POLICE CHECKERS
Sergeants Shifted From Pre-
cinet to Precinct and Squads
All Changed.

The Police Commissioners met yester-
day afternoon and gave the Sergeants OF
the department a lively shaking up.
For some time there have been rumors
of a change. The Sergeants were be-
coming too intimate with the men and
were not keeping them up to the proper
standard of duty. A few Republican
Sergeants also were having disagree
ments with their Democratic Captains.
The only reason given yesterday for the
shake-up was tina it was for the good
of the force. Chief Murphy, it is said,
suggested it. The peculiar feature is
that every precinct except the First was
given new Sergeants. In the First the
Sergeants were merely given new tours
of duty.
The transfers made were as follows
Sergeant Tappin, from the Second to
the Seventh precinct; Quinn, from the
Seventh to the Second; Buckbee, from
the Seventh to the Second; Coffin, from
the Second to the Seyenfn; keliy, from
the Third to the Fifth; McDevitt,s from
the Fifth to the Sixth; Tomey, from the
