EX-OFFICER ROCHE
IS IN TROUBLE
tie Was Arrested on q Warrant Charg.
ing Attempted Bribery.
Chief of Police RObling is Acting as
Prosecutor. Roche Gave Bail for
His Appearance at Court and Dis.
pensed With Hearing. He Slipped
Five Dollars Into the Licutcnant's
Hand Was it ROche's Own
Money?

Ex-Police officer David p Roche was
arrested yesterday afternoon on war;
rant sworn out by Chief of Police RO-
bling before alderman Millar charging
attempted bribery of a police officer.
Roche gave bail in the sum of $500 for
his appearance at court. John T..
Grimes. of the firm of Grimes 4 Flan-
merry prOprietOrs of the Arlington, quail
ified as his bondsman.
The story told by Chief Robling Ia
that Roche met Lieutenant John Davis
on Lackawanna avenue a week ago and
slipped an envelope in the lieutenant's s
fist. The lieutenant walked over where
the light would shine on it and opened
it, taking out the greenback in the
presence of two officers.
The lieutenant then put the money
back and went to the rooms where a
poker establishment is conducted. gave
the money to the proprietor and went
away Chief Robling says that there
Is evidence against Roche for trying to
bribe PatrOlman Marker on another Oc-
casiOn.
A GAMBLING HOUSE ATTACHE.
Accompanying Roche when he tried
to grease the palm of the lieutenant's 8
hand was an attache of gambling
house, and that led the lieutenant to
suspect Davids game. The next morn
ing he told Chief Robling about it.,
the chief spoke to Mayor Bailey, and
after a careful consideration they came
to the conclusion to swear out war;
, rant for him.
Chief of Police Robling Is of the
opinion that Roche's companion, when
Roche handed the envelope to the lieu
tenant, was not a party to the trans
action. He was apparently made a
| catspaw by Roche. Roche before meet
ing Davis visited the gambling estab-
lishment referred to and asked for
money. saying it was to be used in the
interest of 'the house." 1t was refused
him. He then left, after asking the
companion mentioned to accompany
him and gave the envelope containing
the money to Davis.
