There is something about the British de-

do not mean this in the sense OF iOke pre-
cisely. Nobody ever found any particular
delight in larklng with American, Russian
or French detectives; but all foreigners VINO
have any intercourse at all with the En-
giish detective force, feel this temptation to

The detectives of Berlin are the nearest
approach in stolidity to those Of Lnndo n.
There is really very little cri 20 in the
German empire, on account of the extra
ordinary sentences that are imposed and
the strict military discipline that prevails
throughout the empire, and which has its
highest deveiopment in Berlin. On this &C
count the most experienced aud capable
detectives are taken out of the criminal
service as rapidly as possible, and promoted
to the official department
Their duties consist solely in watching
socialism and guarding eminent Germans
from bombs and dynamite. Bismarck, for
instance, never travels without the protec-
ton OF at least two of the crack officers of
the detective corps. and, when he takes a
ride III the park, or even ventures on a short
Official visit to one of the departments, a
maa precsdes and follows him. The vig.-
lanos is severe and thorough. The emperor,
may remark III passing, is never guarded
by detectives, but his personal staff hover
about him 10 fashion that renders any in
terGere3ce from nihilists or socialists well
nigh impossible.

As TO the skill of the German detectives,
it cannot, think, be compared fer a mo-
ment with that of the police of Paris or New
York. During an investigation Of some So
cialst troubles in Berlin, l was thrown
among the police constantly, and, on many
occasions was impressed by the clunsiness
of their work. They do not seem to have
fairly graspcd the methods Of having
spies in tie ranks, which are So famlller
with the great detective forces OF the orld.
For instance, all of the recent develop
ments in Chicago socialism have been
brought about by spies in the service of the
Chicago police, who mingled with, and were
conbdants and personal friends of all the
socialists. IN the case Of the ''Qn strike,
two Of PiDkerton's men joined the Brother
hood of Engineers. and became personal
friends of Broderlck and all the other dy-
namiters. They were taken into the counsels
of the plotters, and every possible bit of
evidence which tie strikers possessed was
freely impaired to the police.
The value Of this testimony was as great
as that which InsY Eonlield of Chica-
go is constantly receiving from another por-
ton of the criminal world. Bonfield told
me something of his system, and am also
familiar w th tie methods of Inspector
Byrnes of New York. Both of them act on
the principles enforced by The remarkably
Nigilant a d capable secret service of St.
Petersburg
TIE French police are to my notion a
trifie too theatrical. In broad and spec
tacu.ar sense, Lecocq, Of course, was won
der, and the things lie did, when retailed by
Gaboriaus clever pen, are amazing. 1t
cannot, for an instant, be claimed that
the French detectives are as clever as Ca
boriau has drawn them, but they are, never
theless, wonderfully efficient. The theatri-
cal display, which is an Integral part of
the French character, has found its vent,
naturally enough. in the detective service,
in the art Of disguise. In this the French
are complete, but they lose much in their
striving after effect
AS far as my own opinion is concerned
and it is, of course, not that of an expert,
but only as en- observer of The different de
tectives of tho world consider Inspector
Byrnes staff of men Individually and in
contestably superior to any other detective
force in the world. 1t is due entirely TO the
skill of the Chief The day has gone by
when there is any carping at the chief iR
spector of detectives in New York city
Byrnes, to-day, stands at the head of his
craft. His pane is as familiar in Berlin,
Paris and London as it is in New York, and
his ideas have not only been copied all over
this country, but they are rapidly winning
their way on the other side.
/ think they are based on the Russian
system, but the development is purely and
wholly American. | have never met a
shrewder or more capable detective, and no
light measure Of his success in managing the
criminals elements of New York is due to
the fact that he has secured for his assist
ants men who are bright, capable and en-
terprising. They need some of them in
London now. BLAKELY HALL.

from the House Of Commons, saw Mr..
Balfour stroll off toward the bird-cage walk,
at midnight, attended by single detective,
