ing statement:
"The indictment and arrest Of Flood
and O'Brien is the greatest outrage
ever perpetrated. They were exon
Grated by the first grand jury that
heard the facts and they were &C
Quilted at Police Headquarters on tina
evidence. Now the old evidence is re-
newed and made part of the attack
on the Police Department.
The body of the Gushing boy was
found $50 feet from where the police
men were on the roof, and this could
not be otherwise than an accident, I'M
less the shot was fired by some one
