DETECTIVE W|THHOLDs
MYSTERIOUS WARRANTS

1t was given out at police headquar-
ters last night that the reason Detec-
tive Ryan had not served the John Doe
suspected of being implicated with
Charles F.. Cordes, w. G. Burton and
John Mcdonald in throwing chain
over the trolley wires at Sixteenth and
Church streets on May 81 was because
those warrants were intended for SER
vice on Richard Cornelius, president of
the carmen's union, and James Bowling,
secretary. Detective Ryan awaits In
structions in this matter from Chief
Dinan. The gravity of the offense and
the prominence Of the men against
whom the police say warrants were
issued renders the detective cautious.
There is no Disgusting the fact in po-
lice circles that the warrants are aimed
at the two highest officials in the car
mems union. The description of the
two men tallies exactly with the de-
scription given in the complaint. When
asked yesterday II he had arrested the
two other men alleged to have been
involved in the plot, Detective Ryan
smiled and said. Not yet, but I guess
we can get them whenever we want
them.''
In view of the strained industrial
conditions prevailing in the city, 1t was
stated last night by high official OF
the United Railroads that his company
had about decided to turn the entire at.
fair of the arrest and prosecution over
to the grand jury.
I'VE will give that body" he said.
"aIl the evidence in our possession
against the men already arrested and
to be arrested hereafter for the Of
Tense OF tampering with our wires. We
will do this in order to avoid the ac-
cusation that we are trying to railroad
our industrial opponents to the pent-
tentiary. That cry will be raised
against us-it has already been urged
but IL we hand over to the grand jury
against these men by our detectives we
shall be relieved OF any such imputa-
tion. The charge is most serious ana
