DEATH OF THEODORE BACON.
Occurred Yesterday in Rochester, N. Y

Occurred Yesterday in Rochester, N. Y.
 "A Brother of pr. Francis Bacon.
 Theodore Bacon, an eminent lawyer of Rochester, N. Y., and for many years well known citizen of New Haven, died yesterday morning in Rochester at the age of sixty-five years. He had been i'll for several weeks with a ner- yous disorder and his death was not unexpected. He leaves two sons Leon- ard B. Bacon and Henry s. Bacon, both graduates of Yale, the former of the class of '93 and the latter of the class of '96. He was brother of Dr. Fran cis Bacon of this city and of Rev. Dr. Leonard Bacon of Norwich.
 Theodore Bacon was born in New Ha- venu in 1884 being a son of the Rev. Dr. Leonard Bacon. He was graduated from Yale in 1853 and was a classmate of Charlton T. Lewis, Wayne Mac veagh, E. c. Stedman and Andrew D. White After graduating from college he studied law with the late Henry R. Selden and was admitted to the par in 1S56 He then travelled in Europe for several years, but when the civil war broke out he enlisted in the Seventh Connecticut volunteers and served throughout the conflict with distinction, having the rank of captain After the war he resumed the practice of law in Rochester. He always took an active interest in public affairs and was re- publican until 1S72-the Greeley cam paign-when he became an independ- ent. He was nominated for congress on the democratic ticket in 1S56 and de- feated. Later on he was strongly rec commended by the bar of Rochester as successor to the late Justice Blatch- ford on the United States supreme court bench. In 1898 MT. Bacon accepted the nomination of the citizens union party for governor of that state in order to give expression to the independent feel ing.
 One of his classmates says of him that he was man of the greatest abil- ity and the highest character. He was

Speaking about the local force
Of the police department it seems
to be in most rotten condition
Recently a man was pinched and
no charge was placed against him,
though ne was pinched as bunco
man. A gentleman, who knew
the man went to the headquarters
and demanded that he be released
at once or there would be trouble,
and this was forthwith done. But
that was not all of the story, the
officer that made the arrest wanted
to know Of the sponsor for the
man who was arrested, ''why it was
that when he pinched bunco out
Of whom he could get piece
some one always got him out and
he had to lose the dough? 'In the
future" continued the officer, II
propose to pinch every suspect
that comes along unless he digs
up The papers say the police
officers are in the business, and one
had as well have the game as to
bear the blame" From the above
it would appear that the citizens
are in as much danger from the
police force as from the crooks
that now roam at will over the city.
