NAVAL MEN HAVE GRIEVANCE.
Recruiting Officers Say Patrolman
Assaulted Them.

August Anderson, Quartermaster. and
Carter NJ. Parker, yeoman. attached to the
United States Naval recruiting station in
S. Louis. told Captain Reynolds OF the
Central District yesterday morning that
they had been assaulted by one of his 20
lcemen without vocation.
The navymen were at the station when
roll was called and were told to pick CUI
the policeman whom they say assaulted
them. They could not find him among the
men. but did pick out Policeman Charles
Stewart. whom they said arrived on the
scene shortly. after they had the trouble
with his brother officer.
Later Captain Reynolds ascertained that
Patrolman John p. Shipp of the Broadway
squad had trouble with two sailors at
Seventh and Market streets after he was
OF duty. Shipp reported sick yesterday
and was not at roll call when Anderson
and Parker were at the station.
The recruiting officers declare that the
policeman struck at Anderson and pulled
his necktie from his collar. They said he
was intoxicated and became angered be-
cause they looked at him.
Captain Reynolds has not completed the
morning. The Captain says Shipp was
placed on the squad because of his reliability
and he does not believe that he was in
toxicated IL 1t was Shipp with whom the
sailors had trouble.
