Police CASE DIsMIssEp.-Judge benson
yesterday announced his decision in the case
of Frank Smith, ex.policeman, against the
Board of Police Commissioners, in which he
sought for writ Of mandate to restore him
to his position as police officer of the per-
manent force of the city, upon the ground that
the Board did not possess the power to re-
move him, and for his pay since his successor
was appointed. The plaintiff was represented
by g. I. Jones, and the Commissioners by
City Attorney Anderson. After reviewing
the law 10 the case, as the Judge held it to
be, he dismissed the action. This case was
brought in a somewhat different form from
that instituted for Inc same purpose year
ago by 2. f. Dolan, but it is understood that
the present decision was anticipated by
plaintiffs counsel. It will be taken to the
Supreme Court, which it is claimed has de-
cided an Oakland case in such manner as to
yield fruits of hope to the plaintiff that he
will eventually win and see himself in one Of
those new navy blue suits, the Police Commits

notwithstanding.
