and read as follows:
1--WE favor the reelection OF George
Peabody Wetmore OF Newport as

mend that the Republicans elected TO

him for that office"
Col. Tillinghast said he presented the
resolution for the purpose of getting the

for the resolution. When he was asked
by FORMER Colt man what would be the
attitude OF the Republican league OF
Rhode Island toward the Republican party
in case the state committee decided not TO
dndorse Wetmore. he said IL would not
make much difference as the league had
very little strength in the country towns.
Col. Gross Thought that the time was

that more time should be taken In order

Washington, July 1.-Stirred up by the
repeated stories OF the gay life of her
husband, Lieut.. Col. Tucker, ". S. A,
led for two years in the Philippines, Mrs.
William +. Tucker, daughter of Mrs.
John A. Logan, marched into the office
OF Secretary Taft Saturday and demand-
ed an official investigation OF his con-
duct Army officers are ciose-mouthed on
the subject, but 1t is intimated that big
scandal may result from certain repre-
sentations which Mrs. Tucker has made
concerning her husband.
The charges which have been filed with
the war department against Col. Tucker
bring to mind the rumors circulated some
time ago regarding Gen. John j. PERISH
ing. Col. Tucker returned TO this country
In May last He was preceded by stories
OF his devotion to a woman not his wife
and one yarn had IL that he was infatua-
ted with a Filipino belle. He was also
pictured as making love to an American
woman engaged as school teacher in one
OF the Filipino schools.
Secretary Taft feels strongly against
such ''skylarking" with confiding Filipino
beauties as Col. Tucker is alleged TO have
been guilty OF. Mrs. Tucker. does too, ac-
cording to the belligerent air she had

JAPANESE ARE
BECOMING VERY
MUCH |NCENsED

Toxic July 1.-The impression is grow
ing here that the anti-Japanese feeling
and demonstrations i'm San Francisco are
the outcome OF a deeply-laid plan based
upon racial hatred. and the recent de-
yelopments apparently support this Inn
preston.
The newspapers here which had special
correspondents OF American nationality
in san Francisco have ceased to receive
news from them. No explanation was Of
fered for the discontlnuance OF news dis
patcncs. but the impression here Is that
pressure was brought to bear on the cor
respondents in San Francisco not TO serve
the Japanese papers. The fear is ex-
pressed that the danger point will soon be
reached.
Although war Is not dreamed OF. the
mutual feelings OF good Will and friend

POLICE COMMISSION ASKS
FOR So MORE OFFICERS

partment must be confined strictly to the
amount appropriated by your honorable
body, the board has refrained from add
ing TO the number of patrolmen and con-
sequently Is unable 10 provide the addi-
tional police protection so frequently
urged.
After a careful investigation on the
part OF the captains of police as TO the
needs in their respective districts the
board find that an addition of sixty-three
63) patrolmen will be required to proper
ly patrol all sections of the city. This
would provide for creating new beats in
every district and thus shortening all the
long beats which are now inadequately
patroled In order TO make this addition
the board would require an additional
appropriation OF Sl2, 500 25 for the present
fiscal year, the annual cost OF this in
crease i'm the number OF patrolmen be-
ing. for the first year, $52,s3375.
In making this request the board de-
sires to impress upon your honorable
body the necessity OF placing this depart
ment in a position TO take care OF any
emergency that may arise and accede to
the wishes of citizens and other depart
ments of the municipal government for
protection in special cases, as In public
parks, summer schools, and outlying dis
tricts, where hoodlums occasionally con-
gregate TO the annoyance OF property
owners and the public generally.
The board trusts that your honorable
body will give immediate attention TO its
request and that funds may be provided
for the increase as above stated.
Respectfully submitted,
WIN III. LUTHER, Chairman.
BY order OF the board.

Sixty-three additional police officers
and an appropriation of ,sl2, ,sse5 to pay
the salaries OF the officers for the ball
ance of the fiscal year. should the city
council vote TO increase the police force
by that number OF men, were asked for
in petition sent by the police commits
sioners TO the city council today.
The following is the text OF the peti-
ton which sets forth the reasons OF the
commissioners in asking for the seeming
ly large Increase:
Office of the Board OF Police Commits
sioners,
l6l Fountain street. June 2S. 1907
To the Hon. the City Council of Provi-
dence:
Gentlemen-The undersigned, the board
Of police commissioners for the city of
Providence. respectfully call your atten-
ton to the requirements OF the police de-
partment, and request that immediate ac-
ton be taken TO provide funds for in
creasing the numerical strength of the
force TO the end that the city may be
properly patrolled. At the present time
the number OF officers I'm the department
is entirely inadequate TO enable the board
TO give that protection which the. citizens
require and are constantly demanding by
verbal request and by petition.
With the present appropriation the
board regrets its inability TO provide Of
ficers to properly patrol large sections
in the outlying districts In these sections
the beats travelled by officers are very
long and complaints are frequently made
at this office. by property owners, that
police Officers are seen too infrequently.
Feeling that the expenditures of the de-
