HON. TOM CAUSED ASENsATI0N
Crowds Followed the Patrol Wagon
in Hoboken,

People in the vicinity of Police Head
quarters, Heboken, yesterday afternoon,
were attracted by a wild rush of the
patrol wagon UP Newark street, driven
by Doorman Mike Murray. Three or four
men from the station occupied seats in
the wagon.
Some one going to be pinched,'. The
urchins exclaimed as they scampered
after the ~ieeting patrol.
cts a raid said the men hanging
about the City Hall, as they joined the
crowd in pursuit of the wagon.
What is it anyway inquired the
passengers swarming out of the ferry
house lobby.
Everyone's attention was riveted on the
patrol. The wagon stopped in front of
the Post Office. Clerks laden with large
packages, wrapped in manila paper filed
the "hurry-up" with their burden. Every
one was disappointed with the patrols
mission and the crowd quickly dispersed.
Then the wagon reached Headquarters.
the packages were piled up in front of
the Sergeant's desk. jEach one contained
a bulky report of the Department of
Agriculture. The volumes were the gift
of Congressman Thomas McEwan. Every
patrolman received one and expressed
satisfaction with the gift. The reports
contain a deal of practical infermat,en.
Sergeant Marnell says they volunteer to
teach the INITIATED everything, from how
to plant a cherry tree to the best manner
of fattening a turkey gobbler.
Such an impression nave they made on
the men, said the Sergeant, "that the
majority of them are thinking about go
ing in for farming next spring"
