GOOD Pathfinder this head the Til
bune has an article on the expenses of
the city department of New York, from
which we CLEAN the following statement
of facts:
When the Department was established,
the captains of police were paid 500 per
annum; assistant captains, $6OO-for
which they performed all the duties of
street inspectors, health wardens, fire
wards, and dock masters. These men,
however, were soon thrown off, and the
whole number of men employed was
about eight hundred. Since that period
the number of men has been increased to
1,l50-mor than 40 per cent. The
police department alone, which cost, in
1850, s4o7 900, now costs 1895, 900 per
year, and the whole cast of the city gov
eminent is $1,000,000 per annum! One
half of this sum is expended for the sup
preston of villainies of different kinds,
while the columns of every newspaper
published in that city daily TEEN with
murders, robberies, ring-fghts, atrocious
outrages, &c.
