DENOUNCE CHICAGO POLICE
Immense Mass Meeting Held at Which
Speeches Were Made. Denouncing
Chicago Justice MS Ridiculous
and Police as Bullies.

CHICAGO. Nov. -penouncing
the Chicago police as "bulles and
tyrants." and Chicago justice as RI
diculous," the recently formed Hebrew
Protective Association announced last
night its determination to abandon d.
rect appeal to the police department
In cases OF Jew batting" and conduct
Its fight by vigilance committee meth
ods.
Details OF the associations plans
were reported TO the Jews OF the Ghet-
to at mass meeting held at the West
Side auditorium. Nearly a quarter OF
the audience was made up OF the al
legged victims Of rowdyism.
Some had their heads swathed In
bandages. Others limped or carried
crutches All were eager to lay their
cases before the organization and OBJ
tain Its aid. To this end everyone
talked at once until the meeting broke
up In disorder from sheer excess OF
enthusiasm.
The association Is preparing to con-
duct campaign almost wholly inde-
pendent of the city authorities. A
private detective force IL to be or
ganized. made up partly of amateurs
and partly OF men, from detective
agencies. A medical staff will be
formed to care for victims Of riots
without charge and n legal department
will collect evidence and conduct
prosecutions. .-....
To aid the Jews who are unable to
give the police satisfactory accounts
of themselves and are detained for
this reason each member OF the as
sociation Is to be known by n number
and badges bearing this number and
the telephone number OF the associa-
ton will be worn.
More than twenty cases OF Jews In
iured or robbed were laid before the
executive committee Of the association
at a session held at the close Of the
mass meeting.

government Is in good hands. There
are about forty native governors OF as
many different provinces. They are
serious and intelligent men, and at
the recent conference held in Manila
they showed themselves to understand
the conditions in the islands. While
all these governors but one are natives.
they all speak and understand Eng
lish.
From an economic standpoint, how
ever. the islands are not In what
would call good condition. This Is
occasioned by the fact that there Is
no market for their sugar and tobac-
co. These, OF course. are their prin-
cipal staples. They, however. have
a good market for copra and abaka,
and from these they gain their main
revenue"

BROOKLYN BRIDGE.
Plans Made for Entire Rebuilding OF
Bridge.

NEW YORK, Nov. 27.--The daily
crush Of the Brooklyn Bridge is re-
ceiving the earnest attention Of May
or Mcclellan and other city officials
At a conference yesterday important
plans for temporary and permanent
relief were discussed. Longer trains
and increased headway, 1t Is expected,
will bring temporary relief.
Plans for permanent relief include
an almost entire rebuilding of tho
bridge. Double backing viii probably
be resorted to In order to make room
for additional lines Of railroad tracks.
The engineers have Informed the May
or that the stress on the anchor bars
Is only one-third of their capacity
and that the double decking of the
structure Is entirely feasible. This
form Of relief, however, will be a mat
ter Of years.
Disgraceful scenes at the terminal
during what are known as rush hours
have led to strong public demand for
relief from prevailing conditions.
