Butte. April 30.-Mayor-elect Thomp-
son, r. j. Tebo, who will be the next
city marshal, and Police Commissioners
Brophy. Maule and Gallick, held a
quiet little meeting this afternoon to
discuss matters relating to the new po-
LICE force. No reporters or other out
siders were invited or informed of
what was going on. and II was intend
ed that the meeting should be a very
secret one. The proceedings leaked out.
however, as they have q way of doing
at about all of the secret meetings
that are held in Butte. At the request
of Mr.. Thompson, the three commits
sioners went through the present list
OF patrolmen, and voted on each one
separately, with a view of selecting
the best men who could be recon-
mended for reappointment by the new
council The following officers received
a majority vote of the three commits
sioners. and the vote was unanimous
in nearly every instance: w. G.
Tucker. w +. Barnaman, Joe Sinsel.
William Hogan. George A. King, s. j.
Waters, A. Forest, Alex O'Handley. G.
G. Coulter. j. a. Dwyer. James Baldi-
sero. A. J. Werner. J. J. Barry. J. III.
Steinborn, A. f. Gray, p. ]. Newstrom
and John Nicol.
This action of the commissioners
does not bind Mr.. Thompson to stand
by IL in any way. but was simply adj
visory. IL is understood. however, that
all of the officers named will be reap
pointed, with the possible exception of
Forest O'Handley and Barry. whose
cases are under advisement. Mr..
Thompson submitted the list of appli-
cants for positions on the force which
he has received to the commissioners.

way, although no action was taken on
any Of them. The official list of APP

The present police commission will
hold its final meeting tomorrow aft
ernoon, and IL is understood that
rule will be passed at this meeting de-
handing certain qualifications from po-
licemen In the way of size, age and
education. A similar rule was passed
by the present commission soon after
its organization, but. like two or three
others, II was never enforced. Mr..
Maule's term expires this year. and
there will be a good deal of regret over
the fact that he. cannot be reappointed
on account of the law. which provides
that not more than three members of
the commission shall belong to the
same political party. Mayor Thompson
and Mr.. Gallick are old-time republic
ans, and as Mr.. Tebo has also de-
clared that he is a republican, the new
mayor will be compelled to appoint a
democrat to succeed Mr.. Maule. 1t
Is believed that the appointee for this
Office will either be A. III. Barrett John
A. Fraser or j. II. Reins.
