0RAvE CMARoEg AGAINST Two MErRo
EoGzrAsp. -Oae night recently young
I maa Of very re6ned appearance visited q
beerhduAs ia the Second District, where he
1rnak freely, 20 that his tongue was al
times Isose and then mixed. Special officers
u Dipert and Canonge "overhauled" him,
they psetsndips to think they noticed signs
~ thieks shout the stranger. They finally
took him out Of the house, and he asserts
that = they we're passing down the stairs
cno Of the two strack him q heavy blow on
his neck, but this assertion has not yet been
& conhrmed. The three then started out
toward the Parish Prison, stopping on the
road several times. An officer, in citizens
drees, followed .. short distance, and saw
tho two officers looking over some papers.
He I'D followed to zee If the man was to be
taken 70 stationhouse.
e Tho young man, whose name is F.
O'Shaaghnessy, advertising agent from
another city, subsequently, made his COM
plAint to superintendent Badger, putting
the case pretty strong. He also made "a
a6Rdavit before Recorder Staea, accusing
Dipcrt and Canonge with highway robbery,
- which they were arrested, and gave
bonds. They were also sent before the
Board Of Police Commissioners, and the
sase was taken up yesterday. The prose-
cutor then related the circumstances, but
wAs not very explicit. His story is, that
when first accosted he was not aware that
tho two were officers, and whom one of them
displayed .tstar," he still felt an inclina-
4. - t. doubt, bat lsft the house with them,
considering himself prisoner. He offered
70 give mp everything he had rather than
g to jail, and Cansnge took his papers and
pooketbook, promising to return them next
daB. .Whea in tho street he was asked to
sstalk business" and tell them what he "was
on,r bht no demand was made for money.
Censiderable slang was INDUCED in,
w1ichAoans either nothing Or something,
jupt g the occasion requires. He was
walked from the corner of Cont and
Chartres streets ont to near the Parish
Prison, which building was pointed out to
him - one that might make residence for
sixty days He was assured that his prop
efty would be returned in the morning at
his room in the veranda Hotel, and the
promise was kept. All the time the officers
were with him he says he felt greatly
frightened, fearing that they intended i'm
prisoning him. Onleaving them he went 20
His room.
This Il about the pith of his story, a.
nassated to the Police Commissioners, but
th11e 0facials could not come to determi-
nation in the case until two important wit
nessos shall be found. The prosecutor does
mot intend to remain in the city. therefore
it i supposed the affidavit in the Second
District viii be dropped.
Tho officers assert that they were simply
performing what they thought was their
duty, - their suspicious had been aroused
BY hearing the O'Shaughnessy use slang
terms.
