scANT INTELLIGENCE IN THIS CITY.

COMMENTS on FATHER DCCEl ACIION-NHAl
HIS SUPERIOR SAYS.
No additional information could be gained from
the Emo family Yesterday about the arrest of John
c. Emo. Amos X. Emo was prostratcd by worri-
ment and anxiety that he was in the doctors hands
His son. Amos F., was absent from the city. At No
46 Park-ave it was said that Charles Wood was at
home but could not been seen.
TOUCHING ENO'S EXTRADITGON
Robert Pinkerton was not at his office yesterday
but Mr. Banks, the superintendent said:
We have had no to-day about John G. Emo OF any
idea "a TO whether or not he can be brought back AS
understand IT, second warrant has been issued charging
laws of this state any public officer who makes
any false entry, or who alters any hg-
s re guilty of forgery in the third degree This as under
stand ii, is precisely what Mr. Emo did but have no
charge on which the ertradton Of wnslow was asked
for snI refused on the grounds that under me Engs Ia
British Government have since retired from tneir Po-
sitOn Their chief for refusing cxtradOn IN that
case was that Government refused to agree
not TO prosecute the offender on any other charge no
covered by cXtradtiOn. This pushed TO EXTREMIST
as Il probably will be, ia likely to be an extremely inc
tercsng on many accounts. AS TO the dctas O met
reported may add that we convinced that the
Catholic priest with Emo Father Ducey, of this city.
ST. LEo's ABSENT PRIEST.
Father Ducey did not ofliciate at any of the five
masses at st. Lco's Church, in East Twenty-ninth-
ST., yesterday morning, nor was he present at ves-
pers. At high mass Father Tole oficiated assisted
by Father McCuskey. The latter read series OF
notices from the altar but reference was made to
Father;Ducey. The home Of the priests belongingto
ST. Leos is at No. 16 East Twenty yninth-st., nearly
opposite the Little Church Around the Corner"
In answer to an enquiry from TRIBUNE reporter,
Father Toe said that Father Ducey was absent.
He was grieved that some OF the city papers had
made such misstatement as to declare that the
fugitive Emo had been hidden in that house TINS
he declared, was absolutely devoid of fiounda-
ton lie said that Father Duceys acc
tIon far from being the result OF
interested motives. in reality caused by the ton
derness of humane heart grateful for past kind
ness. Nor was it true that Father Ducey IN gong
to Montreal had no other motive than TO AID and
comfort Mr. Emo.
Vicar-General Quinn, when asked whether Father
Ducey's actions would bring him within the Judg
ment of his ecclesiastical superors,sa whether IL
OF nature to call for ecclesiastical censure re-
piled:
really have official notice Of any action committed
by Father Ducey What know know merely rom rom 'he
chooses long as he does not neglect the duties commtted
20 & s dna GSe 70 am certain an ts m ,s Done in The matter
and OF his motives for acting as ne nae Certaihy ne VIII
and n tbev r satIsaod fat re motives were good he
will be morally vndcated in their eyes
REGRET OVER FATHER DUCEY's CONDUCT
A member Of Father Ducey's congregation said
last night:

Ducey with him and had probably aided III ms escape
am inclined TO think there must be msrepie7,h
somewhere. Father Duccy Ia not only an eaIhe Po59s
but thorough man OF the world. HIS circle oi @
