TWO VAGRANT CASES But They Grew Out of the Fight Between , Policemen. Detective Lacy, the Prosecuting Wit= mess, Not Ready to Proceed—May Go Over Until Tomorrow. etd And now Detective Lacy is charged with taking sides in the fight that has been go- ing on in the police department for a num- ber of months. This struggle, which it is openly asserted has greatly impaired the efficiency of the force, commenced soon after Sergt. John C. Daley was sent to the fourth precinct, when he waged war on the illegal sellers of rum, many of whom were particularly friendly with some policemen who were doing duty in that section. The 1aid on the Fat Men’s Beneficial Associa- tion, which was closely followed by the dismissal of several officers and the trans- fer of others, had the effect of adding fuel to the flames and charges and counter charges against policemen have since been made. Many policemen have been tried on charges and the whisky element has, it is charged, had some of Sergt. Daley's sup- porters “shadowed” on their beats. It is openly stated that some of the liquor men - | are willing to pay money in order to get @ case against Daley or two of his sup- porters, Klinger and Bruce. Green Charged With Vagrancy. Today the police muddle was called to the attention of the public when a colored man named Solomon Green was called upon to answer a charge of vagrancy. Ordinar- ily @ vagrancy case would not attract any particular attention, but this case was a little out of the regular run of alleged vagrants. Portions of the warrant against the negro were underscored in red ink, there being two red lires under the name “Solomon Green.” When the name was called the police in the court room drew nearer to the front in order to hear every word that was to be said for and against the prisoner, for they knew that there would be some in- teresting developments. Green, who has for a long time worked with Sergt. Daley and given valuable in- formation concerning the location of thieves and_plunder, was in the dock under arrest. It was known to the officers that he had done this sort of work for Daley, and for that reason they expected to hear some- thing which would at least amuse them. And they were not disappointed. The prisoner stepped to the rail of the dock when calied and said “not guilty” when Deputy Clerk Harper read to him the information charging him with being guilty of various provisions of the vagrancy act. Detective Lacy's name was the only name on the warrant or information as a witness for the prosecution, and consequently he was the only witness notified to be in court segainst Green. Lawyer Fountain Peyton, for the defend- ant, had summoned a number of policemen to be in court, and, of course, they were on hand. Counsel then notified the court that he was ready for trial. Detective Lacy Wants Postponement. But Detective Lacy was not ready, and he asked that the case go over until to- morrow. He charged that he had not been fairly treated at the hands of the South Washington police, who had arrested Green and only notified him of the arrest this morning, too late for him to get his wit- nesses, and that was why he wanted the case to go over. To this counsel for the prisoner objected. “There's nothing in the case to begin with,” he told the court. “It’s nothing but a renewal of the fight amongst the police, where it is one crowd against another. It’s the same old fight, and it ought to be put down in some way, for it's a disgrace that such a thing should be per- mitted to continue.” “Yes,” said Judge Kimball, “it ought to be ended. Instead of fighting lawbreakers the police seem to be fighting each other, and certainly it should be stopped.” Mr. Pugh said it was a remarkable co- incidence that the police should come into court with all of Green’s witnesses sum- moned, and none of the witnesses for the prosecution, and Detective Lacy only noti- fied this morning of the arrest. Lawyer Peyton explained that that was because Detective Lacy had not given the names of his witnesses. He then asked that the deferdant be released on his own recognizance for his appearance tomorrow. “We all know Sol. Green,” he said, “and there is no doubt about his being here.” Mr. Pugh, for the prosecution, was em- phatic in his objection to such a course being yu, a ye that oe} — amount nd, , be required for his appearaike. Lawyer Peyton’s Declaration. This brought Lawyer Peyton to his feet, and he declared that the prosecution against Green was the result of his assist- ing the police in one section to the exclu- sion of others. Recently, he said, Green gave @ robbery case away to the officers, || and Detective Lacy is sore about it. Mr. Pugh said that the detective had brought the case because he had been or- dered to do so by his superior officers at headquarters, Detective Lacy said that business men had made cé@mplaint that Green and his vompanion, Smallwood, had been in their places and asked women to treat them, and that the women who refused them were afterward arrested. Judge Kimball said that in view of the objection made by the prosecuting attor- ney he could not release Green on his per- sonal bonds, but would fix the security at $100, Lawyer Peyton said he could not object to the court's action, but he thought that the neglect of the prosecuting witness in the case to have his witnesses in court should certainly not prove a hardship of the defendant and cause him to suffer im- prisonment before trial. Ernest, alias “Cap.” Smallwood, another one of Sergt. Daley's assistants, was simt- larly charged, and the case went over to be tried tomorrow, What Inspector Hollinberger Says. Inspector Hollinberger told a Star re- porter that the arrest of the colored men was the rerult of a complaint made by business men in South Washington. The complaint was in reference to their con- duct with women, and he said that the in- vestigation satisfied the officer that the men should be taken to court. If the statements made are true, and women who refused are arrested for that reason, Inspector Hollinberger thinks something ought to be done. The arrest, he says, has nothing to do with Green's being one of Sergt. Daley's assistants. On the other hand, Daley’s friends think the arrest is a move against the sergeant. The trial in court tomorrow will determine Just what there ts i. the case. —2—— Associated C ities Division. The annual meeting of the sixth subdivis- ion, Associated Charities, was held Tuesday at the North Presbyterian Church. The room was nea-ly full of those interested in the work and great enthusiasm was mani- fested. The secretary's record of the work of last winte: was read. It showed the largest amount of aid ever rendered by this division. The means were largely fur- nished through the central office from the funds of the citizens’ committee, who audited end paid bills amounting to more than $900, Officers were elected as follows: Presi- dent, Rev. J. H. Bradford; vice presidents, Dr. J. O, adams and Mrs. Mary E. Hood; secretary, Mrs. A. M. Purvis; treasurer, Miss Gertrude Jones; representative to central board, Miss J. Taylor; auditor, Waldo G. Perry. Besides the above, the board of fifteen consists of Rev. Dr. Rams- deil, Dr. J. R. Thomson, Mrs. J. O. Wight, Miss Julia Balch, Mrs. W. H. Gunnison, Thos. P.
