POLICE BOARD WILL
ASSEMBLE TO-DAY

The Board Of Police Commissioners
Will meet this afternoon in regular bust
ness session. The eyes Of the city are
now turned upon this body, and their
possible action on the various questions
that are and are alleged to be before II
is the absorbing topic Of conversatI ton on
the streets and wherever two or three
are gathered together.
The meeting to-day WILL however. not
be interesting to tie general public un-
less the unexpected happens. One OF the
commissioners stated yesterday that
none Of the interesting topics would
come up at the board meeting to-day.
The meeting is simply for the conduct
OF regular business.
The charges against Captain Angle, It
is said, will be considered at meeting
that will be held one day next week.
So far as can be learned, Captain An
gle has not secured counsel, and he win
probably wait until he has the specifi-
cations Of the charges before he does SO.
There were no new Developments
yesterday In the rumors about re-
organization of the police department
Those who made the statement that
there would be an earnest effort made
to put the force on military basis still
insist that this is 80. and they are
equally as positive In their assertions
that there are to be changes among the
high officials OF the department.
