16 THE SUXDAT OREGONIAN; PORTLAND, JUTE 16, 1907. WRITTEN CHARGES AGAINST SLEUTHS Mayor Jakes Action to Make Binding Dismissal of Old Detective Force. FIGHT IN COURT EXPECTED Former Charges Reiterated and Made More Eipliclt, Specific In " stances of Violations of Rules Being Set Forth in Full. Written charges reciting the grounds of their dismissal from the Police De partment were served yesterday upon the fix detectives who were dropped from the sen-Ice' by Mayor Lane. August. 26, lf. The charges were preferred by Mayor Lane through the police committee of the executive board and were for the purpose of making final the dismissal of the old squad which several months ago won a decision in the State Circuit Court on the grounds that the charges pre viously filed against them were not suf ficiently definite to make legal the action of the Mayor and executive board. The member of the old detective force who were discharged are Frank finow, Joe Day. A. G. Vaughn, L. C. Carpenter, Joseph Resing and L. H. Hartman. Charges were not served on Vaughn Rnd Hartman, however, as Vaughn took his case before the Civil Sen-ice Com mission and Hartman dropped the .matter entirely. The charges that have now been filed against them' are very similar to those originally submitted, but are more ex plicit, comprising 20 type-written pages. The ex -detectives were notified by the chairman, Thomas G. Greene, to appear before the police committee of the ex ecutive board Wednesday,' June 26, for trial on the charge. ' When the detectives were originally .discharged by the Mayor and his action confirmed by the board, they were charged with "Incompetence, inefficiency, failure to comply with the rules and regulations of the department and failure to give satisfactory service.' It was also held that tnelr "Monger connection . with the Police Department would be incom patible with good service and against the best Interest of the city. Mr. Vau?hn appealed his case to the Civil Service Commission, which after & trial held the charges sufficient and sus tained by the evidence, and affirmed the action of the executive board and Mayor. Frank Snow filed a petition for a writ of review in the State Circuit Court. On motion to quash. Judge Sears held, in effect, that the charges were Insufficient: Ithat they must be more certain and defi nite, and that the detectives were en titled to a hearing thereon. He held that a formal .trial was necessary before the appointing authority could dismiss. The charges that have now been served .on the detectives are more specific, citing Individual cases of alleged violations of the rules of the department. They areJ signed by Mayor Lane who. after re ferring to the charges of last August? says; "I now repeat the said charges, and in addition thereto have set out spe cific Instances of such Incompetence and violation of rules." 1 ...;It. Is believed that the detectives will make a determined fight to-ejllsprove the charges or to carry the matter into the rourt and again contend that the charges ave not sufficient for dismissal. Tt has bren declared by some that if the de tectives should win their case in court, the city would be liable to them for an amount equal to their salary for all of the time they have been out of the service.
