Patrolmaa Dominick ?. Cassela, at

by Magistrate Charles Z. Simms on
complaint OF Eugene j. Mccarthy, a
storckeeper OF 2434 Second Avenue.
that Cassela had fred four shots at
him from his revolver. Mccarthy was
not wounded
Cassela testified in court that Nc
Carthy had intcrfered and showered
abuse on him while he was arrestinS
four men for dsorderly conduct The
rstrolman admitted he lost his temper.
The four men he arrested were dis
missed when arraigned before Magis-
trate Simms. Cassea swore the men
had been engaged in noisy argument
over prohibition and he thought they
were about to fight.
Mccarthy said he was standing near
the door of the police station when
Cassela came out He spoke of the
arrests, he said. but denied having
abused Cassela or in any way inter
fered with him. The patrollnan de-
manded to know what he was butting
IN for and became excited Without
provocaton. Mccarthy declared, Cas-
sela drew his revolver and fired four
shots at him. none of which took effect.
1t developed in the course of the
hearing that Cassela was off duty and
supposedly on his way home when the
shooting took place. When the shots
were heard reserve officers ran out of
the station house and Patrolman Nc
Gowan placed Mccarthy under arrest
In court Mccarthy swore to a charge
of attempted felonious assault.
There was an evident disinclination
to give information about the shooting
both at the police station and among
Police officers in the courtroom. 1t
wss pointed out by court attaches, how
ever. that greater number OF charges
against police officers for assaults on
civilians have been filed recently than
at any time in the history of the de-
partment except for short period dur
ing the administration of Mayor Gay
nor. Al that time series Of police
olubbings resulted in many dismissals
from the force.
At the present time eight patrolmen
and detectives are under charges of
clubbing, shooting and black lacking
civilians aside from Detective Charles
Tghe, who is accused Of clubbing men,
women and children indscriminately
during raid on an uptown cafe.

THE ANSWERS.
GUY SWALLOW, chief of police
It's all right to have parties and a
good time generally, but when it comes
to destroying property 1 draw the line.
That is a violation of law, and We are
going to arrest everyone we can catch
committing acts of vandalism. We
will have 100 extra men on duty to-
night to preserve order and prevent
property destruction
CONRAD NAGLE, city clerk of
Oakland-"An innocent Halloween
celebration is all right, but there is
nothing gained by the destruction of
property. 1t is wrong and should be
punished. I think the authorities are
right in their stand on this question
o. W. HascaH, boys work secretary
of the Central Y NJ. c. A, Il think it
could be very largely improved upon.
There is too much destruction of prop
erty. The late hours of the Hal
Ioween parties tend to take too much
time away from the students les
sons
f. ]. Buckles, director of manual
arts in the city schools, Il think the
youngsters should have a sane and
safe hilarious good time"
r. D. Palmer, physical director of
the Y. NJ. c. A, Il think there is too
much destruction of property, but boys
will be boys. The boys will have to
be taught when they are destroying
property"
Mrs. La Won Armendariz, of the
office of the city schools, Il think the
way to celebrate Halloween is to have
masquerade parties instead of destroy
ing property"
J. f. FARRELL, editor THE Earth, -
THE only way to enjoy the season
now is to invite the youths of your
neighborhood to raid your yard. That's
a sure way to keep them away"
