RIGHT AGAINST MIGHT.

Oficer TibbItt's Severe Tussel With Three
Drunken Men The Oficer Comes Out
First Best.
About 30 o'lock last evening police
officer Tibbett noticed Michael Kelley, who
was under the influence of liquor. amusing
himself at Fourth street wharf by dipping a
small boy into the water for the fun OF hear
ing the boy scream the tide being very high
il was an easy matter for Kelley to stand on
the wharf and dip the little fellows legs into
the water, and ordered Kelley to desist, at
the same time taking the boy away from
Kelley, who demanded with an oath what
he had to do with it. The officer
proceeded to show the inebrate what he had
to do with 1t by arresting him. The prisoner
resisted violently and chung to a lamp post
and at the same time three of Kelley's com
panions jumped at The officer and succeeded
In breaking his hold upon his prisoner, and
two of them, Nathaniel B. Hill, and Mahloh
Lukens, held the officer while Kelley struck
him several times in the face, and others
were also kicking and beating him. The
officer then drew his blackjack aud strut k
one of his assailants, bringing him to his
knees, and appeared to be in q fair
way to clear himself from his
assailanss when his blackjack was
snatched out of his hand. An attempt was
then made by the men to throw the officer
overheard, when Augustus Sheu, re-
porter of the Freie PresSe, interfered to pro.
tect the officer and was also knocked down,
but returned to the assistance of the officer.
The officer then drew his revolver and
threatened to put bullet into the first man
who interfered, which had the desired effect,
and with the assistance of Peter
Quinn, who had also come to the
officers aid, Kelley was marched to
the hall with Hill and Lukins following in
the rear threatening all sorts Of vengeances.
They followed the officer into the hall, q
foolish p, ,oceeding, and were provided with
their friend Kelley. The three were given a
hearing before Squire O'Neill this morning
and fined $40 and costs each.
The officer during the melee sustained a
very black eye and this morning complains
of severe pain in his right side where he
thinks he was kicked by his assailants, who
atte npted to wind him.

Reports That Increase the Danger of n
rupture Retween France and China.
LONDON, Sept. 1l.-Reports of rioting in
Canton Lave created great sensation in all
circles at Paris, and will, it is feared, result
In collision between the French and Chi
nese. Dispatches from Hong Kong say the
mob at Canton burned the houses of several
European merchants, and also their wharves
causing great CONSERVATION among the
foreign residents, most of whom sought re-
fuge on board vessels in the river.
The mob, it is said, threw the contents of
the buildings which they attacked upon the
wharves and looted them. No violence was
offered 10 persons, and force of Chinese
troops was called out, which quickly dis
persed the rioters. The natives are so ex-
cited against foreigners that a renewal OF
the trouble is momentarily expected. On
the receipt of the intelligence at Hong Kong
several gunboats were Immediately sent to
Canton to afford protection to the foreign
merchants.
