SCIPLE ARRESTED ON COMPLAINT OF NEIGH]
Crackers After Gulls Again
Carl Hutchinson Is
Indicted; Accused
0fLibeling 2 Chiefs

Carl Hutcheson, the young attor-
ney who came out with sensational
charges of vice protection against
the police department, was indicted
for criminal libel on two counts by
the Grand Jury Wednesday.
The two counts include his charges
against Chief of Police Beavers and
Chief of Detectives Lanford.
The Grand Jurys action was in line
with its indictment of Colonel Thorn
as B. Fielder and Chief Lanford last
week on similar charges,
The Grand Jury based its indict-
ment Of Hutcheson on an article ap-
pearing in an afternoon paper on
May 81, in which he accused the po-
lice officials of knowledge of the ex-
istence of vice in Atlanta and their
failure to take steps to wipe 1t out.

Disappeared, ID

George w. Sciple, one of the pro-
prietors of the Sciple Lime and Ce-
ment Company was brought into the
court of Recorder Broyles Wednes-
day afternoon to answer 10 the charge
Of disorderly conduct preferred at
the instance Of persons living In
Ponce DeLeon Avenue. BY agree
ment Of the attorneys, tho case was
postponed until Thursday afternoon.
a pretty young woman, who en-
gagged apartments ten days ago in
Ponce DeLeon Avenue, and gave her
name as Miss Myrtle Gilmer, is in
volved in the case. She has mys-
teriously disappeared since the ac-
ton against Mr.. Sciple was started.
Soiple was served with the copy
Of the charges by Policemen Allen
and Brooks on tho stories told by
William NJ. Bearden. 166 Ponce De-
Leon Avenue; CFaIles T. Turner, 162

1t Is charge by Mr. Bearden that
the young woman in the case engaged
rooms at the residence abou' ten days
ago and that at once Sciple began
visiting there regularly and taking
her out for automobile rides and in
| other ways paying her marked atten-
lions.
His story is that last Thursday
Sciple came to the Bearden home.
apparently installing it for the Hall
residence. He was told that he had
come to the wrong house and went
away, BeardeD says A little later he
returned and again was Informed OF
his mistake, according to Bearden.
The affeir was then reported to the
police.
II is supposed to have been on the
same night that scene occurred in
the home when Sciple is said finally
TO have found his way there and en-
gagged in an alterca ton with young
man who was calling on a y9unE
lady.
The following Monday night, after
Il was learned that the circumstances
had been reported to the police, Sci
pies auto is said to have driven up
to the residence and taken away the
the trunk of Miss Gn:ner A few
minutes later the young woman left
and has not been located by the off,

Grand Jury Lauds
Chiefs Vice Crusade.

The Grand Jury's findings on the
vice situation, as announced at the
close of the session Wednesday aft
ernoon, warmly commended the po-
lice department for it's vice crusade
and advocated a continuance along
the lines that are now being follow
ed by Chief Beavers.
The expected criticisms of certain
features of the police department
work in its connection with the vice
problems were not forthcoming. The
jurors apparently were not able to
verify sufficiently the Il accuse you"
proclamation of Carl Hutchinson, who
openly charged that immoral resorts
were receiving protection and that
Chief Beavers and Chief Lanford
were responsible for the condition.
The other letters and afidavits sub
mitted to the Grand Jury purporting
to show protected vice also were not
of sufficient weight to warrant ac-
ton. The jurors are understood to
have entertained the belief that many
OF the communications were written
for the purpose of discrediting the
police and not actually with a desire
to better conditions.

CHIEF |STOLD
Of TRAFFIC
IN GIRLS
Business Man Gives Names Of
Five Places Of Vice-Says
Police Were Notified.

Chief Of Police Beavers Wednesday
was placed in possession of starting
information of an organized plan for
the ruin of young girls which is said
to have been formed with the con-
nivance of the police and by them
encouraged and protected,
A prominent business man was the
informant. He did not make a gen
eral accusation, but entered into spe-
cific details, giving in every instance
names. streets and street numbers.
The story is the most sensational
brought to the attention of Chief
Beavers in the police scandal which
already has resulted in the suspension
OF eight policemen.
Detectives Put on Case.
The Chief, on receiving the details
OF the alleged plot for the debauching
OF young girls, at once placed de-
tectives on the case with instructions
to verify every charge contained in
the startling communication.
Five places are mentioned by the
business man. Into one of them on q
principal street, almost in the heart
OF the city, It is alleged that two no
torious women daily have decoyed
from ten to twelve girls ranging in
age from u to is years.
The child victims the information
states, after a few minutes are led
through the rear door of this building
into another house, which is described
as "a well-known designation place"
Says He Told Police.
The business man represented to
the Chief that he had made complaint
Of the conditions to the police, but
that, significantly enough, the inmates
Of the house were tipped Off" His
conclusion was that the police them
selves warned those conducting the
place
The Chiefs informant told also the
names of clubs where, he said, police
men and detectives were in the habit
OF obtaining drinks.
Chief Beavers said Wednesday that
the mans story was being thoroughly
investigated and that if it were found
to be true the officers involved would
be suspended and charges fled against
them before the Police Commission,
