fought the assailants and had received
it's share of cuts in the ARRAY. When
Doering was found unconscious the
morning after the fight the dog was
at his side, bleeding from half dozen
wounds.

Prosecuting Officers.

Chicago. July 3O.-The police rec
ords at the Des PLANES street station,
until recently presided over by Inspec-
tor Edward Mccain, now under in
dictment on charges of bribery and
malfeasance in office, have been seized,
brought to the criminal court building
and impounded by order of Judge
Kersten.
With a large mass of information
already in the hands of States Attor-
ney Wayman concerning the release
after arrest of disorderly women and
other lawbreakers upon the payment

the records will serve to strengthen
the charges against a number of
members of the police department not

West side divekeepers and women
of the street in that section of the city
have told Mr.. Wayman of numerous
instances of releases after arrest upon
the payment of money to the police,
and with the records of the DeSplaines
street station in his possession the
states attorney expects to make out
clear cases against offending police
men.
