GRAVE ABUSES IN DUKE
CITY POLICE DEPARTMENT

Albuquerque, N. M, Oct. 7.-Grave
the Albuquerque police department
|are made in a supplementary report
of the territorial grand jury present
led to Judge Ira A. Abbott late yester-
dar afternoon. The charges concern
themselves chiefly with the manner
of assessing and collecting fines,
which is declared to be illegal, ar
bitrary and unjust; the process of
assessing costs and the record, as it
is alleged, the absence of record kept
in police court cases.
No indictments were returned by
the grand jury, but 1t is recommend
ed in the supplementary report that
the city council should take imme-
diate action to correct the system of
fines, record and accounting COM
planned of, the report concluding
with the statement that the present
system in the police department is
"a reproach to the administration Of
law"
The jury was occupied with the
police department investigation for
two or three days. A considerable
number of witnesses were examined
but it is understood that the jury was
not able to connect sufficient
chain of evidence to warrant an in
dietment upon the line on which the
charges are based.

The Commercial club of this city
has sold its interest in the second
floor of the handsome Masonic Tenn
pie on Douglas avenue, to the Mason
ic Building association, owner of the
building proper. The price paid is
in the neighborhood of $4,000.
This deal has been pending for
some time and its consummation
does not come as surprise. At the
time the Masonic Temple was built,
the plans at first called for but two
floors. The Montezuma club, which
was in existence at that time, enter
ed into an agreement with the Ma
sonic Building association, to stand
the cost of an extra floor, provided
the building was made three stories.
The proposition met with favor
and the building was made a three
story structure.
At the time of the consolidation
of the Montezuma club, the Board OF
Trade and the Commercial club, into
one organization, the present Com.
mercial club, the latter assumed the
indebtedness originally incurred by
the Montezuma club, and took over
the second floor of the Masonic TEN
pie, the present elegant quarters Of

COUPLED WITH WRITINGS,
ARE INcoNGRUOUs

London, Oct. THE announcement
from London that James M. Barrie,
author and playwright, has petitioned
for separation from his wife, has
created much comment here. Barrie's
wonderful grasp of feminine character
shown in his books and plays, has al
ways been supposed to have been in
spired by a perfect agreement with
his wife, and the idea of divorce,
coupled with the author of When a
Mans Single" and What Every Wo-
man Knows" is regarded as decided
ly incongruous.
