CAPT. FARRIER ARRESTED.
a PRISONER IN HIS OWN STATION
HOUSE.


The Complainant, Arrested Twice, seeks
For Revenge-what the Captain Says
Held in $500 Bail TO Appear Before the
Grand Jury.-An Old Political Feud,
Police Captain Frederick I. Farrier, of the
First Precinct, was arrested last night at
nine o'clock for assault and battery on
Thomas Trotter. The reporter learned
that the warrant had been issued by JUS
tice Weed, and that gentleman was imme-
diately sought. He was caught just as he
was leaving Captain Farrier's Office.
''What's the charge against the Captain p

assault and battery on Thomas Trotter.
The specifications in the charge are that

of Officer White, in the Sixth Precinct of

an unprovoked assault on him.
sWnat action has been taken in the mat
ter ?" further querried the newspaper man.
'sHorace Farrier has given bail in $500
for the Captains appearance before the
next session of the Grand Jury"
Captain Farrier was next sought for his
version of the arrest. That worthy official

complaint was a base lie; clear case
of perjury.
'What do you assign as the motive at
this late day?'
81 know of ne motive. I FIRST heard of it
this afternoon. I know one thing, how
ever, that before he gets through with it,
Tom Trotter will regret this thing.
The truth of the matter is that Tom
Trotter and Captain Farrier have hereto
fore, at least till the Spring of '84, been
fast political friends. At that time Irotter
was arrested by Sergeant-then officer
White for violation of the registry laws.
While in custody of the officer Trotter
charges the assault was committed. Trot-
ter has always credited Captain Farrier
with having peen at the bottom of that
arrest, and, consequently, has not felt
over friendly toward him. Yesterday he
was arrested again for violation of the
election law in having adjourned the Elec-
ton Board in his polling precinct, con-
trary to law, before the canvass of the
votes was completed, and, feeling con-
vinced that his arrest was ordered by Cap
tain Farrier,t soon as he was released on
bail he Immediately sought revenge by
preferring the charge of assault. Cap
tain Farrier insists that he had moth
ing whatever to do with the arrest.
and both he and Chief Murphy say
that the arrest was made in compliance
with an order issued by Chief Murphy,
several days, before election, requiring
strict compliance with the provision of the
law which Mr. Trotter violated.
The trial will no doubt elicit some very
spicy and interesting facts as to the
method in which elections In this city are
conducted.
