The Arch Enemy Of Good Government
VOLUME VII

L IlC IA I'll AllOl1ly VI
The reading public during the days of the past
week has been given the shocking details of story Of
police corruption in New York City so horrible as to
tax the creduty of the average citizen 1t is alleged
that tribute has been levied vice of various kinds
netting $2,4ooooo year. The dive saloons, the dis
orderly houses the gambling dens all contribute to
this fund. These revelations have all come about
through most brutal murder, which, according to
ports was committed by order of lieutenant of police
Already nformer has been assassinated, and the
lives of others threatened. The further this murder
plot which has resulted in disclosures of police graft
is unraveled the clearly is the saloon the
leading consprator. 1t has contributed literally to
this $2,4ooooo protection fund it has served
rendezvous for the gangsters who collected and dis
bursed this hush money it has played its part the
ante-room to the gambling hall and brothel, and has
been safe retreat for thugs careless enough
under the suspicion of honest police officers No need
here for this story Of New Yos shame. The public has
had ample information through the columns Of the
newspapers, and who reads Understandings
will deny the saloons conspicuous part in it ALL 1t is
Just such cases this that ndelby brand the saloon
a menace to civil government The people ia
mar with the saloons part in promoting corrupt
government-they used to it, and because of this
fact the saloon has escaped their wrath Only the
usual the people, 1t is to be hoped that this
murder plot is unusual enough in its giant proper
tons to make the people, not only of New York City
but the country over, sit up and take notice.
The Saloons Hand in Chcago's Government.
It may do that. 1t certainly has attracted par
tcuar attention to a murder case here in our own
city of Chicago which has been given considerable
prominence the last few days by the daily press
Folks are beginning to wonder if the money of the
criminal and the saloon gangster has pased the arm
of any Chicago police officers 1t is the old story Of
saloon murder and according these press reports
of the subsequent protection of the murderer from the
police by the saloon.

down in the saloon of Enrght & Thompson, on West
Van Buren, street. The shooting occurred on Sunday
day that the state law says saloons must be closed
He was shot in the presence of many witnesses, and
the murderer, Thomas HALEY, was known by these
witnesses After shooting McNer, HALEY pointed
the weapon the equenters Of the place and backed
out of the door, After he got outside he watched the
saloon door and forbade those inside to come
the street Efforts to communicate with the police
get physician the telephone from the saloon
failed because the instrument of order After
almost an hour McNeir, who was slowly bleeding to
death from his wound, rushed of the door for help.
He had only taken few steps outside the door when
HALEY shot him the second time McNeir staggered
a moment and fell dead His slayer ran away before
the arrival of the police. Subsequent information
shows that he direct the saloon of Barney"
Grogan. The bartender in Grogan's place concealed
him in barn owned by Grogan where he remained
the entire week until apprehended by the police.
Are Criminals Protected by the Saloon?
Certainly the saloon played a most conspicuous
part in this brutal murder, and the press of Chi
cago is strongly intmating that the protection from
the saloon Grogan extends further than merely
concealing the crimnal-that his influence with the
police is sufficient to the discplinng of the off
who arrested the murderer. The Chicago Tribune
of July 30 tells the story follows
Boss Barney" Grogan rejoiced yesterday when F. J.
Crowley plain clothes policeman reduced uniform
Crowley had helped capture Thomas HALEY, wanted for
murder HALEY taken early in the morning in Grogans
barn in the of 324 South Center
Chief of Police McWeeny ordered Crowley back o

garding Crowey's aid in the of slayer for whom
the police of Chicago and other cities been searching
for week.
Haley after his arrest admitted to police he had
been Grogans week ago Monday. He refused
admit the saloon knew he in hiding there but
said Johnny Marshall bartender Grogan, had
taken him the barn safe place to sic low for while
He also admitted had been fed regularly while in hiding

Better With Depth.

those who know, that the values are aver

temporary, and in a circular letter ac-
companying tho notice of tho annual

over their private wire yesterday after
noon:
Logan G. Bryan, New York-The mar
ket was under heavy pressure during the
first hour but the bulk OF the selling ap-
peared to be for short account. On the

outside account was not OF sufficient
extent to warrant the element committed
to the side of declining prices TO press
their advantage and as consequence
when short covering was attempted prices
rallied easily. with the closing In most
Instances above last nights level The
manner In which the foreign markets re-
ceived the announcement OF an extra ses
sion OF congress did much toward in
spring confidence here and II appeared
10 be the consensus OF opinion that as
business interests realize what Is before

governed in such manner as will tend
to relieve the burden OF changes in tariff
There will doubtless be witnessed from
time TO time liquidation OF the shares OF
such companies whose earning capacity
may be influenced to material extent
bv tariff changes so that occasionally
the stock market will have to withstand
pressure of that nature, but on the whole
during the past few days IL has been quite
noticeable that present holders OF securi-
ties have not taken fright at the various
predictions OF distress circulated by
eleventh hour bears, SO that while tenn
in reasonable bounds rising tendencies
In the stock market ii would seem that
bearIsh operations around present levels
are not likely to afford much profits.
