4 Replying to Dean Rogers, Mr.. Moyle
said that he had heard two officers tes-
tifv in case that they had been de-
tailed in plain clothes TO watch saloons.
In his testimony Attorney Wallace S.
Moyle made reference yesterday af-
ternoon to possible "whitewash' of
the police department by the investi-
eating committee composed Of Dean
Henry Wade Rogers. Hon. George B.
Martin and Judge Lynde Harrison.
This statement had been made before
but this time the commission was
greatly aroused by It.
The statement of Attorney Moyle
brought out the most dramatic scene n
the whole series of sessions so far held. /
i Dean Rogers administered singing
rebuke to Mr. Moyle and said: ANY In
timation to the effect that we sit here
to 'whitewash is as great an insult as
can be possible offered us, and for one
resent it, se
wait until we have decided before you
talk Of whitewash.'' IA

position caucus tickets. Witness then
asked him why he was opposed to him.
Witness had no special feeling against
the Ullmans. Some of them he re-
j spected, although others had used po-
litical methods which he did not think
was exactly fair.
When asked by Attorney Wolfe If he
would not have objected to the police
men If they had been working for his
side, he said that he did not know.

Led to cross examine Mr.. Moyle. In,
reply to questions witness stated that
he was not holding any political office,
but that If he was police commits
sioner, he should not consider it his
place to use the office for political pur-
poses. Mr.. Wolfe then asked witness
lie he belonged to the so-called city
court crowd. He replied that he did
not belong to any crowd. Witness was
friendly with the city court officials,
4 and would like to see them remain in
/ office. He had no knowledge Of any Of
fetal brides being used to promote po-

The next witness called was officer
Joseph Cohane. Witness was present
at hearing when young Duke testified.
He and Officer Eagan saw young Duke
run out Of a place on Blatchley ave-
nue. near State street. AS he appeared
| to be watching the officers they ques-
toned him and he told several con-
fiicting stories about who he was, where
he came from. etc. He said he had
two companions with him who had
| gone back to buy some whiskey, they
having finished one-half pint a short
while before. While talking to young
| Duke two men came along, who, young
Duke stated, were his companions. The
officers questioned the men as to what
they had been doing. They acknowl-
| edged having some whiskey, but they
absolutely refused to state where or
how they got It,
/ Witness stated that as neither of the
men showed any signs OF intoxication,
the officers had no chance to arrest
them. The boy on his own story war
ranted his arrest on a charge Of va
| grancy. officers had done all that was
possible to find out where the liquor
i was purchased. but without any sue
cess at that time.
Witness had changed his politics
from democratic to republican at the
time that Mayor Studley was first
nominated FOR Office. Did it because
he thought the republican ticket was a
good one. He did not make the change
for the purpose of getting appointed
a regular officer. He had lived
| in the Eleventh ward all his life
and therefore he had large number of
friends living there. Witness had been
looking for liquor violations on his
beat but had failed to find any vio-
lations.
