FIVE HADDADs ARRESTED.
Charged With Breach of the Peace Good Richard Shamed by Evil Deeds of Bad Namesake.

Sunday afternoon at l o'clock Chief E. II. Richmond and Officer Louis Paulhus were called to the vicinity of Chapman street to quell 3 disturbance among some Syrians residing on that thoroughfare.
 The police found it necessary to arrest five: Salem. Shrigri, Solomon, Richard and Salem Haddad The five men were hustled to headquarters and locked up on the charge of breach of the peace. A little later friends Of the Haddads, more Haddads, and oth- CTS, interested themselves in their Countrymen's welfare and got in com munication with Judge William A. Ar mold. who went to headquarters and took bonds for the quintette to appear in court this (Monday) morning.
 It was suggested that the five be numbered instead of named and this would seem to be a good method of procedure, as there are at least three or four Salems in the Haddad colony, several Solomons and no less than three Richards. One Richard wished 10 make 1t plain to the public that it was not he that was arrested for fight ing He said There are three of us Richards and as l am a member of the l. W. W. l want. it distinctly understood that 1 was not fighting. It is enough to belong to the l. w. W's without being accused of fighting on Sunday also"
