Thonipson, chairman citizens’ committe>, requires, in. th? Judgment of the board, that George W. McElfresh and James A. McDevitt, members of the detective force Metropolitan police, should be held to an- Swer, under the laws governing the police force, and the major of police Is directed to suspend them, the said George W. McEifresh and James A. MeDevitt, from auty, and to prohibit them from aby Intercourse or communication with any other Members of the police“iorce, of whatever rank or grade, without the permission of the board of Com- missioners.” The order was communicated through the proper channels to the detecuves named. THE TRANSACTIONS WHICH LED TO THE ABOYR ACTION, ‘The circumstances attending the so-called Ma- gruder forgery, out of which the charge which has resulted in the suspension of Detectives McDevitt and McElfresh grew are stated to be substantially as follows: A number of forgeries was perpetrated here in October, 1879, and among them a check In the name of John Magruder, drawn on Riggs & Co., and cashed by them, For this offense five professional thieves and forgers were arrested under the names of Monroe, Owens, Kelly, G' and Clark, and were Gischarged on Une October for want of evidence. The evite: ever, It 18 charged, wasnot only at hand, but the Witnesses could have been found at the’ banking house of Riggs & Co., and the store of Mr. Ma- gruder. The escane of the offenders ts explained by the following circumstances, attested by Mr. Wm. P. Wood: Monroe, who was known, also, a8 Churles Brockw:y or Charles Seymour, after his arrest ar ranged with Wood to secure hi release, the terms belng that Monroe was to pay £500 for coursel, $500 to Wood, and return the money to purties who had been robbed. After that arrangement was made Seymour desired to be released therefrom, because, as he alleged, the detective force had agreed to. Procure bis discharge for $500, and he gave the hame of OMcer McDevitt as the person through Whom the negotlation was made, Whereupon Wood agreed to release Seymour {roi bis contract upon condition that he (Wood) should have full knowledge of all of the details uttending the pro- curing of bis discharge by McDevitt and his asso- Clates, and was to be a witness to the final trans- action between them. AS a part of the plan it Was arranged that Seymour sould deposit bis watch, diamond pin and otuer effects as security for his return, and thereupon be allowed to absent himself from’ the city for a day or two in order to obtain the $500 Which was to be pald for his dis- charge. . Ip pursuance of this arrangement Seymour went away. On bis return to this city with his money, Col, Wood went to Seymour's room at the St. James | hotel, where he was feigning sickness as an ex- | cuse for requiring the meeting to take place tn his |room, and Charles Flinders came in, and Col Wood said to Seymour, “Charley, make your set- Uement only with Mr. McDevitt.” Flinders re. plied, “That ts all right; McDevitt is down stairs. Col. Wood went down ‘stairs, and Stepping into the front room saw McDevitt Standing in front of the house. At this ttme Flinders came down stairs and met McDevitt and Wood; saw somethin, pa=s between them, which he judged to be mor Col. Wood Immediately went up-stairs and asked Seymour If he had given Fiinders the money and Seymour sald he hud. One or two days after the payment was finally made and the parties had fed, George W. McEifresh had a conversation with Col, Wood In relation to this matter, and the latter informed him that he intended to expose MeDe- Vill’s conduct. McEliresh begged him, for God's sake, not to do so; “Iam in it,” be said, “and it will ruin me and my famtty.” Col, Wood informed McElfresh that his clerk, Mr. Prather, had made a complete record of this transaction, and McElfresh asked that he might have an interview with Prather and paid to the latter $30 for the destruction of the written docu- ment, saying at tne time that the money had been divided among so many that it was with diMculty that he could obtain so much for him (Prather.) DETECTIVE M'ELFKESH DECLINES TO TALK. Detective McElfresh replied to a STaR reporter Who asked him to-day what he had to say about the action of the Commissioners, by inquiring: “Is that all you have to say?” “That's all,” said the reporter. “I would ike to know what you and McDevitt have to say.” “Then I wish you a happy New Year,” said Mc- Eitresh, Shaking the reporter's hand and beating a retrea “They will Probatiy have something to say When the trial commences.” said ex-Detective Sergeant, who was with McKifresh, and gallantly covered his retreat.
