DEPUTY WARDEN WILSON YIELDS TO PER-
suAsIoN, THEN CHANGES MIND-DoUBT-
Full NOW If THERE IS A PRISONER
Charles Guden one of the two men acting as
Sheriff of Kings County, had prisoner yester-
day afternoon. Whether he has the man now Is
extremely doubtful The man was arrested by
Deputy Sheriff Mulcahy, one of those whose
designations Colonel Dixie accepted and VINO is
retained by Guden, and turned over to queen
by Justice Maddox, Of the Supreme Court
Guden kept his prisoner in his office until o'oo
o'clock and then took him to the Raymond-st
jail. where Deputy Warden Wilson. after some
argument. consented to receive the man, ana
then after Guden had left the Jail, set the pris-
free.
All the afternoon Guden and his supporters
guarded the prisoner in the tanitors room OF
the Kings County Courthouse The Raymond
Street Jail is still securely held by Norman 5.
Dixie Governor Odelrs Sheriff, and both Bor-
ough President Swanstrom and the Board OF
Estimate and Apportonment have refused 10
furnish Guden Jail Shortly after O'CLOCK
the Guden crowd decided to try the Raymond
Street Jail. So the old Sheriff, with Johnson
his chief clerk; Mulcahy, his deputy, and the
prisoner went around to see Warden Roach.
The warden was out. but Deputy Warden VIII
son was there, and after a good deal of talk
about bonds and such things he was induced to
accept the prisoner.
Then Guden went away satisfied and smiling,
but Wilson began to get nervous, and before the
elected Sheriff much more than around the
corner the prisoner was also in the street, salts
fed and smiling. Whether Guden recovered his
prisoner last night could not be learned. Jerry
A. Weinberg, Guden's counsel. refused TO say
anything and all Guden himself would say was:
II may have the man in my hat.
This was regarded last night as an attempt
by Guden to get foothold in the Raymond
Street Jail.
John NJ. Harding, accountant in the
Sheriff's office, was removed yesterday by
Colonel Dixie. There had been some friction pc
tween Harding and his chief Harding is
member of the Brooklyn Democracy from the
Fourteenth Ward.
Louis NJ Swasey has been made chief clerk
bv Colonel Dixie. He takes the place OF Mr..
Johnson who persisted in sticking by Guden.
