An Italian,- with a most aggressive acpent, called, m to "Truth" office the other day and complained that the police had arrested him and kept him m the" ' watchhouse for some time on a purely groundless suspicion. It appears that certain boys had laid, a complaint that some foreigner had bailed them up < and asked. them most indecent questions", and offered them' money to perform a certain indecent act. The police arrested the Italian on the off-chance, and treated him with very sc.mt courtesy, so he. alleges,' until the boys were produced. One little boy said he was the man, lie thought, but the others said be wasn't, so the Dago wps Jibprntpd. No doubt the police tbou.arlit tbe'v . Irnl their man,, but thpy rho'ilil Ue careful m ] ay i • °: such a nasty charge without sood reason.
