District Supreme Court Dismisses
Prohibition Charge That Place
Is Nuisance.

ODonneI's Sea Food Emporium,
1907 E street, was given a clean bill Of
health yesterday when District Supreme
Court Justice Oscar r. Luhring held
that the Government had failed to slls-
tain the charge that the premises had
become a public nuisance, under the
national prohibition act. The court
ordered the suit for paddock iniunc-
ton dismissed and viii dissolve the
temporary injunction granted last July
against Thomas A. ODonnell, the
proprietor, following charges by United
States Attorney Leo A. Rover and As
gistant United States Attorney Harold
w. circuit that violations of the liquor
law had been committed on the prem
1ses.
In dismissing the paddock proceed
tngs the court said: 1.-The finding Is
that the Government has failed to slls-
tain the allegations of the bill for In
junction; that premises 1907 z street
northwest were not maintained as q
place where intoxicating liquor is man
ufactured, sold, kept, stored or bar
tered in violation of the national pre-
hibition act and therefore was not a
common nuisance within the meaning
of the act"
ODonnell was represented bv Attor-

CUSTER PLEA BASED
ON WALKER Jokes.
Petition Seeking Probe of
Mayor Sent New York Gov
ernor by Civic Group.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, March 12.-Mayor
Walkers "fiippant attitude" and "wise-
cracking" were criticized in q petition
to State authorities as demands for an
investigation of his administration
gathered momentum today,
A petition of the Society for the Pre-
vention of Crime was sent to Gov
Franklin D. Roosevelt and the Legisla-
ture at Albany. Without impugning
the mayors personal integrity, it charged
him with q 'laissez-faire" toward
Official corruption and urged that SAM
uel Seabury be authorized to inaugurate
q sweeping inquiry into the city gov
eminent.
Proof of Intentions.
''We would like to have some proof
by aggressive action that the mayor
really desires clean city," said the pc
tition. I'VE doubt whether the mayor
dares give it to us.
I'VE believe that wiSecracking, the
mere appointment of committees and
the mayors laissez-faire policy must
end In the presence of dastardly con-
ditions already disclosed, a flippant at
titude by such a mayor as We have
should be the subject of investigation 4"
The formation of citizens COM
mittee of 1000 to enlist public support

tives to meeting.

tionS. calling for immediate action were
the New York Board of Trade, the Pres
byterian Union, the United Neighbor-
hood House of New York, Inc; the
Brooklyn branch of the League for Po-
litical Action and the City Affairs Com
mittee.
District Attorney Thomas c. T. Grain
mapped his defense against charges of
nonfeasance, made by the City Club
by asking Samuel Untermeyer to be his
counsel in the impending inquiry by
Commissioner Seabury. Mr.. Inter
meyer, busily engaged in transit litiga-
ton, took the request under Amusement.
Meanwhile Mr.. Seabury's probe of
