PENALTIES GATHERED IN.
Mr.. COSBY MAKING vIoLAToRs PAY Up
TANMANY LET THEM GO.

At the close Of business last night the account
books IN the office oi Assistant Corporation
Counsel Cosby, in charge Of the Bureau for the
Recovery OF Penalties showed that Mr.. Cosby's
star had recovered So 900 in penalties in the
north Of January and that this sum exceeds
any otne~ one months receipts in the history Of
the Office
The new order Of things in the Office has been
a painful surprise 10 certain offenders against
whom actions frequently were brought. While
Adrian T. Herman was in charge Of the bureau.
Mr. Herman was hampered in the discharge OF
his duties by old fashioned Tammany methods.
An alderman or councilman or district leader
would appear in behalf Of an offender, and
when Mr.. Herman gave him satisfaction the
same political influences would follow the case
10 the Corporation CounseTs Office. The result
was almost invariably the same. The Offenders
rarely got what they deserved IN the way or
punishment
A Bowery lodging house keeper who violated
the Health Department laws and against Whom
action brought by Mr. Cosby kept try
ing 10 work the political game until Dody exc
cutton was issued against him, when he PAID ms
1ne OF 500. Under Tammany the violations OF
the snow and ice regulation usually dragged
along until July and August. when prosecution
for allowing ice to remain on a sidewalk I'M
pressed the court farcicaI Now they are be-
Ing tried within thirty days Of the time the COM
plant is filed
The records in 8Ir. Rives's Office show that
last year eleven thousand actions were begun
by Mr.. Whalen's staff for the recovery Of PEN
code but that the recoveries numbered just
four.
