CHANGES EVEN AMONG THE RoUNDsMEN TO
Forr.Ow-Br=Y TIMFs.
The Shake up of The police force Is not likely TO
end with the general transfer OF the captains and the
reinandlng or tho precinct detectives to patrol duty
There were mmors at the Central Office yesterday that
tho turn Of the sergeants is to come next and that

about 100 sergeant; In the force and an equal number
Of round men. 1t might block the wheels OF the big
machine TO transfer them all I'm a batch, the cap
ains and detectives We're moved, and It Is probable
that the changes next In order viii be made gradually

Of tho energetic enforcement OF the law how
ever the earthquake must be felt by the patrolmen
on post, and the surcst way to accomplish that Is to
make changes In the scrceants and r0undsmen with
whom the ratrolmen are In daily contact. The duty
II a rcuEd-man Is 10 watch the policemen post
and make charges against them when they neglect to
patrol properly Or are gnilty OF misconduct. 1t IS
part OF a Sergeants duty TO perform the work.

Of the Scrgeants and to the faults OF their
