Captain Price’s Lawyer Arrested-4N0 ' More Counsel Allowed. NEW‘ YORK, J une 7.-—When the Ma-i zet investigating committee resumed its session yesterday, the first thing done was to declare that in the future none of the witnesses subpoenaed to appear be- fore the committee should be' represented by counsel. This was followed shortly after by the excluding from the court- room of Police Captain Price’s counsel, H. C. Henderson, who created a slight sensation at the previous sitting of the‘ committee last week. He was given to understand that if he wished to attend the hearing it should be only as a spec- tator. . . The committee then, in an attempt to show corI‘upt practices by Police Captain Price in the Tenderloin district, brought out from John 0. Ellis, former proprietor . of a Sixth avenue resort, a story of “protection” that did not protect. His- statement involved cx-Alderman A. B. Waite. Ellis stated that IVa-ite came to his house in W'est Thirty—eighth street. last October and collected $200 for police. protection for the resort he was running’ in Sixth avenue. I \Vaite a check for $50 tomake up the _'ngreed monthly installment of $250, but: .that Waite refused the check. Ellis said that he took the cash to Waite'is house that night and paid it to him there. ' The payment, he .said. ,did not " secure the “protection” promised, and 5the police harassed him as much as ever. Late in the afternoon Magistrate Olm~ " sted issued a warrant for the arrest of .H. 0;. Henderson,:Pi-ice’s counsel, charg- ing him ivith disorderly conduct. The charge was preferred by Counsel Clarke and iS’ér‘gennkat-arms Crawford and was the result of the wrangle at the session? lust Week. ”Mr. Henderson gave bail in, $300.
