keepers Should Not Sell
Beer to Minors.

That the police commissioners have

tain Long satisfied him hat Baker had
refused to arrest Henry Lewis. who a

Lewis later gave himself up to the po-
ice and was held to await the result of
Silensky's injuries.

men who were taking him to the county
Jail. Sergeant Harris. going through
cellars. discovered the man, and, after a
long chase, shot him. Gomez died the
following day. The chief, in his recom-
mendation, stated that this should serve
as an example to the entire police de-
partment.
The report of the detective bureau
