The Wild and woolly story printed in
the Times of Monday last regarding the
alleged attempted robbery of Arthur
Brayton. one of Insley's patrolmen, at
East Side park Sunday night by eight
men, and whose gallant defense of his
person and valuables, resulting In the
whole gang being put to flight, was
completely exposed yesterday in the
police court, when NJ. J. O'Brien and
| VIII Mcintyre were tried for disturbing
| the peace, and the whole thing shown
| to have been a baldfaced fake of the
| worst description.
Mcintyre and O'Brien were arrested

plaint of-two crib women, who said that
earlier in the evening the fellows had
created disturbance while they were
out riding. The facts as brought out
on the stand are as follows:
Hazel Lester and Maudie Sherwood
| are crib prostitutes, and on Sunday
evening went driving to East Side park
with Arthur Brayton, the detective.
While out at the entrance to the park
they We're accosted by five men in
light wagon, who stopped them and
spoke to the women. With two Of these
fellows Brayton had some words, and
pull him from his buggy, and one of
them struck him In the face, cutting
the bridge of his nose slightly.
Finally Brayton managed to blow his
police whistle. at which the men ran
away and got into the wagon with their
companions. driving back toward the
center of the city. Brayton followed
after them, but could not keep up with
their rig, so landed his fair companions
at their place of business in Bauer or
Paradise alley then drove his team to
the stable. Abeut O'Clock the Sherwood
woman saw someApe looking into the
window of her crib whom she thought
she recognized as one of the men who
| had attacked Brayton earlier in the
| evening. Accordingly she and Hazel
| Lester sought out the policeman, who
| rounded up five fellows who were hang
| ing around in the vicinity and marched
| them before the girls for Identification.
| They pointed out o Bren and Mcintyre,
potato peddler, and they were sent
! in and locked up.
| O'Brien was put on the stand and
testified that he had not been in or near
| East Side park for q year. On Sunday
last he was al Westlake all afternoon,
and in the evening was at home with his
wife at 1Os East Fourth street or out
walking with her until just before he

went out for a walk alone. Mcintyre
| also said he had not been near East
Side park on Sunday. but had been in
| the center of the city all day. At the
