SEVERAL. LIQUOR RAIDS,
POLICE MADE THREE SUCCESSFUL VISITS YESTERDAY.

Three Saloon Keepers and Seventeen Fre-
 quenters Arrested-Doors Broken Open
 Police Visited the Several Saloons in
 acks-Other Arrests Yesterday.
 The local police were kept busy yes terday looking after violators of the Sunday liquor law and as result of their efforts three men were arrested charged with selling liquor on Sunday and seventeen were arrested and locked up under the new law, which makes it an offense for any person found in a saloon during unlawful hours.
 The three saloonkeepers arrested were Frank McGuinness of 195 Hamilton street, Charles Fothergill of Water street and Forbes Place and Patrick Lee of Oak and Dow streets. The sa- loon at 195 Hamilton street is run by Patrick McGuinness, who is said to be one of the most persistent Violators of the Sunday liquor law, although the license for the saloon is in the name of his brother Frank. For several Sun days the police have been unable to get anywhere near his saloon, owing to the fact that he had number of sen tinels around, who informed him of the approach of the officers.
 Yesterday however, it was decided to adopt different tactics in dealing with the case in question. Accordingly about o'clock Officers Dargan and Williams of the Central station and LinSley and P. McKeon of the Grand avenue precinct dressed in citizens clothes got into a hack and were driven direct to the saloon. Upon their arrival there they broke open the door, which was barricaded with truck skids. Af- ter a minutes delay, during which the majority of those inside the saloon suc- eeeded in making their escape, the offi- cers succeeded in effecting an entrance and found John J. Fox and William B. Brennan, who were arrested, charged with being found in saloon on Sunday. Frank McGuinness was also arrested, charged with violation of the Sunday liquor law All were subsequently re- leased under bonds.
 After making their successful visit to
 this saloon the same officers continued their ride in the hack to Charles Fother- gill's saloon at Water street and Forbes
 Place. Here they found a wholesale
 business being carried on and arrested Michael F. Keegan, Joseph Lyons, Thomas Welch, Daniel Breen, John OBrien, James Finley, Robert D. Byers, Patrick Hyde, Edward Clemmons and Gilbert Cannon, all of whom were found in the saloon Fothergill was also ar
 rested, but subsequently, released on
 bonds. Fothergill was arrested August
 for the same offense.
 Shortly before o'clock last evening
 the same officers paid an unwelcome
 visit to Patrick Lees place at the corner
 of Oak and Dow streets. Here they found Lee carrying on lucrative busi- ness in "a room over the saloon. He was arrested, charged with violation of the Sunday liquor law and the fol lowing men, who were found in the
 place, were also placed under arrest
 Michael McGarry, Michael Tynan Thomas F. Reilly, Thomas F. McCar- thy, William T. Morton. All those ar, rested will be arraigned in the city court this morning.
 ASSAULTED A POLICEMAN. PatroIman William A. Rice of the Howard avenue precinct was badly cut about the head and face yesterday af- ternoon by a crowd of roughs while attempting to make an arrest. Shortly before 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon
 Rice placed Michael Mccarthy, who was very much under the influence ot liquor, under arrest at the corner ot Congress avenue and West street. A crowd immediately collected, among which were Maurice J. Reilly, Michae Casey, John Sullivan and John McCar. thy, brother of the prisoner They al
 once proceeded to attempt to take Me Carthy away from the officer and 8 free-for-all fight ensued. Rice, how ever pluckily held on to his man unti one of the crowd succeeded in getting his billy" away from him and struck
 Rice across the head with it, infiicting two clrts, one on the side of the face anG
 the other on the chin.
 Rice dropped to the ground from the
 force of the blow and let go his hol6 on Mccarthy. The other three imne' diately desisted and all four made theil
 escape, no one in the crowd attempting to arrest their flight. Up to a late hour last night none of the quartet ha6 been arrested. Rice's injuries while painful are not serious, but it will bt several days before he will be able tc do any duty.
