FOR NEW POLICE UNIFORMS.
Maj. Sylvester Takes Up Question of
Changing STYLE,

Maj. Sylvester is anxious to make
change in the uniforms of members of
the police department. The superin-
tendent believes the uniforms the police
are now wearing are by no means up to
date. Neither are they comfortable or
dressy, he says.
Yesterday afternoon the captains and
inspectors met at police headquarters
and discussed the question. While they
did not reach "a definite decision, they
did agree on certain changes.
One change involves the length and
style of the overcoats. to make the
garment less cumbersome. Mounted and
bicycle policemen probably will wear
caps at all times, and the others will
wear them in winter, wearing helmets
only in summer.
In all probability there will be a
change made in the insignia and adorn
ments. The committee will see sample
uniforms before making a final report.
