MAY BE CALLED MEETING.
Police Commission VIII Probably Have
 Session for Installing Wler.

It seems probable that called meeting of the police commission will be held this week in order that the chief-elect, Will liam E. Wier, may be sworn Into office and take charge of the department. The annual, meeting of the Association of Chiefs of Police of America meets In New Orleans early next week and Chief Wier was last night allowed slOo ex- penses to attend that meeting, therefore he will have to be installed in office be- fore that time.
 It is supposed that if the meeting is called nothing will be done except install Captain Wier. although the annual cleo ton of the patrolmen may possibly take place. Chairman Rudulph has not yet called the meeting. and he stated last night that he did not know whether there would be meeting.
