attention to the high handed methods

THE Police Department, in their

He always takes sides with the police

Cibson's Dog Rattle for
Soldiers Is Investigated
Broadwayite Explains He Raised
Cash for Delivery TO Woman
and He is Sent to Find Her

District Attorney Swami intcrro-
gated William II. Gibson yesterday
concerning affairs Of the National
League for Disabled and Crippled Sol
diers
The examination of Gibson, who is
said to be known as Billy Gibson at
public dancing places along Broadway,
was made at the request of Mrs. Wen
dell Phillips. She was at Smallwood
Lodge, the home Of Joseph Smallwood,
at Glen Head, L. l., Saturday night,
and said she heard him asking for
money for the soldiers at Fox Hills
Hospital and rafting off dog for
their benefit, obtaining more than 100.
She learned, she said that MI.
Smallwood had been told that the Ma
tional League for Disabled and Grip
pied Soldiers was raising money to
make good deficit of / 800 carried by
the hospital.

attributed to him, saying he did not
know just what way the league con-
tributed to the welfare Of disabled
soldiers, that he merely raised money
and turned it over to Mrs. O. H. P.

Girl Causes His Arrest
Col. d. L. Porter, 20 Years
in Federal Service, Quits
as Internal Revenue Aid

Sam Stanton, seventy eight years old
and for sixty years a sailor, was hit
yesterday by prohibition harder than a
sixty gale ever affected him. De-
tective Henry Fishborn, of the Mercer
Street police station, towed Stanton
into the Jail house on charge of
stealing two large bottles of violet
perfume from the John Wanamaker
store. The old sailor had a fagon of
perfume under each arm and some of it
under his belt, and was singing:
"For twas forty-seven bells by the
Waterbury watch
1t was a stirring ditty and one
sparkling with the swish and swash
Of the foaming sea, but the detective
had duty to perform and did it. No
resistance was offered by Sam when he
was steered into the police slip and
made fast.
1t is true of most sea yarns that a
beautiful woman figures somewhere in
the story. The heroine in this case is
Miss Lena Fortnay, special detective
for the Wanamaker company. She says
she saw Sam enter the store and cruise
about a bit. Then the big bottles of
perfume caught his eye. He stood by
for a few minutes, and then tackled UP
to the counter and slowed a bottle I'M
der each arm, she charges. He then
started out with all sails set. Miss
Fortnay followed him.
His Cargo Easy to Trace
Detective Fishborn had been sum
moned and took up the chase. On q
signal from Miss Fortnay he put Stan
ton under arrest. Stanton had sam
pied the perfume and was aromatically
happy. He gave forth a stimulating
fragrance as we'll as lively burst OF
song.
Stanton was arraigned before Magis-
trate Edgar V. Frothingham The tar
who stands six feet five inches, and is
the picture of health, admitted taking
the bottles from the store He said he
wanted a drink, and the perfume
tempted him.

Lieut.. Hamon'in Hospital Again;
This Time a Bridgeport Puzzle

the most careful attention was lavished
upon him.
Under the ministrations of the ply
sicians and nurses at the North Hud-
son Hospital, he recovered sufficiently
to remember that he was George
Hamon and give the impression that
he was of the Oklahoma Hamon fam
lily. He remembered also fighting in
France and taking part in an offensive
September 25, 1918.
That, he said, was the last he could
remember, and if he didn't manage TO
recall the rest pretty soon he was going
back to France to see if the environ
ment would not help him. He gave the
hospital authorities to understand that
he had notified his father, "a wealthy
oil man in Oklahoma" Of his plight
and that his father was on the way
to Weehawken.
On the day that the oil man was to
arrive the tragic young figure of Lieu
tenant George Hamon faded out of the
picture He was not to be found any
where about the hospital, where he had
the freedom of the grounds. The
wealthy oil man from Oklahoma never
showed up. The Bertillon measure
ments Of George Weiss did, though
and doctors and nurses agreed that
their patient must have been Weiss
