W, Oshaws LY WINDSOR CHIEF MADE THREATS (Continued from page 9) Commission to investigate the reason for the officers being sus- pended," the Alderman testified. "I told the Judge that 1 wasn't par- ticularly interested in having the men under suspension, or that I wanted an investigation of their al- leged intoxicated condition." Woman Testifies That Mr. Roach has deciddd against putting Alderman Curry on the witness stand was indicated just before the sitting closed this even- ing. Instead of Alderman Curry who is the moving spirit behind the probe, supnorting the testimony of Alderman Edwards, Mr. Roach call- ed Mrs. D. Hutchinson. Alderman Curry made a move toward the wit- ness box, but was waved back by counsel for the prosecution, Mrs. Hutchinson said she went to Chief Thompson's office one day during the summer, accompanied by Alder- man Curry, to secure a refund of $1, which she had paid for an im- migration character certificate. "The Chief seemed to be very angry at Mr, Curry," Mrs. Hutchin- son said. "The Chief thumped his desk, saying: ' I was here, Curry, when you started, and I will be here when you finish." " Mrs. Hutchinson further stated that the Chief said he was using the money taken for the character cer- tificates to aid the poor. The Chief said I could get the dol- lar if I.was a poor woman," the wit- ness said. "I did not get it; I am still waiting." Missing police records, which mys- teriously disappeared since 1922, baulked the prosecution in attempt- ing to establish the inefficiency charges against the Chief. The docu- ments in question were asked for in the case of Robert Sager, arrested in 1922 for carrying dangerous weap- one and for possession of narcotic drugs, Witnesses stated it was the most mysterious case they ever heard of. Sager, the Commission was told, boasted that he would be gone before 6 o'clock in the morning fol- lowing his arrest. Whether Sager was released by order of Chief Thompson or some other persons in authority, the witnesses could not gan, Strange Case of Sager -."It was the strangest case I ever heard of," Sergeant Willis Brumpton 'testified. Former Constable Bert McCauley, who was on duty at Police Head- quarters 'at the time of Sager's ar- rest. remembered that he searched Sager, hecause a revolver was found. Inspector M. S. Wigle, at present Actine Chief Constable, went to Po- lice Headquarters to find documents relating to the case, but returned emnty-handed. Mr, Rodd hrought out in cross-ex- amination of Sergeant John Burns, who was krown until a few months ago as '"Windsor's champion raid- er' the statement that reports of all raids were turned over to the Crown. Mr. Roach said he had sum- moned the Crown Attorney, James S. Allan, to testify that the reports were not turned over to him, Sergeant Burns said that persist. ent raiding had put out of business a blind pig operated by Jake McGee, which was located in the Meretsky Building on Ferry Street above the waitin-room of the Hydro-Electric Railway offices. This policy, the Sergeant said, was not so satisfactory in other cases. Just before today's sitting of the Commission Ald. Curry said he had received an anonymous letter, threat- ening to "blow him up." Receipt of this letter followed a statement nf Sergeant J, R. Wilkinson, finger- nrint expert, that some one, whom he believed to he a Detroit gunman, had offered to "bump Curry off." Mr. Roach proposed to again call Wilkinson tn the stand. but it was stated the Sergeant had collansped and had ft» be taken home, suffering from a perveus breakdown, To -- What other measure is there to success except the comfort of the man who wins, it.
