time, none of which had ever been
wiped out, either by dismissal or proof
of innocence. These charges were for
neglect of duty for taking brlDe OIL
$100 and for neglecting to close dlSor-
derly houses when their existence had
been brought to his attention
Mr.. Moss then went into detailed
list of establishments that are known
to be kept running at all hours OF the
night and asked the Chief why he had
not closed them up before. Not re-
ceiVing any satisfactory answer Mr..
Moss then asked Chief Devery why he
allowed a certain house in the upper
broadway district to continue its eX-
istence, although there were almost
daily complaints from persons of re-
f1nement living in the neighborhood.
been obtained sufficient evidence to
warrant the arrest of the woman who
runs the house. There could be no pc
lice interference until proof positive
was secured
Then Mr.. Moss asked the witness if
it was not because of the political in
fluence of the woman proprietor that
the police were held back. Devery de-
MED that this was so.
The question of allowing two period
icals which circulated around the ten
derloin district to continue publication
was then put to Devery. The Chief
said that these papers had been toned
down considerably, and that he had
called the attention of Anthony Com
stock to them, but he was slightly
mixed as to the particular occasion on
which he reminded Mr.. Comstock of
their circulation.
No other important witnesses were
examined, but Frank Croker's name
was called. He was not present.

Long ago Assomoir was regarded as

NJ Zola wrote his novel Assomoirs have
nrovinces and now number nearly half a
million. The French people, who are ira
ditionally temperate, are steadily falling
victims to alcoholism. Petit verre is now
ubiouitous. The reason for this is not far
to seek. BY the law passed in 1880 no IL
cense is required to sell wines or spirits;
This was bad enough, but worse still, all

PROBABLY NOT MOORE.
Sheriff Getchell Tails to Find the
Stockton Suspect

STOCKTON, April S.-Sheriff Get
cher and the local officers returned this
afternoon from Roberts and Union is
lands after having searched unsuccess-
fully for the man believed to be Moore,
the murderer. They failed to find him
and what they learned of the suspect
was not encouraging to their theories.
The man applied at one of the brick
yards for work and is said to have re-
turned to Stockton.
The suspect was seen last Sunday in
this city by a citizen who noticed his
close resemblance to the pictures of
the Nevada murderer and called it to
the attention of the police In the
meantime the fellow had disappeared,
but the officers obtained descriptions of
him and found that they tailed with
that of Moore. The latter uses a small
tin ear trumpet, but the individual seen
here had large rubber trumpet.
