BULL Run.
EDITOR HoLoMUA:

Although I have always had a
very pronounced antipathy to
anything savoring of newspaper
notoriety, yet occasion will arise,
Mr.. Editor, when the force of
circumstances leave a man no op-
ton butte seek to be delivered from
a wrong by having recourse to
the powerful agency of the public
press. And it is precisely for
this reason that l crave your In
diligence for encroaching upon
your columns anent a matter,
which. though possibly OF minor
interest to some of your readers,
is nevertheless of last import to
your correspondent, involving as
it does, an honest mans richest
legacy, i. g., a fair name and an
unsullied reputation.
Oh Jan. 9 of this year l was
made the subject of the following
paragraph in the Daily Bull
letin:"
Alexander D. McEvoy, late
Deputy Sheriff OF Fresno County.
CAL. is on visit to Honolulu.
As a patrolman in San Francisco
in 1899, he exposed Chinese
gambling ring in which others
were implicated. His reward
was to be dismissed the service,
as the Examiner stated in the
account of the death of the head
Chinese gambler in 1892. Mr..
McEvoy had been appointed to
the force through the influence
of General 0. o. Howard. United

The would be-funny man of the

iniquity that I was instrumental
in exposing in others. forbear
to express my opinion OF men
who value their neighbor's good
name so lightly as to make such
baseless and damaging attacks
behind his back, without due in
vestigation. lest the bitterness of
my feelings betray me into ex-
ceeding the bounds of discretion.
But | will not brook such cow
ardly tactics from anyone without
entering vigorous protest, and
daring them to come out IN the
light of day and repeat their sland-
erous assertions in black and
white. And in refutation of
these dastardly aspersions per-
nit me to subjoin the following
extracts from San Francisco
papers:
Ito Alexander McEvoy, whom
Gano had removed from the
squad on the ground that he was
a crank who was destroying the
efficiency of the men, belongs the
credit OF being the primary cause
of the investigation which result
ed in the landing of Gano, Crys-
tai, Robinson and Mccarthy in
prison McEvoy is young
man of excellen. character, who
has made good record during
the short time he has been on
the police force. He is bright
and intelligent, and his superiors
speak of him with terms of
praise. He was formerly in the
navy. McEvoy deserves promo
ton for the detective skill he
displayed in working up the case
against Gauo. "--Chronicle, Feb.
II, 1889.
To prevent misunderstanding
the Report was in error In
stating on Mar. 30th that Alex
ander D. McEvoy when apolice-
man, was concerned in the Gano
bribery case. The statement
full and an interrupted sway.
McEvoy was on the watch that
night. but he stated afterwards
that he suspected Gano, and for
once played the part of detective.
He said he saw Gano receive
the money and heard the promise
given that no harm would come to
the gamblers. Gano was dismiss
ed from the force etc. A"
In conclusion Mr.. Editor, /
beg leave to add that | did not
le,ve the force until Mar. 1st
1891, fully two years after the
damaging disclosures were made,
my services being dispensed with
upon the ground of physical dis
ability consequent upon the IN
iuries which l had received in
the act of stopping a runaway
horse. Farther, that have In
nv possession a certificate sigaed
by all the members of the Board OF
San Francisco Police Comission-
ers as we'll as BY Chief Crowley
which fully snbstantiates the fact
of my honorable discharge. and
that 1 challenge each and all OF
nv calumniators to disprove a
single iota OF this my truthful
version of the affair with my
sincere thanks for your courtesy
in allowing space for my lengthy
| communication. l subscribe my
self. Yours etc.
