Laniour, Winter and Controy, according to Assistant Dis trict Attorney Smith, were wanted to explain an alleged attack upon Leo Halpern, an Informer, now under in dictment, whose, tes'timony led to the indictment of two of the patrolmen new awaiting trial. Halpern, said Mr. Smith, went to the West Thirtieth Street Station last Saturday to get a knife which was taken from him some time ago when he pleaded gulltv in Police Court to a charge of extortion. Trailed by frIU'mau When he left the station house, Mr. Smith said, Halpern went toward Sixth Avenue. He was 'approached by Patrolmen Winter and Confroy.

Halpern said he was searched and allowed to proceed when the otllcers found nothing on him. iialpern was present to tell the. Grand Jury his story. Mr. Smith said he; untied Com missioner Woods, and Lieut. Costigan was detailed to Invention le.

Mr. Smith said that the Dis trict Attorney , believes that a few UfulkaUnen are still engaged in try ing to frighten witnesKoK who desire to testify before the Crand .lury. WmnninrWUiM'i Another witness before the Crand .Inly was Annie Wiener, alias Dora lllack. who, according to tile District Attorney, has operated disorderly houses for the last ten y'ur and has never been convicted, although ar rested many times.

Mr. Smith said he Would present witnesses to the Crand Jury acaiu today. anil that he was confident several white slavery indict nienis would result.
