aid Arrested in New York.
CHIcAGo June 12.-In the Cronin inquest
yesterday j. ID. Haggerty swore that Alex
ander Sullivan wanted Cronin "extermin-
atedn on the ground that be was a traitor to
the cause. Major sampson, man OF un-
savory reputation, told a startling story q
few days ago about Daniel Coughlin, the ar
rested detective, wanting to hire him to "do
up Croniu, and Sampson's story was cor
rohorated by State Senator Garrity's brother.
Chief Of Police Hubbard related the con-
fession Of Frank Woodruff, alias Black, which
implicated p. O'Sullivan and the two un-
known murderers Some Of the murdered
mans papers were read, but apart from show
ing the hatred which Alexander Sullivan
bore towards the doctor, the documents were
mainly a repetition OF Luke Dillon's testi-
mony.
J. D. Haggerty also testified that Alex
ander Sullivan told him that Cronin was
dangerous TO the Irish cause and should be
removed from our ranks, one way or another.
The Verdict Of the Jury.
II was within a few minutes OF 10 o'clock
when the foreman intimated that the jury
had agreed upon a verdict. Only Coroner
Hertz and small knot OF spectators were in
the ROOM The verdict was read in slow and
impress We tones:
I'VE, the Undersigned, jury appointed to
make inquiry, according TO law, as to how
the body viewed came 20 his death, state as
our verdict, from the evidence;
a. That the body is that Of Patrick II.
Cronin, know as Dr. Cronin.
''2. That his death was not from natural
causes, hut from violent means.
"3. That tho said Patrick H. Cronin was
decoyed from his home ON North Clark street
ON the evening OF May 4, 1889, by some per-
son or persons 10 the cottage known as the
Carlson cottage situated at No. ,S72 North
Ashland avente.
-. That at said cottage the said Cronin
was murdered by being beaten on his head
with some biurt instrument In the hands OF
some person or persons TO us unknown.
'5. That the body, after said murder was
committed, was placed In trunk and carried
10 Edgewater cn a wagon by several persons,
and by them placed in catch basin at the
corner Of Evanston avenue and Fifty-ninth
street, Lake visw, where 1t was discovered
May %.
''6 That tho evidence shows conclusively
70 our minds that a pot or conspiracy was
formed by anumber Of persons Tor the purpose
Of numbering the said Cronin and concealing
his body; said plot or conspiracy was de-
hberately contrived aud cruelty executed.
- We have carefully Inquired into the
| relations sustained by said Cronin 10 other
persons while aive, 70 ascertain il he had
any cause of enmity with any person sufIi-
cient 70 cause his murder
IS IL u our judgment that no other per-
son or persons except some Of those who are
or had been IN ,mbers Of certain secret So
ciety, known as United Brotherhood or
'ClaI-na- Gail had any cause to be the insti-
gators or executors Of such plot or conspiracy
20 murder said Cronin.
'Many Of the witnesses tesifying in the
case have done SO with much evident unwill-
ingness and, as we believe, with mental
reservation We find from the evidence
that numuer Of persons were parties 70 this
plot ana conspiracy 10 murder the said Gro
min, and that Daniel Coug him, Patrick o.
Sullivan, Alexander Sullivan aud one Wood
run alias Black, were either principals, ac-
cessories or had guilty knowledge Of said
plot and conspiracy to murder said Cronin
and conceal his body, and they should be
held 10 answer to the grand jury.
1--WE also believe that other persons were
engaged in this pot or had guilty knowledge
of It, and should be apprehended and held to
the grand jury.
1--WE further state that this plot or conspir-
acy in its conception and execution is one of
the most foul and brutal that has ever come
10 our knowledge, and recommend that the
proper authorities offer large reward for
the discovery and conviction of all those en-
gagged in it in any way.
I'VE further state that in our judgment all
secret societies whose objects are such as the
evidence shows that OF the Clan-na-Gael or
the United Brotherhood to be are not in har-
mony with and are injurious 10 American
institutions.
eve hope that future vigor and vigilance
by the police force viii more than compen-
safe Ior past neglect by part Of the force in
this case.n

the jury had retired before he had left his
law office under the shadows Of the county
building, and he knew full well that his ar
rest was inevitable before morning. he was
in bed and sound asleep when the deputies

awaiting them and surrounded by his
friends Instead Of this his law clerk, Henry
