By the Associated Press. MEMPHIS, Tenn., September 23.— A little green book, the day-by-day record of expenditures of an alleged ring of bootleggers, today by its dis- closures had caused the suspension of 38 members of the Memphis police force, many of them high ranking offictals of the department. The city's detective bureau was in confusion, following the removal of a deputy inspector and the chief of the narcotic division, two lieutenants, seven sergeants and two detectives. Other departments also had suffered losses. Found During Raid. The names’ of all men suspended, according to Police Commissioner oy s H. Allen, were found in the “pay-off” book with various sums noted against each. The book was found in April during & raid by Federal officers on the grocery store and alleged bootlegging establishment of John Bellomini. No action was taken against the men mamed in it at that time. Memphis officials and agents of the Department of Justice, however, were investi- sating. Allan McNamara, notorious char- acter and confessed partner of Bel- lomini, was pardoned from a long Prison term so that authorities might obtain evidence against police officers mamed in the book. Charged With Conspiracy. Bellomini, who is under bond on eharges of conspiracy to violate the prohibition law. and Joe Rinoladi, “bookkeeper” fer Bellomini, two ne- ra and John Bocchini facing charges of a also testified before groes, McN of Chicago, a similar nature, investigators. Diono de Chichetti and Narciso van Nuccl, alleged partners of Bello- ini, were trailed to their homes in Ttaly by the Dapartment of Justice. Their return will be sought. Pending action of a Federal grand Jury on bribery charges October 2, a police board will hear charges of in- competency and inefficiency brought against the officers. Commissioner Al- Jen expressed doubt that all the mamed were guilty. * Appointments to fill the vacancies were to be made today, he said. T A 0 AN Battleship Maine Survivors. From the Portland Press-Herald. Rather a strange meeting was that of three men in Belfast who were among the less than a hundred saved of the 356 men on board when the bat- tleship Maine was blown up in*Ha- wana Harbor February 15, 1898. Commodore Carl W. Jungen, then a first lieutenant on the ine, was on Thursday ‘entertained by Capt. Amos Bronson, now in command of the bat- tleship Arkansas, a mldshipman on the Maine on that fatal day. Down in Rockland, on the battleship Florida, Capt. Boyd made upithe trio of these survivors who, hurled into the water as the ship was sunk, ‘managed to es- cape with their lives. Of the 90 who were saved that night 10 died later, bringing the number down to 80 survivors. ‘That three of these should meet on the Maine coast after nearly 30 years is a’ strange co- incidence. Commodore Jungen is spending the Summer at Northport, having long since retired from the service, and his 5.:',“ meeting two of Ris boys wass “an@it is a most unusual prank.of fate which brought them together at this time: Invites Your Inspection ished in Walnut. of tapestry. tas] and appearance of shades of Walnut. obligation to purchase the Pedestal-base style.
