Mr.. Burcwyn thinks the Government IL
making a great mistake IN not appropri-
atine sufficient sum NJ once TO open the
stream 20 its proper depth up 70 the Rich-
mond harbor. IL could be done much
cheaper and IN a great deal moro satisiac-
tory manner than by extending the i'm:
provement through n score or more OF
years. Necessarily the funds available fan
20 accomplish as much as the same amount
would DO were the Government 90 observe
a more liberal policy and give the money
needed 40 one time.
Mr. Burewyns idea has always been and
is sfill TO regulate the width of the chan
hel according 90 natural conditions. A
certain width will be established here
which will increase a. the stream flows on
towards the bay.

The complainant was recalled, and
said: "The statement of the defendant

WICKED PLACES.
THE CHIEF REPORTS THE NUMBER
OF THEM IN THE CITY.
The Proceedings at Yesterdays Meeting
of the Police Commission - The Fire
Board Transacts Considerable Business.

The board of police commissioners met
in regular session yesterday afternoon.
The report of Chief Glass for the
month of November containing the
usual budget of information relative to
the work of the department, was re-
ceived and filed.
The chiefs annual report was also re-
ceived and filed. 1t contains among
other items of interest, the following:
There are in the city 10 hotels 212
lodging-houses, of which 81 have a
doubtful reputation; II pawnbrokers, 4
of whom are Chinese 27 second hand
dealers; III saloons; 65 poker rooms,
exclusive of those places where an oc-
casional game is allowed 10 houses Of
prostitution; 80 "crlbs;" 104 prosti-
tutes known to the police and 25 mac
quereaux.
In Chinatown there are 26 fan-tan
rooms 8 lottery companies; II Chinsese
pool rooms; and 38 Mungolian prosti-
tutes.
In the matter of the claim OF Ellen
Anderson against officer S. Van Cleve,
for $42.50, the latter admitted that it
was just debt and that he intended to
pay 1t as soon as he could. AS the
debt was contracted before Van Cleve
was put on the force the board refused
to take any action in the matter, and
the report was received and filed.
The bill of j. G. Joughin, for $23 so,
for boarding the horse formerly used by
the police, to draw the patrol wagon,
and which when lame was turned out
to grass by order of the council, was re-
turned with instructions to present
formal demand direct to the council.
The applications OF Joel G. Brush and
FL. W. Coroles for positions on the po-
lice force were received and filed.
The chief reports that the grand jury
had asked him to have a number of
copies of section 81 of the city ordinance
relating to the inspection and construc-
tion of buildings, fire regulations, etc.,
printed and posted in all places of
amusement. He was authorized to
have 500 copies of the section printed.
Mr. Dexter then inquired whether
there were not some vacancies on the
force to be filled.
Mayor Hazard replied that there were
one or two vacancies, but until the chief
came in with request for more men he
would oppose any motion to make new
appointments, and hoped the board
would abide by its resolution adopted at
previous meeting, to that effect.
