The City Governments Part

The board of aldermen met last night to
consider an official city appropriation to-
wards The entertainment fund. The meet
dng of the aldermen was a special one.
Several citizens were present advocating
official action, but because of the Charter
provision that no appropriation of city
funds should be made except ait a regular
meeting of the board The matter was post
poned until the regular meeting next
Wednesday evening. 1t was, however, the
expressed sense of every alderman pres
ent that THE city should give Admiral
Schley an enthusiastic and elaborate recep-
ton. Acting Mayor Pearce has called a
special meeting of citizens for Monday
evening at Elks' hall to consider the char
acter of decorations and entertainment,
Banquet to the Admiral
Today there will be meetings of promi-
rent citizens, and committees will proba-
bly, be appointed to raise funds for the
street decora tions.
A banquet will be given the admiral on
the evening of the 18th. This will be given
by private subscription apportioned among
those who will attend, notifying Secretary
Rountree in advance. 1t is expected that
not less than $50 will be present. Those
who would attend should notify Secretary
Rountree at once.

Ahead of All Southern Cities

"TIhere are very few cities in the south
whose police Departments are se,f-suus,ta aim
ing, and with this rowing | think we
should be entitled to enough increase in
force to protect citizens OF this city and
preserve order on the streets. If the de-
paftmept is self-sustaining with the pres
ent small force, with an increase of men
1t should be almost doubly So"
Cautain of Police W. E. Weir is very
anxious for an increase of the force ard
while discussing the question last night
presented some strong arguments as to the
necessity for additional men.
III can mention one instance" said the
captain, (which occurred last week where If
more men could have been gotten we could
have caught murderer A negro named
Will Drake shot and killed another negro
on the corner of Nineteenth street and
Third avenue. This is within block of
the station house and still we had no man
on duty at that place. Mr.. Walton is on
duty on that beat but at the time of the
Shooting had gone to supper and as there
was no man to relieve him the beat was
left unprotected took four men and went
in search of the murderer but our efforts
were unsuccessful. We had no men to
watch the railroad yards and the houses
the negro f-equented and consequently he
escaped.
This was also true of the case of the
man killed in the Monitor saloon. 1 took
several men from their beats and attempted
to locate the man that night, but our force
was too small to be of much service.
ain this connection 1 would say 1 know
of several 6urglaries which have been
committed in the resident portion of the
city, and valuable property was lost. This
could hardly have occurred If we had had
officers to protect that territory. At pres
ert the residence part of this city is al
most totally without police protection.
''ln my experience l have found that
criminals, while fleeing from the police, al
most invariably go to their homes, or to
