POLICE REPORTS.
The New System of Efficiency Records
Gives Trouble.

Gives Trouble.
There is one provision in the new police
manual that is giving the police lieuten-
ants some trouble, as well causing I'M
easiness among the members of class one.
This is the rule providing for the report
of the records of the officers each week,
and for a consolidated report at the end
of each month, to be made by the superin-
tendent to the Commissioners. Under this
regulation, which was suggested by Com
missioner Truesdell, the weekly reports of
the ieutenants show how many times an
officer has been absent without leave, his
personal appearance. the complaints against
him, whether reprimanded, trials and their
result, and whether or not the officer has
lost any equipments. In conclusion, the
lieutenant has to report whethe- the OFF,
Ger is highly efficient, efficient or inefficient.
What is causing the lieutenants more trou-
bic than anything else is distinguishing be-
tween efficient and highly efficient, and IT
is said that the efficiency of the lieuten-
ants is to be Judged from their reports.
Under the rules an officer of the first class
has to be rated as highly efficient for at
least one year before he can get a pro-
motion to the second class. This, the OFF,
GERS fear, will make promotions scarce in
the future. Heretofore. the length of serv-
ice, merit being considered, governed pro-
motions.
Mai. Moore has made one report under
these rules, and his second report, which
may be made next week, it is thought, will
be an interesting one. especially to the
members of the force.
