ALEXANDRIA, VA.
WEDNESDAY EVENING, JULY p

Washers and rowdies in Minneapolis
parks will be spanked instead OF ar
rested. There will be no fast ride to
the station, no arraignment in police
court, no fine and no workhousc. The
edict was issued yesterday by the chief
OF the park police. I have instructed
my officers. said the chief, first to
hit the masher or rowdy and then lay
him across the knee and give him Il
sound spanking. Possibly spanking IS
not the technical duty of 4 policeman,
but have studied the situation, and |
think public spanking will solve the
problem. Should the mashcr or rowdy
show fight, the spanking will be all the
more thorough" The chief is y wise
man and a good judge OF human
nature. His example should be FOL
lowed by others.

TOM SAVAGE IS GIVEN
A CHANCE TO EXPLAIN
Former TenderIoin Chieftain Says Sa-
loon Was Not Transferred Be-
cause of an Oversight

Tom Savage, once liking of the ten
derloin," was before the police COM
mission last night to fight for the con-
tinued existence of his saloon at 234
North Alameda street, and was sue
cessful to the extent that his case was
continued until February IA, when a
number of other liquor cases have
been set.
There was nothing against Savage
personally nor his saloon for the COM
mission to consider, but his case was
similar to that of a number of others.
His permit is held in the name of
Charles Stack, and has never been
transferred to Savage, although he
has owned the saloon for several
years.
Savage explained that when he pur-
chased the saloon from Stack he in
tended to have the license transferred
to himself, but before the deal was
consummated Stack disappeared. He
said he expended $500 in a vain effort
to find Stack.
Mayor Alexander sharply criticised
Savage for not appearing before the
police commission during the present
administration when the commission
asked for information and demanded
that owners of saloons appear and get
the permits for their places in their
own names.
Commissioner Topham answered for
Savage and said that he did not blame
him for failing to do so, when places
like the Angelus and the Van Mugs,
which were conducting saloons under
other names than those of the own
ers Of the places, had not done SO.

SERGEANTS FINED
FOR DELINQUENCY
Attending Prize Fight Proves Costly
for Police Observation-Disclosures
Resigns Because of Pen-
atty Imposed

After pleading guilty and throwing
themselves on the mercy of the police
commission last night, Sergts. D. L.
Adams and A. W. Hartmyer were lei
off with stiff fines for leaving their
beats and attending prize fight last
week.
Adams was fined fifteen days pay
or S62.5O, and Hartmyer, who was con-
sidered the more culpable, was fined
thirty days pay, or Sf25. This money
will go into the police pension fund.
After the penalty for the two Of
Tending sergeants had been decided
Mayor Alexander said:
There is some occasion for leniency,
as it has been the custom for officers
to visit places of amusement While on
duty. But hereafter the rules will be
strictly enforced and all officers are
prohibited from leaving their beats to
attend theaters, fights or other amuse-
ments except in the strict line OF their
duty. The chief is instructed to issue
bulletin executing this order"
Sergt. Adams told the commission
that on the night in question he had
permission from Capt. Lehnhausen to
attend the fight, but he confessed he
had attended many other fights with
and Capt. Lehnhausen told the commits
sion Adams was one of the best ser
geants in the department. The fact
that Adams had permission to attend
the fight was the mitigating circum-
stance in his case and his fine was
comparatively light.
Sergt. Hartmyer said he had gone to
the fight to look for a "holdup" he had
been detailed on. He confessed having
attended fights without permission.
The two promised to produce the
amount of their fines this morning and
will be returned TO work Mayor Alex
ander, half in jest and half in earnest,
offered to lend them money to pay the
fines if they had any difficulty in Sc
curing the money.
S. ]. Mckenzie, former acting desk
sergeant, who was reduced to the ranks
and fined a months pay by the police
commission Tuesday night, resigned
from the force last night. His resigna-
ton was unanimously accepted by the
commission.
In his resignation Mckenzie said: Il
consider the fine levied on me and the
reprimand given me on the 18th inst.
were unjust AS a man, [ felt it my
duty to sever my connection with the
department, in which l have served
for eight years.
The punishment given Mchenzle was
administered because during a hearing
Monday night he told the police COM
mission he was 'too busy" to give at
tention to a prisoner.
1t was expected that two of the Sec
| retaries of the police department would
| also tender their designations, but they
did not materialize last night. There
are four or five different kinds of Sec
retaries in the police department, anc
there is a movement on foot to con-
solidate all these secretaryships under
the position of executive secretary o.
the entire department.
