MAJOR SYLVESTERS SCHOOL FOR POLICE'

He VIII the Recruits and Then Bicycle
Enforcing Regulations in effect August 29.

A course of study will be inaugurated
next week at Police Headquarters which
in its effect, Will be the antithesis of

known as the Police School," and is
designed to instruct the newly appoint
ed members of the force in the respon-
sible duties they will have to perform,
and the members of the bicycle squad
the best manner in which to enforce the
regulations of the new code governing
the use and abuse OF automobiles. which
goes into effect on August 90.
In ell. twenty men have been ap-
pointed to the police force since July 1.
These will constitute the primary class,
and, having had the corners knocked of
them by the privates, sergeants and
lieutenants of the various precincts,
will now come before the Major for
final instructions. The major, as pre-
ceptor, will lecture to them on the diff
ference of conduct required in making
arrests for misdemeanors from that re-
quired in arresting for felonies, when
and how they are entitled to use the
club and revolver, the rights to enter a
house TO make an arrest, when an arrest
may be made without Witnessing the Of

class of second year" men will
also be organized These men will be
drilled in the police regulations and
manual, with a view to perfecting their
knowledge of these rules of conduct,
and the ultimate view of advancing
those who prove the best qualified.
After much opposition, agitation, and
a hard legal fight, the new regulations
governing the use of automobiles in the
District Will go into effect Saturday, Au-
gust 29. 1t has been contended by the
owners of the horseless vehicles that
these regulations would be applied in
such way as to work great hardship
TO them, and there have been those who
have asserted that the individual mem
bers Of the force would take advantage
of the supervision given them by the
law to force their presence on helpless
women operators. to their great embar-
rassment. 1t Is Major Sylvester's deter
mination that no reasonable protests
shall be necessary. He, therefore, Will
have before him. at various times, all of
the sixty members OF the bicycle squad.
He will expound fully the nature. ex-

The men will be informed that the aim
of the law Is not to perseeute the own
eTs and operators of horselcss vehicles.
but only to prevent their disregarding
the lives and safety of the less fortu-
nate habitual pedestrians.
Wien it IS known that the men have
thoroughly grasped the purposes of the
law ;hey will be sent forth with instruc-
tions to arrest and prosecute every yio-
lator, but in no case to persecute the
automobilist. They will be told that
their evidence of a violation must be
incontroyertible in order that the atti-
tude of the police on this question may
from the first be recognized as both con-
sistent and dignified.

Will have busy time OF IL for week
or two. Having just returned from St.

TRYING TO IDENTIFY
ROCKVILLE SUSPECT
Supposed Murderer of Kate
Jordan, of Hillsdale.
THE POLICE STILL IN DOUBT
Man Answering Description of Wo-
mans Slayer Now in Jail-Made
Contradictory Statements.

Whether or not George washington"
the queer and queer -ting negro, now
in the Rockville Jail, is the murderer of
Kate Jordan, the Hillsdale negro for
tune teller. is the question now agitating
the police. In order to settle the mat
ter definitely those witnesses who saw
the murderer leaving the vicinity of the
crime will tomorrow be taken to Rock
Vile by Detective Muller and brought
face to face with the man to see IL they
can identify him.
There are several reasons for sus-
pecting the man. In the first place. from
the time of the murder. the police have
been on the lookout for a supposed
Italian. who has figured in the case as
"the Dago." 1t was learned from
brother-in in-law of the murdered woman
that number of years ago a man sup
posed to be an Italian had associated
with her. and had threatened her with
dire consequences should she cast him
of.
Feigned Insanity.
When, therefore, 1t was learned that
a supposed Italian was hiding in the
woods of Montgomery county, Nd, oc-
.casionally appearing and frightening
people, many trips were made to that
neighborhood with a view to effecting
his capture.
The man who was driven into Gath
ersburg from hunger, while a negro. is
of most peculiar appearance. His col
or is light, his hair curly instead CT
kinky. and he has not the fiat nose OF
thick lips Of the ordinary negro. He ut
first pretended to be a mute. and also
feigned insanity. This deception he
kept up consistently, until frightened
into speech by Detective Muller yester-
day afternoon, who visited the Rock
Vile Jail TO see what could be learned
from the man. Once he mad spoken he
talked readily enough. and said numer-
Gus thing which were highly signif-
cart-
Some Damaging Admissions.
He gave his name as George Washing,
ton. and said he was a native of Wins
ton. n. c.. but that he had formerly
lived in Washington. He admitted know
ing a woman in Anacostia, named Kate,
but denied knowledge of her last name.
He also said he had had trouble with
the woman. and that he had thrown
away a knife which he had possessed.
Then. seeming to realize the drift of
his remarks. he pulled himself togeth-
err denied the statements he had made.
interpolated a lot OF foolish and con-
Trajectory statements, and again as
sumed the role of a lunatic. II is a
mooted point in the minds of the au-
thorities whether he is really insane or
not, and on the settlement of this point,
and the completeness of the proposed
Identification, will depend future action
toward the man.
