Stanley Jankowski Declares
Uniformed Policemen
Took His Roll of $135.
ASSISTED BY FOUR MEN
Victim, Too Drunk to Protect Him
self, Despoiled of Cash and
Beaten in Lonely Spot.

Stanley Jankowski, STA Luella ave.
nue.. declares he was held up by a uni
formed policeman and four other men
at Eighty-seventh street and South
Chicago avenue last night and robbed
of S135. Jankowski with his brother,
visited Polishtown and had few
drinks early in the evening. Instead
of going directly home he proceeded
to Ninety-hrst street where he says. he
met the policeman. They went into
saloon, the location Of which Jankow-
ski has forgotten, and had about
dozen beers apiece. After drinking for
some time in the saloon, Jankowski
declares he asked the officer to take
him homo, as he had a large sum OF
money on his person.
Victim Displays Large Roll.
He displayed the roll, and the Of
fcer agreed to accompany him. They
were accompanied from the saloon by
four men, one OF whom was a COM
panion of Jankowski the other three
being strangers. The party proceeded
as far as Eighty street and
South Chicago avenue, at which point
Jankowsli declares the policeman and
the other four men assaulted and rob-
bed him, taking his money and leav-
ing him in the ditch.
Case Reported at Station.
Jankowski made his way to the
South Chicago police station and re-
ported his loss and told the story of
the robbery He was locked up for
the night and this morning all the Of
ficers on duty during the night were
lined up in the squad-room and jan
kowslxi made an effort to identify them.
He was unable to point out the police
man who assisted in his despoilment,
however, and two officers from other
stations, who were on detailed duty
last night in South Chicago have been
sent for to see if Jankowski can iden-
tify either one of them.
Police Theory Of Robbery.
Jankowsh was so intoxicated at the
time Of the robbery that his memory
of faces and localities is very hazy.
He presented every appearance OF
hard usage when he came to the sta
tion to report his loss. Great secrecy
is maintained by local police officials
in regard to the affair, and Jankow-
skis failure to identify any officer con-
nected with the local station as his
assailant has induced the theory that
a street car conductor or a man wear
ing a similar uniform may have beer
concerned in the robbery instead of q
policeman.
New Captain VIII Investigate.
The local police station has new
captain in the person of Charles c
Dorman, late in command of the Thir-
ty-flfth street station. Captain James
O"Donneu Storen, who has commanded
the South Chicago station for nearly
two years past, was yesterday sent t
Englewood to replace Captain Edward
Mccain, who will hereafter be il
charge of the Twenty second stree
station, in whose jurisdiction The
largest red light district in the city
IS located. The investigation of the
charges made by Jankowski will de
volve upon Captain Dorman.
