The JAPANESE DoNATION.--It will be remembered
that some few months since, when the japanese
Embassy was about to leave this country $40 900
was left in the hands of Augustus Belmont Esa. of
New York, for distribution among the police OF the
several cities through which the Embassy had
passed and tarried In the division of the money.
pro rata, the police of the city of Baltimore were
allowed $500. Mr.. Belmont sent his check for that
amount to the Board of Police. The Board deemed
it prudent to refuse the donation, on the pround
that the police had done nothing but their duty.
and it was inconsistent with the rules of the Depart
ment to allow any of the members thereof to accent
any gratuities or rewards except on rare and
extraordinary occasions. MIR. Belmont replied
to the Board, stating that he regretted that
the distribution could not take place. and hoped
that the amount wonld be received by the Board
and placed to the account of some charitable fund
of which the families of the police would receive
the benefit. Mr.. Howard, President of the Board
replied to Mr.. Belmont accepting the $500, to be
set apart fund for the relief and compensation
OF members OF the force injured in the discharge of
their duty, and the families of men or officers killed
whilst in its performance and for extra paw to any
OF them for gallantry and good conduct on extraor
dinary occasions. The creation of this fund has
been provided for by the bill nstituting the force
and the commissioners can accept the money and
appropriate it in the manner named.
