containing some eort Of an attack on Capt
Willialns-"Giubbor' Williams, these enemies
OF his delight to call HIM. 1t always makes me
indignant, not that | have any particular aver
Sion to seeing people proddsd up a little, jour
haissticatly, now aud tnen-for | haven't. This
shows that APPEARANCES are decsIving, because
nobody would dream that l liked to see folks
hauled over tho Goals now and then. But this
attack on Capt. Williams is played out. It
has made him celebrated in New York, and, in
deed, parity much all over tho country. To IL
sensitive man that kind of celebrity wouldn't be
very welcome, perhaps. But Williams is one
OF those chaps who are moved by the
sublime spirit of don't-care-a-cuss; aud
the more lie ic railed into, the less it worries
him. He is universally held up to the public
gaze a. a ruf'ian of tho deepest dye, always
going around with the trunk of a tree in his
hand, looking for somebody TO thump over tho
head with it In reality he is-well, I'll tell
you about HIM. A few years ago James Cor
don Bennett, full Of animal spirits, and alco-
hollc spirits as we'll, was going down Broadway
aoout / O'Clock one morning in q carriage.
The horses were running at the top Of their
speed, and Bennett WAS yelling at the apex of
his voice. You have probably heard of men
dong such things in mining camps,
but you probably share the popular
prejudice against introducing similar customs
into civilized life. Well, Capt Williams, then
an unknown officer, heard the racket and
stopped the horses. Bennett pushed his red
face out OF the window. and when the captain
told him to so qnictly home like a respectable
citizen, he swore and shouted that he would
do just as he pleased. Capt Williams said ne
guessed not, aud Bennett replied that ho was
the owner of the Herald and wouldn't be die
tated 70. Williams said he diun't give a darn
who he was; he must go home or to the station
house. There was a brief fight, and James
Gordon Bennett, limp as a rag from one of the
best thrastnngs ever administered to anybody,
spent the night in a cell. He swore he would
"break" Capt Williams, and with the help Of
the Sun he began his crusade. Williams had
the worst work in New York to do, and when
ever there was a riot his men would always
be found in the front row. Consequently.
II anybody got hurt, the Herald and
Sun were mighty careful to siys Williams the
credit of having done the clubbing. After a
while they got 10 crowding Williams pretty
hard, and one day he retained as his coun-
sci a notorious lawyer who was on the staff of
the Sun. 1t is an odd coincidence that the
journalistic luminary Immediately ceased to
attack Capt Williams. About this time he was
transferred 10 the street department, as a com.
promise, and the Herald let up on him, too.
He remained in the street department one
year. Meanwhile Lis precinct, which is the
worst III Now York, was placed in the hands of
another captain, and the rougns ran wild all
over 1t L. soon became evident that there
was only one man OH the force who
was capable Of managing that section
