A HONESDALER
HELD FOR MURDER
Murder Dono Four Years Ago Pro
tected by Tammany Hall.
Peter Regan, better known as
'"Kid" Regan, brother of Police
Lieutenant Martin Regan, was lock
ed up In the Tombs, In New York, on
Saturday without ball, to await trial
on a charge of murder committed
April 13, 1905, In a dive then locat
ed In the cellar of the building on
the northwest corner of Thirty-first
street and Broadway. This place
was run by a man named Tobey,
and it was an all-night resort fre
quented by dissolute women and
men. Roy Walter Joyce was a bar
tender there, and was stabbed to
death, and "Kid" Regan Is the one
who has been formally charged with
the killing. In addition to being in
dicted for murder In the first degree,
Regan Is also indicted for assault In
the first degree In stabbing Edward
Weston in the same row.
Regan's indictment so long after
Joyce was killed and how he was as
sisted by members of the police force
make a remarkable story. That this
attempt to defeat justice has not been
successful is due solely to the work
done by Assistant District Attorney
James R. Ely.
A bench warrant was Issued for
Regan's arrest after the indictment
was filed Thursday, and the warrant
was handed over to Detectlvo Nor
man Fltzsimmons of the District At
torney's staff and Lieut. William
Boyle of Police Headquarters. It
took them all night to locate Regan,
for that young man was busy playing
poker.
The disappearance of every one
connected with the killing and the
lying of those who were believed to
have witnessed It flabbergasted in
vestigators. It was openly charged
that the police system was being used
for his protection by friends of his
brother, who was an old-time mem
ber of the force and very popular.
William McAdoo was then Police
Commissioner and did his best to
locate the missing Regan, finally of
fering $1,000 reward out of his own
pocket.
Such evidence as was obtained at
that time was submitted to the Grand
Jury and Regan was Indicted for
manslaughter in the first degree.
Assistant District Attorney Ely ob
tained this indictment, and when he
found that Regan was evidently 'un
der the protection of the police sys
tem he resolved he would get him
if he could.
It took time and outside detective
work to accomplish anything, but
such facts as Ely did get convinced
him more than ever that Regan was
being protected by the police. Mr.
Ely consulted with General Bingham,
Mr. McAdoo's successor, and got his
permission to put the matter up to
Inspector George McClusky. Mc
Clusky was told to get Regan and
promised to do his best. He did not
get him.
that case Bayle displayed the most
upon by McClusky to help find Re
gan. Of all the men who worked on
that case Boyle dlsployed the most
Interest in locating Regan. Just a
year ago Boyle heard that Regan
was In Los Angeles, Cal. He tele
graphed to the Chief of Police there
giving Regan's supposed address,
but did not tell anybody here about
It, and did not even send the tele
gram from Police Headquarters.
Regan was arrested just as he was
about to skip away on the strength
of a telegram of warning from a
man still connected with the Detec
tive Bureau.
Regan was held in Los Angeles
and his picture forwarded here for
Identification. Strange to say, none
of the men who worked on the
Joyce murder could positively Identl
fy that picture.
Lieut. J. J. Fogarty was sent to
Los Angeles, identified the suspect
and Regan was brought here. He
was kept in the Tombs for several
months and then released on $3,000
ball. District Attorney Ely saying
that all the witnesses had disappear
ed.
The effect of that declaration was
better than Mr. Ely expected. One
of the women witnesses, who had
been kept under closest watch,
promptly got drunk as soon as she
was set free. Liquor set her tongue
wagging and when she sobered up
she told all she knew. So did the
other witnesses.
Enough testimony was adduced
before the Grand Jury not all of It
was presented to get Regan In
dicted.
REV. DAVID O. HUGHES DEAD.
Father of Gov. Hughes Expires at
Executive Mansion.
The Rev. David C. Hughes, father
of Gov. Hughes, died at the Execu
tive Mansion in Albany last Wed
nesday night at 11 o'clock. The
Governor's father and mother have
been staying with him in Albany
this winter. Dr. Hughes suffered a
stroke of apoplexy a week ago at the
mansion, from which he never ral'
lied.
David Charles Hughes was of
Welsh parentage and was born at
Tredegar, Monmouthshire, on June
24, 1832. At first he followed the
trade of a printer, but devoting his
nights to study began his prepara
tlon for the ministry. Early at
traded to republican institutions, he
decided to make his home in the
United States, and came to this coun
try in 1865, at the age of 23. Ho
was then connected with the Metho
dist denomination and received as
slgnments to preach In Ora'nge and
Ulster counties of New York state.
Ho continued his studies and tor a
time was at Wsleyan University. He
then joined the Baptist denomina
tion and was ordained as pastor of
the. Baptist church at Glens Falls,
N. T., in 1869. Later he moved to
Sandy Hill, N. Y), and from there he
went to Oswego, where ho was pastor
of the West Baptist church. In
1869 he removed to Newark, N. J.,
becoming pastor of the Fifth Baptist
church.
In 1874, after a brief service as
one of the secretaries of the Ameri
can Bible Union, he took the pastor
ate of the Union Avenue Baptist
church of Greenpolnt, Brooklyn,
where he remained until 1884. Lat
er he was pastor of the Summit
Avenue Baptist church of Jersey
City, the Trinity Baptist church of
New York, the Jackson Street Bap
tist church of Scranton, Pa., and the
Pilgrim Baptist church of Brooklyn.
He retired from active pastoral
work in 1901, but -until last Fall
preached frequently, supplying vari
ous churches. He preached in the
Baptist church of Port Jervis and
the Y. M. C. A. on several occasions
and made many friends there. He
had a slight stroke of apoplexy last
June, and another and fatal stroke
came a week ago.
In November, 1860, he married
Mary Catherine Connelly at Kings
ton, N. Y., who survives him, with
their only son, Charles E. Hughes.
The funeral services were held at
the Executive Mansion on last Friday
afternoon at 3 o'clock.

MRS. GUGGENHEIM LOSES.
Chicago Courts Refuse to Let Her
Try to Upset Divorce She Got.
Chicago, Dec. 17. Judge Honore
entered an order to-day denying to
Mrs. Grace B. Guggenheim the right
to file a petition asking that the de
cree of divorce obtained by her In
1901 from William Guggenheim be
set aside.
The woman, who married again
shortly after her divorce, sought to
have the decree annulled on the
ground that It was obtained by
fraud, "as she was not a citizen of
Illinois when the case was tried.
The attempt to annul the decree
was combated by Mr. Guggenheim,
who also has married again.
