Especial Telegram to the Globe.
CHICAGO, Jan. 16.-A rather stylish young
man rushed into Justice Hammers court
room late yesterday afternoon, exclaiming,
excitedly: II want warrant. Give me
warrant"
''Who for?" asked the justice.
u. FL. McVicker, proprietor of McVick
er's theater. want him arrested right
away, before he goes home"
"What is the matter with you and Mr..
McVicker?" said the justice, still curious.
"He struck me, sir; struck me in the face
few moments ago. My name is L. H. Gros
yer, am ticket broker, or scalper, as they
call Us. 1 was standing on; the sidewalk
near the theater on Madison street, in
front of my own Office, selling tickets for
q concert which is soon to take place,
when he came up to me and told me to get
away from there and not to try to sell
tickets right at the box Office of his theater.
replied that was standing upon my own
ground, and that would not move a peg
until was through with my business. He
gave me push, and 1 told him not to put
his hand on me. This made him mad, and
he struck me in the face" said the irate
scalper, placing the tips of his fingers on
the sides of his head, and looking at them
as if he expected to find blood, but there
was none.
"What did you do to him? Did you
strike back?' asked Justice Ham mer.
''Oh, no. I did not touch him. You
know he is fully sixty years old, and I felt
that it would be disgrace to strike him.
The blow got was enough to have driven
me to it, but managed to restrain myself.
1 would have had him arrested on the spot
but there was no policeman in sight. do
dot care so much about the pain as for the
indignity of the thing"
The warrant was issued but not served,
Mr.. McVicker having gone home.
The facts really are that Nc
Wicker demonstrated with Grover, who
was selling opera tickets in front of the
theater yesterday, and on receiving an i'm

FIRE AT ALBANY.
New YORK, Dec. 16.-Tweddle hall at
Albany burned this morning. The fire
started in McCammon's music store under

116 on North Pearl street. The lower sto-
ries were devoted to stores and
