DIFFICULTY IN INDICTING MGLORY.
POLICE CAPTAIN CLINCHY HAD TO BE FORCED
TO MAKE RAID.

POLICE CAPTAIN CLINCHY HAD TO BE FORCED
TO MAKE RAID.
The story which is current that Billy" McCilory
was indicted for keeping disorderly house at Four
teenthst. and Irving Place in spite Of Police Captain
Cinchy's repeated delays In getting evidence In the
case Is in consonance with the facts. Captain
Clnchy certainly did not make the first raid on the
place until ten days after the Grand Jury began It's
Investigation. The testimony OF the policemen at the
trial showed that they had for a long time been In
possession of facts which warranted the Indictment OF
MoGlory. The officers however. were evidently not
being consumed by anxiety to get the nquOrseller
into trouble.
The Graud Jury discussed The subject OF indcting
McGlory early last month There was no legal EVIL
dence hand so the District Attorney asked TO
The request was apparently unheeded
and a repetition Of H. Then OF t,e jurors
volunteered to do little detective work. They had
no difficulty In learning that McGlory sold liquor al
though he had no license. An indictment then
found.
The amateur detectives naturally did not care to
testify in public about their visit to the Hotel Irving
so Captain Clnchy instructed to get evidence
Hc demurred. saying that ne could not do 1t. lie
sisted until threatened with Indictment himself and
then he finally made his raid. After that the ndict-
mcnt presented In court and McGloy was tried
and found guilty DistrictAttomey NlcOll wns In
Albany yesterday and none OF his assistants would
speak about the subject.
Max Mansfield. Of the lesecs OF the Amberg
Theatre. called ut tie Office OF the Excise Board
terday with letter OF Introduction from william Stein
way, the piano manufacturer, and made an appica
ton for q license 10 conduct "A hotel In the place
formerly kept by McGlOry at Irving Place and Four
