New YORK, March 19.-Police Inspector
Byrnes was seen at his Office this morning,
preparing to go out, when a reporter asked
him il he was going to drag the net Tor
more Aldermen to-day. He smiled at the
question and replied: "That is the matter
I would rather not talk about. / am In
hopes the evidence will be suffi cient to war
rant the arrest of some guilty ones, but
that is for the District Attorney to decide.
He ia going ahead cautiously to get evil
dence that will stand in court, and it looks
as if he would come pretty near getting
it," els il true that all the Aldermen
| of 81 are involved2" Nearly all. There
are two," the Inspector said calmly and
| with earnest emphasis, "of whom l can
speak of here. One is a Democrat, and
the other a Republican. OF them 1t can be
positively md absolutely stated at this
stage Of inquiry that they were not bribed.
AS to the rest you will know shortly
" Who we're bought, and who were notr
Or, perhaps, / might better say, OF whom
it can be proven that they were bought! "
LET it rest" Allusion was made to the
silverware scrape of Jaehnes in the role OF
a fence thai dragged Inspector Byrnes into
| unpleasant notoriety. LIVERY thing IN
its turn" said the Inspector calmly. BE
fore we get through with this we VIII come
pretty near showing up some things IN
connection with that matter that are not
as plain to publish as they might be. or
| the attack on me, / believe it was made by
parties who were cognizant OF what was
| doing with Jaehnes, to throw discredit on
| me or to turn off the wrath to come. 1t
| didn't work, and it won't now. When
am through with the more important work
on hand there will be time to show up
that little affair and its bearings
on me-" Speculation was rife at
the police headquarters as to the identity
of the lawyer employed, according to
Jaehnes, by his fellow Aldermen TO cover
up their tracks, by o~verhauling their pri-
vate books aud papers and liking them up
to bear the scrutinizing gaze OF the Sen.
ate Committee. Inspector Byrnes would
not tell who he was, but said significantly
that his turn wonld also come in its sea-
son, Alderman Jaehnes, with his coun-
sci, Richard Newcomb, walked down
Broadway at II o'clock to-day and went
into the Postofice building TO attend a
session of the Senate Broadway Railroad
Investigation Commission. Jaehnes looked
very meek, and seemed anxious to avoid
notice.
LATER-The arrest OF Jaehnes seemed
to greatly increase the interest in the inves-
tigation OF the granting of the franchise
of the Broadway roads. A murmuf spread
through the courtroom as Alderman
Jaehnes entered, accompanied by ex-Alder-
man Cleary. His counsel followed, and
Alderman O'Neill Delacy and ex-Sherif
Bowe secured seats within the inner rail
ing. Alderman Jaehnes was far from try
ing to avoid the gaze of spectators. He
stood up by the Judges bench in full view
of all, chatting cheerfully with his friends.
