POLICE UNDER SURVEILLANCE.
THE ATLANTA HOARD HAS THE MEN
sHADOWED. :

A Detective Suspended From the
Force Used as a SIeuth by the Com
mIssiOners-He became so Abusive
of the Force as TO Throw All the
Omcers and Crooks on Their Guard
His Report Not Given Out Yet.
Atlanta, Ca, July 1.-THE Atlanta po-
lice department is a mysterious instit1-
ton. Since The political shaking UP has
threatened 10 disrupt the department sew
eral months back. it has developed many
queer traits. but the disclosures I'm the
case Of Detective Green Conn outclasses
any OF the novelties Yet introduced. Corn
was taken up by the police board soon
after the grand shuttle in April and plao-
ed in the detective department. After
serving there for a short while a great row
was stirred up. and Conn was suspended
for alleged characterization. Upon his
suspension Conn launched out in a career
of unparalleled abuse Of the whole police
department. He "cussed out" everything
in sight from the police board down. in
consequence he soon became popular with
the crooks and hoboes and was tabooed
by his old associates. It was accidentally
discovered. however. that Conn was stIil
drawing his pay as a city detective and
then the discovery was made that his
suspension and his venomous attack on
the department was all a scheme put up
by the police board 10 hOodwink the
crooks and fool the members Of the .l--
partment. whom Conn was set to watch
for the purpose of giving private infor-
nation 10 the police board. Chief of PO-
lice Connolly and Chief of Detectives
Wright were blissfully ignorant OF Conn's
relations with the board, as we'll as every
body else until the scheme leaked out.
They are now much worked up to think
they as well as their men have been spied
upon by a secret agent Of the police board.
What information he has been able 10
give the board has not yet developed.

A FRANK CONFESSION.

The editor Of the Topeka Mail Is q
personal friend Of Major Hudson, of
the Capital, and would not misrepre-
sent him for all the world. Recently
the Mail published an interview In
which the major was quoted as saying:
1t iS all nonsense to say that the Capital
company was formed to assist me In defrsud-
ing my creditors, for when the stock company
was organized was flying high and thought
was worth considerable money. I made q
sufficient showing to Mr.. MulvAne to convince
him that l was all right financially In those
days have simply been the victim Of Demo-
cratic hard timea Since l have been unable
to meet interest my indebtedness has about
doubled up on me.
Now nearly every editor and pub
Usher has recently felt the pinch of
hard timee, and most of us would sym.
pathiEe with the Major were it not that
this seems Like q case Of retributiOn.

son has been uphOlding the financial

great admiration for Cleveland. What
