A TINE HONORED SPECIFIC.-The long
and successful career of DR.. WIsHART's S
PINE Tree TAR CORDIAL, as contrasted
with the speedy collapse Of nostrums de-
void of efficacy which have from time to
time been pulled into a brief notoriety dur
ing the twenty odd years that this cele-
brated medicine has been sold, affords a
proof that the American public continues
to repose its confidence in deserving arti-
Giles only. The PINE TREE TAR CORDIAL
has long been recognized as the leading
specific for Consumption, Bronchitis, Dip
liberia, Coughs, Colds, Asthma, and all
other diseases of the breathing organs. 1t
is, moreover, certain, speedy, and safe
botanic remedy for Dyspepsia, Liver Dis
orders, Urinary Troubles, Scrofulous Alice
lions, Gravel Dropsy. Debility Constipa
ton, and Female Complaints. Constantly
accommodating evidence OF an unimpeacha-
BILE character establishes the fact that it
not only entirely eradicates the diseases to
which it is adapted, but also that it's action
is remarkably prompt and thorough. The
crucial test of experience has demonstrated
its reliability in every particular. Sold by

DISCUSSING POLICE TRANSFERS.
TWO LONG SESSIONS OF THE BOARD OF POLICE
wt1uouT pFsvIT.


The Board of Police held secret session OF
nearly three hours yesterday the only apparent result
OF which appeared the minutes IN record OF fine OF
ten days pay against Captain Lcary of the Thlrtieth
Precinct 1t stated yesterday on good authority
that the Board Intended 10 make several important
transfers OF captains and perhaps sergeants
II also known that something Of the recent feeling OF
discord among the commissioners was Shown IN In, tne
committee meeting OF Monday and the length yesier
days meeting, added 20 the unusual retcence OF tne
commissioners led 10 the belief that the session was
not harmonious. 1t is announced as the proDaDe ds-
position OF the present vacancies in the captancies
OF several precincts. that Captain McCu lagh
will be placed in command of the Tenth
hold succeeding McCullaGh in the Seventeenth
while Captain Ryan will probably be sent TO the Ninth
IN place Of Captain Kennedy who Is likely to be sent To
the Thirty fifth Precinct.
Why these changes not made rs expected yeser-
day oanuot be determined but 1t Is rumorcd that the
Board divided the question Of the proposed as
position and that the discussion of this difference or
opinion consumed the time indicated on the
open mln1tes OF the meeting by many asterlsks
For several weeks the transfers made by the Board
have been kept secret This practice Is regarded as
great annoyance by members OF the force not until
the following day. when the superintendent sends no
tces to the officers transferred can any definite inor
nation be obtained
