ANTI-SALOON LEAGUE CAUSES
TROUBLE FOR TWO OF THEM.
Philip j. Honbauer Denied a License
and Thomas O'Roark Arrested
for Illegal Selling.

Philip J. Hoffbauer, saloon keeper at 1431
Hill avenue, was yesterday denied license
by the County Commissioners because the
description of his premises in his applica-
ton did not tally with the description in
his notice for licence. The notice set out
that he wished to sell liquor in oneistory
frame building, while his application de-
scribed the premises as being a two-story
building. He asked leave to amend the
petition, but the commissioners refused
to allow il.
The Anti-saloon League has been making
a special fight in the First ward, and a
remonstrance was filed against Hoffbauer
by Horace ]. Yount, William S. Tobias,
Frank r. Hale and L. B. Lacey. known as
a remonstrance for cause, setting out that
Hofbauer sells liquor to minors. Repre-
sentatives OF the league were present with
their attorney, and it was by their oues-
tioning that the error in the application
was discovered
Thomas O'Roark a saloon keeper at 500
West Washington street, was arrested yes
terday on an affidavit sworn to by Albert
Alcon, of the Empire Hotel. and E. E. Post.
$50 North Meridian street, charging the
saloon keeper with selling liquor on Sun
DAY. Aeon tolu deputy PROSECUTOR Col
Inns that the arrest of O'Roark was the
beginning of another crusade against law
breaking saloon keepers instigated by Eli
+. Ritter. The men allege that they
bought beer in ORoark's place on Sun
day.
c. ]. Orbison. attorney for the Anti-sa-
loon League, said IL ii was the beginning
of a crusade against the saloon keepers
by the league he did not know II. He said
he had no information about the O'Roark
case, and that the efforts of the league
are exerted in preventing licenses being
granted.

Weber and Fred Gregg, charged with as
sault and battery on John Kirkpatrick, of
Flackville, was held yesterday afternoon
in Police Court. The three boys are resi-
dents in Haughville. One night last week
Kirkpatrick and his brother drove into
Haughville. They called on two of Haugh-
vilIe's fair young women and the four went
to q church social on Calvert street. Muir
ply and his crowd were not invited to the
social, but were the outside, and, 1t is
said, were making remarks about those
who attended. When Kirkpatrick and the
others came up Murphy is alleged to have
said: You rubber-colored sport, you need
not try to spread your Flackville salve in
this town." This angered Kirkpatrick and
his brother. who began to show their re-
sentiment by striking Murphy and Weber
A general fight ensued, in which the three
Haughville boys were arrested for assault
and battery. The alleged remarks were
testified to yesterday afternoon by Kirk
patrick. Judge Stubs after hearing the
testimony decided to take the case under
advisement.
