POLICE ARE AIDING. IN CASES OF FIRE Each Officer Has List of Alarm
 Boxes BIG IMPROVEMENT NOTED Officers Have Been Furnished With Blanks and They Must Make Dc. tailed Report of All Fires
 On Their Beats.
BIG IMPROVEMENT NOTED

Cooperation between the police and ire departments is developing sure results for the property owners in the city. The policeman now not only keeps his eye on the doors and entrances to business houses, but watches closely for fires. Sur- day George Lyons turned in a fire alarm at Fourteenth street and Avenue A so propmtly that no loss resulted whatever. The department was able to put out the
 flames before they reached any head
 way.
 Yesterday Officer Cornett reported a
 dangerous flue OF Second avenue be-
 tween Twentieth and Twenty-frst streets,
 which in a few minutes might have start
 ed disastrous fire in the old shacks on
 that block Both were commended for their vigilance
 New List Issued. Chief Wier yesterday issued lists of the
 number and location of fire alarm boxes
 to the officers, with instructions that they | make themselves perfectly acquainted l with those on their beats. Later they | will be examined unexpectedly, and the | officer who does not know the number l and location of the boxes will be em- | barrassed.
 The chief Is preparing a. policeman s l report which must be filled out by the l officer the next morning after a fire oc- | CUTS on his beat. It will include the | origin. how discovered, how reported and
 a number of particulars. which will show 1 how well the officer did his duty. | It may be said of the police force. and | has often been by well known citizens,
 that the individual officers are doing bet | ter service right now than ever before in | the history of the department. They are | caring more for the comfort of pedes- trians, doing more personal service, hand l ling the traffic better, keeping sober and
 reporting on and off duty more promptly | than in a long time.
 Great improvement Noted. One of the best officers. who handles 1 the traffic on q central corner, said yes- l terday: "The most noticeable result of
 the rule which has lately been rigidly en- forced against trotting horses across 1 crossings Is the fact that the horses are | becoming trained. While at first they kept up their brisk pace, and had to be
 waived down, l notice that nearly all of
 them stop of their own accord. The dray
 horses drop their ears and enjoy great | rest at the crossing. because they know
 the driver has to stop jerking the lines | and cracking the whip

IL is very mean and despicable thing
TO do" he said, "but / do not know how
we are going TO help IT, II shows a selfish

THE employing OF help is a matter of

necessary by their attendance at the joint

10 the war department, action of an in
teresting character will doubtless follow.
While II Is acknowledged that the Fed
eral government has no legal means to
reach the employers IL has on previous
similar occasions resorted to the weapon
OF publicity which has proved effective
to the extent OF causing much embarrass-
ment 10 the employers.
The method pursued by the department
Is to write a letter TO an employer who
has discharged an employe for absence on
account OF his militia duties. directing his
attention TO the hardship entailed on the
employe and appealing TO his patriotism.
II this should prove inefficient the depart
ment would write sharp letter scoring
the employer and make public this and

ment OF the facts.
