WERNER IS FOUND
GUILTY BY {. D..
POLICE BOARD
Trial Showed P. B. A. Was Not
Behind Charges Against
Cop.

Policeman Rudolph Werner, of East
Orange, was fined two days pay by
the police board last night, having been
found guilty of falling to properly patrel
his post between / and 2:45 o'clock on
the morning of January %, and falling
to answer Acting Roundsman John
Macdonald's calls. He denied both
charges. His case attracted much at
t~ention, as It had been rumored that
| Werner was to be BROKE" if found
guilty.
Stories have been circulated that the
p. B. A. was after Werner hard, but
Macdonald, who is a member of that
organization, did not show much antag-
onistic spirit in t~estifying against Wer-
ner, against whom he made the charge.
He said it might have been impossiblea
for an officer to hear the whistle when
a milk wagon ratified by.
Members of the p. B. A. are loud in
their denunciation of the rumor. 1t is
also whispered about headquarters that
roundsmen had long searches for two
other patrolmen, neither of whom had
to face the board on charges, although
reported.
Roundsman Macdonald said he looked
for Werner an hour, and blew his whis-s
tie fourteen times, after traversing the
greater part of his post, and then tele-
phoned to headquarters for Sergeant
Timothy Canniff to help in the search.
The latter rode q wheel around consid-
cradle of the long post, he said, but
could not find Werner. Neither officer
blew their whistle after the phone mes
g 80
In his own defense Werner testified
he had not left his post the morning
in question. He admitted hearing d
roundsman's whistle sound, but thought
it was a call to a patrolman on another
post. He and Roundsman Macdonald
met near a signal box at 2:25 o'clock.
Where did you duck to?" Commits
sioner Sharp asked Werner. d
1T am not in the habit of 'ducking,'
answered Werner. II never duck any
body" f
1t developed during the talk that
both men were very close to each other
during the search. There was moro
amusement when Commissioner Sharp
asked If one rap of a club was not a
call for help. Werner told him three
raps were necessary. After a long de-
liberation Werner was found guilty.
The commissioners denied hearing or
any plot to break" him.
During the trial Mr.. Sharp caused
q stir when he made the statement that
private watchmen in the Doddtown
district seem to car considerably for
the policemen, after Werner said q
private Waterman n another police
man had told lin they did not shear
all the whistling the morning in ques-
ton.
