DIR. DOYLE GONE


PAsGoR, Jan. l3-The Commercial
s.ys. DR., Daniel P. Doyle, who has beer
in the county jail siuce Friday hight, hav
ing been bound over from the police
cour; in the sum Of s400 on two charges
one Of breaking and entering the office
Of DIR. Alfred Walton and stealing surgi-
cal Instruments, and the other of robblDs
!te mHoey drawer in the drug store OF J
N. Tsney & Co OF ten dollars, has been
'siessed on bail which was from Mr..
Patrick II. ODonohue. DE-. Doyle 4
tsther s,yived in this city Saturday even
il z and arranged ~ish Mr.. O'Dorohue to
furnish bsil. He returned to his home 10
south Boston on the train Sucdsy morning.
About the middle Of the forenooa today,
Officer Dougberty went up to the county
jail sGd took DR.. Doyle into his protecting
care and again landed him in the police
station. There the nece s.ary ptelimlnaries
we're arranged ard bail furnished. Dr..
Doyle was then accompanied by q friend to
Cobb's stable across the street, where they
gook team and started for Hermon or
Carmel, where the doctor was given an op-
p0rtunlty to catch the noon train for Boston.
There was al evident suspicion on the
part Of his friends that unless these pre-
csuiioGary measures were taken some
minor matters might arise to detain him.
A report was in circulation that Detective
Allen wanted him on another case, but that
VAS surely Incorrect, for the detective knew
when he left jail and had ample time to
interview him but did not.
DR.. Doyl les acquaintancss do not expect
to see him IN Bangor again. The bonds
are so light tass it will be a profitable in
Y. stment for him to stay away. This will.
Of course, Dss profitable investment for
the county. but DR.. Doyle's creditors are
not very happy at the outlook and would
be harry to have him return here ard set
