FIGHT
ON THE STREET

Yesterday afternoon on the corner
of Fourth and Colorado, a difficulty
arose between two gentlemen of the
city, which resulted in their both
being arraigned in municipal court
this morning charged by each other
with assault and battery. C. c. In
man. new arrival in the city from
Goldfield. New, where he held for a
number of years the position of chief
of the fire and police departments,
and Lorenzo Hatch, well known
local man, were the principals in the
fistic encounter and later in the case
before Mayor Todd. this morning
lnman pleaded guilty to his count
but contended that the provocation
was sufficient to Justify his striking
the other and asked for leniency from
the court. He was assessed the mini
mum fine of IS and cost, amounting
to $3.50.
Hatch entered a plea of not guilty
In his case and testimony was intro
duced. Inman in defense claimed
that Hatch had made statements
detrimental to his character 1t was
quite evident that misunderstand-
ing had existed all around but the
court held that lnman was too hasty
with his blow and Hatch was found
not guilty.
Mr.. Hatch was the worst to suffer
from the conflict receiving several
severe bruises and cuts as well as a
badly swollen eye. Mr.. Inman car
ried his hand in bandage and his
arm was very lame.
Chief of Police Welsh stopped the
fight or It might have been much
more serious.
The fine was paid and as none of
the witnesses claimed their fees the
costs of the case were not heavy. The
dispute arose over the consummation
of mining deal and as the difficulty
was thrashed out this morning both
of the defendants left the courtroom
