The Case of Maroney.


NEW YORK June 1S.-The Mail and Ex-
press this morning says: "a detective
from Scotland Yard stood on Chambers
street, west of the county court house to-
day, for over two hours. He had his eye
on POI Broadway, which is the office of
David NJ. Newburg, counsel for J. j. Ma
roney, accused of completely in the murder
of DR.. Cronin. Mayor Rudolph Fitzpat-
rick, of l47 West Sixty-third street, who
was the adjutant general Of the Fenian
army that invaded Canada. is one of the
men willing to swear Maroney was in his
place the day Cronin was murdered.
Fitzpatrick has an English wife who is an
ardent supporter of Irish aspirations Fitz-
patrick and his wife are relied upon as two
who will help to establish an alibi for
MarOney. The attempt to prove the prls-
oners lnnocence.wlll not stop with the
evidence of Fitzpatrick and wife, and L.
j. Rowe, an exClan-na-Gael man.
zone of Msroney's callers yesterday at
the Tombs was Thomas j. Dennehy, of
the Wolfton club of Brooklyn. He holds
political office In Kings county, and is a
trusted man in the anti-Devoy Breslin
wing of the Clan-na-Gael. Maroney, Den
nehy and Gen. Millen, the latter a member
of the Press club, now dead, went across
the Atlantic on mission" not quite two
years ago. Maroney was known as Nellie
vile. Dennehy, however, has many Clan
na-GseI men in his camp, and he is expect
ed TO take part in the alibi business. The
executive committee of the Clan-ns Gael.
or United Brotherhood, of America, met
last night and decided that Maroney and
Mcdonald should be kept in New York If
possible by any form of law. All the
members did not meet together. Some
were reached by telegraph, and Patrick
Egan. who is on the ocean, was not, of
course, reached. The meeting is said to
have been held in Philadelphia and those
said TO have been present were Romayne,
Tierney, Bradley, Condor and Leonard.
These men are anxious about Maroney, be-
cause the British government wants him."
The petition upon which Judge An
drews last evening granted writ of habeas
corpus for the production in the supreme
court of Maroney and Mcdonald, the men
arrested here for completely in the Cronin
murder. were filed to-day in the supreme
court That in McDonaId's case was made
by Thomas J. Dennely. and presented by
John Dehanty. and that in Maroney's case
was made by Edward J. Rowe and pre-
sented by ID. NJ Newberger. The petit
tioners described themselves as near
friends. and alleged the men are not held
by legal commitment, and there is an en-
tire absence of Identification. The matter
will come up for argument to morrow.
