CLOSE TO DEPUTY
IN GRAFT CHASE
_
District Attorney Finds the Trail Revealed by^
Walsh Leads to One of Commissioner's
Immediate Associates.
SWEENEY UNDER SUSPENSION,
Captains Hussey and Thompson Also?They Formerly
Commanded Same Inspection District?Waldo
Tries to Head Off Expose?Slated
for Dismissal. Is Report.
On the heels of the startling confession of Captain Thomas W.
Walsh, obtained by District Attorney Whitman Wednesday night,
Police Commissioner Waldo suspended from the department yes?
terday Inspector Dennis F. Sweeney, the superior officer with whom
Walsh said he divided his graft, and Captains James E. Hussey and
James F. Thompson, each formerly an inspector in the district <
which included Walsh's precinct.
Commissioner V/aldo made what Mr. Whitman looked upon
as a final effort to balk further disclosures when he sent his new
third deputy. Harry W. Newburger, to Walsh's house again yes?
terday afternoon.
Mr. Whitman, himself summoned to Walsh's home for another
conference, found Newburger there, with a stenographer, attempt?
ing to get from Walsh a full story of his accusations, even though
Walsh v/as then under suspension.
Walsh did not want to give his information to the Police De?
partment, and Newburger was finally forced to leave the room when,.
Walsh flatly told him that he believed "his accusations would be
better handled by Mr. Whitman, as District Attorney of the county.
Mr. Whitman admitted that he had feared some such move
from Police Headquarters, and declared that such a play could re?
sult only in giving warning and advance information on the nature
of the charges against them to the officials of the Police Depart-:
ment who would be brought to trial.
At the end of his six-hour conference with Walsh Mr. Whitman'
announced that he was going up step by step, and that the first
step was Sweeney. Hussey and .Thompson, although accused by
Walsh, are not likely to be brought to book by Mr. Whitman im?*i
mediately.
Mr. Whitman learned from Walsh that a deputy commissioner?
was deeply involved with Sweeney, and he believes that he willt
have evidence on which to ask the indictment of that deputy ?com-?
missioner. '
The District Attorney continued his work by another long con-*-;
ference with Walsh, which began at 5 o'clock yesterday afternoon, a?
Walsh's home. No. 1958 Madison avenue.
Mr. Whitman during the day summoned to his office two polic?
officers who have held close relations with Sweeney and Walsh?<?
one a clerical man for the captain, who could corroborate Walsh's*
accusation that he paid 50 per cent of all his graft to the inspector,,
and the other a plainclothes man for Sweeney, who carried thet
$1,000 from Walsh and Sweeney to Fox. in the Tombs. This vros*
the money that was used to try to keep George A. Sipp away froim
the witness chair.
Commissioner Waldo suspended Captain Walsh yesterdays?
after verifying, through District Attorney Whitman, the fact that}
Walsh had confessed.
Mayor Gaynor summoned Mr. Waldo to the City Hall at noon.
They held a rive-minute conversation, and although neither would
say what occasioned the call, the report spread that the Mayor waa \
holding off from dismissing his Police Commissioner only until h*!
could find some strong man who would be willing to take tho job.j
The Curran aldermanic committee was called for a special sea-?
sion to-day. A witness who will give sensational evidence of ne*?.}*?*
graft is expected to testify
The same trail that led Mr. Whitman as far as Insptctoi*
Sweeney's door is expected to carry him along to the- chadr of onej
of the deputy commissioners, who has been involved with the Har?
lem inspector in a "graft split," on which indictments are lookeclj
for next week, when the grand jury reconvenes.
