Acting Chief Shows Record
Of Having Arrested
Disturber Suspect.

In answer to the rumor that has
been circulated in the past p hours,
to the effect that P H Phoenix. act
ing chief OF police, was in sympathy
with the rioters on Labor day in FL
PasO in 1916. and under request Of
alderman VIM. T. Griffith. Mr. Phoe-
nix made the following statement. and
offered the police record in question:
That rumor is absolutely untrue
and unfounded. The police record OF
the date that the trouble occurred
September (, 1916, shows that on that
day there were only three arrests
made.
I was then on day at the corner
near the Sheldon hotel as traffic po-
iceman. and I made me only arrest
charging melting a riot. At noon I
arrested Carlos Chipress and charged
him with melting a riot and assault
on an officer. The record speaks the
truth"
