THE NSOLEgCE OF OFFICE IN NEWARK.

'Bucky" Taylor, Newark policeman, became in
volved himself the other night in a quarrel with
some OF his neighbors, which wound up by ms
arbitrary arrest Uf one Peter Dooan. Mrs. Doolan
followed her husband to the station house to see
what would be done with him. Bucky pounced on
her too, and dragged her before the sergeants III
command. 1t being made known that the
poor woman had lett family OF children at home,
one OF whom was dangerously I'll with scarlet
fever, Sergeant Mcdrum assumed the RESPONSE
bllity ofettlng ncr go on her own parole. Bucky
Is severely ccnsured for his alleged outrageous as
sumption Of authority and it is likely that he Will
nave To answer before the Mayor. The Newark
police force numbers about one hundred and
seventy men, and includes officers good, bad and
very Indifferent. IL is completely under the control
OF the Common Council so far as organization Is
concerned, and hence Is IN "a great measure a mere
asylum Tor small fry politicians too lazy TO do an
honest days work at their trades or callings-the
hangers on of the ward statesmen OF the city. In
consequence OF the constant interference OF Alder
men, the Chief OF Police Is poweress to weed out
the worthless members OF his force. Cases of gross
cowardlce and other conduct unbecoming officers
arc quite numerous. Meanwhile the people are de-
manding that the Police Department nc entirely
lifted out OF the slough OF ward politics. ana then
the chief officers can be held responsible for any
apparent shortcomings.

technical and legal propositions, but Jailed to Sc
cure a favorable decision In the case, and Murphy

1873. MIR. Howe then presented to Governor Dix
powerful array offacts tending to show that Murphy
was not murderer at heart. and had, previous to
