STONE STREET DISORDER.
TOIice Chief Has Never Received
Complaint On This Line.

Oh his
Fearing that communication from
a resident of Stone street. given pub
licity in the Morning News yester-
day, might be construed as criti-
cism of his department. the superin-
tendent of police called upon Acting
Mayor Dixon at the City Exchange at
the noon hour and made a statement
with reference to the alleged disorder.
Later the police chief asked that his
protest be given publicity. He stated
to Acting Mayor Dixon that be has
never received complaint of any dis
order on Stone street and that so far
as he has been able to ascertain, or
the records show. no manner of ON
plant from this neighborhood was
lodged at police headquarters even be-
fore ne took charge. If the residents
of the street want it opened they should
adopt some other tactics" said the su-
perintendent. The police department
has nothing to do with this work Per-
sonally, l favor opening the street, if
the cost is not too great.
AT the same time l do object to it
being stated that there is disorder in
the street. If there is none A uni
formed man passes within a few yards
of this street every fifteen minutes. If
there is any trouble of any sort, at any
time, persons living in the neighbor-
hood should have no trouble in finding
an officer. Then, too. the street is very
close to the Central Depot and the
Union Station, and officers are always
on duty at these points. 1t appears
to me that If there is disorder the po-
lice should be notified. l am always
ready and anxious to hear the COM
plants of citizens and will always give
these complaints my personal atten-
ton. AS l have already stated. no
complaint of any nature has been made
to me about conditions on this street,
and under the circumstances 1 am
loath to believe that any such condi-
ton of affairs exists"
