EIGHT-HoUR RULE.
Purpose of the RECEIPT Order Issued to
Bicycle Squad.

Some dissatisfaction has been expressed
by members of the police bicycle squad be-
cause of the recent order by Major Syi-
vester making a change In their hours OF
duty. Prior to the first Of this month they
were in service eight hours each day, with
no reserve duty at the station, and the
applicants for the positions were numerous.
Under the new order, however, it is stated,
many of the wheelmen are anxious to aban-
don the silent steed and return to foot
duty.
The order to the lieutenants issued by
Major Sylvester is as follows:
On and after November ], 1901, COM
mencing at o'clock pm, the officers doing
duty on bicycles will perform reserve duty
as follows:
One bicycle man in each precinct at the
end of trick of duty, will return to the
station four hours after reporting OF
and go ION reserve" for eight hours. Then
the second one will come on, the third,
fourth and fifth, and repeat
Example, November 1-Men A and b,
street duty, am. to pm; reserve duty,
A, 8 pm. to am: men c and D, street
duty, I'm. to II midnight; reserve duty, c.
am. to II noon; men E, street duty. Il
midnight to am; reserve duty, E, l. noon
to pm.
November 2-Men A and B, street duty.
8 a m. to pm; reserve duty, b, pm. to
am; men c and D, street duty, pm. to
- midnight; reserve duty, d, am. to i.
noon; men E, street duty, u midnight to

November 3-Men A and B, street duty, S

am; men c and d, street duty, pm. to
II midnight; reserve duty, c, am. to IL
noon; men E, street duty, Il midnight to
m; reserve duty, E, u noon to pm.
Speaking to Star reporter today Major
Sylvester said the change was experimental,
and a report on the result of it will be made
in few days. 1t is what is known the
eight-hour system and reference to it wnl
be made in the annual report Of the super
intendent. Major Sylvester hopes to apply
the eight hour rule to the entire force, AMI
it may be that some changes in the hours
fixed in the order will be made.
