have been preferred against policemen

punishment that had been meted out
to them.
In the book of rules and regulations

mentions forty-two specific offenses
for which policeman may be disci-

any other member whether he be
ranking ofncer or subordinate. All
the charges against any employe OF
the police department for violation Of
the rules and regulations OF the de-

Taft has written letter to Senator

language of the conference report in
reference to the compromise on the
leather and hide question.
The alleged joker. which a number
of the progressive republicans in the
senate are said TO have discovered in
the leather schedule of the tariff bill
as reported by the conferees ana
which some of them have been quoted
as saying constituted betrayal of
the presidents confidence, brought
out declaration by Mr.. Taft to his
callers today that the language of
the amendment as to boots and shoes
is exactly as agreed upon by him
Mr.. Aldrich and Mr.. Payne. The
president also said that the talk OF
a joker in the leather schedule was
absurd.
