POLICEMEN FEEL
THE MAYORS Ak
REORGANIZATION OF ENTIRE De
PARTMENT HAS BEGUN.
Nine Changes in the Uniformed Force
Made Today-Detective Department
to Be Reconstructed April 1--Mayor
Jones Says Chief of Police Doyle Will
Do the housekeeping Alone.

Reorganization of the police DEPART
ment began today. Five men were dis
missed; two officers were reduced to the
ranks and two others promoted. On
the heels of this action taken by Mayor
Jones came the announcement of Chief
of-Police Doyle that the detective force
would be practically reconstructed
April /.
Those dismissed from the uniformed
force are:
George E. Hamilton, patro]man, first
precinct, appointed Jan. 7, 1901.
E. Nlerhaugen, patrolman, second pre-
cinct, appointed December, 1898; dis
charged Jan. Z, 1901; reappointed May
1901.
j. A. Ward, patrolman, second pre-
clnct, appointed 1889; resigned 1894;
|reappointed Aug. 81, 1902.
re eS0e&s a P HsS Patr94 1884, fourth
precincRt, appointed JAM atii /, 1914 ''"'' I'll
j. H. Van Rickley, recently promoted
to lieutenant in the second precinct, is
reduced to sergeant; Sergeant d. NJ.
Townsend promoted to lieutenant in
Van Rickley's place.
Sergeant Paul Mousse is reduced to
potrolman and Odin Void promoted to
sergeant in his place.
AL VI LuCoS CHbuSCo WILL pO SiCCeisC
tomorrow.
The Reorganization of the detective
force has been decided upon by Mayor
| Jones, but the choice of new men to be
appointed and old ones to be released
will be left entirely to Police Super
intendent Doyle. The mayor will not
even make suggestions, and when the
reconstruction is complete he will show
his faith in his superintendent by ap-
proving the work.
1t has been evident to the mayor and
superintendent for some time that some
of the detectives are not up to the
standard and are even inferior to some
of the uniformed men.
! Wrangling has also been prevalent and
jealousy has caused some of the officers
to push themselves before the public
eye i'll too many instances. Questiona
BILE arrests have been made that gooc
showing might be made on the police
records. These are but few of the
charges made.
"Mr. Doyle will have full sway il
the reorganization said the mayor
" for it is purely a technical business
that I know nothing about. No ap
peals either to be appointed or to stay
on the force will be listened to bv me. )

DELEGATES FROM
EIGHTEEN STATES
NATIONAL HARDWARE DEALERS
ASSN. IN SESSION.
Settled Down to Business This After
noon--Will Discuss Trade Condi-
tons and Methods of Improving
Them-Minnesota Plays Prominent
Part in Affairs Of the Organization.

Hardware men from eighteen states
are IN the city today for the annual
convention OF the National Retail Hard
ware Dealers association. The con-
vention is one Of the most important
trade emblies held in the country.
In addition to sixty-fve accredited dele
gates from the various state associa-
cation, large number Of dealers be-
longing to the Minnesota association are
present as visitors.
The minnesota delegation is the larg-
est state delegation in the present CON
Ventlon. The local organization is the
largest as well as one Of the strongest
state ASSOCIATIONS and is represented by
". ri: Tomlinson of lie Sueur; j. F..
Mcclure Of st. Paul; M. S. Mathews of
Casey, "The Hardware Man Of Jor-
dan.'
A session of the convention proper
was not held this morning. The execu-
tive committee met to audit reports of
officers and to consider matters of i'm
portance IN connection with the pres
ent convention. Most of the delegates
and visitors, after visiting about head
quarters in the West hotel, adjourned
in body to the Chamber Of Commerce
to watch the trading in the pit.
At o'clock this afternoon President
w. P. Bogardus of Mount Vernon, Ohio,
called the convention to order. The
convention is strictly a trade meeting
and will discuss only matters of I'M
portance to the hardware dealers of the
country. Much time will be given to
informal discussion of the trade and
methods of improvement. All sessions
will be held in the ordinary at the
West hotel.
?, This evening the delegates will be
the guests of the Commercial club at an
informal dinner. The dinner will be
pheum. Tomorrow the minnesota and
Minneapolis associations will give a
banquet for the delegates at the West
hotel.

LETTER CARRIERS MAY
HOLD CONVENTION HERE

r. James G. Kellar of Cleveland, president
Of the National Letter Carriers associa-
ton, was in the city Monday to see if
the Commercial club, as the representa-
tive business organization of the city,
would offer any inducements to bring the
national convention Of the association to
Minneapolis this summer. ; The conven-
ton is scheduled for Portland, but owing
to some difficulty in securing satisfactory
arrangements there is a possibility that
it may be changed.
President Kellar was in favor of bring
ing the convention to MiRneapolis. While
no action was taken it is probable that the
Commercial club will agree to care for
the meeting if the association decides to
change. There are $4,000 members of the
association, and the delegate body gen.
orally numbers about 1000 In addition
many of the delegates bring their wives
and thousands of visitors take advantage
of the rates offered. The time of meet
ing will be. early In August

CAN'T GET JUDGE
HARRISON'S MAIL
JUDGE LOCHREN RULES ON RE-
QUEST OF NEW RECEIVER.
Claims Against Bankrupt Commission
teeship Promises to Be Hot-Seventy-
six Bank Accounts, Totaling $16,-
862.67, Have Been Found in Seventy
five Cities.

Judge William Lochren, in the United
States district court today, refused to
grant an order compelling the post
office authorities to turn Former Re-
ceiver A. M. Harrison's mail over to
T. II. Salmon, United States receiver
for the Coe Commission company.
Creditors all over the country are
writing Judge Harrison in regard to
claims and other business of the de-
liable information, and the new receiver
wanted to get possession of it. His at
tempt to do so, however, was futile, as
Judge Lochren held that Judge Harri-
son and no one else is entitled to open
letters addressed to him, and that he
also has the right to read letters adj
dressed on the envelop to the Coe Com
mission company and inside to Judge
A. M. Harrison.
The former receivers mail is in
creasing rather than diminishing and,
judging from the amount of the claims
being turned over to him, it appears
that there will be a one sided contest
when the time comes for the creditors
to elect a permanent trustee of the
bankrupt concern. The election will
probably be held within a fortnight.
