cious were at once aroused and di
rected toward his new employe. This
morning Marshall Mogul placed him
under arrest and when searching his
room found a number of cigars, a lot
of smoking and chewing tobacco,
chewing gum and toothpicks.
Neff was asked concerning the find,
but he refused, to talk and accompa
nied the officer to jail, where he is
held pending an investigation.

After a partial consideration of the
charges filed against Capt. Charles
Sinex of the No. 3 hose company, the
Board of Public Works yesterday aft
ernoon announced that the matter had
been finally wound up as a result of
the withdrawal of the charges by Al
bert Bond, a member of the same
company, who two weeks ago filed
them. -
The charges were trivial in char
acter, according to City Attorney
Gardner, and in substance were that
Capt. Sinex had in numerous instanc
es overstepped the time allowed for
meals, and in other instances had ab
sented himself. It was shown, how
ever, that former Chief Parsons had
in every instance given permission to
Capt. Sinex to absent himself and for
this reason no just grounds for this
charge could be made. Both Capt
Sinex and Fireman Bond are valuable
members of the Richmond depart
ment and the differences that existed
between them are not of serious character.
