CABANISS PAYS NO HEED
TO PROTEST OF HUTTON

Warrant Opened and Coin Therein
Handed to Owner.


Police Judge Cabaniss. the Police
Commissioners, Chief Whitman and
others gathered in the property clerk S
office yesterday afternoon when the
three safes taken from $40 Washing
ton street on a search warrant at the
time of the raid by Commissioner
Hutton were to be opened. Judge Ca
baniss having decided that they
should be returned to Chin Kim You,
the owner
Hutton was the last one to arrive
and he said that so far as he was con-
cerned he was satisfied the proceeding
was Illegal and void and that he
would not be party to anything that
was done He thought the court had
no jurisdiction to make such an order.
A proper proceeding in proper
court should be brought. After ex-
pressing his opinion he walked out.
He was followed by the other Com
missioners and the Chief and after a
consultation they returned without
Hutton.
Commissioner Howell entered a for
NAL protest against the safes being
opened or taken out of the custody of
the pOllCc, anu OIluh-
house said they would not be held re-
sponsible if the money in the safes
were handed to the wrong man.
The Judge said the Commissioners
were simply present out OF courtesy
and no responsibility would attach to
them. He then ordered the safes
opened. The money was handed to
Chin Kim You and the papers to the
Commissioners to be used in their in
vestigation, as agreed to by Attorney
Collins.
