THE LYNcH-HAaGEETY ENcoUNTER-THE SAM
CULINARY DISCUSSION IN A BROADWAY BAR
nooM-rHE POLICE WITHOUT EVIDENCE.
Thomas NJ. Lynch, the proprietor OF restaurant
at No 81 Nassau street, and Edwin ~ Haggerty, at
one time ianitor OF the New Court House and we'll
known also on account alleged connection with
The stealing and burning OF tho vouchers or which
crime he was Indicted but not convictedj, stood be-
fore the bar Of Justice at Jefferson Market Court yes
terday morning awaiting the calling OF their names
by the magistrate Their elegant garments were
freely bosprin Ked with blood aud their coats wero
buttoncd their cnn to hide, II possible, the CORY
appearance Of their wonted hne and immaculate
linen. Mr. Lynon's nose was covered with strip OF
plaster the ends OF which extended under hts eyes,
ana the signs of ugly cash wero visible
side of his forehead ornansnted with white plastor,
and his LETT ego was very much dscolored. An ac-
count OF tho struggle between these two men in
Thomas Galiaghers saloon, No. 1,109 Broadway, has
already published but further particulars regard
ing it were developed yesterday The fght II seems,
grew out OF the political discussion to the respec
tive merits of Augustus Sche and John Morrissey.
Thomas Lynch offered to bet 500 that John Norris
sey would be elected by Two thousand majority
and Haggery, in u sneerng way, told him he had bet
ter put his money mis- pocket and not throw u away
foolishiy. Lynch then accused Haggerty OF ingrat-
tude toward his avort Morrssey and said that were
1t not for the efforts of the latter gentleman he tHag
gerty) would have been tried and convicted for his as
sault on Thomas Il. Ferris two years before

Haggerty replied stn more bitterly to Lynch and
the latter then struck HagRerty stunning blow.

It Lynch cinched with him aud the pair fought around
the premises till both ell through glass door and
sustained cuts about their heads. They rolled
over floor, where Ly nch endeswored to pinion
Hasgerty, but successful, the latter managing
II is alleged TO get his revolver out OF his pocket
from too close contact with which weapon Lynch re
treated Haggerty made two attempts 70 shoot Lynch
but the powder being damp either from the blood
that was wing copiousy IRON his wounds or from
perspiraton the pistol merely snapped. Fortunately
before any further damage could be done by either
arrived and took both men TO the Thirtleth street
station house. They refused to make any complaint
against each other but were locked up for the night
Yesterday morning when they were formally al.
ragned before Judge Morgan. officer John IL. Genore
was asked by that magistrate what charge he had tc
prefer, and answered with some hestaton:-
II suppose dIsorderiy conduct"

Il saw nothing OF it," answered the officer; II only
know what see.n
SWELL SIR 1t was your duty, especially tho duty
OF captain your precinct, TO bring the case here
shape and to get what evidence is necessar,
hold these men. suppose Will have 10 call The
reporters AS witnesses They managed TO learn good
deal about II last night"
CRITICISM FROM THE BENCH.
Judge Morgan very indignant and further ex
pressed himself this point 10 the effect that II wal
useless for tho people calling the Court TO punish
political brawlers when the police actually refuse
do their manifest duty In collecting the necessary
w,serane wre,ci,s cot into brawl over on Tenth
| avenue there would DO whole crowd OF witnesses
ready 10 be examined and the captain would appear
III person to take charge OF the case. But becaus,
these have certain amount OF so-called potica
influence no case can be made against them"
The Judge then required the officer to make the fol
lowing affidavit IN order to show to the pubic th,
futile testimony brought him in this case, and tina
the frequeut discharge OF political brawlers was not
due their influence over the magistrates:-
