investigation Of the dozen or more
.5S's pawned during: the. week, which
followed Of the Hanier shooting, showed
that all but one Of. them had been
pledged by persons who very evident
~ had no connection with the murder.
The I. lt9 single. exception was one Michael
McGloin,s whom the pawnbroker in
question identified by means Of his
p l'lls1L N n the Rouges' gallery.
McGloln's gun had been pawned on
the morning l:1g after the murder, and.
VINE the police had little difficulty

NOT snred OF evidence to connect
MIN with the Hanier case, beyond the
fact that ne had been absent from
home ON the night Of the shooting in

Know, all right, but you can't convict
any OF 'em without a confession-and

Wei nave TO try the fourth degree"
Fourth degree? What's that?"
Just a little way of getting at the
truth when man wants to hold out
on you" was Byrnes' answer. You
think there's no doubt that McGloin's
the man? Have him brought to this
office tomorrow morning, promptly at

At the time specified. McGloin. snl.
