But what are the proofs that McIncrny
has been made away withP Exactly the
question that was asked when Cronin
disappeared and his friends could learn
nothing OF his whereabouts. Before
answering 1t will tell the reader little
more about McInerny He was born in
ireland about forty years ago. His
birthplace is Limerick, where his family
resides. After receiving a very fair edu.
cation at one OF the public schools he
learned upholstering business and went
to London. While working at his busl.
ness there he was charged with com.
pllclty in the Fenian movement and
was forced TO remove 10 Edinburg.
From Scotland he came to New York.
He was in the high school in Thirteenth
street, entered the College Of the City OF
New York and took medical diploma
there. Then he got an appointment
from the Board OF Education 10 lecture
In the night schools on anatomy and
physiology. The New York Catholic
ProtectoFy has a kind OF quarantine in
Broome street, between Broadway and
the Bowery, where children are kept for
a time before being admitted TO the in
stitute in Westchester. A physician Ia
appointed TO attend the Broome street
house, but no salary is paid. DR.. Nc.
Inerny received this appointment, and
flled the position for twelve or eighteen
months. Next he became an ''interne"
In the French hospital, when II was
situated ut Forty.second street, near
Seventh avenue. Neither was there any
salary attached to this position, but Il
was good practice for the young doctor.
WHEN LAST sRRN.
His term at the French Hospital ex.
pired on April i Of this year, and now
we come to answer the question about
the proofs Of his death. DR.. McInerny
registered at Trainors Hotel, at Sixth
avenue and Thirty.third street, on April
Q. He paid for his room the week follow
ing, and again the week after that. The
particular day he left the hotel the mana.
ger told me he could not tell. The
books showed, however, that his room
was occupied by another person on
April 10, so that MCInerny must have
gone away that morning or the day be-
fore. No one In the hotel could give
any information about him. He had
not left word for letters 10 be sent any.
where after him.
The inner circle had doomed four men
10 death-Dr. Cronin, Dr.. McInerney,
DR.. MCOahey, Of Philadelphia, and John
Dewey. Dr.. Cronin they succeeding In
numbering beyond a doubt, and there Is
q strong suspicion, amounting To almost
certainty, that McInerney Is also as
saSsinated. There Is evidence 10 bhow
that traps had been laid for hlCC Cahey In
Philadelphia Just like those that had at
first failed with Cronin, but some un.
ioreSeen circumstance always happened
10 cause the plots 10 fail. Dewey had
been openly threatened, and men have
watched his movements, not knowing
that their own movements were also
watched.
This conspiracy is one Of tho boldest
and worst the country has ever exper.
fenced.
