Allentown Strikers
Accuse Police Chief

Allentown, Aug. 27.-A sensation
was sprung at a meeting of city
council when Clarence Mosser, pres
ident of the Central Trades and
Labor Council, accused Chief of
Police Bernhard, Sergeant William
j. Detweiler and several patrolmen
with having accepted bribes from
the employers in the cigarmakers'
strike. Councilman Wheeler, So
cialist, added that the city was again
infested with dissolute women and
blamed the chief for it, and said he
would stand for both charges.
Mosser, who is a candidate for
council had some of the girl strik-
ers on hand, but when they were
questioned gave hearsay evidence
and did not name any officer.
Chief Bernhard, who always at
tends council meetings as sergeant
at arms, was not present. Only a
few minutes before the meeting was
opened he was summoned to Wheel
er's office and directed to complete
some arrangements for the conven-
tion of third class cities. On being
informed he had been accused, Chief
Bernhard gave the lie direct to
Mosser and Wheeler, who are
chums, and declared his belief that
they had schemed to send him away
so he would not be at the council
meeting to defend himself.
