The case against David Brumley.
proprietor of saloon on Ft. Wayne

been continued until next week.

Through newspapers favorable to
the police the judges of the super
ior court have made the announce
ment that there will be no grand
jury to investigate police corruption
or other forms of official derelec-
ton, because of the "insufficiency
OF the evidence"
When labor sought to make an
appeal to the judges for a grand
jury 1t was told that its efforts We're
in vain; that the judges would
never consent to such an investiga-
tion for fear that il might be too
far reaching in its scope.
One of the judges who heard the
application for the grand iuhy is the
father In law of IA police officer
against whom a woman has filed
charges 1t was hardly to be- ex-
pected that this Judge would con
sent TO an investigation involving a
member of his own family.
Another of the judges is a partic,
ular friend of the prosecuting attor-
ney's office, and il was hardly TO be
expected that he would vote To ac
code to labors demands. especially
when part of lhis demand consisted
of the appointment OF special
prosecutor to handle the grand jury

HOW The POLICE PROSECUTED
ANOTHER YOUNG GIRL HERE

In the case of Sadie Mclaughlin,
a young girl recently released from
the county Jail after serving SEN
tence for petit larceny, the power
of the police to imprison and take
away the liberties Of persons that
refuse to do their bidding or who
may incur their i'll will is shown.
The Mclaughlin girls story, as
told to The Press, is but another
narrative of the girl who has taken
a misstep. and the cold, relentless
and merciless manner in which the
police work to secure her convic-
tion and entire degradation. II she
refuses TO do as they tell her,
There is nothing in the case of
the Mclaughlin girl that has the
ring of humanity, kindness or love
for those in trouble, with whom q
little help or friendly advice would
do a world of good. With the av
eraee police head these are forgot
ten traits, and in their stead has
come the desire 10 convict, con
denim and place the prisoner be
hind the bars.

1t was the Mclaughlin girls first
offense SO her friends say. She is
% years of age, She was charged
with participation in the robbery
OF a man, when the police knew
positively that she had no hand in
it. Chief of Detectives Martin
Burns told the girl Now We know
you did not do this, but what we
want is for you to come out and
tell who did do il, and we will let
you so.
After numerous "sweatings' no
information desired by the police
could be secured from the girl, and
then began the effort to convict hen
of grand larceny. On the stand
Chief OF Detectives Burns testified
under oath that he had Intercepted

Bresnahan the credit for the Car

given.
Bresnahan has got together a
team which on paper appears to be
the weak member of the parent

and fighting for games, has them
playing brand of inside baseball

other teams play out the string to

that the only note sent out by the

The result is they won seven
