! CHICAGO. Autf. 23. Arrest of several police was forecast today in the investi

gation which States Attorney Hoyne is making of tho police department following his charges Saturday that tlv; rrcent race riots were due to cheap grafting s.nd potty politics. One policeman. KJward Mitchell, is in jail, charged with having accepted $S0(1 of a "slush" fund raised by negroes of the "black beif for the prosecution of negroes enCaged in the rioting. Tho arrest of Mitchell followed a confession from "Cash" Harris, keeper of a notorious South Side gambling bouso. who. according to Hone, confessed that he was lead r of a gang of negroes who had organised for a massacre of whites on July 4. Harris decl.-j-cd. Hoync said, that Mitchell, who was 5:jRnod In plain

I clothes to arrest negro rioters. V.d not

only taken Cie 5SO0 for himself, but had acted as 'go-between" between the negroes and other policemen in arranging to buy off arrest of negroes implicated in the rioting. Tn the wholesale raids of Saturday and yesterday. Hoyne declares, sufficient evidence was found to confirm the story of Harris that a massacre of whites had been planned. 1-arge supplies of arms and ammunition, much of it smuggled to Chicago by Pullman porters. it is charged, were found in the fifty or more house-; ruiri cafes raided. ,
