HOW IT is RAIsED-How 1T is usED-uow MUCH
THERE rs OF IT.
Enquiries have come TO TIE STAR In regard to
the amount and disposition OF what Is known as
the policeman's fund; and why only SIS allowed
from that fund for the benefit OF the family OF
the murdered policeman, Fowler THE STAR re-
porters CLEAN the following particulars in regard
to this fund:
The members OF the police force are subject to
the payment of fines and penalties under the rules
or the force; and whenever they are paid money as
reward they are required to pay ft over TO the
DISTRICT and the District Commissioners as the
successors OF the police board, decide as to the
amount they may retain. The proceeds from fines
and rewards are paid into a fund known as the
polceman's fund, but there has been In times past
but little Information given OF its condition ft Ia
entirely under the control OF the District Commis-
sioners, as successors OF the police board.
Mnen the iuna was turned over TO the present
treasurer, In 1879, the amount accumulated was
$4,000, all In registered 365 bonds The amount at
the present time Is $22 800 In the same bonds ana
$3.50 In cash Last year the fund was increased $500
by lnI crest and 81 500 by fines &c.
the bonds are registered In favor OF the treasurer
OF the pocemans fund, and no portion OF IL can be
drawn except for funeral expenses or deceased
members, when SIS In each case is paid TO the
widow, and the expense OF advertising for the new
uniforms for the police twice a year. When the
accumulat1ons OF fines &C, amount to $780, new
bonds is accumulating and added yearly TO swell
the total amount.
There used TO be fnuendoes thrown out about
tunketing this fund but there is nothing at all
indicating any such disposition OF the money and
the books show every dollar OF receipts and ex-
pendltureS from the beginning, and that tt is
report, recommends the fund viii not likely de-
crease In future that some provision be made from
IL for aiding disabled members OF the force These
lines and balances from rewards have OF late years
been pa1d TO the property clerk, who turns the
money over to the treasurer or the fund, aud
through him 1t goes on deposit in the Treasury.
