CHICAGO, April 19-[Special / In
speCtOr BOnfield, in assuming command
of the city detective service, has out
lined a novel policy for himself-novel
in this city at least. He proposes, he
says, to dispense with half of the pres
ent force of detectives and employ the
funds then at his disposal in hiring Sc
cret agents in all the various criminal
grades. These agents will be dropped
the moment their connection with
himself becomes known. With
such a system of paid informers he
hopes make organized lawlessness in
this city, whether of common robbeT
type or anarchistic variety, practical
impossibility.
