1t Looks Mysterious to Dillon.

DETROIT, Mich, July 2, 1Ss9.-Luke
Dillon was seen by a reporter just as he
was leaving for Philadelphia late last
night. Referring to the San Francisco
Chronicles story regarding the man
Walsh, Mr.. Dillon said:-
!" This Walsh has no connection with
the case whatever. He does not belong
to the Glan-na-Gael and has not for four
years. He is not a personal friend of
mine. never saw him but few times,
and that was in Philadelphia two or more
years ago"
"He is not Simonds, am positive
When asked regarding the alleged dis
appearance of McInerny from New York,
Mr.. Dillon remarked, II hardly know
what to think about that story, and yet it
seems that he has gone from New York
rather mysteriously.
81 wrote him an important letter two
months ago and never received reply. l
understood at that time or lttle before,
that he expected to go to Omaha. 1 can
not understand why anyone would wish
to compass his sudden taking off.
"He was mild hammered and peaceable
gentleman, not of an investigating turn
of mind, and not at all likely to be con-
cerned in looking up the financial affairs
of the Clan-na-gael as was DR.. Cronin."

Breckinton, who has Cooney's des-
cription, says that the dead man
taliies exactly, from the pockmarked

found on the body which would in any
way establish the mans identity. An
officer from Chicago will arrive this morn

WERE THEY "REMOVED?"
The Chicago Police Say That McInerny
was Not Killed in That City.

CHICAGO, July 2, 1Ss9.-The Chicago po-
lice are not encouraged over the prospect
that they will have to take in hand
another great removal" mystery.
Chief Hubbard said last night
"Of course we are bound to look into
the McInerny story, but so far we have
nothing that would lead us to believe that
the man was killed here. We have care
fully examined the Nixon street cottage
and there is not a single thing to show
that any murder was ever committed
there.
"That is as far as we have gone in the
case SO far, but l guess we can find the
Murphys if we want them"
States Attorney Longnecker and Chief
Hubbard held consultation last evening
and talked about the McInerny story.
The thing is generally looked upon as a
''fake" in police circles, at least that part
of the story which brings in Chicago as
the place of DR.. McInerny's supposed
murder.
