THOMAS BYRNEs Police Inspector

to arrest the three first named and Inspector
Byrnes and two officers started out for McGloin IN"
structions without stating the cause,
The Inspector directed his two men to lock the
doors leading into hall at the place he visited This
left the front door the only means OF exit, ana by
that door the Inspector entered. He proceeded to
rear room where seated McGloin and several
others. There the two policemen who had locked the
side doors Joined him. All the occupants of the room
were ordered to back against the wall and hold up
their arms McGoin stood at one end of the line.
The assigned to search the party began mis- work
at the other end. When he came to McGloln he
looked carefully at a watch that he had taken from
McGloin's pocket. Then he passed the watch to the
Inspector, who drew a bit Of paper from his pocket
and seemed to compare the watch with written de-
scrption

"Take that man to the otice.' he sald ana NC
GIoin was under arrest.
1t was intended that McGoin should not know
why he was taken and that his companions should
have no occasion to suspect the true cause. When
McGoin arrived at Headquarters Moran. Morrissey
and Banfied already there. but no one of them
knew of the arrest of the others, and nothing had
been said to any of them to disclose the cause of
arrest. They allowed to remain in separate
cells undsturbed for several hours. All each pris-
oner knew was that he had been brought in as
suspicious character
That classification has done excellent service in
police work. Persons unjustly detained under 1t
have nothing TO fear, but others are left to guess
what the police and in the solitude OF the cell
their wits sharpened to recall the various things

they have done that might subject them to arrest
and to decide how to meet charges in respect to
whichever of these things may account for their
present detention The cell reflections of such per-
sons not only tax ingenuity but breed fear
When the cell experience that day had gone as
far as he thought necessary Inspector Byrnes sent
for McGloin. AS the Inspector sat at his desk he
backed close to a window overlooking court at
Headquarters. For that occasion he had chair
placed very the desk and facing the window
The occupant of that chair must see what passed in
the court and If it made any impression on him the
Inspector would know it from his appearance.
It had been arranged that twenty minutes after

woman was obtained to assist in further work.
She had previously frequented the Tenderloin. Once
when arrested she told story pitiful that funds
provided through the police to send her TO her
home in Northern New York Inspector Byrnes had
charge of the Detective Bureau at Headquarters at
the time of the Haner murder. On the way home
one night he saw crowd gathered at corner 1t
scattered his approach leaving this woman there
alone. The Inspector recognized her and asked her
why she had returned to the city. She said the story
of her former life here had reached her home making
it impossible for her to remain there. She dreaded
to come back but there was nothing else to do. The
Inspector expressed the opinion that something might
be had if she really wanted it.

Come to the Office tomorrow at three and L will

She kept the appointment As result OF the IN
tervew which then occurred she promised to in
gratate herself with Michael e. McGoin, one of the
Seventh Avenue Gang; report on his movements,
far she might know of them, and to hold her own
counsel She had no idea why this was to be done,
except that the police wished to keep track of him.
There was hint that he had already engaged in
crime. She left to infer that it might be desr-
able at some time to recognize him and that this
means had been chosen to make his face known to
certain police
In a day she reported that she had become
friendly with McGlon. From time to time neckties

George Lauthier, with stubbe beard and dressed

The question timed with reference to the
crossing of the court by Banfeld, which occurred
exactly as planned. McGloin flung himself to the

COMPLAINT GENERAL
Throughout This Section oil
State Chicken Thieves
Are Busy.
ORGANIZED GANG WORKS

Complaints are general throughout
this section of the state against chick
en- thieves. 1t is claimed there is an
organized gang, such as a few years
ago was alleged to exist for horse steal
ing, purposes, now engaged in raiding
hen house roosts. Complaints Of the
work of the chicken thieves have come
from nearly every county between Ad.
ans and Franklin. The thieves al
ways pick for the best there is in the
flock and the size of the flock alone
limits the amount of stealing.
There have been but scattered re-
ports Of thieving in the vicinity OF
Richmond. Several weeks ago maraud-
ers visited Newman Hill and other
parts of Fairview and selected several
choice biddies from the roosts. Thieves
have been at work Unfortunately in
parts Of the south and east ends, but
the police have not received notice Of
any serious thieveing. A chicken thief
has no protection under the law in the
country and he is looked upon as the
meanest thing next to horsethief.

not be detected. 1t can thus be ap.
