to me, by Magistrate Pencil. As they
were brought In I Issued a discharge and
turned them out.
About 9 o'clock I was sitting still nt
tho sergeant's desk, and Superintendent
Itoblnson, James Iloblhgon, came in nnd
went over to tho nontenant' room. In
about two minutes n reporter came In. I
said, 'The superintendent of police has Just
gene Into the lloutenant's room. Try to
get an Intervlow with lilm." Ho waited
outside tho room and In a few minutes he
came to me and he snys, "Ho Just went
out." I said, "Well, did ou Interview
lilm?" He said, "He told me ho was hero
as a private cltlren and not ns a police
ofllclal."
About half-past 9 or twenty inlnules of
10 Lieutenant Bennett walked Into the ser
geant's room. lie tajs. "Has any ono got
a gun here?" And the street fccrgeant said,
"I can get you one," nnd he walked Into
the bathroom and came out with a revolver
with a barrel about three and a half Inches
long and he laid It on tho palm of his left
hand, I think. He said. "I want this for
McCiorlck" or "for McGoldrlck," I don't re
member which name It was. Ho says, "Ha
might meet some of these thugs and get
killed "
Shortly after that the lieutenant left
tho station house and went out the front
door, and Special Ofllcer Wlrtschaftcr and
Special officer Murphy came Into tho ter
geant's room and sat on the tailing thete
of tho sergeant's disk with theli feet up
on the desk. They had been Hlltlne," thero
about llvo or ten minutes when tho police
wlro rang, und the bcrgcant ellcd, "A
wagouload of men" Muiphy and Win
schafter ran out of tho sergeant's loom
and aiound tho hall nnd out the front
door, and as t looked over my shoulder
through tho window to te Lanccy street
there was iin automobile standing n front

In thero with a lot of other men nnd left
In about two minutes another call came
In over tho phone This call was from
Sixth and Spruce streets In two minutes
another rail ramc In and tho sergeant said,
"A hospital case at Si-ith and South."
Mr Tautano then told of tho arrcl of
Mascia and Costello. IIo Raid lie went to
the hospital and saw Kpple.v on a cot
Q Was Kpptev dead when vou saw him?
A llpple was dead I got back to Magis
trate tlatrlgan's office and I telephoned I
got the Mayor's office on the phone and I
asked for his secret aiy, and Mr. Joe Smith,
tho Mayor's secretary, answered the phone.
I said "Mr. Smith, there Is one officer
already here dead In the hospital and I am
Informed that Mr. Carey and Mr. Maurer
arc beaten up und tlies arc in the Jefferson
Hospital. ' I Mild, "I unlit to know whrthei
.vour brother Intend to take the responsl

Hre talking too fast." I lepeuted what
linil t a, nnd lie xitlil, "1 will look Into

Then I went to tho Jefferson Ilonpital
In a tat Icab. 1 saw Mr i arc being treated
In the opetatlng room nnd Mr Maurer vvjs
there at the same time Fiom thcie 1
went to City Hall and up to the District
Attornej's olllce and tried to phone the
District Attorney or one of his detectlvis
so that 1 might take tho detective back to
the district with me. Secial people were
there, and somo one said, "Well. Mr. Gor
don represents the committee from the
Fifth Ward Why not see him?" So I
rushed over to Mr. Gordon's office, and
the stenographer there said he was out.
It was then 12 o'clock, und 1 tltought pos
sibly I might see Mr ffotan In the Union
League nnd Dr Minllow and I went to the
Union League and took lunch. I phoned
from there to the Plnkerton Detects e Agen
cy and asked fot four men to go with mo
to the Third district. They asked mo
whether I would come up and look them
over and I said I would
When I arrived they said they didn't have
any nt that time, and I phoned down to
John B. Tayloi's otllce fur somebody and
he said he hadn't unj I went from thero to
the William Burns's office In the Wldener
Building nnd tried to get four 'men there. 1
was unable to get them
Then I took the marhlne and left Doctor
Shallow's oillce at tho Jcfferfon Hospital
and returned to Mugietiute Harrlgau's
office. When I came In Mercantile Appraiser
Carey was sitting there; und paid, "What
did you do with those prisoners?" I said
I sent them to the Central Station, to tho
Detective Bureau He said, "Mime one told
me you held them without ball" I said,
"No, I couldn't hold them without ball, be
cause I was hurrying to take jour state
ment. Somo ono told me you were, shot."
"Well," he said, "hurry back to tho De
tective Uute.iu. because," ho said, "they let
a in in i go out last night and they urn liable
to let thoso two out, too."
I left the ofllco ami went to tho detective
bureau with niy constable, Bets. I told
the sergeant thero that I wanted to lodge
the warrant ngalnst the prisoners, nnd ho
said C'optnln of Detectives Tate was out nnd
I had better watt until he camo back.
I said I wanted to see tho prisoners, that
I was a magistrate and had a warrant and
wished to place them tinder arrest under
that warrant. So he. took me to tho cell
room, and tho sergeant at the desk nt that
time that was about 2:15 or 2.30 ho said,
"You can't see the prisoners." Ho said,
"Captain Tate has left strict orders that no
one Is to see these prisoners." "Well," I
said, "I insist on Identifying the men that
you have here now." As I went In they
were taking Costello out of the cell room
to the hallway. Then they brought Mascla
out and stood Mascla against the cell-room
door, and I Identified Mascla ns the man
who was brought into tho Thlid District
station house.
After a little frlrtlon with Cnptaln Tnto
and others at City Hall, Mr. Stevenson
said, he returned to tho Fifth Ward station
house Summing up his observations there,
ho said.
After n'doik the only busluett that
seemed to be cnrrlfd ou in the station home
was receiving election returns nnd report
ing those election returns to lllreitur Wil
son's oflirr.
