One flashing a gold badge, said: “I am Detective McConville of the Central Office and these two mon are Secret rvice agents. A charge of white slavery has been made against you and you are under arrest.” Dr. Nye protested, but his callers wore businesslike and he thought they might be officers. They took him down to Jefferson Market Police Court and j were just entering the court room when one of the three said: “I'm thirsty and we'll probably be in here quite a while. Let's go and have a drink first.” Dr. Nye and the men representing themselves to be law officers went to a saloon at Eighth Street and Sixth Avenue and had several drinks in a private room. Finally the man who called himself McConville suggested that the matter might be “sottied.” Dr. Nye had $800 with him. He gave this to the trio with the under. standing that it was part payment on the sum of $1,000, in consideration of which the complaint was to be dropped. “Some of this money,” said the man calling himself McConvil to the reporters at Jefferson Market Police Court and at the Federal Building. We don't want to have anything more to do with this and we'll send a reporter after the rest of the money.” ‘When Dr. Nye got home and gave the affair some thought he decided to call up Police Headquarters. Dete tives Boyle and McGee were sent him, and tt didn't take long to find that he had been victimized by blac mailers. McGee camped out in the doctor's home and yesterday evening Hall led and presented a card insoribed rederick Wright, the Inte ws Service, Limited.” Dr, 6 presence of McGee, gay who represented himself as coming from McConville, $100 in marked bills, Halil was arre by McGee as he was leaving the house, MINISTER, A SUICIDE, HOMELESS AND LONELY; GIVES CHARITY $1,900 Three Failures and Lack of Se- curing Another Parish Made Him Despondent.
