OF PROPERTY TO JULIAN 10TH.
ANNIE SMITHS RIVAL.

Ex-Justice Charles L. Coulson, Of
Delray. has issued statement ex-
planning his connection with the Annie
Smith case and the resultant police
scandal. Coulson takes credit for
being the tnstigator or the grand jury
pubiican, too" he adds. Just as good
i Republican as any OF those officials
for whom warrants have been Issued
From the statement II would appear
that Coulson's primary reason for
having the police department investi

Tered. with one of bis real estate deals

length the troubles of Julian 10th

meut to Coulson. While Annie, on the
other hand. was permitted TO run un'
molested. Soon after this, Coulson
nays, a man came to him and wanted
him to take steps toward closing
up Annie Smith because hts boy was
freuuenting the place, and warrant
was secured against Annie. She
pleaded guilty In the recorders court
and was fined $50
This was easy for Annie and her
Plea OF guilty prevented the turning
on of the searchlight Of publicity
Coulson was fotisd for the time being
but he was persistent and dug up an
old statute under which Annie could
be sent TO prison for three years, II
oonvicted. Under this statute a com
&laint was made.
"Of course that squeezed Annie toe
hard and she squealed on the officers
An order to save herself" says Coul
SON. The case Is still pending In
police court.
Coulson concludes: "Of course
have been slandered and libeled by
some persons and the papers. but am

dayits. while Annie Is out OF business
some OF the police are looking for law

are out on bail awaiting trial What
