Inspector Grant said today that he had not_ heard. of the charges and therefore made no statement. The charges of former Detective ‘Weedon grew out of his transfer frou: detective headquarters to a precinet station, and his subsequent retir. ment from the police department. They were written /by him and pre- sented personally to Maj. Gessford. Former Detective Weedon was for many years in charge of the detective bureau from midnight until § a.m. The c.aarges having been made un- der oath, it is stated, there is not ing to be done but put them belore trial board.
