which nearly terminated in a riot at
Grand and NEWARK streets, Hoboken,
was held yesterday afternoon before Re-
eorder McDonough. Ahlwardt, who was
only held upon the charge Of carrying a
concealed weapon, was found guilty and
the Recorder said he would impose the
tine later. The other prisoners, Samuel
Becker, who was arrested for assault
and battery, and NJ. j. Coin and Israel
Birnbaum, who were arrested for dis
orderly conduct, were all held under $500
bail each to await the action of the Grand
Jury.

tons in the morning, but Ahlwardts
was held in the afternoon. Immediately
upon the disposition of his case he was
arrested by Constable Wright on a war
rant issued by Justice of the Peace Sey-
incur upon the complaint of Michael Ar
ronsberg who charged him with afro
cious assault and battery with intent to

different air he had when he found him

Several of the better class of Hebrews
who were at the hearings did not APP

Arronsberg stirred up a hornets nest
by doing so. Public sentiment which was
neutral, but If anything in favor of the
Jews, turned at once IN favor OF Ahl-
Wardt. Everyone began to mutter that
it was an outrage. Not one Hebrew could

home in Brooklyn with a fractured cheek
bone. If Friedow should succumb to the
injuries he received last night every one
OF the three Hebrew prisoners, who are
now out on bail could be held for murder.
Some think that Recorder McDonough
did wrong in accepting bail for them
while Friedow is in danger of dying. Yet
charge preferred against them except in
the case CT Becker, and he is charged
with having assaulted Ahlwardt and not
Friedow.
Ahiwardt was also held in s1oo bail as
a witness against the others. Mr.. Van
Ojen of Hudson place went upon his
bond. Upon leaving Police Headquarters
Herr Ahlwardt went directly to Brook
lyn. An attempt was made to have him
again arrested. this time upon the same
charge upon which he had Arronsberg
arrested. but the Jews evidently came to
the conclusion that they had no ground
npon which they could get out a war
rant, and SO they did not bother their
arch enemy any more. Ahlwardt's hear
ing in the assault and battery case will
be held before Judge Seymour at a fu-
ture date to be agreed upon by counsel.
