for sonlo time III tho Rtraiu indicated by tho last
fow questions, but no further testimony Of i'm
portance was brought out, nor was tile statement
Of tue witnoss in any way Hhakcn by the queries
Of tho jury.
The other WitnosHes examined wcre NIisB
A1ooro's male friend aud Nolan. Thoir testimony
revealed nothing in regard to Capt. Hickey, be-
cause they know, only by hoarsay what lie had
done. Nolan rotated tho part he had taken in
tie robbery. and gavo tho details Of his agrec-
monts with Geary aud Duncan.
Aftcr ratler heated discussion, two Of tho
}urymon desiring to indict Hickey for theft, iu-
as dlclmonts wore found againat deary, Duncan.

llckeY'B conduct.
The fact thai tho case WAS to come before tho
Grand Jury was known oyen on Tueaday to tho
Captain and tho other Interested parties, aud
consequently only one of the persons Inns thus
far boon apprehondod. Duncan WAS picked IN
on tho West Side, but Tho others could no. bo
found. It WAS stated last evening that Gcary

The Board Of Police will probably consider tho
resolution Of the Grand Jury Immediately, and
rs soon as tho chargea against Hickey are
prepared, ho will be accorded m opportunity to
ell lis side OF tho story, aud show why he took
tho $3.50.
Before closing this report, 1t might bo woll to
inquire, Why is A1r. Ellsworth always summoned
