CHIEF tom" IRWIN
FREED OF CHARGES
Allegation Dismissed Following a
Long Hearing.
BOARD VOTED FOUR TO THREE.
Baltimore City Officer Tells Of Having
Bought Beer at Jack" Floods
on Sunday.

By a vote of 4 TO 3, the Anne
Arundel County Commissioners. fol-
lowing a lengthy hearing, yesterday
afternoon dismissed the charges pre-
ferred against Police Chief Thomas
w. Irwin, of Brooklyn and Curtis
Bay, by DR.. w. w. Davis, superin-
tendent of the Lords Day Alliance,
and Rev. W. s. Hanks, of Brooklyn.
The charges were based upon I'M
becoming conduct, in that the chief
used abusive language Ito DR.. Davis
in cours Of trial before Police JUS
tice Wolfrom recently, and for
failure to perform his duties in sup
pressing alleged sales of liquor on
Sundays at Jack Floods Curtis Bay
Park q;
After hearing that Irwin had no
means of employing special officers,
unknown to Jack" Flood and the
other resort ksepers, to get evidence
of LIQUOR law violations, the COM
plainants withdrew their first charge,
but pressed the one of unohicerlike
conduct.
President Smith and Messrs. Beard
and Pettibone voted to postpone for
further consideration, while Com
missioners Walton, Wa son, Brown
and She pherd Evoted to dismiss the
charges.
That drinks were sold at Flood S
on Sunday was testified to by Patrol
man Moore, of the Western district
of Baltimore city, who said he pur-
chased beer there on Sunday, August
81. Other witnesses at the hearing
included Mrs. Mary Button and Miss
Mamie COrrigan, who were appoint
ed spe cial police women at the in
stance of the United Women of Mary
land, to look into alleged immoral in
fuences surrounding young girls visit
ing resorts in the Fifth district, and
also work in conjunction with the po-
lice force concerning illegal sales of
liquor.
They gave it as their belief that
the law had been violated at Fl)od's
re sort, and other places, bat their
testimony was not convincing.
Throughout the crusade to break up
illegal selling at the resorts, one
thing stands out prominently and
that the resort keepers know the po-
lice officers and the specia; women
officers and watchers apparently are
ever on the alert.
