CHANGES IN POLICE FORCE
Three Officers Dismounted and the Sue
cessor to Each Named.
Sergeant Estes Resignation Accepted
He Receives Commission as
officer in Volunteer Army.

Mai. Sylvester has announced several
changes in the police department. Three
officers of the ninth precinct, William H.
West, Philip Browne and W. G. Sweet, are
Gsmounted. Their places are filled by Po-
licemen S. o. H. Russell of the third pre-
cinct. Robert Tapscott of the eighth pre-
cinct. and Rufus Vanderschaaf of the ninth
precinct.
officer West, who is a colored man, has
been under charges a number of times, and
accusations made against him few weeks
ago when he was thrown from his horse
and injured have not been settled. He has
been on the force since 1872. He once ar
rested the late Gen q. S. Grant for fast
driving. The general commended him for
his strict attention to duty and, 1t is said
forfeited his collateral.
A number OF times the officer has been
warned and reprimanded, while on other
occasions he was acquitted when tried on
charges. Recently he put in an application
for retirement. This application has not
yet been acted upon.
Policeman Tepscott, who succeeds him, is
also colored. He has been doing duty in
Lieut.. kenneys command, and because of
his good record his name has been men
toned several times in connection with pro-
motions.
Officers Vanderschaaf and Russell were
also promoted because of their good rec
ords. The former has been doing duty a
bicycle officer under Lieut.. Daley and the
latter as a footman i'll Lieut. Boyle's COM
mand.
The three officers who received the pro-
motions Will do duty in the ninth precinct,
which includes Benning and vicinity.
The resignation of Acting Sergeant G. G.
Estes, anticipated in The Star several days
ago. has been accepted, and Bicycle Police
man j. W. Robertson received promotion in
consequence. In this position he will do
duty in about one-half of the police terri
tory in the city, and report to the lieuten-
ant inspector in charge of that particular
section. EX-Sergeant Estes received COM
mission in the army and will go to the
Philippines.
James G. Dunn was appointed to the
vacancy created.

Grape-Nuts WAS placed the market for the

T HE SAM GA DIVISION
Commissioner Eliot Regards It as a Good
Arrangement.
Advantages Gained by Great Britain
in New Guinea and
Africa.

Mr.. c. N. E. Eliot, the British commits
sioner for Samoa, said today, concerning
the Samoan settlement:
1T is an extraordinarily good arrangement
all around, not only for Samoa but for all
the governments concerned. The only nat
ural and normal condition for Samoa is a
government by one power over tho two
large islands of Upolu and Savaii, which
are in such c:cse proximity that their sep
aration would be like the ACKNOWLEDGMENT
of a single island. This however does not
apply to Tutuila, which goes to the United
States as that island Is separated some
thirty miles from Upolu. 1 do not see that
Great Britain has lost anything of import
ance in Samoa, but If so the loss is quite
Counterbalanced by acquisitions and rights
in Tonga Island, two of the Solomon
Islands and other settlements brought
about by the agreement"
1t is understood that the compensation
granted to Great Britain is considerably
more valuable than has appeared The
Island of Tonga possesses one of the best
harbUrs in the Pacific, called Vivau, and
since British interests in the island are now
confirmed, there appears to be reason
why this fine harbor should not be fortified.
The accession of the islands of Ysabel and
Choisel is regarded as mainly important in
rounding out the British possessions in
New Guinea, as these two islands are really
part of the New Guinea archipelago, as
much so as Negros and Leyte are part of
the Philippine archipelago.
The removal of German consular jurisdic-
ton from Zanzibar is also regarded as an
important development in the African Sit
uation, as Zanzibar is the center of British
influence near British East Africa and Ger
man East Africa. Even more important in
bearing on the African question is the
agreement to delineate the boundary be-
tween British Ashantee and German Tongo
Land. This has long been a field for con-
troversy, but the Samoan agreement in
cludes a possible solution to the perplexing
problem in West Africa.
Altogether the share secured by Great
Britain in the settlement is regarded as
quite adequate to the Island of Savaii,
which would probably have fallen to her
lot in Samoa, as that island has no harbor
and is surrounded by a reef, which makes
is practically inaccessible

MAD WOMAN KISSES AN ELEPHANT
Rescued From Vicious Old Brute by
the Keeper.

From the New York World Today.
A woman who calls herself Mrs. Minnie
Putt or Mrs. Minnie Gillette, as the fancy
strikes her, created a sensation in the Cen
trail Park menagerie yesterday by entering
the elephants cage and kissing Big Tom,
the vicious Indian outcast from Barnum &
Bailey's circus.
1t was about 2 pm, and Tom was sway
ing lazily to and fro, when the oaken door
behind him was unbarred and Mrs. Putt
tail. well-formed and handsomely dressed,
stepped in
If elephants are ever surprised Tom was
but he was on his good behavior, and when
the woman went near and began to kiss
and stroke his trunk he passed 1t carefully
around her waist and did her no harm
In this position they were found a mo-
ment later by Keeper Billy Snyder, who
hastened from lAe deer park in answer to
the cries of some women who had been
standing in front of the cage when Tom $
visitor opened the door at the rear
The big elephant is usually anchored fore
and aft with huge iron chains, but yester-
day he was fastened only by one forefoot
Snyder knew that he might crush the
woman in a second, and hurried around to
the back of the cage.
Don't you think that you had better
come away?'' he said gently to the woman;
he may hurt you"
'Oh, no." she replied; Toms an old
friend of mine"
Snyder took her by the hand and the
elephant slowly withdrew his trunk from
her waist Then the keeper led her out
side the cage and busted himself in closing
the door.
The woman left to herself for a moment
walked to the cage of the rhinoceros. thirty
feet away, and tried to unbar the door
Snyder stopped her
That's all right" she said; this is an
other friend of mine
She turned reluctantly away when Snv
der told her she could not stay there. and
walked over toward the bear pit SNYDER
returned to secure the elephant and then
followed her in hot haste.
The woman passed the bear pit and hung
her hat and veil on the picket fence skirt
ing the transverse road Then she threw
herself on the ground and buried her face
in her hands
She was lifted up by Snyder and Police
man Matt MCDonOugh and taken to the
arsenal. After much questioning she said
that her name was Minnie Gillette. and
that she lived at No. go West 37th street
she had in her possession a letter ad
dressed to Mrs. NJ. Putt, postmarked Tel
iuride, COL. and received early in the morn
ing: inc letter had not been opened
She SAID that she was thirty-fye Yea rs
Ola ana insisted that she was half negro
ana half Indian, although she evidently has
not a drop of mixed blood in her veins As
she could give no coherent account of her-
self. Sergeant Dillon had her taken 70
