Captain William ]. O'Connor was elect
ed to the vacant inspectOrship. Mr..
O'Connor has been prominent in detec-
tive work in this city.

week ago tonight. Accompanied by
Ave detectives he entered The World
newspaper ONCE OF J. NJ. Leceque who
had that day published an editorial
calling him opprobrious names. The

leased on bond. His trial for nIalfeas-
ance was set before the Board Of Po-
lice Commissioners for next Friday.
