THECRONIN MURDER MYSTERY.

Tha Special Grand Jury Begin* Its ^Investigation of the Cue.

THE LION AWAKE AND WATCHING EVENTS.

The New York «Arrestfr^Clan-Na-Gael Policemen to Go— Other Arrests Made.

CHICAGO, June 13.—The principal' intereat in tbe Cronin case wia centered this morning in the grand jury that met _at lO «s m. in Judge Shephard's oourt.

The strict orders of aeorecy whichwere instituted yesterday were in nowise departed from. A, bailiff atood guard at tbe foot of the stairs below the juryroom no one but witnesses and officers of the oourt were even allowed to ascend to the floor above. In accordance with the general summons issued, various witnesses arrived early on the scene. Mia. Conklin and John J. Cronin were (he first Co make an appearance, the former leaning upon the arm of the murdered man's brother. The Carlsons, father and son, came next, and were fol lowed by Captain Scheuttler and Pat Dinao, the liveryman.

Luke Dillon and P. W. Dunn spent a few minutes in the jury-room, but only to give suggestions as to the propriety of summoning certain gentlemen who might supply missing links in the long ohain of circumstantial evidence. Martinaon, tbe expressman, who hauled the furniture to the Carlsen cottage, and Thiel, the bartender, who found the bloody trunk after it had been abandoned by Woodruff and his accomplices, were both escorted to the jury-room by an accommodating bailiff.

Mrs. Conklin was the first witnses who testified, and she occupied the chair about twenty minutes. Her testimony was only a repetition of that which has been many times published, except that she attempted a minute description of the man who, by means'of the ice man's card, decoyed Cronin to his death, on May 4th. This description, BO far as Mrs. Conklin's memory extended, tallied perfectly with the published description of McDonald, the blacksmith now under arrest in New York.

The remainder of the jury's investigation during the forenoon was singularly devoid of interest. Pat Dinan, the livery man, took the stand, repeated his oft-told story, and waa excused. His evidence varied in nowise from his testimony before the coroner's jury.

Old man Carlson, the owner of the defcth cottage, detailed the particulars of ibe renting of the property, and waa v'requieed to tax his memory to ita utmost for a faithful description of the parties who took ptiaaeefcion'of thehoueeand

'rri&Kt

forenoon and was csll^Tffi^feceor twice to enlighten the jury as to the scope and result of his investigation in certain particulars. Chief Hubbard made his appearance in citizen's dress, and was alive to aU new developments of interest.

All the witnesses examined during the afternoon had previously testified at the coroner's inquest. They were Detective Palmer, Dinan's hostler, Moreland M. E. McHale, Revell's carpet layer: Henry Roesch, who found the body, and Officer Lorch, who found the trunk key in the cottage. It was understood that they simply repeated the statements they made at the inquest. The jury adjourned at 4 p. m. until to-morrow.

A From Snlllvan's Wife. CHICAGO, June 13.—A messenger handed Mr. Sullivan a small piece of paper that looked like a letter. The prisoner ran his eyes over its oontents, smiled, folded the paper up and put it in his breast pocket. It was a message from his wife. The messenger spoke through the. grating to Mr. Sullivan for over a quarter of an hour and then retired. The nature of the message from the faithful wife of the Irish leader could not be ascertained, but it waa understood that it was a lettor dated either from London or Queenstown and informing him that she would be on her way to America by the time the message reached his hands.

THE LION AWAKS.

Scotland Yard Men Watching the Development* In the Case.

NEW YORK, June 13.—The Mail and Express this evening prints the Bubjoined story under these headlines in large display:

THE LION AWAKE,

AND'WATOHING EVKRY MOVEMENT IN THR CKOM1N CASK, O •ETF.CTIVE FROM SCOTLAND YARD.

A detective from Scotland Yard, who wore black whiskers and showed a bunch of white teeth, stood on Chambers street, west of the county oourt house,today from 10 to 11 o'clock. He had his eye on 291 Broadway, which is the office of David-M. Neuberger, the counBel for John J. Maroney, accused of complicity in the murder of Dr. Cronin at Chicago. Twenty yards away from the Sootlaud Yard detective waa Pat Dolan, of Inspector Byrnes' staff. He was within a few feet of Broadway and Chambers street,and his eyes wore fas totted on No. 291 Broadway. When Edward J. Rowe, the ex-Clan-na-Gael man, and Lawyer Neuberger left the Broadway building Detective Dolan followed them toward the Tombs. "Dolan is a big fellow, always ready for a fight, and it would take just such a man ashetograpL with a giant like Rowe. The Scotland Yard detective recognized Rowe aahe left Ufa Broadway building and quickly turned his back. In a moment, however, he bad faced about and again had hia eye fixed on No. 291 Broadway. A Mail and Express reporter asked him the time of day. Hia lower lip dropped from some physical disability, and his white teeth ehowed plainly as he replied: "It is 10:50." The man had a pronounced English aooent, and waa still poet at 11:50 a. m.

Major Rudolph Fitzpatnck, of No. 127 west Sixty-third street, who wn adjutant general in the Fenian army that invaded Canada, is one of the men willing to swear that Maroney waa in his place on the day that Cronin waa murdered. In spite of any denials Inspector JByroea may make, it may be said with

confidence that one of his detectives looking after Fitzpetrfeft. Tbe latter has an English wife, who is sn ardent of Irish aspirations. Fits ckand his wife are relied u| wo who will help establish an alibi Maroney. The attempt to prove the prisoner's innooenos will not stop with the evidence of Fitzpatnck and his wife, and E. J. Rowe. One of Maroney's callers yesterday at the tombe was Thomas J. Dennehy, of the Wolftone club, of Brooklyn. Heholda a political office in Kings county, and is a trusted man in the anti-Devoy-Breslin wing of the Clan-na-Gael. Maroney, Dennehy and General Miller—the latter a member of th« Press club, now dead, want across the Atlantic two yean ago on a secret mission. Maroney waa known aa Melville. Miller aiinerintended operations from Paris, ana Dennehy's assumed named is not known. Dennehy, however, has many Clan-na-Gael men in hia camp, and he is expected to take part in the alibi business.

The exeoutive committee of the ClanneUael, or United Brotherhood of America, met laat night, and decided that Maroney and McDonald Should be kept in New York, if poaeible by any form of law. All the members did not meet together. Some were reached by telegraph. The Hon. Patrick Egan, who is on the ocean, waa not, of course, reached. The meeting is said to have been held in Philadel and thoee alleged to have in present are Thomas Ronanye of No. 5 Baekm&n street, New York Thomas Tierney of No. 112 Berry street, Brooklyn J. J. Bradley of No. 1,221 Chestnut street, Philaddlphia E. O'Meagher Condon of the New York press club, and John M. Leonard of Fall River, Mass. The meeting may not have been held in Philadelphia, but on good authority it is alleged to have been held there. These men are anxious about Maroney, because the British government wants him.

Senator John Sherman haa a bill in the senate which would, if it became a law, hand Maroney, alias Melville, over to British juatioa. It is the desire of the Clan-Na-Gael to get Maroney free and out of the way..

Maroney and McDonald.

NEW YORK, June 13.—The petitione upon which Judge Andrewalaet evening granted writs of habeas corpus for the production in the supreme oourt of John J. Maroney and Ch pries McDonald, the men arrested here for complicity in the Cronin murder, were filed to-day in the supreme oourt. That in MoDonald'a case was made by Thomas J. Dennehy and presented by John Delahanty, and that in Maroney's case waa made fay Edward J. Rowe, and presented by D. M. Neuberger. Thi petitioners describe themselves aa "near friends," and allege

that the men are not held by legal oom&gJb. Corydo^l mitment, and that there ie an/entire t£ond5nf!Si.5f AifiE't"B«?"-ilSris for Cronin a aenoe of identification. ,, The matter/removal were arranged by Clan-na-Gael come up for argumeatto?morrow. men in that city. Says the Brooklyn

"cfaytrom Governor Fifer,1 the surrender of John J. Marone Charles McDonald, charged wit! murder ot Dr. Cronin. The govei denied the application without preju to a renewal of the same, aimply the grounds: 1. That the application waa not accompanied by an indictment. 2. That no proof whatever was presented, showing that the accused are guilty of the crime charged against them, as required by the law of this and all other states. The application waa baaed solely upon anaffi lavit made upon "information and belief."

Another New York Arrest.

KANSAS CITY, Mo., June 13.—Michael Boland, recorder of Kansas City, whose

namelhaa been connected with tl A of Alexander Sullivan and other members of the Clan-Na-Gael, in connection with the Cronin murder mystery, expressed^ the opinion to a Journal reporter to-* night that Cronin waa murdered by members ot the Clan-Na-Gael. He compared the -crime to the Phoenix park massacre but declared his positive belief that neither the order a body, nor any of the leaders or most prominent members waa reeponeible. He thought that aome of the more ignorant members sharing the general belief that Cronin was a apy, killed him in a mistaken idea that they were doini the order a service. Recorder Bolani received aa absurd a suggestion that Sullivan, or any of the leadera were even remotely connected with the conapiracy, saying that it for no other reaaon than that of common sense Sullivan and other open enemiee ot Cronin would hold aloof from any unlawful act. .. Thomas Dwnoid Ula Slfht

CHICAGO, June 13.—Chief ot Police Hnbbard saya thatThomaa Desmond, an Iriah Nationaliat ot San Franciaoo, who ia auapected of oomplicity in the Cronin murder, and, who, it ia said, to have given New York deteotivee the slip a few daya ago, haa been located in San Franciaoo, and that handa can be laid on him when ever he ia wanted. It is alleged that Desmond registered at McCoy's how in this City on April 16th, and that between that date and April 21st, when be left the hotel, 1M held numeroua oonfereneee with the man who registered aa "Melville," bnt who ia believed to be Maroney, now under arreat in New York.

CHICAGO, June 13.—'When the reported interview with W. A. Pinkerton, in New York City, waa ahown toJChief ot Police Hubbard to-day, Mr. Hubbard read and re-read it for several miatitan before aayi&g a word. The main point of the dispatch was, that, in Mr. Pinkerton'a (minion, there were too many members of the Clan-na-Gael on the Chic police tone. "Well, Billy talk," eaid Mr. Hubbard, at length, "and I can agree with him on eome pointa. Regarding the Clan-Na-Oael, I am satisfied that Pinkerton is all right."' A reporter hinted that it would be interesting to know what Mr. Hnbbard propoeed to da There was a pause for half a minute, during which the chief toyed with aome letters in hie deak. He then eaid deliberately: "I don't care to ahawerthat question now in words," and with a grim smile added that acta would tell. The phaaie placed upon "words" held no -ambignowaness to his hearers aa to the chiefs intention to make a clean sweep,

The Clan na Gael Report la the Cronin Case Lomxnr, June 13.—It haa learned that the Clan na Gael membets who signed the majority report in the Cronin case, are James G. Ragera ot Brooklyn, N. Y., P. A. O'Boyleof Pittstown, Penn., Christopher F. Byroee of Sexonville, Maaa^ and J. D. MoMahon of Rome,N. Y.

CHICAGO, June 13.—Chief Hubbard received a dispatch this afternoon announcing the arrest of a mysterious individual who is believed to be badly wanted in connection with the Cronin case. The chief would say nothing about the capture, except that the fellow resembled Frank Williams, one of the men who rented the Carlson cottage.'

Michael Iloland Under Surveillance.

CHICAGO, June 13.—Chief Police Hubbard admitted to-day that he had two men in Kansas City watching Michael Boland, the present recorder of police in that city ana former member of the notorious triangle. "Are you going to arrest Boland?" the chief was aaked. "That will depend upon the action of the grand jury," replied.the chief evaaively. "But my men are not in Kansas City_ for the purpose of arresting Mr. Boland just now." The facta in the case are Baidto be that the state's attorney expects an indictment against Boland, and the chiefs officers are in Kansas City read/ to take Boland when the indiotment is returned.

Some of them were from Crawford county, bnt are not thought to be White Caps. For the past two or three days Corydon has been full of people, and threats were made on all aides. The fact of the wounded persons being atill alive it was hoped would keep the prisoners in safety. The bodies were out down at 7:30 o'clock this morning. The facee were badly distorted. The coroner of Harrison county held an inqueat and found that the men had come to their death by broken necks, caused by hanging.
