SLUMP IN SLEUTH HOUNDS
The Civil Code Of Course, but Even
Police Regulations

Like Brer Rabbit, the police detective de-
partment has been lying very low the last
few days. The storm of Indignation that
is felt against the tribe on account of the
exposure of their nefarious methods of dc
ing business is enough to make them feel
apprehensive AS an argument in favo,
CT retaining the Small book system, ii
il said that the officers will have great
difficulty In securing convictions, and they
point to instances in support Of this claim
In addition to the civil code, which does
not give the detectives or any other officer
he right to throw people into prison with
out due process of law, the police regu!a-
tons are also clear on this point, as they
read:
When a prisoner is brought to the sta
ton and the officer in charge is salts
fled there is sufficient cause to hold
him, he shall make proper entry on the
blotter, search the prisoner, taking
from him any money or valuables found
on his person, together with any dam
gerous weapons or instruments, giving
him receipt for all property taken,
carefully marking such property with
the prisoners name and date; the prop
erty to be held for evidence to be marked
so and the latter to be turned over to

MISTAKEN IDENTITY
A SAN DIEGAN HAS AN UN-
PLEASANT EXPERIENCE
Without Sufficient Evidence and De-
spite Protestation the Ohcers
Arrest an Innocent Man

As was foreshadowed IN yesterdays Her
aid the arrest OF Carelton W. Miller on a
warrant upon the supposition that he was
Frank l.. Kuhn, turned out to be a case OF
mistaken identity and probably of incom-
uetence on the part Of The San Diego Of
ticers. Miller was given his liberty by JUS
tice Owens, as It was proved beyond any
doubt that he was entirely innocent OF the
alleged crime of enlightenment, not being
the man Kuhn, named by the warrant.
Some weeks ago Kuhn obtained round
trip ticket from Prescott. Ariz., to San
Diego from c. J. Lehman, the ticket broker
Of this city with the understanding that
the ticket was to be used by Kuhn to pass
him to San Diego and return from Los An
geles, and that the unused porion from here
to Prescott should be returned to Lehman.
Kuhn went to San Diego and is alleged to
have disposed of the unused portion to Is.
Fano of San Diego. Lehman communicated
with the latter, and was informed Of the
sale of the ticket. A complaint chargn 6
Kuhn with embezzlement was sworn out.
Deputy Constable Place was informed by
Fano that Miller was the man who had
disposed Of the ticket to him, and as he
ton sent, Miller was placed under arrest
| last Wednesday.
| Miller had been in the real estate bust
ness and was well known in San Diego.
but in spite of his protestat:ons of inno-
cence, he was not given an opportunity OF
proving his personality. He said that If
the officer would only allow him 10 COM
municate with various well-known peo-
pie in that city he could readily prove that
he was not Kuhn. Place and his chief, w.
A. Clark, however, proved obdurate and
wired the officers here to send for the sup
posed Kuhn. AS soon as Lehman saw the
prisoner yesterday he said tina, q mistake
had been committed. Tony Mesmer of the
United States hotel also identified Miller as
former guest at his place. Justice owens
was communicated with and promptly dis
charged Miller. The San Diego man is
greatly aggrieved about the outrage and
threatens to institute suit for damages.
