Has Cnuf&e ABhhhbt Anhaust
 On Newspaper Reporter.
 At the close of the session, of the Council, an affray occurred which re- suited in the arrest of Alderman James J. Sullivan. on the charge of disorder ly conduct in committing an assault upon R. R. Retan, reporter on The Daily state.
 It seems that an article was pub lished in The State in which the name of Alderman Sullivan was used in a manner he did not like, and at the close of the Council session he ap- preached Retan, who had been report ing the proceedings for his paper, and accused him of writing the article. He first applied epithets to Retan. and later struck him, when he was placed under arrest by Captain of Police J. Miles Smith.
 He was let out on bond immediately after his arrest. It was stated later in the evening at the office of The Daily State. that the case against him would be vigorously prosecuted. The case will probably be called in Re- corder Baber's court this afternoon.
