JERSEY CITY COPS TRANSFERRED
Chief Murphy Hopes a Change or Air viii
Benent Their Eyes.

The stereotyped police phrase trans
ferred for the good of the service" was
amended Yesterday by Chief Benjamin
Murphy of Jersey City as follows, and
with the hope that the change of air will
benefit their eyesight."
The Chief ordered the transfer Of Ser
geants Thomas Howell, Thomas Finnie
and William Duffy of the First precinct,
in the lower part of the city. to the Sixth
precinct, in the Hudson City section, where
the air is bracing, and sent Sergeants John
Cannon, William Schober and George
Murphy from the Sixth to take their places
in the downtown precinct. He also trans
ferred Patrolmen John Quinn and Michael
Faherty from the First to the Sixth and
Patrolmen Patrick o Donnell and Walter
Skiff from the Seventh to the First.
The Chief recently ordered raids on
saloons f~reQuented by women, and head.
quarters men cleaned out two places in
the First precinct on posts patrolled by
Quinn and Faherty. The two cops and the
First precinct sergeants testified at the
hearing that they had never seen women
20 into the saloons, and the Chief said that
he concluded that their sight must be poor.
He said that the Sixth precinct men had
raided a saloon in their territory without
any assistance from headquarters. and CON-
sequently he decided they would fill the bill
in the 10 wntown precinct.

SHIP WATCHED FOR STOWAWAY,
Palister's Friends. However. Think He
Has Committed Suicide.


Officers of the White Star Line have posted
guards around the steamship Baltic, which
arrived yesterday from Liverpool, to pre-
vent the escape Of William Pallister, a
former steward of the line, who slowed
himself away when the ship left the other
side. They believe that he intended to
sneak ashore fSom the Baltic and go aboard
the Republic, which left yesterday afternoon
for the Mediterranean.
Many of the passengers and most OF the
stewards of the Baltic, however, say that
P~allister jumped overheard on Thursday
morning A note found pinned to his
punk in the forecastle read: The game is
up. I've had my fling and In off," A
steward declared that he had seen Pallister
near the rail early Thursday morning.
The ships officers, however, are inclined
to be sceptical about the suicide. They
think it was a blind to make Pallister's
escape easy when the ship reached this
side. They say that he was seen Thursday
night by two of the stewards.
The stowaway until a few weeks ago
was a steward in the employ of the White
Star Line. When he lost his job, he spent
several weeks in Liverpool trying to, find
something to do. Being unsuccessful, he
determined to come to this side and catch
the Republic, where several of his friends
were working. Soon after the Baltic left
Liverpool the stowaway was discovered
and put to work trimming coal.
