PATROL WAGON NEEDED.

PRISONERS Too Drunk or Too Stubborl
Must Now be Carried.
By the Standards Special Wire.
BUTTE, July 17.-Among the many met
ropolitan institutions for which urgent
need now exists i'm Butte is a patrol wagon.
The size Of the city and frequency of ar
rests makes such a wagon imperatively
necessary. Then, too, very often persons
are arrested who are too drunk TO walk or
else get stubborn and refuse to accompany
the officers without being absolutely
forced to do SO. A case of this occurred a
few nights ago when an officer attempted
TO arrest a couple Of drunken ~Finlandcrs.
The fellows closed in ION him and while
trying to take them 10 the station one at
tackled him with his teeth and almost bit
his arm off. Securing the assistance Of
another officer the man was dragged al
most the entire distance To- the station by
his wrists, the policemen being com
PEELED to use their nippers Ia
prevent him from doing them harm.
An alderman who saw the officers drag
the drunken brute was loud i'm his denun-
citation of the cruelty and censurcd the
officers in the strongest language for re-
sorting To such IA method OF securing "A
prisoner. Had the city owned n patrol
wagon the man could have been handled
without any difficulty and Officer Ander,
son would not be doing duty with an arm
swollen out of all proportions and suffer
ing from a wound as painful and danger
Gus as that inflicted by "A mad dog.
Still another benefit would accrue from
the possession of a patrol wagon. As oor
as an arrest would be mad the Officer
making il could summon III Y an,
wait with his prisoner until its arrival
This would remove the necessity of of
flcers leaving their beats to AXE prisoner
To the station. In doing the latter officer
are often compelled to be gone half al
hour, thus leaving their beats entirely un
protected and allow opportunities to oc
cur for farther disturbances or sven wors,
~oifenses.

BUTTE, July 11.-Galena alley vas the
scene of unusual excitement for n short
time this evening. John Quinlan and
Dan Shehan, were engaged in a fierce
aud bloody fight when Officers Cantwell
and Gebhart appeared in sight. Gebhart
was the first to reach the place and at
tempted to arrest the men. Quinlan all
nj once forgot his enmity for Shehan and
attempted TO assist him to escape by Crap
pling with the officer and throwing him Ia
The ground. Cantwell now arrived and
took n hand in the fracas.
by this time Shehan and Quinlan
had worked themselves into "A
frenzy and resisted the officers with all
their might, striking and kicking them
like maniacs. Somebody blew a police
whistle aud in csponsc to the call Officer
Bender fastened To the alley and assisted
his fellow officers.
IL was only after the two fellows had
been rendered helpless by having the
nippcrs placed on their wrists that they
ceased their struggling and accompanied
the Ulcers. Sheha was much the worse
of the two and even after his arrival at
the station IL took several men To search
and lock him up, while all the time he
yelled and cursed with the ficrccness Of n
mailman.
