NEW YORK, Dec. 15.—Before the Lexow
committee got down to work today it was
clear that this was to be captains’ day with
the committee. A number of them were
on hand again. Among the first arrivals
were Captains Allaire, Strauss, Schmitt-
berger and Delaney. Allaire, who is a
grizzled war veteran, was in his usual
jovial mood. Schmittberger was quiet and
seemed anxious. Strauss was expectant,
While Delaney stood out in the hall and
smoked a cigar nonchalantly.
Mr. Gofi' examined some papers and
then offered Richard Croker a chance to
come forward and make an explanation of
the testimony given by Michael Moran yes-
terday.
He did it in these words:
“We have been extremely careful, gen-
tlemen of the committee, so far, that the
process of this committee should be used
only where it was warranted and proper.
A Chance For Croker.‘
‘ “In view, however, of the fact brought
out in yesterday’s testimony that a citizen
of Brooklyn paid compulsory money to a.
gentleman in a way that I consider con—
structive extortion, it is. I think, a right
use of the committee‘s process that I
should extend to' Mr. Richard Crokcr the
privilegcs'of the witness chair. '
“If the gentleman name-d, Mr. Croker,
has any desire or wish to vindicate himself
or to explain the receiving of money that
was constructive extortion, we extend to
himthe privileges of our witness stand. ”
Captain Creedon took the stand.
“N OW, captain. have you reflected over-
night over your testimony and that given
by other witnesses here?” was Mr. Gofi’s
first question. _
“I have,” answered the captain firmly.
“Do you appreciate, Captain Creedon,”
began Mr. Goff gently, “the very unen-
viable position you were put in yesterday?”
H I (10. M
Mr. Gofi continued along that line, lead-
ing the captain up to the point where he
could tell all that had happened.
- ‘ ‘ You hesitated long before you answered
the first question propounded to you yes—
terday. Can you tell us why?”
He waited a long time and then said:
“I did not desire and did not wish to
implicate anybody else, especially people
whom I supposed were my friends and
were present in court. I did not wish to
be placed in the light of an informer.”
“You were willing to take great risk to
your own danger in order to save your
friends. ”
”Yes, sir, " in a low voice.
$15,000 For the Captaincy.
The captain hesitated awhile. Conflict-
ing emotions showed in his face, and then
he started off by telling how he had passed
civil service. It was in December, 1891,
that he heard who was to be appointed as
captains. A friend of his asked him why
he didn’t go to one of the commissioners
who had one of the appointments.
“I was at the desk one night when this
friend came in. He spoke to me again
about the matter. He said that Reppen—
hagen was the County Democracy leader in
the district, and that I ought to see him.
Reppenhagen came around to see me about
it. ‘ Reppenhagcn went to see Commis-
sioner Voorhis and in half an hour return-
ed to me at the station house. He stated
that Commissioner Voorhis would not
make any appointment that day, and that
he would see me again. He saw me sub-
sequently and stated that the place could
be hadfor $12,000. I told him it was con-
siderable money.”
“You were a poor man, ” interrupted
Mr. Goff.
“I was, sir. But I told him I would see
my friends. I saw a number of my friends
and told them Whatever they agreed to I
would stand by. Reppenhagen told me
that another man had $12, 000 up, and if I
wanted the place I must put up $3,000”
more.
People turned in the audience and looked
at each other. '
“Who' was the other man?” asked Mr.
i Goff.
“Must I say?” pleaded Captain Creedon.
”You must,” said Mr. Goff quietly.
“Well, sir, it was Sergeant Wiegand. ”
He is now acting captain in the Four-
teenth precinct.
“By what arrangement was that money
given to Mr. Snell?”
“By the general proposition.”
“Had you any conversation with Snell
about it?”
“Well, with his brother-in-law, Dan
Patterson. ”
“Was it Reppenhagen who suggested
Snell as the one to hold the money?”
“ Yes. The money was to be paid on the
order of Mr. Rourke. .
John J. Martin Called on Him.
”The matter ran along until one after-
noon, when John J. Martin came to the
station house looking for me. He said
Commissioner Voorhis wanted to see me.
I Went over and saw Commissioner Voor-
his. He spoke to me about my record on
the force and said he had made up his
mind to appoint me.
“The commissioner said he had heard
that people over in the Tenth ward had
subscribed a sum of money for me. He
wanted to know if it was true.
“I told him I had no knowledge of it at
all. I then went back to the station
house, but was shortly afterward—perhaps
20 minutes—telephoned for back to his
office. When I got there, I found I was ap-
pointed captain and assigned to the First
precinct.”
“Did you understand,” asked Senator
O’Connor, “that Commissioner Voorhis
asked you that so that he would have a
crack to trawl through and protect him-
self?” .
“That’s the way I looked at it,” was
the answer.

In the fall of 1889 he began'to suffer
from stone in the bladder, and his mis-
eries were indescribable. Consulting
an eminent physician in Philadelphia,
he was told that he would have to sub-
mit to a surgical opeiation. So much
did he dread the result, for if unsuc-
cessful it meant death, that he put off
the on] day as long as possible. While
in this frame of mind he chanced to.
see a‘nOtice cf Dr. David Kennedy’s
Favorite Remrdy. Although disheart-
ened with his many futile attempts with
medicine, he was induced to make one
more trial.
, On July 1, 1893, he bought the first
bottle Of Dr. David Kennedy’s Favor-
ite Remedy, and within a month had
experienced beneficial results, and be-
fore he had finished the third bottle
the gravel was completely dissolved
and his sufferings at an end.
Mr. Neill feels that he owes a lasting
debt of gratitude to Dr. Kennedy’s
Remedy. tie never fails to recom-
mend it for disorders of the bladder
and urinary organs and says “it will
effect a cure if one be possible i”
The real; value of Dr. David Ken-
nedy’s avorite Remedy lies in the fact
that it dissolves the excess of uric acid
in the blood. Many of the ailments
people suffer from—for instance, rheu-
matism, nervousness, dyspepsia, kid-,
ney, liver and urinary troubles, and
the sickness peculiar to women, all
come from this one cause.
Favorite Remedy dissolves this acid
and. expels it from the system, thus
curing the disease. In cases of scro-
fula, diabetes, Bright’s disease, and
stone in the bladder, it never fails.
Dr. Dav1d Kennedy’s Favorite Rem-
edy is for sale by all druggists, at $1 a
bottle, or six for $5, which brings a.
treatment Within the reach of all.
