the Bosrd Of Supervisors
In the eagerness Of the Supervisors to head OF tia
new Board they have evidently stultfed themselves.
and their action on this subject, far is nudity IA
respect TO the cbec, they have in view. During they
session on Monday afternoon last they adopted two
resolutions preceded by several "wheresses" the
first of which allows FIVE patrolmen and 10
more" to the Metropolitan Commissioners. Thi.
movement they base on a clause Of the sixth section
of the new act which reads that the police force SHAH
consist of so many police patrolmen a. may b. de-
'termined upon by the Board of Supervisors Of the
=, County of New-York" But a. another and subse-
Quent clause of the same section says that "EHtl
'otherrise proridea for aforesaid he sad quota
"of patrol force for The County Of Ner-Yors and
fer the Comfy Of Kings, shall BE- Of The asnbcr
"of patroimen nor eTisting BY lac iR the Cites Of
Ntc. York and Brooklyn" it looks as il the astu,s
majority of the Board of Supervisors had merely
added FIVE policemen the present number of tbs
force. Thence this resolution OF the Board. The
Superintendent was directed 10 have orders served on
Lieuts Daniel d. Harigan, David L. Files, and
Henry Evans, citing them to appear before the Com
missoners on Friday, at 10 @ to answer &c charge
of characterization.
The Commissioners moved yesterday into their new
office at No IS White street. and will hold their ses-
sons there hereafter The first floor has been appro'
pra,ed TO the Use of the General Superintendent, and
the Commissioner. will establish their Office on the
second floor A. the building is three-story dwell
ing adapted TO modern uses il will be amply suficen'
for the present purpose of the Board.
As the Commissioners have no legal fands TO begin
with, is point Of curiosity with some to know who
advances for current expenses. Ii is sufficient 10 state
that people have been found willing and desirous 70
omen an account with the Board, without holding the
members individually responsible.
