There is loud grumbling among the MEM
berS of the police force at the recent order
OF the new board of police commissioners re-
ouiring the officers 10 stay on their beats
during their entire tour of duty, lasting
eight hours in a stretch, and not allowing
them to go home for meals. Heretofore
an officer was allowed to go home and get
his meals and he was supposed to return
to his beat as quickly as possible, but some
OF the men took advantage OF this and
would be absent from their beats for two
or three hours, aud this caused the issuing
OF the new order which is a very stringent
Que.
Despite the unusual dullnesS in business in
Alexandria the local building and loan as
sociations are still putting up their money
as fast as it comes in in good loans, and
every cent loaned by the associations is used
foI building purposes in Alexandria AT
the last meeting of the German Building AS
sociation, second series loans on thirty shares
amounting to So 900 Were made at a dis

Adee has again cabled him to press the
request for the record of Waller's trial

structed to say to the French authorities
that nothing less than the inspection of the
complete papers in the case VIII be suf

justice has been dore.
1t is also stated, upon what is believed
to be good authority, that the Instructors
