Slated for Lacombs's Bench.
Ex-Rsgister Reilly His Probable
Successor In tho Board.

Police Commissioner Charles r. Mac
Lean will. 1t is said, shortly be appoint
cd Judge of the United States Cir
cult Court.
There has been much talk in and
around Police Headquarters for several
days past that Mr. MncLean was to
have q Federal appointment, and to-
day IL was stated that in the event
OF Judge Il. Henry Lncombc being ap-
pointed Judge of the United states
Supreme Court. to succeed the late
Judgs Blntchford, Mr.. MacLean would
succeed him In the United States Cir
cult Court.
Nothing definite can lie learned at
the Commissioners office. but the off,
cials at Headquarters are expecting to
hear daily of Mr.. MacLean's appoint
ment.
Mr. MacIcan is a lawyer. prominent
in his profession. His Office Is Mt 80
Nassau street. He is counsel for the
/ 5,aats-Ieitung and several corpora tons.
and has been retained in many impor-
tant railroad cases.
He was appointed Police Commits
sioncr by Mayor Hewitt in 1888. His
term expires next May. This is his
| second term IN the Police Board.
He is a Democrat. but is not afl1liatcd
with any local organization. In the
Police Board he usually votes against
the Tamnany Hall Commissioners.
At the time Of his appointment by
Mayor Hewitt he was supposed to be a
| Tammany man. He did belong to the
/ organization IN the Old Ninth District.
presided over by Barney Martin. now
Police Justice. but took no interest in
political affairs In the district, and was
finally dropped from the organization.
1t is said that he only Joined the or
ganiza tion SO that II could be said that
| Mayor Hewitt appointed a Tammany
| man.
Since MIR. Voorhis became Police
Judge. Mr.. MacLean has been in the
minority in the Police Board.
1t has been known for n long time
that ex-Register John Reilly wanted to
| be a Police Commissioner. At the time
when Commissioner Sheehan's term eN.

| With Mr.. MacLean out of the Board
and Mr.. Reilly III 1t. Tammany Hall
would have three Commissioners. and
Mr.. McClave. the Republican member
would be in the minority.
