Sanford, assistant state superlntondenl of the Anti-Saloon League, at tho Vine street Church of Christ, In which tho Rev. Sir. San ford asserted 'ho had been assaulted nnd knocked down by drunken row dies, tho locnl municipal officers have been seeking with every dili gence to discover what actually hap pened, o There have beon many of those, as mentioned In Tno Hanner Tuesday ev- PnttlfF. Wlin ttn.fn nvnt..lDDil,l n(w doubts and 'convictions that there 'had been such an affair as described by Sir. Sanford.1 They based their belief upon thelrjnablllty from any source to conform the account. Usually something may bo learned through the channel of gossip and conversa tion, though spoken with no purpose of publicity or giving information to tho authorities. Hut in this affair all these mediums have failed, all who might possibly have any knowledge uniting In, declaring they know noth ing of it. What has been learned was recited by Slayor Kelgley Wednesday. Ho was told Tuesday evening by a young man who did not wish his name used that he tho young man) had been at tho place on tho public square where the encountor Is said to have taken placo Sunday evening at C:30. Thorn wero present also three others, dos- trlbed as sons of well known and porminent families.

They wero somewhat noisy and talking loudly. As for 'fighting among themselves or making a nnssault upon tho Rov. Sir.

"1 don't need this Job," dramatical ly exclaimed Slayor Kelgley, "and I don't pmpnso to have a newspaper ennnut me with operating a gam bling Joint and running alter other women," tontliiued tho mayor. Th'iu the Investigation started. When pinned down by Sluyor Kolg ley, Patrolman French denied making tho stiitpnient to a newspnpor that "a man was fined $ , for (ntpxlcation sometime during August and tho'caso was not registered nt all." A'.TJhn denial was made by Patrolman French before all persons present. Chief Parker completely oxonciatod Slayor Kelgley of tho chnrgo that the mayor peimltted gambling at tho Winner hotel.
