PROSPECTIVE COMMISSIONERS TALK.
For days the corridors of the New York
Life building have been filled with parties
going to the rooms of George w. Covell OF
tielfenstein land fame and his partner, At
torney General Churchill. Yesterday the in
formation was given out from these. rooms
that Land Commissioner Russell and
Churchill had agreed upon their appointees
for the Fire and Police commissioners and
that the official announcement would be
made public just after the clock tolls the
hour of IL tonight and that Foster for the
democrats, Broatch for the republicans and
Vandervoort for the popuss would shape
the destnies of the fire and police forces Of
the city.
Interviewed upon the subject Of appoint
ments, Colonel Foster said last night that he
was aware that his name had been handed
in. 81 have not given the matter much
thought" added the colonel, "but | have un-
derstood that | am to be one of the three
appointees. As yet / have not been officially
notified of my appointment and consequently
| could not outline the policy that will be
pursued by the new board" Mr., Foster
hoped that there would be no trouble be-
tween the members of the present Board OF
Fire and Police Commissioners and those APP
pointed under the provisions Of the
Churchill Russell bill. He did not know
when his appointment would be made,
though he inferred that 1t would be soon.
Of Colonel A. c. Foster, where he said he
had called to spend the evening in social
way. Asked If he was aware that his name
had been presented to Attorney General
Churchill and Land Commissioner Russell,
and that he had been mentioned a candi-
date for a position on the Board of Fire and
Police Commissioners, as contemplated by
the Churchill Russell bill Mr.. Broatch said:
IL do not know that my name has bssn sent
in. | do not know that | would accept II
appointed. II appointed. | would have to
give the matter some Consideration before I
could decide just what | would do, In addi-
ton to this, l have nothing to say"
Last evening, when a reporter called at
the residence Of Paul Vandervoort, Mr.. Van-
dervoort's son stated that his father was at
the residence OF Colonel A. G.. Foster, where
he had gone to spend the evening. At the
Foster residence the information was given
out by Mr.. Foster that VandervoOrt was not
there; that he had not been invited and that
he was not expected to be present.
