CHARGED.
George WalaitiS Before Councils
Investigating Committee.
THE STORIES DIFFER !
But the Weight Of Evidence is Against
the Accused Officer Policeman
CaSey'S Case is Postponed.

Councilmen Dougherty, Gable and
Kane, members of the lamp and watch
committee, met in the Borough Council
chamber last evening to hear witnesses
on the charges against Policemen Wal
aitis and Casey. The former was charged
with beating theuson of Letter Carrier
Bartsch and the latter is required to
explain how a prisoner succeeded in
making his escape.
When the time to proceed arrived Mr.
Gable asked that the Casey case be post
poned, as sufficient time had not been al
lowed to get the required witnesses and
the officer was allowed to leave for the
evening.
When the Bartsch case was called Mrs
John Bartsch, Jr., stepped forward and
stated that without any cause Policeman
Walaitis struck her boy four times with
cane twice across the back and twice
across the legs, the latter blows leaving
two deep welts That when Mrs
Bartsch called the officers attention
to the case ne gave her no satisfaction,
but was offensive.
Policeman Walaitis denied that he beat
the boy and said he had no recollection of
ever having seen him before. He further
stated that he chased boys off the street
upon request of Mrs. John Bartsch, Jr.
He was positive of this.
Mrs. Bartsch, jr,, denied that she ever
told the officer to chase boys off the street.
Mrs. Bartsch, Sr., testified that she was
the one who complained to the policeman
about boys gathering on the street that
he always chased small boys away, but
allowed large ones to gather on the street
so that the pavements were blocked.
Mrs. Bartsch, Jr., Mrs. Bartsoh, ST., and
Mrs. Davis testified that they saw the
policeman strike the boy and saw the
ridges left by the blows. The boy is a
deaf mute six years old.
Policeman Walaitis also stated that al
though Mrs. Bartsch, Jr., claimed that she
| saw him strike the boy she did not com.
plain to him until 9 o'clock, whereas It
was about Z o'clock when he told the
| child to go to his home. The officer then
| admitted that he lust tapped the hoy on
/ the legs with the cane.
Mrs. Bartsch and the other witnesses
stated that 1t was about half.past sever
and not nine o'clock when the complaint
of the beating was made to the officer.
The case was adjourned until next Wed
nesday evening to hear more testimony
as to the assault.

but as Republican or Democratic dele
gate, for the interests of Arizona would
be made subservIent to the purposes of
one party or the other. He briefly
showed the history of the decline of
silver interests and consequent de-
cline of prosperity under both Repub-
lican and Democratic legislation. The
subject of trusts was handled at great
length and the speaker said that they
had grown under the friendly influence
of both the old parties. He charged
that public corruption had become SO
shameless that high offices had been
given out in payment of political serv-
ices, and the appointments of Wana-
maker to the postmaster generalship
and of Van Allen to the Italian embassy
were cited.
Speaking of the effect of old party
rule upon Arizona he said that during
the past eleven years half of which had
been passed under one party and half
under the other there has been a steady
decline of values.
The tariff was described as a blind
which Democrat and Republican
leaders had agreed upon to obscure the
vision OF the people while trusts and
corporations should fatten upon the
blood of the country.
A pleasing feature of Gen. O'Neil's
speech was its freedom from personali-
ties. He made a vigorous attack upon
parties and principle but the character
of no man was assailed.
He was followed by Judge Woy the
candidate for councilman at large and
the meeting was closed by a brief ad-
dress by Rev. W. H. Winters county
candidate for the council.

POPULIST PRINCIPLES.
Their EnunCiatiOn Last Night
by General O'NeiII.
The Silver Question, Trusts and the
Unfaithfulness of the Old Par
ties Discussed.

Gen. w. 0. O'Neill, in the capacity
of the Peoples party candidate for dele
gate to congress, appeared last night
for the first time before Phoenix audi
ence. The meeting was well advertised
and very good audience confronted
the speaker. The meeting was called
to order by Moses Clanton, and Chair
man G. B. Norton, of the county CEN
trail committee, was elected to preside.
The stand was occupied by the speak
ers, county candidates and several
sympathetic ladies. The committee of
arrangements had exhibited greater
aesthetic taste than corresponding COM
mittees of the other two parties, for the
brilliant rays of Students lamp fell
upon bouquet of roses with which the
speakers table was beautifed.
General O'Neill was received with
considerable warmth. He began his
speech with an allusion to what seemed
to be the issue between the two old
parties in this territory, the proceedings
of the late loan commission. Without
discussing the merits of the charges
made against the members of the COM
mission, he said that if the charges
were sustained it was embezzlement.
The speaker charged inconsistency or
direliction of duty against Attorney
General Heney who, from the same
stand few nights before, had publicly
made the charge against Governor Muir.
ply and other members of the commits
sion. If the charges we're true the attor.
ney general had only proclaimed his
own violation of the law in not having
begun the prosecution of the mem bers
of the commission.
He next took up the silver question
and said that if either Mr.. Murphy OF
Mr.. Herndon were elected he would
not be elected as free silver delegate
