Charges against him and his three
former special duty men-Jeremiah
Levy John Hoch and Bernard Meehan-
were formulated this forenoon to Presi-
dent Martin and approved. The time
fixed for the trial is Thursday next at

All four OF the accused policemen
will be arraigned together, but the case
of Capt. Doherty will take precedence
and will be first prosecuted.
There are four distinct charges against
each of the quartet. the first OF which
is termed by President Martin as legal
charges" for having violated not only
the rules of the Department but the
criminal laws in having extorted money
from a citizen.

The evidence against Capt. Doherty is
the testimony of Mrs. Augusta Thurow,
as adduced by the Lexow Investigators.
She accused him of accepting money
extorted by the three special duty men
named while in command of the Four
teenth Precinct.
The specific acts OF blackmail Of which
Capt. Doherty are directly accused, are
alleged to have occurred on Jan. 6. Feb.
and March 6. on all three of which oc-
casions he Is said to have accepted SIS
from Mrs. Thurow with the understand
that she was not to be molested in the

The money, II is understood, was paid
directly to Capt. Doherty, the considera-
ton being immunity from arrest or
annoyance from the police.

cinct. Hoch and Meehan were patrol
men under him. but were detailed for
special duty.

wins Appointment To-Merrow.
The latest rumor about Police Com
missioner McClave's resignation Is that
It is in the hands OF Mayor Gilroy. The
reason why the Mayor is holding It back,
it is said. Ia that he will announce the
retirement Of McClave and the appoint
ment of his successor at the same time.
Mayor Gilroy would not confirm the
report. He said he had not heard from
MIR. McClave and did not know of his
resignation.
Strength was added to the report by
the fact that Gen. Michael Kerwin.
Boss Platt's candidate for McClave's
place. spent long time in conference
with Mayor Gilroy this morning.
An impression prevails among the
City Hall politicians that the resigna-
ton and Gen. Kerwin's appointment
will be made public tomorrow.

HAVE A GOOD CLUE
To the Gang Who Maltreated
General Tarsney.
ABUSE OF THE COLORADO OFFICIAL.

His Arrival at Denver and the Story of the
self-His Life Threatened and Only
Saved. Apparently, by His Own Elo-
Quence-A Painful Fourteen-0Iile Walk
-Succor at a Farm Hoose.
DENVER, June "a telegram from
Colorado Springs says that the police has
good clues as to the perpetrators of the
outrage on General Tarsney. The evidence
is not sufficient to warrant their arrest,
but several men are under close watch.
This development of outlawry-the climax
so far in this state-has reused all classes
to high state of indignation. That the
adjutant general of the state, while a
guest at public hotel, the Alamo, Mt
Colorado Springs, could have been seized
by seven men, taken five miles out of
town and tarred and feathered, is a fact
that has set people to wondering whether
whatever it means.
Story Of the kidnapping.
Briefly the story of the kidnapping is this.
About midnight Friday Adjutant General
Tarsney was called to the telephone at the
Alamo hotel at Colorado Springs, and
when he came from his room he was
stunned 10y blow with a pistol carried to
a hack, the driver of which was under
cover of a revolver, and driven at n gallop
ont of town. The only two other persons
awake in the hotel-the clerk and porter
were also kept quiet by pistols. Fifteen
minutes later the police were on the trail,
but it was bad trail and the night was
dark, and they never overlook the kid
napers, who went through their perform
ance unmolested and unidentified so far
as is known.
Tho General Reaches Denver.
The victim of the outrage did not reach
Denver until ; p. III. Saturday. 4 re-
porter for the Associated Press called on
him and obtained his story. After his ar.
rival here physicians attended him and
succeeded in removing every particle of
the coal tar, and from his neck down
there remains no trace of his experiences
beyond an occasional abrasion of the skin.
His face, however, is inilamed and bis
tered because of the kindly intended SER
vices of woman who removed the tar
from the face, neck ami hair by the use of
coal oil. General Tarsney told his story
to the reporter ut first with difficulty
owing to his emotion, but he soon over
came that and spoke graphically and with
spirit.
