Police Convention.


ST. LOUIS, Oct. 23.-In the national police con-
vention, this afternoon, report was adopted,
recommending that congress appropriate lands
for industrial schools tor abandoned and desti-
tute youth; also, the report of the detective com
mittee, which recommends that the legislatures
of the various states adopt uniform code of
criminal law, giving full power to officers of one
county to pursue and arrest criminals in any
county in the state, 1t advises detectives through
out the country to cooperate for the purpose of
detecting crime, so that when a felony is com
mitted in one city, immediate notification can
be made to the chief OF police of other cities
and the whereabouts of all criminals and pro-
fessional thieves can be communicated to ali de
tcctives.
The social evil question ELECTED a long discus
sion. The report thereon was finally adopted.
1t declares that the social evil problem, to be
solved practically, must be removed from the ex.
elusive domain of the moralist; that if it can
not be eradicated as fact its evils can be miti-
gated by police surveillance, and IFS victims be
redeemed from the remorse that leads to suicide,
by reconciliation with society, Or by repentance
in many instances, thus ignoring the deadly
policy, which takes no other notice of humanity
than by the infiiCtion of penalty thar knows
no forgiveness; that the legal treatment of the
evil in st. Louis has worked henefcially, and II
is recommended to the serious attention of the
authorities and of the people of the United
States.
Adjourned, to meet at Washington next June.

fully n mile ahead when the Sappho fairly
started. The latter, however, gradually gained
on the English yacht, and passed the South
west Spit buoy at 12;15:12 +. NJ, or IN. 46 sec.
ahead. The Sappho rounded the light-ship at
1 :32 :5S o'clock, and the Lvonia at AS 20
Both boats tackled several times from the light
ship to the Southwest Spit buoy. On the re-
turn, the Sappho still gaining, a freShonng
