The til" tven demanded nvonsy from
the ball player, and with th,. demand

"After tht thut's had ran off, Mrs.

dived In. and with strong, overhand
strokes, made for the three In distress
Klchenberg's grip on the floating planks
r.ad failed before she reached the man's

So close has the graft trail approached Police Headquarters that fire
police inspectors, with an uptown business man as intermediary, haw

accident.
A prominent Republican politician is a member of the law firm.
The police officers,' it is explained, are retaining counsel because they
feel tnat tne lime is approacninjf, when the District-Attorney, with an
accumulation of evidence that has been pouring in from all skies, will
give their names to the press and force them into the open.
When the Aldermanic Committee which is to investigate the matter
of police graft in connection with wide-open gambling and vice condi
