WORKS LIKE A CHARM.
The Reorganization of the Police Bureau Is
Success.

The Reorganization of the Police Bureau Ii
Success.
Since Superintendent Weir assumed full
control of the Police Bureau many new
plans have been adopted for the betterment
of the service. He has made it special
point to get the greatest good out of the
least number of men, and to this
end has abolished several features
of the work heretofore in opera
ton. Most important of these was
the doing away with night detectives. 1t
had been customary to have two detectives
tramping the downtown streets from mid
night till daylight. The Superintendent
found that as these men could never be
found when wanted at headquarters and
were unable to do day duty some other plan
was necessary. He said yesterday:
eve now have sleeping quarters at
Central station and have two
detectives sleeping there instead of walking
the streets. The eight detectives take lheir
turns at this duty. have found that the
uniformed officers are capable of attending
to everything, except in case of murder or
robbery In such event there is need of
officers in citizens clothes, and we have two
ready to turn out at a moments notice
Iney are not called out more tnan once
week, and are in good trim,for day duty, when
detectives are most needed. We thus gain
two men,"
Under he new order of things Inspector
Silvis and his assistants are rapidly getting
the details of the bureau into systematic
shape. Officers have had to be drilled and
Unanswered, beats classified in better shape
and everything put through vigorous
course of fixing up. The Second district
was started on first and is now nearly up to
the standard. The Third will soon be in
similar shape All over the city to-day the
daylight policemen will appear in their
dress coats and the night men will don their
overcoats.
''The reorganization of the bureau" said
Superintendent Weir, "has already proven
a success. Other alterations will be found
necessary in time, no doubt, and they will
be made"

A POSTAL INSPECTION
Now Being Conducted in Allegheny
County Under a New System.
ALL OFFICES FOUND sHIPs-HAPE.
Both Traction Companies officials Deny
Consolidation Rumors.
CHATS ABOUT TOWN WITH OTHER MEN

Postmaster Mexican is at present busily
engaged in the inspection of the postofices
of Allegheny county under the new system
just inaugurated. By this method every
postoffice in the United States will be thor
oughly inspected within one month, and the
reports will be in Washington.
inspectors are first sent out by the de-
partment to every county seat in the United
States," said Mr.. Mexican last evening,
'and the county seat postoffices are in
spected by them. The other Offices in the
county are then inspected under
the direction of the county seat
postmasters. In Allegheny county
there are 156 postofices. On account Of
moving we did not get started with the in
spection in this county until Monday, but
during the week we completed the e1amina-
tion of about 70 offices. We have found
those thus far examined in Allegheny county
in excellent condition.
1.-The reports of the inspectors cover the
location of offices with relation to the resi-
dences of patrons, condition as to cleanli-
ness, order, condition of books and ac-
counts, time of opening and closing
mails, complaints of patrons, postmaster's
knowledge of postal laws, whether work
is done by the postmaster or assistants,
compensation paid, other business of post
master, improvements in the service since
appointment of present incumbent, distance
to four nearest postoffices, distance to near
est telegraph office and nearest savings
bank, etc. The offices are rated on each Of
these points, and the total shows the stand
ing. We expect to complete the work in
another week"

port, the number of those who wanted hon
est government was growing, and it could
not be kept in line for the benefit of pro-
fessional politicians
NOT SAND ENOUGH FOR ALL EYES.
He rejoiced in the belief that there
wasn't sand enough in the State to fill the
eyes of good citizens who are intelligent,
and, though they may be staunch Repub-
hcans, they want the name of the party to
stand for something more than mere money.
George Johnston, real estate dealer, said
that he had grown weary of politics and
hadn't enough interest in it to discuss the
matter, but he thought innocent men should
not be afraid of investigation, but should
rather court it.
E. H. Brady, the insurance agent, con-
demned Governor Pattison's action in call
ing the Senate together, in language as
forcible as English could supply. He said
il was the most extreme partisan action he
had ever known a Governor to take. Pat
tiscn, he said, had invited the issues of war
and wo nd suffer the defeat of his favorite
candidates as a result of using the peoples
money to further his own Presidential am
bitions.

It VIII Save Fre., Increase the Draft and
Capacity of YoCr Boilers and Protect
Your Neighbors From the Smoke Nui-
sancp.
The Western Smoke Preventer will do
all this for comparatively little cost The
| device is simple, effective and satisfactory
in every respect, as is demonstrated by the
vast number now in use. You can sup
plant gas with lump, nut or slack coal and
save 90 per cent in fuel and at the same
time prevent annoyance to and protect the
health and property of your neighbors.
The preventeris is readily adjusted to plants
of all description in less than - hours time;
causes no damage TO any part of machinery
and is very easily operated. 1t consists of
device that in operation forms hydrogen
gas, which is distributed over the fires in
the furnace, causing as complete combustion
as the laws of nature will permit and pre-
vents emission of smoke from the stacks.
The Western Smoke Preventer Company
also controls the:

FLATTEsT KIND OF A DENIAL
To Consolidation Rumors, From Official
of Both Traction Roads.

To Consolidation Rumors, From Officials
of Both Traction Roads.
c. L. Magee, President of the Duquesne
Traction Company, emphatically denies that
the Duquesne and Pittsburg companies are
to consolidate: or that any negotiations are
pending. When shown statement that the
rivals would come together upon Mr.. Wide
ner's return from Europe, October %, Mr.
Magee said he knew nothing of Mr.. Wide
ner's business or future intentions.
'Iknow, however," said Mr.. Magee, ''that
neither the Duquesne nor Pittsburg COM
panies has made any advance toward the
other, or in any way indicated desire for
union. We are getting along very well, and
have nothing to gain by consolidation"
A Philadelphia telegram quotes w. L.
Elkins, of the Pittsburg company, as say
ing that no negotiations are pending for
consolidation of the two roads. He says
the Fifth avenue line is making no money,
but that it was forced to adopt Scent fare,
for protection. Any talk about consolida-
tion, he added, was manufactured out of the
whole cloth.
Notwithstanding Mr.. Elkins' statement
that 3-cent fare is failure, Mayor Gourley,
who was spoken to yesterday, with regard
to the traction war; said he believed every
road in the city could afford to reduce its
fare to 3 cents and still paw
reasonable dividend on the capital invested.
"But by the invested capital, 1 do not
mean the capital stock" continued the
Mayor SIT is well-known fact that every
road in the city has its stock watered to
almost double the cost of the road and roll
ing stock. 1t is not fair to make the public
pay dividends on watered stock, and l am
in favor of some law that will regulate the
price of fare. In case that is impracticable,
another remedy offered is to adopt Phila-
delphia's plan of compelling the roads to
pave the streets they traverse from curb to
curb

REFUSING TO TAKE MONEY.
People Actually Begging to Be Relieved Of
Their Money.

In the whole history of commercial affairs
such case as this has never presented it
self. Sixteen men. most of whom enjoy
the reputation of being capable of giving
the required attention to three persons at
one time, were obliged to apologize to anx-
ious people who had to leave the great sac
rifce salesroom without receiving due at
tention. Many people could be heard offer
ing their money, asking to be allowed to
carry the goods away unwrspped, and on
many occasions they were refused for fear a
mistake would occur. This sacrifice sale of
clothing has been most phenomenal, and
the management takes this method of ex-
pressing his regrets to those who could not
be properly waited on. If the public will
be good enough to call tomorrow all the
assurance is given that they will receive the
necessary attention. This sacrifice sale of
tailor-made clothing is to prevent a disas-
trous case of bankruptcy. It's located at
646 Liberty street, corner of Sixth avenue,
and all those wishing to obtain the very
finest tailor-made suits and overcoats at one
third their actual value should not fail to
attend this great sale.-Advt.
