When asked yesterday for the true
reason for tho resignation of Officer
Frank CLEMSON from the police force,
Mayor Conuell assured a TRIBUNE re-
por ter that no officer on the force was
better liked or merited the confidence
of his superior officers more than Pa
trolman Gleason, and that the resjgna-
tion could only be attributed to some
false statement made to Officer Glsas IN
concerning his statuS on the force.

that Patrolmsn Gleason was one of the

learned nothing since the resignation
which would influence me to change
my mind
"Concerping Mr. Gleason's statement
TO TRIBUNE reporter that false
charges had been made against him
and tnat he had enemies at work
secretly trying to oust him, can only
surmise that someone has been foully
dsluding him. No charges have been
preferred against him. nor do l believe
any charges could be made against
him.
