Cranks and arrest spree grip New York as eerie demands rise
In New York on November 1, a surge of crank activity leads to police action. Thomas Reilly, a 47 year old printer, arrives at the execution chamber demanding 100000 dollars, saying he was promised 75000 earlier. He pockets newspaper clippings on wealthy targets and a cryptic postal card to the surrogate hints at payments from Astors and Vanderbilts. Sergeant Fagan, Patrolman Rose, and others chase multiple confrontations with suspects, including John Dienholz and Henry Frank, involved in threats and odd schemes. Prendergast remains jailed, under scrutiny for his mental state, while a Chicago murder case casts a grim shadow over officials and public figures.
