WEAPONS GO INTO SEA.
Police Dispose of Years Collection {


A law passed by the last Legisla
ture of New York says that the wea
pons collected by the police must be
destroyed. Heretofore they have
been disposed of each year at auction
by the property clerk. Crooks that
looked upon their guns or knives as
heirlooms had only to wait for the
annual auction sale to recover their
pets
This year the police department de
cided to throw them all into the ocean
and there were 1000 revolvers, knives,
cane swords, stilettoes, brass knuek
les and the bric-a brac of the under
world on the boat Patrol when it left
the Battery. 1t took two wagons to
cart thirty six boxes containing the
weapons from police Headquarters to
the police pier.
Nov we will drop these things 80
they will never come up" said Com
missioner Bingham when the patrol
was off Sandy Hook. He told Skip
per Dryer to lay course to the east
ward, and the harbor squad cops be-
gan to throw weapons over the rail.
revolver with pearl handle went
first. 1t didn't make IA much fuss as
when woman of the Tenderloin took
shot at another with it. A long
barreled gun that had made big
noise IN II tong fight in Chinatown
followed next and made something of
a splash.
The Patrol made "A half circular
sweep of about three miles before the
entire stock had been thrown over
board,
Most of the weapons thrown iuto the
sea were collected when Commission
er Bingham sent squads of sleuths TO
frisk the Italians aud Chinese. 1t is
estimated that the weapons cost in the
neighborhood of $4,000 Some of the
weapons contiscated escaped watery
grave. They were so interesting that
Commissioners Bingham ordered them
put away until the new Police Head
quarters building is finished, when
they will SO into the museum that is
to be established i'll the new building.
Among the things saved are several
canes that are really long harreled re-
volsers. They were taken in raids on
Italian saloons.
