EIGHTY-Two INDICTMENTS AGAINST CITY OFFICIAL

HIGHTY-Two INDICTMENTS AGAINST CITY OFFICIALS
DISMISSED.
Memphis, Tenn, was startled by sensation in the
Criminal Court when Attorney General B. Peters
arose Just after the court had been convened and
moved chat all the Observation-Disclosures In
number-pending against President d. p. Hadden,
Fire and Police Commissioner James Lee IT,, Coun-
Gilman John +. Randle, County Trustee A. j. Har.
ris, and Wharfmaster Patrick Kallaher be dis
missed, which was done without the consent or
knowledge OF those gentlemen by Judge J. j. Du-
bose In Prepared opinion in which he states that
he accepted the result OF Thursdays election as
equivalent to the verdict OF jury, finding the
persons not guilty OF the ofIenses for
which they had severally been indicted. In expla-
nation OF the action OF Judge Dubose at the cleo
tion held Thursday for the taxing district officers,
the peoples or Hadden ticket was elected by an
Overwhelming majority after bitter personal
campaign, In which 1t was concluded by its oppo-
nentS that Hadden and his associates had ac-
counted for every dollar OF public funds and had
not appropriated to their one own use one cent.
The conduct OF Judge Dubose is criticised by the
dlcted otnc1alS and the community generally as
unprecedented, but Is accepted as a complete VIM
dicattOn.
