Wash., Feb. 27. (SpeReceiving a bribe is charged
against Michael T. Powers, Inspector of
police, in a complaint issued today by
Prosecuting Attorney Lundin, who declares this to be the result of eight
months of Investigation and the probable beginning of other startling revelations in connection with the police
administration.
Captain Powers was arrested shortly
before 4 o'clock in a. corridor at police
headquarters. The sum of J50 in
marked money three bills and one
gold piece was taken from his pocket
and is held as evidence. The" money
was crumpled in a wad. The accused
police officer asserts that he is the
victim of a "frame-up- "
and says he
found the money on his desk and was
on his way to deposit It as evidence
with the police property clerk when
arrested. Captain Powers gave ball in
the sum of $5000.
Bribery by Gambler Charged.
Prosecuting Attorney Lundin contends that the money taken from Powers was not the $30 which he alleges
figured In a bribe. The specific offense charged is that the Inspector of
police, on February 9, received $30
"with the understanding that his action
would be influenced thereby."
Mr.
Lundin said the alleged bribery was
for protection in the maintenance of a
gambling house. The prosecutor would
not reveal the names of any witnesses
for the state.
The arrest was made by Deputy
Sheriffs Just as Inspector Powers was
entering Chief of Police Beckingham's
office. Powers accompanied the deputies to the Prosecuting Attorney's office, where he conferred with Mr. Lundin about 15 minutes.
"As for an offense on February 9,"
said Captain Powers, in an interview,
"I don't remember the date, or anything
about it. I can't Imagine what they
mean.
Marked Money Suspected.
"I cannot explain definitely how I
got the money they found in mv nocket
but I've got a pretty good suspicion.
Only three men came into my office
during the afternoon. One of them I
suspect to be the fellow who laid this
money on my desk, a fellow named
"VVardall, who has been trying to get
me to help him establish a dancehall at
"Yesler Way and Occidental.
He never
tried to bribe me.
"A short time after he had left I
found this wad of money. I didn't examine it at all. The rule is that we
we find at the station
take everything
into the property-rooand properly
label it. 1 took this money, Intending
'put it in an envelope and file it
'to
away In the cash drawer. Just as I
was in the corridor I was told the chief
wanted me. I then started toward the
chief's office, the wad
of money in
one hand and some routine papers in
the other hand.
Plot Is Alleged.
"Just at this moment Deputy Sheriff
Brewer told me he had a warrant
for
me. In the chief's office he pulled
the money out of my pocket.
"It looked as though I was pushed
out for a mark, that's all.
"I see now that I should have conferred with Mr. Lundin early in his
investigation, because now he's gotten
off on the wrong foot. I often thought
of coming to him and proposing that
we work together in his investigation
of the police department, which I
knew was going on. but his attitude
ailways kept me away."
Powers has been in the department
25 years, serving- from patrolman up
to acting chief and twice as inspector.
He has a splendid record for efficiency
and especially as a detective did he
acquit himself with credit. He possessed a remarkable memory.
Rlae Follows Reduction.
He came to Seattle from San Francisco in 1886 and went to work as an
iron molder. His first police, work was
in the district
known as "Black
Chapel." He was close to Chief
during that officer's administration under Mayor Gill's first term,
but was never involved in any of the
police scandals that rent the department, although he was reduced from
the rank of Inspector to that of cantain
when Mayor Dilling succeeded Gill after
the recall.
When Gill returned to office In 1912
he appointed Austin E. Griffiths Chief
of Police and Powers was appointed
Inspector again, which position he has

today sent to Congress an adverse re

channel from the main ship

Baker's Bay to the docks at Irwaco.

' WASHINGTON,
Feb. 27. President
Wilson today urged upon Congress the
imperative necessity of action at this
session on the bills pending in both
houses to increase the powers of the
Federal Shipping Board to meet extraordinary conditions In time of war
or other National emergency.
In a memorandum prepared for him
by Chairman Denman, of the shipping
board, the President emphasised particularly the importance of enacting
the proposed law authorizing the taking over of ships under construction in
American yards for foreigners. The
diversion of coastwise shipping to the
foreign trade was blamed largely for
the congestion in overland transportation, thereby aiding in causing the rise
in prices of food and other necessaries.
Measures Needed, Regardless of War.
"Even in the absence of actual war,"
the memorandum says, "the measures
before Congress are demanded by obvious needs,, and attention is directed to
the military value of adding to the
American merchant fleet tonnage estimated at between 750,000 and 1,000.000.
"While the relief of congestion due to
the car shortage through the agency of
this new tonnage in the
trade will not be immediately large,"
the memorandum continues, "the rapid
increase in tonnage as. these vessels and
their successors come off the stocks
will be of material assistance to us In
hopes
the not very remote future. Ourmay

contributing so considerably to the
high cost of living in our great cities
may continue for a long period of time.
We may have to invoke other agencies
to lessen our distress, but the Increase
in facilities for overseas carriage demands our instant attention."
Selfish Trndlnc Not Unlawful.
It was pointed out that care had been
taken to cause as little disturbance as
possible to the business of shipyards.
and to the expectations of foreign investments. The representatives' of mil
lions of foreign capital, as well as a
number of the American building com
panies, were said to have approved the
Government's plans.
Chairman Alexander, of the House
committee, stated that he hoped to call
up the shipping amendment In the
House for action this week. No hope
for action in the Senate has been held
