William Quinn, went into Bernard
Cohen's house, 40 Quade street yesterday
afternoon. IL was raining quite hard at
the time, and QuiDn's clothes were not of
the best, so he thought a rubber overcoat
would no doubt protect him from the
rain. He saw one hanging on a. nail in the
hallway and put it on. When he appeared
again outside the door he looked like an
aristocrat. His entrance and exit were
seen, however, by Officer Flynn who
placed him under arrest. Quinn struggled
little, but the presence OF the officers
club served to suDdue the prisoner. Five
dollars and costs this morning.
