THE DETECTIVES AND POLICY.
Alleged Arrest OF Men without Warrants
by tho Police,


by tho Police.
Several arrests were made by the police on
Wednesday, among them thai Of G. G. Bev-
eridge. Mr.. Beveridgo says that he was ar
rested on Fifteenth street, near Pennsyl-
vania avenue, by officer Wheeler. The officer
told him, when making tho arrest, that be
had no warrant and did not know what was
the ofTense for which he was making the ar
rest, but was obeying the orders Of his supe-
riors. Mr.. Beveridge objected to the arrest
upon such vague terms, but on tho officer
telling him that ho would take
him ,, in pGSHIcoaOly or or dSS d5CFSsbly ,,I,e he
station house where the officer delivered him,
but assigned no charge for his arrest, made
none, none was entered upon the book and
he was kept there three hours. All tho salts
faction or explanation he could get was that
Detectives Block and Ratf had ordered the
arrest. Meanwhile Mr.. Bcveridgo's attorney,
Mr.. Daniel Cahill, went to Maj. Dye to give
bail, and tho chief of police said ho
did not know on what charges Mr..
Beveridge WAS arrested. Thore being no
charge, no warrant, no semblance of a legal
arrest, there were no data upon which recog-
nizance could bo made out and. finally, Mr..
Cahill told Maj. Dyo to put down any charge,
suggesting, as a means Of getting his client
Oub on Dali, I0hJ nc ne CHuIBcu WIN DhCkluB
policy" This was done, aud Mr.. Bcveridge
was released.
The above is Mr.. Bevoridge's statement of
his case, in which he is substantistcd by
number of witnesses. The matter was widely
discussed yesterday and last night
After investigating Mr.. Beveridge's ver-
sion Of the affair a REPUBLICAN reporter
interviewed the police authorities on the
matter.
Lieut.. Austin said that Mr. Beverdge was
told what the charge was when he was ar
rested, and il was entered ON tho book at
the station--the charge of keeping n policy
shop. The rumor that no charge was pre-
ferred originated from threat made to the
officer by Mr.. Beveridge saying that the
former had no authority TO arrest him with
out warrant, and that he would shoot the
officer if he had n pistol.
Maj. Dye, when asked about the matter
yesterday, said he gave no directions about
taking out warrants. The officers concerned
were the judges as to whether they would
take out warrants.
In the police court Yesterday Mr.. Beveridge
was charged with backing policy" and the
case continued until next Thursday. Joseph
Torrens for backing policy" and William
Smith, Thomas Patton, and George johnson,
for writing, were also arrested under similar
circumstances, and their cases continued till
Thursday.
