The Senate District committee to-day reported
favorably the bill authorizing the Dis

ers with full power to put stop to the robbery

INCREAsE OF THE POLICE FORCE.
The grand jury Of the District have signed
and transmitted to Congress petition asking
that bill be passed to increase the police force.
They say arguments and statistics show the
fnadeQuacy of the present force to patrol the
city, and to give the citizens that projection to
life and property to which they are entitled,
and had the citizens the power to increase said
force at their own free will such augmentation
would have been made In this. We speak of our
own observation and facts that come before us
in our official capacity as grand jurors when we
say our police force Is totally Inadequate. Upon
you gentlemen the responsibility X1ll rest to
give the citizens OF the District Of Columbia
protection. Our city has increased In number
and wealth, but no addition has been made to
our police force since 1866. Immediate and
favorable action is respectfully requested"
