The policemen claim that their pay

be increased rather than reduced. The
pay Of first-class patrolmen is only
$1,000 a year!
Indications seem to point to a re
duction of the number of policemen
as we'll as reduction in their Salar-
les. Mayor Hopkins has been receiv.
ing numerous delegations in the inter
ests of men who are now members OF
the force, and Of whom it is said
nothing has been said, which IS taken
to mean that a reduction of the force
is imminent Chief Brennan says he
does not know if the finance committee
has cut his forces, though he hopes
not, for he thinks he has not now
enough men to police the city as it
should be.
1t is said another general order
shaking up the police force is immi-
nent. The fact that no one has been
selected to succeed Captain Kane, who
was transferred to the Desplaines
street station, gives the rumor support.
