DESIRE POLICE POWER.
New Patrol Company Makes Request
of Commissioners


The Washington Patrol Conpany has
been organized with r. P Andrews as
president and w H. Rapley vice president
and E. E. Rapley, John Herbert Corning.
E. j. Kelly and Alex. Lagree the Wash
ington directors. The object of the COM
pany Is to maintain a patrol service with
uniformed officers. This force will consist
of superintendent. sergeants and privates
and will be modelled after a similar patrol
which, it is said. has been very successful
in Baltimore. The duties of the EMPLOYEES
will be to patrol sections of the city and
see to 1t that property is not disturbed
They will be particularly useful in case Of
large fires that threaten to spread from
one business house to another The patrol
men will communicate promptly with the
owners of all the establishments in the
neighborhood. In that way the owners will
be able to respond Immediately and save
valuable papers and other valuable prop
erty. Officers of the company yesterday
afternoon held conference with the Com
missioners, and asked that employees of
the company be commissioned additional
privates of the police department. The re-
quest was taken under advisement
The force, according to those at the head
of the organization, will be more of a fire
patrol than a police enterprise. Patrolmeu
will be on duty In the day, holidays and
Sundays. There Is no intention 1t is ex-
planned, to interfere with the Night Watch
mems Association. The members of that
association are invested with police au-
thority and patrol the streets at night.
They care for private property and are
paid by private subscription.
The members of the Washington Patrol
Company have in mind a man to serve as
superintendent of their force who has made
a success of similar force elsewhere and
they hope, with his aid and the knowledge
of the work to be accomplished, that ere
long the capital city will have model pa
troll for the purposes outlined.
