John Mulcahey.' Now Close
ly Guarded. May Have
Been Companion of

The prosecution will probably in
troduce another witness in the Beat
tie case, either to-day or later. may
be in rebuttal. This witness. giving
the name Of John Mulcahey, was pick
er up on Broad street yesterday at
ternoon, about o'clock. by Sergeant
Frank Kraft, Of the Second Precinct,
on tne charge of being drunk and
begging ON the street.
When searched at the station house
the officer was startled to discover
quite a bulky package of letters and
kilograms addressed to Henry Clay
Beattie. Jr,, in the prisoners pocket.
Major Werner was communicated
with, and later the detectives In the
case-Scherer Wren and wiltshire
went to the station house and had an
interview with the man. After which
they gave orders that no one should
see or converse with him.
Given Letters to Destroy.
1t was learned. however, that in
explaining the presence OF the letters
in has pocket, he stated that Beatue
had given them to him to destroy,
but that he had not done so, feeling
that at some time they might be Of
value to some one
Among the communications was one
from Beatties sister, expressing con-
fdence in him. and hoping that he
would come home again. and show T.
ing great love for the brother, whe-
Their guilty or not.
The most important thing. however,
in connection with the discovery of
/ the letters was the recovery Of two
receipts from DIR. Franklin for ser
vices rendered Beulah Binford.
/ Told TO isolate Man
Whether the detectives place any
value upon what Information they
secured from the prisoner Is conjec-
ture, but il must be of some import
ance, from the fact that after the
| interview instruction was given the
sergeant at the station to isolate the
man and not let him communicate
with any one.
/ 1t is not believed that the letters
count for much. for the Franklin in

Tense
! The chances are that in the inter-
view the prisoner disclosed certain
Information relating to Beattie and

while Henry Beattie was there. and
that they became quite sociable."
