COney Island Is to Be Reformed
A Coney Island without Sunday beer,
without the festive but ear-splitting
merry go-round, without the ''shelP' man,
the gold-brick man, the peter man and
others Of that ilk, and without the concert
hall girl in short skirts, is promised If
Commissioner Partridge's plan goes
through.
He wants to rehabiIitate Coney Island,
beginning with the opening of the season,
anu keep it mice" throughout the year.
Naturally he counts on his department to
do this.
The scheme was unfoIded to the police
outlined in an order sent to every cap
tain on the force, and read to the men
IN all the stations before they went out
on duty.

missioner Partridge does not wish to I'M
pose any hardships on men living at a
distance from Coney Island, and for this
reason he issued the call for volunteers
who live near enough to the resort to be
able to work there and still be in touch
with their --omes.
Accompanying the order was a personal
letter to the captains. In this letter Com
missioner Partridge said he wanted only
good men. They must be sober, diligent
and willing, to do police duty without fear
or favor, ne intimated. He made it dis
tinctly understood that the Coney. Island
volunteer brigade must be of the
finest"
1t is with this brigade that Commission
er Partridge intends to clean up the
Island. He wants the resort, as well as
the BoWery and Tenderloin, to be SO re
formed that no stigma shall attach longer
TO any of the three places.
senator Tim Sullivan caused the busy
Democratic bird of harmony to take a
hlSh perch when he returned from ALBANY
and announced that David B. Hill would
name the next candidate for governor.
that nobody was hunting for Nixon's
scalp, that it would be a walk-over for
the Democrats this fall and that everv
thing was beautiful in the Democratic
camp. He also ventured the prophecy
that Bird S. Coler would be the next
democratic candidate for governor and
that he would win.
me TACT that Sullivan recognizes David
3. Hill as state leader is a sure sign that
something has been gong on in the inner
party councils since Mr.. Croker left. Sunh
an admission while Mr.. Croker was in tha
country from Tammany leader would
have been treason. 0''iO
he added that Nixon is the leader of
da1nmany and will be SO indefinitely 90
