THE SPOTTER GUILTY.

Patrolman EnGle, Who Assaulted Daily,
Convicted in Police Court
The assault and battery case against Pa
trolman Engle on complaint OF Fred J..
Daily, came up for trial in the Police Court
yesterday. The trial was an interesting
one and attracted large crowd of specta-
tors. Many witnesses we're called pro and
con, but the prepondersnce of testimony
was in favor of the plaintiff. The police
man tried in the way of defense. 10 show
that Daily assaulted him first. On
the other hand, eye-witnesses of the
affair contradicted this statement. Attorney
Peter Doran, who conducted the case for
Daily, made q strong plea, and gave the
police department q strong scoring for using
unfair methods in the pursuit of violators
of the liquor law. EDg.e in his testimony
admitted that he had been instructed By
Sergeant Hurley to try and secure q con-
viction by buying whisky. The jury, after
remaining out short time, brought in a
verdict Of guilty. Judge Holmes deferred
sentence until this morning.
