Picture on Button.

Ninth street, this city. took offense
when he heard thai William Corners,

him in a wordy war. in which Napeer,

A warrant was sworn oil for Ma

Joseph Delfattore, of 50 River street,
who has the misfortune to have a

Several times members of the reception
committee told him he was not well
come, but he remained until 2 O'clock
this morning, when Special Policeman
Fred H~oldsworth ordered him to leave.
He refused and Holdsworth arrested
him.
Holdsworth, perhaps, lacked discre-
ton in leading his prisoner from the
ballroom. for he preceded him a few
feet down the first flight of stairs into
the main lobby. and while he be-
low his prisoner on the steps Delfattore
kicked him twice in the face.
The international Union of Pump
workers jumped On Delfattore, APP
plauded by the Ladies' Auxiliary, and

In court today Holdsworth introduced
the footprints on his face as evidence
