SERGEANT BUNNER
HONOREO BY FORCE

ment Completes Forty Years
in Active Service

Three resounding cheers from a hun
dred masculine throats fairly shook the
building Of the Bush street police sta
tion yesterday afternoon, and their vi
brations thrilled the heart of Sergeant
Stephen Bunner, IN whose honor they
were given. The occasion was the
completion of his 40 years of service
In the police department, and the vet
eran, whom Captain Gleeson feelingiy
referred 20 as the grandfather OF the
department" was deeply affected by
the whole hearted tribute which was
rendered.
Sergeant Bunner was taken by sur
prise He had assumed his customary
place at the head of his command
which was to be relieved, when Cap
tain Gleeson began to read communi-
cation from Chief of Police Cook. It
was the congratulations of the head
of the department to Sergeant Bunner
on his long term OF faithful service,
and as Gleeson proceeded the sturdy
old man was visibly touched. Lieu
tenant J. II. Lewis then reas a eulogy
by Captain Gleeson, and as he called
for three cheers two immense floral
pieces were brought in

ROME, April 1o.--A local newspaper
has published a sensational article
criticising severely the condition of the
Italian navy. 1t says the new warshin
NapoH can not make more than six

that grave defects have been discovered

It is probable that Hoods Sar-

for sufferers from loss of appetite

Its remarkable record of cures of

could be more agreeable to she Stan
dard oil company than to have this
duty remain in the bill, after all the
fuss that has been made by congress-
men to satisfy their constituents de-
mands that they should give that COR
poration a. big jolt.
Sinister Motives Suggested
To say that the discovery created
a sensation today among house men,
bers is to trif1e with the precise frame
of mind in which they found them
selves. Some members contended that
the inclusion of refined petroleum in
the free list would put the products
of petroleum there, too, but treas
ury officials say that such conclu-
sion is childish. Others go so far as
to attribute sinister motives to the
men whom they hold responsible for
the mistake.
When Chairman Payne was asked
this evening for an expression of opin-
ion on the question, he replied that
under the construction of the courts
heretofore it undoubtedly would be
held that refined. petroleum" included
the products of petroleum. This con-
clusion is not sustained. however, by
thes opinion of treasury officials and
tariff experts.
