Deplorable Condition Of the
Police Department Under

tration
LAX DISCIPLINE EVERYWHERE

An incident going to show that there
is more or less laxity in the police de
partment nowadays occurred last Satur-
day night when call was received at
the Fourth precinct station house for
the patrol wagon to convey eolored
man. who had been injured IN the head,
to the City Hospital.
Samuel Stanley, driver of the patrol
wagon, couldn't be found anywhere, and
it was necessary for Patrolman frank
Lynch to take charge of the wagon.
D This fact is verified By men at the
station house at the time who say that
the driver wasn't really lost, as he was
found subsequently asleep in bed. This
discovery was made after the patrol
wagon was on its way to the hospital
THE News" was informed to-day that
the colored man, although suffering from
a scalp wound, took the reills from the
hands of the patrolman and guided the
horse to the hospital.
He knew more about the management
of horses than the officer, it is said, and
was in a big hurry to have his wound
dressed. That's why he volunteered to
perform the work prescribed for the
patrol driver.
A sergeant at the Fourth precinct sta
tion house Indignantly denied the story
chat tlNpatient was allowed to drive the
patrol wagon. He said that such thing
wasn't possible. The sergeant was in the
station house while the trip was being
made.
Warden McAndrew. of the City Hos
pital, said this afternoon that coaored
man arrived atsthat Institution in pa
troll wagon Saturday night, and went
home after having a scalp wound dress
ed. He didn't know whether he drove
or not. The Warden did not have 4
record of the case in his office, and could
not tell the colored mans name nor
where he lived.
When a second attempt was made over
the telephone to ascertain some informa-
tion about the colored man, the Warden
said The nurse that took the record
is in bed and asleep now. can not
wake him up. He ought to have sent
the record to me before this, but he
didn't

SASSED THE COURT
But Mrs. Gregor Finally
: Decides to Apologize to
Judge Hoos.

Mrs. Margaret Feldner, of No 23S
Grand street, had her son-in-law, Fred
Gregor, arraigned before Judge Hoos
this morning on charge of assault and
battery. She claimed that he came TO
her rooms asking for his wife, and when
told that she was not there became abu-
sive and struck her with his fist in the
ear and back. Greger denied this and
said the matter was entirely reversed
Judge Hoos was trying to get at the
bottom Of the affair and giving good adj
vice to both parties when Gregor's wife,
who is of large proportions in compari-
son to him, arose in the back of the
court room and called to her mother.
Come OH, come on. I
Mrs Gregor then marched out Of the
court room, slamnling the door behind
her.
Detective Larkin happened to be in
court and when Judge Hoos cried out,
Bring that woman back, ran out and
caught Mrs. Gregor at the corner.
When Mrs. Gregor was brought to
the Judges desk he said: II want you
to apologize to this court for the dis
graceful manner in which you acted and
unless you do will act
Mrs. Glegor asked, What apology
have to make, you don't give her JUS
tice.
Don't give her justice, eh, remarked
the Judge Well, you and your mother

.FACAN FOOLED EN-
Many Men Who Were Prom
ised Positions on the Po-
lice Force Get Left.
NO NEW APPOINTMENTS
Places Will Be Made for a Few
However by Forcing Some
to Retire.

Aspirants for appointments on the .po-
lice force, and there are any number OF
them. will probably be disappointed
when they learn that in spite OF anti
election promises there will be no addit-
ions made to the department for at least
another year. This announcement has
besn made by Republican Commissioner
Mitchell, and the reason he gives is that
the money that was expected to add at
least ten members to the force, was not
Forthcoming by the Board of Finance.
II is doubtful, too if any of s.e ex-
listing vacancies in the department will
be filed for the present. Commissioners
Mitchell however, has not abandoned
hope Of gratifying the ambition of some
Republican workers and he has a scheme
which. If carried to a successful issue,
will land some of them on the force. The
plan, it is said, is to have some of the
older members of the department ask for
retirement; sergeants. roundsmen, detec-
tives and patrolmen are among those who
are to be coaxed or cljoled into seeking
rest If this plan is not baked, Commits
sioner Mitchell, so well informed persons
say,will be able to secure several appoint
nlents between now and December /.
PLACES FOR a FEW.
Either at toniglt's meeting or at the
one to follow, at least two applications
for retirement will be submitted. One
will be from Desk Sergeant Michael
Walsh, at Police Headquarters, who.
having served many years beyond the
requisite limit, wants to be relieved from
active duty.
Roundsman John d. Jackson, of the
Seventh Precinct, also feels that he is
entitled to a rest. He, too has been
member of the Department for more
than the twenty-year limit, and, as Re
publican Commissioner Mitchell wants
all the appointments he can get, it is not
likely the roundsman's request viii be
denied. 1t is certain that Sergeant
Walsh's application for retirement will
be granted.
Walsh is now on his vacation and it
is known at headquarters that his plans
do not call for il return to duty.
Sergeant Thomas Howell, who was
sent from the First precinct to head
quarters TO take Walsh's place, has been
told that he will continue to fill that po-
sition.
DON'T WANT TO RETIRE.
OF the detectives whom Commissioner
Mitchell believes have outlived their use
funoss as members Of the department
are .Tolln Clos and Henry C. Keenan,.
1t is said that they have been told that
applications for retirement will be thank
fully received From what can be
learned neither Of the detectives men

proval aud if they are retired it will not

False Report Of Marriage Of
Parish Leads Him to At
tack Watson.


George Parish, nineteen years old q
No. 242 Baldwin avenue, was fined Slt
by Judge Hoes this morning for ASSAULT
ing Grin L. Wilson, of No. ia York
Street, in the rooms occupied by Mrs. Isl
lu Schwartz of that address, with whom
Parish boarded.
The Watsons, Schwartzs and Parish
were all friends, according to testimony
until a letter was received from Mrs
Watson by Mrs. Schwartz addressed
Mrs. Lulu Schwartz Parish. The letter
was in congratulation of the marriage Of
Mrs. Schwartz and Parish, notice Of
which had ben given to Mrs. Watson BY
her son Grin.
1t seems that the report of the mar
riage was false and Mrs. Schwartz and
Parish became much put out.
Watson called last Tuesday night to
see Mrs. Schwartz in reference to some
other business, and while there was
thrown out and threatened with revoI-
yer by Parish for his part in the circu-
lation Of the wedding story.
Parish claimed that Watson refused
to 60 when ordered to and that he, Par
ish, had the right to throw him out. Par
ish also said he paid the rent as we'll as
board, as Mrs. Schwartz's son was not
working and Parish had been treated
very kindly by the Schwartz some time
ago.
Mrs. Schwartz was also arraigned on
a charge of assault and battery, but was
discharged. She was indignant when on
the stand questioned by Counselor Archi-
bald. VIII Q wished to know all the facts
in referenc eto the trouble.

FINDS Her AUNT.
Aged Woman Lost Her Way SUM
day While Going 10 Church.


Miss Edith Abbott went to the Seventh
street police station this morning and
asked Sergeant Nicholas Toppin if he
could give her any information about
her aunt, Amelia Adams. She said her
aunt, who was seventy-two years old,
left her home last Sunday to go to
church and had not been seen since.
The sergeant communicated with police
headquarters and when he finished giving
description of the aged woman's wear
ing apparel he learned that she was at
the Oakland avenue station. Miss Alb
bott went to claim her aunt.
It is said that Mrs. Adams started
to walk from the Heights down to St.
Michaeps Church, on Ninth street, last
Sunday, lost her way, and became so
frightened she could not remember where
she lived. She was picked up while wan
dering around the streets in the down
town section Of the city.
