WARREM's CHIEF
Of POLICE TO
HAVE HEARING

DR.. T. G. Morriseau OF Warren re-
quested the town council yesterday to
dismiss Chief of Police Edward G..
Macomber, alleging that the officer
used insulting language to him and put
him out of the police station Saturday
evening. Augg g. when the petitioner
was attending a patient who was under
detention by the police.
Chief Macomber made a reply before
the council, claiming that he did not
call DIR. Morriseau opprobrious names.
In discussing the matter he said that
he was in a pleasant mood. averring
repeatedly that he used no epithets.
Another hearing will be given the
chief.
The trouble grew out OF the case
of Mary Banville. the woman who was
found unconscious and with shocking
evidences OF mistreatment last Thurs
day-ereHiHg on the-baHks the
Kickemuit river in the town OF War
rem. Four men are under arrest at the
Bristol county jail. three Of them
charged with assaulting her.
DR.. Nelson r. Hall of Warren was
called to attend the woman Thursday
evening and the next day DIR. Nor
riseau was called. IL is claimed. on
the ground that DIR. Hall was called
out OF town. and the woman needed
medical attention.
The dispute regarding which OF the
physicians should treat the woman
grew out OF an apparent conflict OF
authority, some Of the officials calling
for the services Of DR. Hall and
others for those of DR.. Morriseau.
The petition in typewriter form
was read by Town Clerk G. r. Mason,
with Dr. Morriseau, Chief OF Police
Macomber and several persons in the
council chamber. The petitioner in
substance made specific charges that
the officer used vile language and or
dered him out of the building when
the petitioner claimed he was attend
ing his patient and did not wish her
removed at the time.
DR. Morriseau. in support OF the petit
tion, told of the condition in which he
found Mary Banville when he saw her
Friday. Her pulse was at 120 and she
was weak and had fainting spells as a
result OF her injuries.
Chief Macomber says he was ordered
by the town council to remove the
woman from the police station to n
hospital for better care and IL was
while he was getting ready TO carry
out such order that he met Dr. Nor
riseau.
At this point President J. u. Hoar
and Clerk G. II. Mason related circum-
stances I'm which there was severe pub
lie criticism OF the plan OF Keeping
the injured woman at the police sta
tion, where Il was alleged proper care
could not be given.
Councilman Henry II. Potter said ne
suggested that the overseer OF the
poor be called TO provide necessary
comfort for the sick woman. and al
the same time DIR. Morriseau was asked
TO see the woman.
Council President Hoar said the
AFFAIR was a bad mess"

COMMITTEE TO
LOOK INTO KICK
Of JACK TARs

New York, Aug. 6-The jack tars OF the
United States navy have made such a
mighty protest against the time honored
headgear and blouses they wear ashore
and on dress occasions aboard ship that
TO meet the clamor OF the enlisted men
the navy department has appointed a COM
mission 20 decide on changes in their uni
forms. Capt. Hugo Osterhaus, commander
OF the battleship Connecticut. is chair
man OF this committee. Capt. Osterhaus
has sent out a statement to the captains
OF all warships In the service asking for
suggestions. The enlisted men are desi-
rous of obtaining coats and visor caps.
Many OF them want the wide-fiaring
trousers, the world-round immemorial cut
peculiar to sailormen changed into the or
dinary pattern.
But the chief grievance OF the sailors
relates to the blouse and the old fashioned
pancake caps. These caps are said by all
seamen TO be absolutely useless on a
windy day as they ca'xaot be kept on the
head. They afford no shade to the eyes
and seem to exist merely as a relic OF the
past.
The protest over the blouse is considered
well justified in the navy. In the first
place the seamen object TO the wide col
lar which blows up around their ears on
windy days. They want shorter necker-
chiefs and coats cut like those OF the
marines. Should the sailors demands be
granted, II will be the first time In the
history OF the American navy that seamen
have worn coats
The proposed uniform changes will af-
feet the 10000 seamen in the navy and
will entail large outlay. 1t is believed
the change in the trousers will not be
made at once, but that the jack tars will
be supplied with coats and visor caps.
