Arrests for robbery commit: | { ted or attempted rose from 145 to 172. Arrests for homicide increased | i from 149 to 194. Arrests for felonious assault, actual or attempted, rose from 619 to 775. Arrests for assault and battery fell off by 73. Arrests| for grand larceny, actual or attempted, increased from 1,173 to 1,265.) The number of suspicious persons detained increased by 741. Ar-} rests for disorderly conduct mounted from 7,240 to 7,632. There were} #481 more arrests for intoxication. i Arrests for vagrancy declined by 410.) , Arrests for violation of the corporation ordinance, the obstruction of s ¢ walks with building material, &., increased by 443. There were 25 i “more arrests for violation of the speed law by automobiles. Health-law arrests fell off by nearly 500.
