THEY CERTAINLY WANT SOMETHING
Several days ago we related how some evil
disposed person had ransacked the office of
Attorney General Field on Dryades street.
AS great quantity of papers was strewn
over the floor the conclusion was arrived at
that the invader desired to obtain some
documents. A pistol was about the only
article stolen. An investigation resulted in
nothing and the case wOs remembered ONLY
as small circumstance. The matter was re-
vived early Sunday morning By Isaac Bush,
porter for Colonel Field, reporting that
second attempt had been made to ransack
the office. Bush stated that on hearing an
unusual noise he shook his eyelids, only to
look down the muzze of familiar looking
revolver. Not liking the looks of things he
not only stood on the defensive but went in
Extensively. Having met the pistol man and
disarmed him he found another foeman,
this one having ferocious looking knife.
Bush made him drop it and then raised an
alarm, when the intruders travelled of in
great haste, leaving the pistol and Eat,
but the porter ha6 taken good look at she
Assaiante.
When information was given to the police
orders we're issued to hunt up the offenders,
and officer Lynch soon after marched in

NOT ALTOGETHER JUsT.-Last week, Off
Ger Corners, fifth precinct, was convicted
of the crime of falsely imprisoning Henry
Boyle. Connors, in arresting Boyle, did so
under orders from Captain Malone, then
chief OF detectives: Many complaints mad ID
bad men made the levee, from the French
market to Esplanade street. section to be
avoided, night and day. Several persons
had been robbed, and two or three gar
roted. The captain instructed patrolmen
to arrest the guilty parties, or those which
circumstances pointed out as suspicious.
Boyle was suspected and arrested. after
which, he caused Officer COnnors to be
arrested and tried for false imprisonment.
Of course, the above items could not be
given to jury in form to have much
effect, hence conviction. ConnOrs is re-
ported to be one of the best officers on the
force, and it is hoped he will be pardOned.
