South Orange Contractor Ac-
cuses Them of Stealing Over

SEARCH FOR HIS SON
Patrick E. Mccormick Threatens
to Obtain Warrants for
Arrest of Policemen.

The theft of two gold watches, val
ued at $3.50; an o%vercoat and a kit Of
carpenters tools, from the house of
Patrick e. Mccormick. a contractor at
1850 South Orange avenue, South Or
ange, has been put up to five policemen
of the Oranges by Mr.. Mccormick, who
says he will have war; ants issued for
their arrest and bring suit against the
municipal les employing the bluecoats.
Mr.. Mccormick. IN reporting his loss
today, said that at l a. m. yesterday
two South Orange policemen, accom-
panied by three East Orange officers,
awakened him and his family from
their slumbers, and with a warrant de-
manded entrance TO his home in order
to arrest his son, John Mccormick, 20
years old, who was charged with as
sault and battery on Franz Sanger. of
80 Bedford street, East Orange, more
than TWO weeks ago.
After a half hours search through
every room in the house the policemen
did not find young Mccormick, who
had not been sleeping home since the
alleged assault. Yesterday he gave
himself up o the East Orange police,
and was released in $500 bail by Act
ing Recorder Mott.
The South Orange police we're asked
by the East Orange police authorities
to pick up Mccormick on the night he
was accused of attacking SAUCER, who
is said to be confined to his bed, suffer-
ing from his injuries. The South Or
ange police did not arrest the accused,
and two members of the East Orange
force appeared 1t the South Orange
police station early yesterday morning
and two South Orange patrolmen were
then detailed by Sergeant Kenny to
aid the East Orange officers in the
search for young Mccormick.
Mr.. Mccormick alleges that the po-
licemen, three of whom were dressed
In citizens clothes. threatened to burn
the house down unless he allowed them
TO enter. He also claims that the shock
necessitated a doctors care for his
wife.
Acting Marshal Thomas J. Sherry, of
South Orange after questioning Chief
of Police Bdl. of East Orange, yester-
day, was told by the head of the East
Orange police department that he did
not know of his men being in South
Orange.
Mr.. Mccormick declared today that
after the policemen left his house he
missed the two gold watches, the over
coat and the tools. He said they
searched bureau drawers and cabinets,
although processing to be searching
only for the young man.
