TNFORNER GETS INTO JAIL.
MAN WHO COMPLAINED OF PooLRooM
BACKED BY HONEST JOHN KELLY
HAS A RELATED JUDGMENT
SPRUNG ON HIM

AS result he thinks, of his part in the
raid on the pooroom of Samuel j. Oheefe
at No. % West Thirty -fourth-st., in which
Thomas r. Reynolds, Honest John" Kelly S
assignee had desk room and when REL
" is supposed to be a hacker on september r.
Thomas E. Heyman is now in the LUDLOW
Street Jail Hayman is a hay merchant with
his place of business at Thirty -third-st. ana
Eleventh-ave. He lost money in O'Keefe's pool
loom and went to Captain Flood at the West
Thrtieth-st. station, ask for aid in getting II
back Flood sent Hayman TO the Jefferson Mar
ket Court There the clerk told him that MS
affidavit about the poolroom would nave 10 De
corroborat ted before a warrant could be Issued.
Then Hayman went to Justice Jerome and a
raid was made OKeefe's place.
Hayman says that ever since the raid he mas
been expecting something to happen and he is
glad that n civil suit is the worst. The judg-
rnent on which Hayman was arrested is for
s325 in favor of Judson H. Grant a real estate
dealer. with an office in the Park Row Building.
who according to Hayman. is a friend OF
O'Keefe. The judgment is for money Hayman
borrowed from Grant TO use in the hay business.
He says the money has been repaid with large
interest. When Grant got the judgment nay
man refused to pay ii and told Grant TO get a
hody execution II he wanted 10. That was last
April and Hayman thinks 1t a peculiar coinc!-
dence that Grant, said to be O'keefe's friend,
did not get the execution until after RAID on
OKeefe's poolroom had been instisated by Hay
man.
Another peculiar thing in Hayman's opinion.
~ that he should have been asked by one or the
poolroom men to see Charles Fl. Machin. VINO
ne declares is Grants lawyer. He also says
that one Of the poolroon men suggested that
the trouble be fixed up" as O'keefe could not
reopen while Hayman pressed his complaint
HavInan refused to fix things up" and did not
see Mr. Mackin last Monday, according 20 MS
-nppointment Then on Tuesday ne was arrest
ed on the body execution.

writ Of habeas corpus. He has put Justice
Jerome and Assistant District Attorney Garvan
in possession of the facts and they are going
to try 10 find out how the arrest happened 70 be
made Just at this time.

teen men We're at work when the accident hap
