BRIGGS ANSWERS DUNN'S PLEA
south Omaha Chief of Police Denies
Several of the Deputy County
Attorneys AVerments.

John Briggs, chief Of police of South
Omaha, has made his answer and return to
the writ OF mandamus asked by George w.
Shields, county attorney, who had COM
planned that Briggs has not been sufficiently
Vigilant In pursuit of gamblers nor fur
nished him with evidence on which to
prosecute.
In the answer Briggs admits that It is
his duty to arrest, with a warrant, anyone
properly charged with an offense before a
magistrate having jurisdiction of the Of
tense. but denies that 1t is his duty to ar
rest without a warrant any person whom
he has good reason to believe guilty of vio-
lating a state law or city ordinance, ex-
cept when such offense is a felony. He de-
MES that 1t is his duty to furnish the
Shields-Dunn vigilantes evidence, but states
that he is and always has been
willing to tell them whatever he
could. He AYERS that one of the deputies
once complained to him Of suspected gam
bling. but never went farther in the matter.
He will, he af1rms, arrest any whom he
hnds violating the gambling laws in South
Omaha, but as yet has found none so occu-
pied. nor has there been complaint filed with
him by any of the South omahs people.
The writ. he insists, has no force when
directed to him, as he is but the ap-
pointee of the mayor, subject to removal
at any time and without power either to
appoint or discharge any OF the men on his
force. but merely to assign them to their
beats and superintend their work.

ment for the concert grounds. F. w. Clark

served seats, 300 fewer than last year,
