF this kind has made the
name OF H0boken a byword and a repfoach.
