FINANCE BOARD CONTROLS.
Mayor studley Says Police Board
 Can't Fix Salaries.

The statement of Louis Ullman president of the board of police com missioners, before the board of finance Monday night, in which he announced that all the increases specined m the department estimates will be put in force by the commissioners and that the appropriation must be granted by the board of finance in accordance with the city charter, caused considerable comment to-day about city hall.
 Mayor Studiey, when asked concern ing the matter yesterday morning stat ed: "The police commissioners havo the right the sdme as any other de- partment to fix the salaries of their employees as the amount they think should be paid for their work. Then the board of finance has the power to appropriate for salaries in this depart ment the amount deemed best. If the police commissioners fix the salaries of officers at $2.50 a day. and the board of finance only allow S2 a day for an office, s2 a day is all the officer will get Then again the board of police commissioners cannot use the total amount of the money appropriated for the salary account and request an ad- ditional appro priation with which to run the department,
 "In case the board of finance should appropriate a certain amount of money to be used for salaries by the police commissioners. which was not as large as they requested, or not large enough for the board to grant the increases promised the men in the departmen, and they desireto use money from some of the other accounts for the salary account, the commissioners are obliged to apply to the board of finance for Q transfer of the amount desired from some other accounts to the salary ac- count and In this case if the board of finance thought best not to grant the transfer. which is in the power of the board of finance, the men promised the increase by the board of fire com
 missioners would fail to get the in crease, be cause there would be no money in the department available foi the purpose. Although the city charter gives the board the power to fix the salaries the board of finance has the power to say how much money will be appropriated for the various accounts and I do not see how the police board could use money for salaries that Is not on the salary account.
