the Dickinson Drug Co. Both the sergeant and Tierney walked away According to answers of the witness to the Commissioners, Tierney ap- peared to be perfectly sober, and his breath did not smell of liquor.
 No Smell of Liquor.
 Commissioner Jackson asked the witness If he was close enough to Tierney to detect a smell of liquor, and the witness said he was, but did not. The witness also said that at no time during Saturday night or Sunday morning would he say that Tierney showed any signs of having been drinking. Commissioner Lange asked the witness if he smelled any odor from Tierney's breath, and the witness answered that he had not.

During lunch hour at the station, Po- liceman Massey said he played cards, while Tierney, who does not play. sat nearby. At 3:55 o'clock he met Tier ney again, and the latter told of hav- ing been brought in by the sergeant. He was crying at the time. The wit ness said he was very close to Tier ney, and could detect no odor of liquor. He was unable to testify that Tierney had not had drink. The witness said that it occasioned him much surprise when he saw Tierney in civilian clothes.
 Says Tierncy Was All Right.
 Chief Hart then said that he was awakened at an early hour by the telephone. When he answered he found that it was Tierney who was talking. The policeman told him of the Ellinger episode. also stating that he had beer to Hart's home on two occasions during the morning, but was unable to gain admittance.

appearance, but other than that he was not in the condition claimed. Commissioner Jackson then called upon Sergeant Ellinger to offer an exclamation why it was that 60 many of the policemen had preferred tes- timony which was directly contradic- tory to that he presented in substan- tiating his charges against Tierney.
 Brotherhood of Cops.
 Ellinger said he believed that it was a case that the men did not wish to see a brother policeman get into trouble He said despite all the tes- timony that the policemen had offer ed in the defense of Tierney, the charges as he brought them were true. and he didn't care if all the po- licemen in the department spoke to the contrary The sergeant said that he did not at any time claim that Tierney was drunk, but he did claim that he was under the influence of liauor, and rather than take the re- sponsbility for his condition while on duty, he turned him into the station.
 Poor Judgment.
  finger if in his opinion a man that took a drink was under the influence of liouor, to which the sergeant made the reply, that he was. It was the of Sergeant Ellinger that Tierney was under the influence of liquor, and that he feared he would get worse if allowed to remain on duty.
 Tabs on Ticrney
 It was also the statement of Ser geant Ellinger that he has been look ng Tierney over pretty closely of ate During his remarks regarding he accused policeman. Ellinger told 1 of the policeman being under the in- 1uence of liquor on a previous occa- sion, and that since that time an in- 3pection of the men is held before | hey go on duty.
 Do you pay especial attention to Policeman Tierney?" asked Commis- ioner Jackson.
New Britain herald., 1922-08-29

T certainly do," said the sergeant 1 Sergent Ellinger said that a shor time ago, he called the attention o1 Sergeant George J. Kelly to Tierney's condition as he was going on duty one morning According to Ellinger, Ser. geant Kelly had talk with Tierney reminding him that he was working on his last chance.
 The sergeant was asked by Com- missioner Jackson why 1t was that two civilian residents of the city had come in and offered testimony that favored the accused policeman. Ell inger said he supposed it was because they did not observe him very closely, and may have overlooked it.
 Not After Tielney
 Ellinser said that on past occasions, reports have been circulated that men were drinking. after the actual drink irg had occurred. He told the com missioners that he did not desire to get Tierney 'in bad"
 Juggling The Truth?
 It was the claim of Sergeant Ellin- ger, in answer to a question of Com missioner Jacksons that the other po- licemen, had they taken pains, would have noticed the condition of Tierney last Sunday morning Will you in dicate that they are juggling the truth. He also said that some of the this, Ellinger again repeated his as- sertion that policemen do not care to testify against a brother policeman who Is in trouble.
 Jackson Wanted Action
 After the hearing had been brought to a close, the question as to whether or not it should be laid over, was dis cussed briefly Commissioner Jack son said that it should be settled at once in justice to the policeman. If he was to be cleared of the charges, 1t was only right to give him the op- portunity to return to work, and if found guilty, the dismissal action should be taken. Chairman Dunn spoke of the naming of committee on rules and discipline, which would
