fact that large percentage OIL

Werner yesterday afternoon, in re-
ferring to the few arrests being made
by the Police Department. The chief
spoke especially about the report
turned in each morning by w. r.
Warriner, night desk clerk at head
quarters.
This report covers the hours from
T at night until o'clock next morn

has been no report offered to the

means that there have been no COM

night. Until midnight last night Mr..
Warriner had made no entry on his
nightly report.

much whisky here as formerly" he
said, "and I am not saying there
