goodwiii TO PROBE FREE USE OF MACE BY HEVYPATROLMAfl Charles Murphy Complains Patrolman Ordered Singing Stopped and Then ' Swung Club.,

Charles Murphy, who resides with his wife and brother-in-law, Joseph Graham In the Oaar flats, Main street between Fourth and Fifth streets, today filed a complaint against Policeman Frank Schroeder charging him with an unprovoked assault with his mace on Graham and with pulling his revolver on Mra. Murphy and himself with a threat of shooting them. Mrs. Murphy today was in a state bordering on a nervous collapse. Graham, who is a cripple and said to be afflicted with St. Vitus dance, has a deep cut in his head and weak from the loss of blood. Schroeder says he went to the Murphy flat In response to complaints against the singing of a man and his wife who were calling on the Murphys. Police Chief Goodwin says that he does not know all the details of the case, but says a thorough investigation is to be made. About two months ago Schroeder assaulted an old man with his mace when his victim was pleading with him not to arrest a man who had refused to pay his fare on a 6treet car. Orders Songs Stopped. Murphy said today that last night members of his family and two friends were enjoying themselves in their flat the same as many of their neighbors when Schroeder knocked on the door and informed Mrs. Murphy that the singing would have to cease. He says he finally took a hand in the dispute, telling the officer they were doing nothing they did not have a right to do. Just then, he says, his brother-

ia-law stepped into the hallway from another door and Schroeder instantly felled him with a blow from his mace. Mrs. Murphy, her husband says, attempted to go to her brother's assistance, whereupon the officer drew his gun on her and threatened to shoot both her and Graham if she made another move. Murphy says he then went after the officer who retreated down the stairs, holding the gun on him. On the second floor, he says, a neighbor woman stopped him and told him to be careful because the officer was covering him with his revolver. "I told her Schroeder was too big a coward to shoot me and while I was talking he ran down stairs. I followed him clear to headquarters," added Murphy. Chief Goodwin says a man who has charge of the flats in the Gaar building, whose name Is Brady, had told him that the Murphys had been fro- , quently complained of.

It was stated that when the road was built, Cincinnati capitalists stood ready to supply the machinery and equipment to operate the road.
