BROOKLYN POLICE SCARE.
Rumor of Manhattan PLAIN Clothes
Hen Shuts Lid.

The lid" was in Brooklyn yesterday. though
not exactly screwed down, and Is not likely 70 be
raised much for some time. The police Of that
borough are in something akin to a panic. and are
not likely to take any chances. Commissioner Nc
Adoo's talk with the inspectors on Wednesday and
his statement that he would give considerable at
;en,lon TO Brooklyn for the present have made
them extremely cautious.
An illustration of the nervous state OF the police
IS shown by their credence Of a rumor on Saturday
Adoo City plain clothes from Manhattan were
TO invade Brooklyn a. midnight to how strictly
the excise law being enforced. The captains
lost no time in sending the word around their pre-
ciucts that all saloons must observe the law and
close UP promptly at midnight. This done. and
Il was harder get drink in the earlier hours OF
yesterday morning than 1t has been since the first
Of The year.
If there were any Manhattan sleuths operating IN
Brooklyn they cid not make their presence known
Not a single excise arrest had been reported up to
yesterday afternoon. The salOOnkeepers, however,
were extremely cautious during the day, and re-
ceved additional warnings through police chan
Hels. There were reports from several quarters
that strange looking men had been seen hanging
Ground. and the conclusion was reached that some
OF McAdUOs men were observing conditions IL
make arrests. but with the idea Of getting infOrma-
tion for future use. The police captains are pretty
wei imhucd with the idea that Mr.. McAooO means
business and will not be trifCd with. go
This week it is probable that handbook men viii
be exceedingly scarce so long as MCAdOO is eNer-
CisiuE personal supervision over police affairs in
Brooklyn this condition Of affairs Is likely TO exist
