in connection with an alleged attempt
to protect a disorderly house in the
400 block on Jackson street. Patrolmen
Cecil S. Bowman and F. H. Whaling,
who made reports in the usual man
ner to the effect that the woman
claimed to have paid Browning and
| BoWe $25 for protection for two weeks,
We're suspended for three days because
the woman afterward denied having
made such a payment.
The affair came to light through the
efforts of Patrolman Bowman, who
recently became a member of the police
department, to prevent the opening of
disordely houses within his district,
which embraces Jackson street and
other streets in the Japanese and Chi
nese section. The new officer. while
patrolling his beat, says he noticed a
number of persons entering a house in
the 400 block on Jackson street He
watched the place for some time, and
then investigated and found that it
was disorderly house conducted by
a French woman.

the captain in command at central
station, and Patrolmen Browning and

purity squad is to keep the city clear
of women of the lower world, were de-
tailed to make an investigation and to
close the place.
One Woman Arrested
According to police records. the two
members of the purity squad visited
the place and arrested one woman.
The accused deposited bail for her APP
pearance in police court. but failed to
be in court when her name was called.
She evidently learned that a bench
warrant was issued for her arrest and
left the city, presumably for San Fran
cisco.
After the arrest of the woman PATROL
man Bowman, thinking that the house
would be closed permanently, paid little
attention to the place. Later he de-
cided to see If the place really was
closed and, after making an investi-
CATION. found that 1t was running wide
open.
He entered the house and asked the
woman in charge why she had not
closed up the house. She is alleged to
have replied that she paid S25 to the
police and was told she would be al
lowed To conduct the place for two
weeks. Bowman again questioned the
