4 notorious character named John Harrigan
was the cause of great excitement on Four
and-G.half street, from c to f street southwest
yesterday afternoon, about four o'clock. lie
was decidedly the worse for liquor aud spelling
for fight, hut as he is noted bruiscr no one
cared 10 cross arms with him. Stumbling into
the store of Mr.. Bartholomew Whealcn, at the
corner of Four-and.a.half and c streets, he
made himself particularly obnoxious by his
loud and coarse language. Mr., WhoRau was
10th to sggIavate him, but finally, as q matter
of protection to his goods, which the unwcl.
come visitor was kicking and knocking around
rccklcs,ly, he was compelled to order him cut
liarligan's only reply was II TRADE of
the vIest kind Of abuse, and US
the proprietor approached him to
enforce his order he struck him q cruel blow
IN the face and followed it up with others.
The two men clnched, and Hariyan, with
the advantages of youth and strength. treated
his older and weaker adversary very roughly.

In his mouth aud was masticatinC them with
Il savage relish, when assistance arrived in tho
shape OF officer Block, who had been attracted
to tho scene by tue cries of murder" and
"holp" from the now helpless victim. Block
placed the man under arrest, but found great
trouble in getting him to tho statiOn.house
IlOrTigan turned on the newcomer with
defiance and refused to so with him.
They got into tho street aud another
and more desperate fight than tho
first ensucd, for the men were moro evenly
matched. The officer had to resort to his
baton, but did not succeed in bringing his
prisoner to proper suhjecton until his uniform
had been torn from him in shrCds aud his face
aud body bore marks of several hard knocks
Ilarrigan did not escape uninjurod, for tho
baton was broken over his head. All this time
the two were gradually nearing the station
but 1t is not known how the fight would have
terminated had not Officer LOane came to
Blocks assistance. Tho case will come up In
the Police Court to-day.
