KANSAS CITY POLICE HEAD HAS RESIGNED Phones From Denver Following Star’s Publication of South Side Escapade Kansas City, May 16 (®—The resignation by telegraph of William A. Shreeve, chief of police here for four years, today was followed by an announcement by police com- missioners that no investigation was contemplated of published reports of an escapade in a fashionable south side home. Shreeve sent his resignation to the police commissioners from Den- ver yesterday, a few hours after the Kansas City Star published a re- port of his unannounced appearance in the home of Mr. and Mrs. Leslie R. Choate here last Friday night and of his alleged threat to kill Mrs. Choate and himself because she had become reconciled with her husband after a separation of sev- eral months. The Star said Shreeve left the house after Mrs. Choate called the district police station and reported that the chief had entered her home Whil'e intoxicated and was brandishing a plstol. When asked about the Choate es- capade over long distance telephone, Shreeve said “rcports of the affair were garbled.” He declined to dis- cuss details and said he planned to remain in Colorade for about two weeks with Mrs, Shreeve O;uruh'om On The Weather ‘Washington, May 16.—Forecast for Southern New England: In- creasing cloudiness tonight, proba- bly followed by showers Thursday.
