TRIED ON BROUGHTON CHARGES
Chief Westbrook Found Guilty of Two
of the Seven Charges-Dr. Brough-
ton Did Not Have Afidavits, as He
Claimed to Have.

Alany, Ga, September 27.-The trial
of Chief of Police Westbrook on the
sensational charges first preferred by
Rev. B%roughton of Atlanta in a ser
mon here three months ago and follow
ing which the preacher was cowhided
by the chief, was concluded late this
afternoon.
OF the seven specific charges PREFER
ed the chief is found guilty of two viz,
drinking while on duty, and in uniform:
visiting bar rooms while on duty and
lettering in such places.
The commission imposed a fine of S25
for each of these o~ffenSeS and exhoner-
ated him on all other charges. OF the
charge of assault on the minister the
commissioners said: .
I'VE find Chief Westbrook guilty of
This charge, but in our opinion the pecu-
liar circumstances justified him as a
man in pursuing the course he did"
The verdict is regarded by West
brooks friends as an exoneration, as
he was not found guilty of either Of the
most serious charges. A feature of the
trial was development of the fact that
DIR. Broughton did not have affidavits
to sustain his charges as he claimed to
have at the time he made his pulpit
attack.
