According to the story, Doherty | spotted him and after stalling around him and viewing him from all an- gles, satisfled himself that the party was none other than Chapman him- self, Careful not to let the“man sce him make his preparations, Doherty | drew his gun and walking up behind the fellow, pressed the muzzle agalnet his back and ordered him to throw up his hands. Terrified, and trembling the man obeyed the order and a further one phat he march ahead of Doherty to the police sm- tion, The pollceman warned his pris- oner that one false move would mean his doom. Arriving at police headquarters, the prisoner was white as snow and trembling, making it impossible for him to epeak and in- quire the méaning of the affair. He was saved, however, by the appear- ance of Detective Sergeant Willlam McCue and Policeman Thomas J. Feeney, who identified him and vouched for him, DOCTOR AGQUITTED Bridgeport Practitioner Had.
