Beatty, the city executive board last night by a vote of 11 to 1 dismissed the com plaint. In connection with the com plaint, "which involved the disposition of unidentified property, a committee consisting of Messrs. Garibaldi, Mur phy and Davis, was appointed by Mayor Bland to draft a set of rules governing the disposition of unidenti fied property at the police station. rne neanng lasted from hair-past eight to half-past ten. Twelve or fourteen witnesses were examin ed. Mr. Beatty was represent ed by Mr. Jake Newell. Rec order D. B. Smith appeared for Chief Chris-te'nbury, not as a paid attorney, as he expained, but merely as a friend of the chief's. The complainant stated that he had been informed on the 16th of January by Ctyde , Earnhardt, son of Police man Earnhardt, who was employed at Mr Beatty's store, that Jack Christen bury, son of the chief, was riding Mr. Beatty's wheel which had been stol en on January 2nd. He stated that as soon as he miss-ed the wheel he 'phon ed a description of it to the police station, where some one took down the description. When he learned that the wrheel was at ,the Christenbury home he took Clyde Earnhardt with him and went to the chief's home, where he saw aJck and stated to him that he had heard Jack had a wheel which cor responded with the one that he (Bea ty) had lost. He got the wheel, but, according to Jack .Christenbury, used some pretty rough language in the hearing of Mrs. Chris-ten bury, her little daughter and other members of the family. He also, according to Jack Christenbury's testimony, was for tak ing the wheel by force, Jack stating that Beaty took hold of the wheel while Jack still held it, and said he'd be d if he wasn't going to have the wheel anyway. Jack told him that he couldn't get the wheel until he had seen the chief about it. Jack let him have the wheel and he came on by the police station where, he said, he found the chief in a very bad humor. The chief admitted that he as not in the best of humor, but that it was because his- wife had 'phoned him, af ter eBaty left the house, that a man had been there after a wheel and had used some very bad language. Mrs. Christenbury had told Jack to let Beaty have the wheel. - Mr. Beatty stated that the chief had him cited to appear at court next morning to answer a charge of profan ity and disorderly conducL He alleged also that the- chief started back to his office with the wheel even after he had volunteered to swear positively it was his-. He told the chief, he ad mitted, that he intended to have that wheel before he went home. He then went to Mr. Barnes' bicycle shop, where he had purchased the wheel and got the number. Then he came back and identified the wheel by number, whereupon the chief gave him the wheel. Rr.ord Was Lost. The evidence, after examination of Officers W. M. Earnhardt, W. a. xseai, rnv "npsk-Sprareant J. M. Scullion, Night Desk-Sergeant T. M. Black and others, was that the message aDoui the stolen wheel was received and the description duly recorded, as alleged by Mr. Beaty, but it was lost and no transcription of it ever made to the lost property ledger, as the custom is. Officers Earnhardt, Neal and others were sitting in the night desk ser geant's office when the 'phone rang In the message and' the description of the stolen wheel. Some one oi those pres et according to regular rule and laid ent took the description down on a tick it tho KPrErpant.'s desk. Messrs. Earnhardt and Neal made note of the tinmW onr) ripsrrintion of the wrheel in their ,own memorandum books and were to look forit. Mr. weai remem bered seeing the7 descriptive ticket on th eprs'pant'S' desk. Night Desk-Sergeant Black, who is also night .turnkey said tnat ire mientiv hp was so busy attending the fires- and attending to other routine duties that officers who nappenea w in th rnnm sometimes answered the' 'phone. Sergeant Black had no recollection of having receiveu a u- scription of the Beatty wneei. r.hf I nand Wheel to His Son.; 1 Chief, Christenbury stated that he told his son one evening that ne couia vot tn tiifl nnlrlpntlfied property room and get a wheel to ride while he was delivering groceries ior mi. W- H. Hall, -but that' he told his son to take care of it and bring It back when he got through with it He didn't know what kind of a wheel the -n.T. Tk T Qtritth stated that , newiuci x. u. at the beginning of the hearing inai he appeared as a friend or, unsi Christenbury and not as a pa . tnrnaT unri that since the chief is the executive officer of his court any nri,nr fnn th nriHfa department was a reflection of interest tohlm. He stated for the Information oi m ,nn nnnrri that, thp bolice rec ords were -admirably kept better kept in v fact, than they ever were uu , K tViot it uroa inevitable that a Slip UUL lUM. , V oTofom -nrniilri occur OHC6 W a while, as it would Inevitably occur in the best" regulated estaDiisnnreuw a thPTL He further said that he - didn't think the chief ought to allow even unidentiea prop erty taken out of the station for tem nn.n.r iioa huf that the executive JfUIOlJ VJ, " " . board had never made wyniww govern the disposal of uniaenuueu property and that ever since there had been bicycles there had always been on hand a number of wheels at the police station and that they had frequently been made use oi m nntr r-nlla and thp 111 Af tha rioA of th inn haring the board agreed that there should be more explicit directions lor tne gov ernintr of imidentffiflfl property and the committee, named above,- was directed to orart these ruies.
