FOR NEW PATROL SYSTEM
BINGHAM Has Plan Which He May
Spring on Policemen Thursday.

1t became known at Police Headquarters yester-
day that General Bingham had decided 10 start a
new system Of patrol TO take the place of the old
two-platoon system, which he returned TO when he
found that the three-platoOn system was entirely
inadequate for the protection OF the city at night
The three platoon system, tried with disastrous
results by the late Colonel Michael c. Murphy IN
Mayor Van wycks last year OF Office. and tried
again in the first term OF Mayor Mcclellan, kept
the same number of patrolmen on post in the day
time in the nighttime. The posts Were so long
that the protection afforded by the police at night
snnall.
The twO-platcon system keeps practically half
the entire patrol force on duty from p. m TO
midnight and the other half post from midnight
20 m, the platoon which is not patrol be-
ing held in reserve the police stations The day
patrol force IS MIL reduced. General Bingham Il
IS known, has been trying TO get a system which
would keep the night patrol force strong enough 10
be effective and yet give easier hours TO the pa
trolnen. He declined yesterday 10 talk about his
new system but other officials In Mulberry street
said II would go into effect Thursday

VOTE COUNTING DEAR.
Mutual Life Under an Expense or

BECAUSE of the great expense entailed by sne

rates and charge them 20 the company. The
system used is so complicated that IL will be
two months more before the work is done. Not
more than 10000 OF the $4,000 ballots have
been counted.
The challengers OF the international commit

which are apparently forgeries. Several In

Farmer Crushed to Death.

Gunder Syer, a homesteader,
who was working on a threshing
machine about six miles south
east of Wibaux was crushed be-
tween the engine and separator
and instantly killed last Saturday
evening.
Just how this terrible accident
occurred remains a mystery to all
who were present. The facts of
the case, as near as we can learn
from the information received,
are, that Syre was laying on the
ground holding the tongue Of the
separator up while the engine
was being backed up to it; there
being a sort of straw-tender at
tached to the back part of the
engine, which made it necessary
for Syre to lay down in order to
make this coupling, and in so do
ing he, in some manner, got in
front Of the tongue, and when
the engine came back he was
crushed to death.
Coroner Neil Stuart arrived on
the first train from Glendive af-
ter the report reached him, and
he in company with Sheriff Wynn
drove out to the machine where
the accident occurred, to hold an
inquest, but, upon their arrival,
they learned that the body had
been removed to Beach at 2 p m.
Sunday, and whether or not for
interrment we are unable to say,
but we understand that his par
ents reside in South Dakota.
