Canada — He SARNIA, Ontario, August 1.—McGarigle, the Chicago boodler, arrived here yesterday morn- ing by the schooner Edward Blake. The Blake and the Marsh were in the same tow, and while still in American waters, were approached by detectives on board the Oriole who demanded that the Blake be cast loose, which was done. Immediately a yawl left the schooner with McGarigie and struck out for ths Canadian shore. McGarigie was landed st Point Edward and anven at once to Courtwright, twelve miles Below, on the river. This was only a blind, however, as he was driven back and is here now. 1 — — — — HOW M’GARIGLE ESCAPED. Statements of Captains Freer and Irwin The Fugitive Interviewed. Pos? Huron, Mich., August 1.—The foliow- ing la another account of McGarigie’s landing in Canada: It appears that when the tug Orient approached the schooner Blake, which was fast in the tow of four vessels, the schooner Marsh next ahead dropped the tow line amd the Blake dropped rapidly astern. Her @aptain rushed forward, together with his rev, and raised a tremendous row for @ couple of minutes, kegping the attention of those on board the täg. Mean- while McGariglie, who had been transferred to the Mafsb in the straits, as reported some days ago. was bundled into a yawi and being pulled ashore. When the officers on the tug discovered the ruse, every effort was made to catch the yawl, but it got into shoal water safely before they could reach it. McGarigle jump@ ashore and rap rapidly up the street, | wh ws of the schooners jeered at the men en the tug. CAPT. FREER'S STORY. A reporter for a Chicago paper then went aboard the schooner Marsh, whose captain, | Freer, told the following story: ‘‘While we | were loading a cargo of cedurinthe straits, a ' tug came alongside and wanted to know if I had seen anything of the Blake. I said I had not, and he then told me that they were de- tectives,and that they believed tha’ McGarigle was aboard of the Blake. Well, I live in Chicago, and, of course, know McGarigle by reputation, although I had never seen bim ‘but once. I told the men that he would | probably come along in aday or two, and | then extended them the hospitality of my ves- sel. Theentirecrew then came aboard and went down tothe cabin, andl opened a bot- tie of my choicest sherry brandy. While they were drinking, I slipped on deck for a minute and saw the Blake coming along down the straits before afine breeze of wind. Well, I don't believe in harboring criminals or any- thing ofthat kind, but onthe impulse of the moment, I thought that there was a fellow-being with a wife and several children, who was sorry for what wrong he had done and was trying to keep out of the penitentiary. I hardly know what made me do it, but I slipped back into the cabin and, without saying anything about the approach- ing vessel, got out some more bottles. The detectives relished the stuff and they had a rollicking, jolly time of it. When they came on deck I don’t believe any one of them could have told a fishing-smack from a steamboat. But by this time the Blake was out of sight. M’GARIGLE TRANSFEREED. „Well, I finished loading and started down for Buffalo. About loo lock Saturday night loverhauled the Blake on Lake Huron and told them that officers were laying for her. A few minutes laterthe Blake headed into me and stove in the starboard quarter of my ves- sel. At tune same time a man jumped aboard and the vessels drifted apart. I recognized him a8 MeGarigle, and, with tears stream- ing down his face, he begged me to put bim ashore. I told him I would and did. I never in my life saw | | | | face. When vour tug came alongside he was in the cabin, shaking like a man with the palsy. He thought the tug bad been sent out to capture him, but if it had been, I don’t think he would have been taken alive. Not that he would have made any resistance, but I am pretty sure he would have jumped over- board and drowned himself before he would have zone back to prison. When I lowered the boat and told him we were ready he seemed paralyzed, and could hardly move. I jumped down into the cabin and helped him on deck, and steadied him until he got into the boat. CAPT. IRWIN'S ACCOUNT. While Capt. F eer was telling this story the tow had rounded w, and when this point was reached was picking up the Blake, which had come down the river undersail. She came alongside of the Marsh, the reporter jumped aboard of her and asked Capt. Irwin to give some account of how he came to enter into the conspiracy to run McGarigle into Canada. He was very reticent and at first refused to say a word about it. After a good deal of coaxing he said: ‘‘When I got to Chi- A Couple of Schooner Captains Statements of Capts. Freer and Irwin— A Lively Boat Chase—The Mysterious Friend Who Made Arrangements for want to know anything that might get me into ascrape. Well, I wasto let him know when I would be ready to sail, and Saturday after- noon I met him na buggy on Fifth avenue. We drove around, and I arranged with him to have his friend meet me that night at the cigar store atthe corner of Rush and Michigan streets. I also told him wnen the vessel would be ready, and said I would drop down the river and lie atthe north pler until the party who was to be known as Williams showed up at the appointed place. I cleared at the barge office at 8 o’clock and then went over to the cigar store. A little after 10 o'clock aman, whom I recognized by the description given me, came in. I asked him if his name was Williams. He nodded his head and we went down to the vessel together. Then we towed outand got along all right only the wind has been tantalizing during almost the entire voyage. * Capt. Irwin confirmed the story of the mas- tor ot the schooner Higgie as to meeting the Blake off Manistee. He would make no def - nite admissions regarding the person who ar- ranged for McGarigle’s passage. In nearly all of his conversation he spoke guardedly, but he let out enough to strengthen the suspicion that Dr. St. John and Janitor Dell knew more aboutthe escape of MeGarigle than anyone else in Chicago. M'GARIGLE INTERVIEWED. The reporter then went back to Sarnia, and after considerable search found McGarigle, who appeared terribly changed. His features are haggard and sallow and his eyes havea haunted expression. ‘‘l am worn out with worry and excite- ment, he said, and it would be simply torture forme to comply to the extent you desire. Iam sick and need rest so badly that I must ask you to wait until to-morrow. Say for me, however, that I will be back to Chicago in less than three months, and when I come I will not be hounded as a rascally thief.
