INNOCENTS IN JAIL
TWO REAL CRIMINALS CONFESS
TO THE BURGLARY.


New York. June Il.-William Dunn
and John Williams were indicted yes
terday by the grand jury for burglary
and grand larceny for stealing $50
worth of jewelry on July a5. 1894. This
indictment. found on the prisoners
own confession. will release from the
penitentiary Patrick Shannon and John
Henry. who have been confined for the
offense since Aug. II last and 1t also
developed the fact that In such cases
no one official is under any obligation
TO inform the innocent prisoners that
the real offenders have been found
Said Assistant District Attorney Me
Manus yesterday: Il do not know of
any one whose duty II Is TO convey the
news. As matter of fact. in the pres
ent instance. | will do II myself to-
night. The men should then apply for
pardon. and the application will be in
dorsed by the district attorneys Of
flee"
The real criminals were arrested
about two weeks ago by Detective
Charlton. who heard that Williams had
said that there were two men doing
time for crime Of which they were
innocent. Williams was arrested hni
confessed. and subsequently Dunn was
arrested and followed Williams exam
pie.
The trial OF Shannon and Henry was
before Judge Fitzgerald, In general scs-
sions. and at that time Mr.. Ackerson
said that the burglary occurred in the
light of early morning; that there were
three men. and he positively identified
Shannon and Henry as two of them.
The men claimed that they were in
Philadelphia at the tins. but there
were no witnesses to prove the alibi
and the prosecution produced one wit
ness who swore he saw the men in New
York at the time Of the burglary.
Mr.. Ackerson will try 10 secure the
release of the men. who have been
wrongfully detained for almost the full
term. one year. 1t is possible for the
prisoners To sue the state for damages
under the new law.
