time. We will have to depend upon
enough money to pay his rent 10 avoid
dispossess proceedings.
Fox was baied after a day Of most
strenuous efforts on the part OF the
friends of the System 10 prevent an
Indictment of high police officials on
charges similar TO those brought
against Fox, and to discredit by fair
means or foul the witnesses who have
so far testified as to the alliance ex-
listing between certain police officials
and the vice trust"
District Attorney Whitman learned
last night that the latest move on the
part Of the accused policeman mas been
to obtain an affidavit from Josephine
Palmer, keeper of A disorderly house,
to the effect that Mrs Mary Goodc,
whose story started the present pro-
ccedings. had been guilty Of bringing
in q woman from another state in vio-
lation of the federal white slave act.
The interest Of the System" If APP
parent in this latest move, Tor Jo-
sephino Palmer has been the mistress
Of a police lieutenant, VINO lived
openly with her at her house Of i'll
fame until the present scandal Of the
relations between tho police and dis
orderly houses was revealed
But no federal grand jury would
listen to any such accusations under
the present circumstances, Mr.. Whit
man believes particularly i'm vicv Of
the case Of George 4. Sipp, against
whom unspeakablc charges we're made
by two women At tho instance Of the
police.
A previous effort 10 "framc-up Mrs.
Goode resulted In the Indictment Of two
men for trying 70 bride the janitor OF
the Marlborough apartments, where
MIS-. Goodc lived at one time.
System" Doing It's Miehtlest
But the system" has not been de-
tered by this example from doing its
"mighnest" to save the high police off,

posure.
II Is the belief Of the District Attor-
nev's office that either tomorrow af-
ternoon or early on Tuesday at least
two police inspectors and one police
captain will be indicted on graft charges
similar 10 Fox's, that before the
end Of the week a high civil employe
of the Police Department and three
members Of the force will be indicted
nm a conspiracy count, and that three
r.ryers NAV also find themselves
nleading to indictments for their al
Legged bribing Of Sipp, who received
e. onO 10 fee from the jurisdiction OF
the state.
After these cases are disposed OF by
the grand jury District Attorney Whit
man will present the case of Patrol
man Charles z. Foye to determine II
he has been guilty Of perjury as the
result of the disproven accusations he
made against Henry II. Curran, chair
man Of the aldermanic investigating
committee, at Wednesdays session Of
the committee.
II is believed that il Foyc was
prompted to make these charges be-
, cause of a determination on the part
Of the system 10 "frame-up' Chair
man Curran for his endeayors 10 put
his probe into the heart of the Police
Department, the patrolman may con-
fcss in the event Of an indictment being
found against him.

Of these cases would be presented TO
the grand jury until after the cases

nects the arson cases will not take UP

tire day.

their being tempered with by agents OF

guard. Among these is Mrs. Goode.
