new CHARGES
FILED AGAINST
sLEUTH SUTTON
Hearing on Five Counts Will Bt
Held Before City Council
Friday Morning at
9 O'clock.

New charges, containing five counts,
were filed with the city council by
Chief of Police Dunn against Detec-
tive Paul Sutton and were substituted
for the former charges.
The council definitely fixed Thurs.
day morning at 9 o'clock for the hear
ing.
The new charges contain in sub
stance the following specifications
Charges Against Sutton.
That Sutton falsely accused Malo-
ney with conspiracy to blackmaII,
that during 1916 and 1917 he visited
and became an inmate of a disor-
DERBY house at Sl4 aud 5l6 South
Nineteenth street, we'll knowing that
said house was disorderly; that he
knew of law violations at that and
other places and failed to report
same to his superiors or to cause ar
rests for such violations; that he re-
ceived $40 from Ruth Bass and S.
from Dorothy Davis and various sums
of money from other persons in con-
sideration of protection; that on va
rious occasions he advised, demanded
and suggested that other members OF
the police department should not ar
rest or interfere with certain per-
sons who were his friends or who
had paid him for protection, all of
which acts and doings tended to dis
organize the effective working of the
police department.
Commissioners Butler and Kugel
insisted that Sutton should first be
heard on the first charges, which
referred to thee harges brought by
the detective against Maloney in the
Chadron case.
THE city council has no right to
hear these new charges against SUIT
ton, These charges should be tried
and tried now," vigorously announced
Attorney Ben S. Baker
Mayor in Clash.
Mayor Dahlman and Commissioner
Butler engaged in an exchange Of
words, during which the mayor stated
that at the time Maloney was sus-
pended ninety days for the rat"
episode, not one commissioner sug-
gested to dismiss the captain from the
service.
1T was all concocted by four votes
to impose ninety days on Maloney,"
answered Butler.
Attorney Elmer Thomas. for SUIT
ton, said: "The new charges are in
famous and false"

EMPLOYERS FAIL
TO APPEAR BEFORE
STRIKE HEARING.
Business Mems Association Of
fers No Witnesses and Even
Attorney Deserts Media
tion Board Meeting.

The hearing before the state board
Of mediation and investigation OH the
strike situation in Omaha has re-
solved itself into a one-sided affair.
Only the employees are testifying.
The Business Mems association,
which is the organization of employers
concerned in the strike. is not offering
any witnesses and Attorney Francis
A. Brogan for the employers even has
deserted the hearing.
1t is on the advice of Mr.. Brogan
that the employers are refusing to tes-
tity. The attorney advised them a few
days ago that under the provisions of
Injunction now running against both
employers and employed, restrain
ing both sides from agitating, or inter-
fering, they might stand pat and re-
fuse to talk in this hearing. At the
same time he advised them that they
might waive that right If they cared
TO and appear voluntarily to testify
They chose, however, to stand pat and
keep away from the hearing.
Pay Personal Checks.
l.. W. Smith, painter, who former
ly worked for the Drake Realty Con-
struction company, testified that this
company pays 55 cents per hour, the
old scale, in making UP the regular
company pay checks, and that when
ever an employe complains of this
check he can go to the office and re-
ceive the personal check of w. B.
Drake for the difference between the
55-cent scale and the 621s cent scale.

Dutch workmen who were laid off at
the Krupp works on account of the de-
struction of buildings in the recent
French air raid, assert that quarter
of the Essen plant was destroyed. The

of francs and it is said that 100 en-
ployes were killed and hundreds of
others, including forty-five French

A number of workmen underneath

Had the truck plunged from the

FOOD BILL WATTS
RESULT OF STRIFE
IN THE REICHSTAG
Senate Agrees to Cast Vote on
important Measure July 21;
Various Theories as to
Cause for Delay.
(By Associated Press.)

Washington, July 10,-Unanimou;
consent to begin final voting on thu
food control bill and all amendment,
not later than 2:30 o'clock Saturday
afternoon, July 2l, was given in tht
senate late today and the cloture mo
ton filed yesterday was withdrawn.
The agreement was sought by Sen
ator Chamberlain, i'll charge Of The
bill, when it became apparent that the
storm of opposition to the prohibition
and other sections would make pas
sage of the bill within the next few
days impossible. After Thursday
July lo, speeches will be limited to
five and ten minutes.
New Plans Laid.
Plans were laid during the day by
special meetings of the senate agricul.
ture and democratic steering commit.
tee for material revision of the bill to
meet objections.
Senator Chamberlain announced
that he intended keeping the bill con-
stantly before the senate until the
final vote. Opponents, including SEN
ators Lodge, Reed and others, ex-
pressed satisfaction over the length
of time given for further considera-
ton.
Causes Various Conjectures.
Washington, July 10. - Especial
Telegram)-The senator's decision
not to begin voting the food con-
servation bill until July q is variously
construed in legislative circles espe-
cially among house members.
That momentous events are tram
spring in Germany is the general be-
lief in circles best acquainted with
German politics and it is thought that
the wise old owls" of the senate are
advised of these conditions and arc
therefore not disposed to hurry mat
ters along the lines of the food cor
troll bill until the results of the presi-
dents embargo proclamation are de-
finitely known.
Then there is the amendment to
the food control bill giving the presi-
dent the right to purchase distilled
spirits in bond at some upset price to
be fixed for manufacturing plus 10
per cent for profit, that does not sit
lightly on the souls of prohibitionists
for they realize that should millions
of gallons of distilled spirits now in
bond he withdrawn before the law
becomes effective that one of the
supreme sources for raising revenue
would be ,compltely wiped out and
so the prohibitionists look upon the
postponement of the vote upon the
food control bill with intensive
To Give Distillers Timer
There is a third group of lesis-
lators who regard the senate's action
today as a scheme on the part of the
whisky representatives to give the
distillers longer time in which to take
the nearly 300,000,000 of distilled
spirits out of bond at the current tax
of $1.10 per gallon and house it in
storehouses subject to
sale rather that run the
risk $220 per gallon as the food CON
troll bill provided when N passed the
house.
However, the sanest view of the
present situation as to the food coll
troll bill seems to point to an inside
knowledge that tremendous events
are due i'll Germany shortly and
delay of two weeks III legislating on
food control will not be wasted.

fFrom Staff Correspondent
Washington, July 10.-(Special Tele.
gram. m.)-Persistent rumors that Gen
eral George H. Harries of Omaha will
go into the army as high officer OF
the Nebraska troops today followed
the presence of General Harries and
Governor Neville in Washington to-
gether.
They both made visit to various
army departments.
One suggestion was that General
Harries might be chosen colonel of
the Dandy SIXTH" but the general
has the rank of major general in the
National Guard, which title he held at
the time Of his retirement, and if he
accompanies tie Nebraska troops, It IS
more than likely he will be one of the
brigade officers. Governor Neville's
recognized desire to go to the front,
therefore is not thought to clash with
any ambitions that General Harries
may have.
