TITUS IN WALSH'S DISTRICT.
Movements in Tenderloin Start Report of
Transfers of Inspectors.

1t is believed by those familiar with Tcnderloin
police subjects that the long talked Of remova! Of
Inspector Richard Walsh from the Fourth Inspec-
ton District Is about to take place and that he Is
to be succeeded by Inspector George Titus This
conviction was brought about yesterday by In
spector Walsh going away on a few days leave OF
absence and Inspector Titus being put I'm his place.
This in Itself would not be considered suspicious
but the usual substitute for Inspector Walsh is
Inspector Mclaughlin who IS accustomed to fulfil
his temporary duties in perfunctory manner
inspector Titus began his trick in the district on
the other hand, by long conference with CAPTAIN
Cottren and a thorough inspection Of all parts of
the TenderlOin This coupled with the recent rela-
tons of Captain Cottrel and Inspector Walsh
makes 1t probable that there is 10 be a change Of
