By the Assoclated Press. : NEW YORK, June 23—-“Chile” Acuna, the stool pigeon who was slllrdrd almost as carefully as a Presi~ ent, is dead. His passing was not unexpected, but the manner of it was a surprise. In- stead of the violent demise 15 “blue- ribbon” policemen were assigned to pre- vent, he expired peacefully last night in Brooklyn Eye and Ear Hospital. He| had been in a coma after an operation for a brain tumor. A swarthy young man of unabashed demeanor, Acuna burst into notoriety in 1930 by 'telling how detectives hired him to “get the goods” on defenseless and sometimes innocent women. ‘The scandal he broke abolished the old vice | 1:Id and sent some of its members to 8ing Sing Prison. Under a ruling by police heads, the shadowy figure of the “unknown man” was eliminated from such cases. Acuna appeared apparently out of nowhere to testify in the appellate | court’s inquiry conducted by Isidore J. Kresel and by Samuel Seabury, who later went on to inguire into the whole city government. ‘The young man. who had been a ‘waiter at $80 a month before he moved into the big money class, was given six flcked leutenants as a police guard. ter the guard was increased, until he wes forced to move because neighbors complained the constant shift. of pro- tecting policemen bothered them. - .
