today: John McCain. a retired deputy
chief of the New York the department,
killed himself with a shot from a revolver.
Had he lived 84 hours longer he would
have been the first witness at the senate
investigation today to mtify to the facts
in his possession concerning the alleged
corruption fund raised by the oiiicers of
the lite department to promote their sal-
ary hill at Albany. He had told the facts,
or some of them. to l’resident La (troupe
of the tire department. to Elihu Root and
his partner, Colonel Howard. who are
counsel for The Press before the senate
investigating committee. Tie had With-
held from them certain of the facts which
at a late hour on odnesday night be dis—
covered to be in t ieir possession. Thurs-
.day morning Colonel Howard cent a more
cage to McCahe'ii house asking him to
come immediately to the oiiice of Root 8;
Clarke in the Mutual Lilo building.
Within 90 minutes after that message wee
sent hieCabc put a pistol to his head and
blew out his brains.
Mr. Root, who is representing The Press
in the senate investigation. was eounnel
for Chief McCaho in the controversy that
hieCabe had with the tire departrricnt six
or eight years ago. Commissioner Pur‘
ray made a still fight against McCabc and
worked him out of the fire department
and worked in his own brother. Charlea
D. Funny.
The Ex~ChicPa Diselosnrea.
When McCabe was dismissed from the
force, Mr. Root tool: the ease into the
courts aird secured McCaho's rainwate-
ment. The kind relations which were eu-
tablished at that time betwacn the chief
and his counsel had been maintained ever
since.
hlcCahe was a member of the Republic-
an organisation at the head of which was
Mr. Milholland. lie knew Commissioner
La Grange. who was also a member of
that organization. When General La
Grange became a commissioner of the fire
department, McCaho communicated to
him many extraordinary farts concerning
the operations of Tammany Hall in the
department and gave to the cr’rmmiusioncr
a vast amount of useful information.
Some part of this dealt with the subject
now undergoing investigation before the
senate committee. in his talks with the
commissioner McGuire did not profess to
have any permnnl knowledge as to the
raising of a corruption fund and summed
to be telling only what had come to him
from outside sourcex. Those facts be also
communicated to Colonel Howard and to
Mr. Rout.
Did Not “'nnt to Tell.
hlctfahe Was at Mr. Root's ofllce on
Wednesday and had there a long personal
eonvoreation with Mr. Boot. iic agreed
to talk with certain other oilicerii of the
department and to return to Mr. Boot
with the information thus obtained. He
did not return. Instead he committed
suicide.
Mr. .Root was inexpressihiy shocked
and grieved when the news of McCalle'l
death reached him. He was at luncheon
at the time in the lmwyore' club with hie
partner. Colonel lloward. A note was
handed to Mr. Boot from one of the tillil'litl
at his other: informing him of the death of
McGuire.
A rummage had been sent to McCabe by
Colonel Howard. it was a request for
McCabe to call at once. What was wanted
lefabe well know. He did not want to
testify and expressed a great deal of anx-
iety about the matter. Late on Wednes-
day night he is said'to have talked with a
man who, he thought. had revealed the
fur-ts. and be blamed him severely lor hav.
