IN THE BANQUET HALL.
Two hours were very pleasantly
passed at the banquet table, and all
had very sociable time. Many OF
the officers made remarks commend
atory of their chief, and many were
the tOasts offered. Chief Warren,
In . acknowledgement, thanked
them both for their good wishes and
the diligence with which they had
performed their duties during the
time he acted as chief. He also
thanked the members of the press
for the treatment he had received
at their hands. A resolution of
thanks was extended the press by
the police department. The re-
porters present in turn thanked the
chief, and the officers individually,
for the many courtesies shown them
in their daily search for news.
Upon leaving the Merchants, the
officers marched up past the engine
house and gave the fire laddies
three cheers, which were returned
with will. Arriving back at the
police headquarters all the officers
assembled in the council chamber,
where Chief Warren told them that
inasmuch as his term of Office would
expire next Saturday, he would not
likely be able to again see them in a
body. He then thanked them for
their past favors.
