cnARc.s AcAlNsr OFFICER nAKER
Went 10 Foes Monroe rs Wit
Observation-Disclosures To-Day.

Charges have been preferred against
Policeman w. ". Baker, OF the Second
District. and that officer was on Monday
suspended by Mayor Taylor. pending an
Investigation OF The same. The Board OF
Police Commissioners viii meet IN regu-
lar session in the Office OF the chief
Of Police at o'clock this afternoon. when
Mr.. Bakers ease will probably be heard.
10 was almost impossible TO ascertain
yesterday the exact language OF the
charges against officer Baker, or the
; name Of the person by whom they were
preferred. II rs understood. however,
that the charges allcgc that Mr.. Baker
went TO Fort Monroe and testified.
"to the injury OF Policeman +. G. Bailey
| The Mayor. the Chief OF Police. and
Captain !. y. Angle. Of the Second Dis
I trlct, declined TO discuss the matter last
evening.
The trouble appears TO have grown
out OF a Police Court case here. on De
ccmpcr 2G. 1926. man was taken
into custody by Oncors Forrest c. Bailey
and Baker. who were on Main street.
The man was sent 10 the Second Police
Station. and was before The Police Court
on Monday. December Is, 1896 where ne
was charged as follows:
"E ID. Furman. charged with being
a dosertcr from the United states Army.
Witness. f. c. Bailey Turned over 10
the United states authorities"
on the docket for ordinance violations,
the following appears:
II u. Furman. drunk on tho streets.
Witness. +. G. Bailey Dismissed"
Deputy United States Marshal a. jan
ncy Peasants took charge Of Furman.
and the arrest was reported to Lleuten-
ant Miller. who had charge Of the re-
cruiting station I'm this city, located on
the north side Of Broad street near
Seventh
II seems that officer Baker who was
I'm company with officer Bailey at the
time the man was taken into custody.
did not figure I'm the proceedings IN any
way When the man was taken TO
Fort Monroe for trial IN some way
the name of officer W. n. Baker was
put down as one Of the Witnesses in the
case. and that Of officer Forrest G.
Bailey omitted.
A detective from this city IS said 20
have been to Fort Monroe within the
last day or two to secure evidence in the
case but for which OF the parties Is
not known. Several officers from Fort
Monroe have been SUNNI ned TO appear
here and Lieutenant Miller. Of the re-
cruiting station here. will also be In
attendance. and IT is likely that the ma
ture of the testimony adduced at Fort
Monroe will be brought out.
When Lieutenant Miller was seen yes
tcrday he declined TO say anything In
connection with the case for publication
saving that until the findings of the
court-martial were given out it would be
manifestly improper for him to do so.
Both Officer Baker and officer Bailey
are I'm the Second District. and both re-
side i'm the eastern portion Of the city.

Of brine every week.
At depth Of some two hundred or
three hundred feet are immense sub
terranean lakes Of brine, and as the
contents Of these are pumped and
pumped away, the upper crust Of earth
is correspondingly weakened, and the
result is an occasional subsistence.
These subsidences have pulling"

The great strength OF bamboo poles
is not at all understood by the major
ity Of persons. It Is stated on excel
lent authority that two bamboo poles,
each Of them one and seventenihs in
ches in diameter, when placed eide by
side, will support grand piano slung
between them by ropes, and that they
will neither sag or break under the
burden. Bamboo will form poles six
ty-hye TO seventy feet long and from
eight to ton inches in diameter. A
derrick. twenty-six feet high, made Of
four-inch bamboo poles, raised two
iron girders weighing together four
hundred and twenty-four pounds. The
wonderful lightness Of this material in
proportion to its strength has excited
comment Of late, and now usea are
constantly being made Of 4. Scat
foldings Of bamboo have the advan-
tage Of lightness and strength. II is
predicted that this material will come
into general use for such purposes.

to quote a railway rule. Nor have
you the freedom Of crossing the tracks.
The trihing matter Of going up flight
OF stairs to cross the track on safe
and strong bridge saves many lives in
England, and by our lack Of such tafe-
guards many lives are sacrificed an
nually, as railway statistics show.
England may not be as free as the
United States, but she knows how to
guard the safety OF her people.
