CLEAR SHIRLEY
OF THE CHARGE
Police Commission Also Admonishes
Bodeker Not To Return Money
Captured In Raids.

1t developed yesterday that the police
commission had taken important action
in two matters Monday night.
One of these was the clearing of Ser
geant Thomas Shirley of, violating section
&c of the city code, which rules that
policemen must not talk of the acts of
their superior officer except in the ma
ture of report to headquarters. Shir-
ley it will be recalled was charged with
circulating rumors regarding graft among
certain city officials. 1t was shown that
he had not started the rumors. r. w.
OBryant had declared that Shirley had
told him something was going to drop"
and had mentioned the names of four Of
ficals as grafters. Shirley admitted the
first remark but denied mentioning the
names of any one He was told to be
careful how he talked in the future. Tho
charge against him had been brought BIZ
an alderman.
A charge was made against Chief Bod
eker fer having returned $500. which had
been taken in charge during a gambling
raid, to the owners. The chief showed
that this had been the custom and also
showed letter from the city attorney
advising him that this was the proper
course to pursue. The commissioners told
him that he had acted right, but in
-structed that In future such money be
not returned. The Mayor then took In
charge the money which was found in
the raid made on the rooms of the Biz

be built. From the Song Shoal road 1t
will run in northeasterly direction to
the Democrat and Sayre road. a distance

authorized by the board.

as the Warrior and Sayre, and will con-
meet the two points after which 1t is

JOKE ON CORONER.
Called to Terminal Station to InvestI
gate Death of Child.

Coroner B. l. Brasher is greatly
amused with a Joke which was unin-
tentionally turned upon him yesterday
afternoon and at the same time officials
Of the Terminal station are joking about
the great murder mystery which they
turned up to the authorities.
Much speculation as to the result of
q supposed infanticide was caused among
the officials of the Terminal early yes
terday afternoon by the discovery of a
"gunny SACK containing what was be-
lfeved to be the remains of a child. The
bag was discovered by crowd of boys
shortly after noon in one of the sub
ways leading to the train sheds above.
Their curiosity excited, the boys called
one of the ticket agents, who readily
agreed that the contents Of the bag in
dictated the presence of the remains of a
child, and he rushed to a telephone,
hastily called the coroner and notified
him of the discovery. The coroner an
swered the call promptly and upon ar
irving at the station Owed in the "gunny
sack" to find what? A portion of a
slaughtered sheepl
The sack and its contents are believed
to have been deposited in the subway by
some passing automobilist as Joke, or
perhaps it was all q game of the boys
who made the startling discovery.
