QTTPRI TOn roiDDLeTovpn COULD HEAR COP'S SNORES ACROSS CANAL So Witnesses Swear in Telling of Jones' Alleged Drunkeness at Hearing Derision as to what action the Police Committee will recommend that Steel ton's council take on Councilman Fred Wagenbach's charges against Patrol man Jones was reserved following last evening's public hearing. The commit tee will investigate further before drawing up its recommendation. Officer Jones appeared at last eve ning's meeting with an attorney. A number of his friends pafked the rear of the council chamber and gave the session some of the appearances of a political rally. This impression was strengthened by the presence of so many candidates. Councilman Benja min Capella. Committeeman Albert Sellers and Squire T. V. Gardner, three candidates for Justice of the Peace were present and Joseph Gore, a can- I didate for High Constable held down chair in the rear of the room. Hear Cop's Snores Across Canal The charges against Mr. Jones con sisted of two affidavits presented to council by Mr. Wagenbach at Mon day's meeting. These documents were signed by Benjamin F. Lapp, a special officer for the Pennsylvania I Steel Company, and Steve Pop, watch man at No. 6 watchbox at the Steel Works, and assert that on last Fri day night, or rather early Saturday morning, Patrolman Jones was seen by them In a visibly intoxicated con dition. He staggered across the Mer chant Mill bridge, the affidavits say, stretched himself out on a porch and slept, lights from an automobile, the deponents declare, showed him laying with arms extended and coat open. | His snores the documents say, could be heard across the canal, a distance of about 125 feet. Both Lipp and Pop substantiated their affidavits. In response to questions from Chair man Nelley and Attorney Wickersham who represented Jones. Llpp declared that he made the affidavits at the re quest of Mr. Wagonbach who came to him and asked what he knew about the case. Burgees Has no Hand In It The name of Burgess Fred Wlgfleld who at a former time suspended Jones and recommended his dismissal, was then brought Into the case by both Chairman Xelley and Jones' attorney who sharply questioned Lipp as to whether or not he made the affidavit at the Instigation of the burgess. To all these questions Lipp replied j that he held absolutely no conversa tion with Wlgfleld and had not seen him since the latest Jones' incident. ■ He said he had attempted to get him | on the telephone the nlgnt he declared Jones was drunk. "Well, why did you try to report to I the burgess instead or your own j superior officer," sharply queried i Chairman Xelley after whispering with Mr. Sellers. "Because we have been friends for i twenty years and because I thought | the hurgess should see the condition of his officer," soberly replied Llpp as he looked the police committee chair man straight in the eye. "As a taxpayer and citizen," con tinued Officer Lipp in reptv to a query by Councilman Relsch, "I thought It my duty to Inform Burgess Wigfleld of the conduct of his officers." Try to Break Down Stories The testimony of Llpp was sub-' ■stantlated by Mr. Pop, who Is a cripple ! and walks with a rane. Both men held ' steadfastly to their stories although i Jones' attorney inade repeated efforts | i to break them down. When Patrolman Jones was permit ted to make his defense ne charged that there was evidently a "rrame up" 1 against him. He protested his entire j Innocence of the charges and ex plained that his failure to report be tween 1 and 4 o'clock that night was due to severe cramps In the stomach. | "This testimony of Mr. Lipp and i Steve Pop." declared the officer, "is | absolutely wrong." ! Besides his flat denial of the charges against him. Patrolman Jones offered] to prove his Innocence by showing he was sober at a quarter of eleven Friday night. To do this his attorney 1 called a number of witnesses who testified that they were together at the garage of E. G. Irvln. a whole sale liquor dealer at that hour. Joseph Gore, 129 Adams street, n i former detective, swore he spoke to j Jones about 1 o'clock when the officer went home for lunch. "He was sober! then." Gore declared. Patrolman James Pearson also saw Jones on hts ; lunch hour, he said. He, too, declared ' he was sober. The witnesses at the Irvln garage , Included E. G. Irvln. Charles L. Soul- I lard, a painter, and Lawrence Cham- ! hers, the man who was In the recent automobile accident at Dauphin, where i Harry Erbe lost his life. Most of these witnesses swore Jones came to the garage and asked for Mr. i Irvln and held a long conversation, with him. STFKLTOX PERSONAM Mrs. Fulmer Chapman has gone to York to visit relatives.
