AFTER DUUEEV'S SCALP.

Formal Complaint Lodged with the
Police Commission By Young nIcKeogh's
Uncle.
James McKsogh is after House
Warden Durney's scalp, and It will not
be his fault II the Police Commission
does not give it to him
he has had drawn and will present to
the commission to day formal petition
setting forth that on Saturday
his nephew, William McKeogh,
was arrested by Detective Harvey
Vandegrtt on a charge of tresspassing
upon the ball grounds at Front and
Union streets. When the boy was
taken to the police station. the petitioner
states, and before he was locked
up, he (James MeKeogt) offered to so
his bali, or be responsible In
any manner for bis nephew's appearance,
or even deposit sufficient money to cover
the fnes and costs which might be
Inflicted. In order that the juvenile
prisoner might 20 without being i'm
prisoned. This, he alleges. Samuel
Durney refused to allow, and locked the
boy behind the bars
Mr. McKeogh states that his grievance
is that neither the house sergeant nor
-
prisoner up for a minor offense when bail
is present aud ready He has only the
right to detain, and, if he cannot
take the bail himself hold the
prisoner until one In authority
is summoned BE also complains
that Durney acted in a very un gentle
manly manner, aud that his con-
duct was not becoming an
officer He even went so far ss to
threaten to arrest the complainant and
lock him up II no did not stop pleading
for his nephew he closes by asking
that Durnev be punished
When a prominent lawyer was asked
regarding the house ssrgeant's action
he said
IF McKsogh's statement is true, all
good citizens are interested in the
matter because It is palpably
wrong. to take, for instance. g
boy whose offense is looking trough OIL
over q fence surrounding a baseball
ground, and locking him up when bail Ia
