The Capture of Fugitive Criminals

FugitiveS from justice find the world
growing steadily smaller, with fewer hid
ing places. Organization of police agen-
cies has been effected until it is prac-
tically impossible for person who Is flee
ing from one jurisdiction to find refuge in
another A virtually perfect system Of
communications has been established
whereby law officers keep one another in
formed of their needs and the identity Of
those who are accused of crime. For ex
ample, the Washington police have just
been notified that certain man and
woman are wanted" at Birmingham,
England. on a charge of fraud. Full de-
scriptions are furnished. and thus in
few days from the time of flight every
policeman in Washington will be on the
lookout for these offenders. Similarly in
all other American cities and. doubtless,
cities of all other countries the police will
be notified of the appearance and habits
of the fugittves and their arrest in a short
time becomes probable. With the aid Of
the camera and scientific methods of iden-
tificatiOn the chances Of fugitive to es-
cape detection are brought to such low
point that flight is with only rare excep-
tons futile. This result has been accom-
plished through intelligent cooperation
between police headquarters, another in
stance of the efficiency of organization.
OF course, now and then criminal makes
his escape. and by changing his appear
ance is able to elude detection for years.
Now and then the police utterly lose track
forever of fugitive offenders, as in a GER
tain notable local instance needless to re-
peat. But such cases are extreme excep-
tons. The rule of today is that man
who commits a crime is almost certain
to be caught, no matter if he should evade
immediate arrest, as long as his identity
is known. In such cases as the Mickle
murder, where there is no assurance of
identity, the problem is Of a different
character. If the man who killed Mickle
were actually known to the police. he
would in all probability be caught. no
matter whittier he might flee.

Detective Burns.

Detective Burns is in danger Of losing
some of the prestige which he gained
through the confession Of the McNa-
mara brothers and the consequent vim
dication of his course in their prosecu-
ton for the Los Angeles dynamit-
ing. 1t was quite natural after the
dramatic denouerlent last week for him
to speak exultantly. though in fact
words from him We're necessary. for
throughout the country his praises were
loudly sounded Immediately. Ever since
the confession. however. he has been
talking. endeavoring to persuade the pub
Tic that the guilt Of the McNamaras had
been known to certain leaders of labor.
His controversy with Samuel Gompers
has become bitter personal wrangle.
with the detective making threats and
dropping pointed hints of accusations to
come and the labor leader answering in
kind with an anger perhaps justifable.
The catching of the McNamaras and
the securing OF evidence sufficient to force
them into a confession to save their necks
was a clever and valuable piece of work,
for which the law-abiding citizens of this
country are today profoundly grateful to
the detective, so far as he has been in
strumental 10 this end But there is
other work 10 do, the nature Of which
Mr. Burns has himself indicated plainly
in the course OF his numerous talks for
duplication, and the prosecution of that
work is surely not aided by the injection
OF bitter personalities into the case or
the constant clamoring OF the detective
against one particular leader Of labor
1ndeed, there is danger that the detective
may, seriously interfere with the process

now undertaken and incidentally check

Alabama and Mr.. Underwood.

Tho Alabama delegation in the House
did = graceful thing in indorsing Mr..
Underwood for the presidency. and Mr.
Underwood most sensible thing in ac-
centins the Endorsement as personal
compliment In both performances runs
the note of sincerity.
As q truly national figure. Mr.. Under
wood is young: being only about a year
old His services in the House had long
been useful. hut not until il was known
that the republican supremacy had been
overthrown and that the new House
would he organized by the democrats did
-hc gentleman from Alabama come fuily
into the spotlight. Democratic suprem-
acv in that body meant Mr. Underwood
for leader. and then the country began
to take his measure.
As a presidential figure-made so by
The old folks at home-Mr- Underwood is
only about six months old After he had
shown his mettle at the extra session.
and demonstrated that he was both lead
OF and harmonizer, compliments from all
around poured IN. and in Alabama they
gave new turn to thought. AS this man
had done 50 we'll in the place OF House
leader why would he not do we'll as
leader in the White House? Besides. as
there was 50 much talk about this being
the south's opportunity. why should not
Ny Underwood. of southern birth, rear
ing and residence. stand forth as the
man.
At fifty political leader is reckoned
as young Mr. Underwood will have
reached that mark before the democratic
national convention meets. He is young.
With youth go impulsiveness and eager
ness. Ordinarily such compliment as
has been paid Mr.. Underwood by his col
leagues would stir young man to action.
Bu: the present leader of the House is
not impulsive. In truth. that fact ex-
plains his leadership. He is a man OF
calculation Had he not been. he could
never have piloted his party through the
difficulties of the extra session. His
task then called for calm vision and
single purpose Had he been a SPELL
binder and a scatterer he would have
wasted his opportunity.
Were Mr.. Underwood to set his heart
on the White House and maneuyer for
a stay under that famous roof he would
play hobs with all the reputation he has
Just acquired. His vision would become
confused. and everything would go by
the board. He could not serve two mas
ters and his work in the House has the
first and highest claim on his attention.
This does not mean that Mr.. Under
woods name will. as the result of his
reply to his House colleagues. disappear
from the presidential speculation. OF
course il will not. 1t is there to stay,
with the other names now on many pens
and tongues. The matter of the nominee
is in the lap of fate. and We shall all
have to wait for the decision.

A Typical Bureau Problem.

The paymaster general of the navy
states not uncommon case in his annual
report in noting the fact that there are
not enough clerks on the rolls of his
bureau to do the work properly, and
furthermore that they are not paid
enough to keep them in service when they
are efficient. One consequence is that
former clerks of his bureau are scattered
through other departments where. by rea-
son of the training they had in the navy
pay office they are now holding respon-
sible and highly paid positions. The chief
of the bureau must fill up the ranks from
time to time with new appointees to take
the places of the competent men who Sc
cure transfers into offices where they
have better chances for promotion. In
the same way many of the most efficient
clerks in the government offices leave the
public service for private employment be-
cause of the better pay they can COM
mand outside. not to speak of the in
creased chances Of rising in the scale.
Under the present system of depart
mental organization there is little incen-
tive for the competent clerk to remain in
the government employ. Again the con-
trast between the American and British
government employee is encouraged to re-
main in the service and particularly in
his own bureau. He is assured, wherever
he may be employed, of competent sal
airy and an annual promotion. There are
no soft places" in that service to tempt
clerks to secure transfers. The same
scale Of pay prevails in most of the Of
fees as regards similar lines of work. and
practically Identical There is no COM
petition between bureaus for the services
of the more efficient workers. Such a
condition as that which Paymaster Gen.
eral Cowie cites is unheard of in the Brit
ish public service. which is unquestion-
ably superior in point of effectiveness and
competence to that of the United States.
Evidence continues to accumulate from
all sides that the business of this govern
ment is suffering because of two condi-
lions. the maintenance of pay scale that
is fifty years out of date, and the failure
to adopt a method of departmental retire
ment permitting regular promotions
through the successive release of the
elder workers from active duty. Secre-
taries and chiefs of bureaus are almost
unanimous in their recommendations that
more pay be given, and that some method
be adopted to relieve the departments of
the congestion caused by the humane re-
tention Of the veteran clerks who have
passed the period Of their greatest useful
| ness and are on the decline, and who. in
sheer self-preservation. cling desperately
to their places. Considered from the point
of view of the public welfare. without any
reference to the personal deserts of the
clerks themselves. an immediate increase
| in the pay scale and the adoption of a
method of departmental retirement is
| urgently required.

Marching Through Georgia.

What is the matter with Georgia?
What sort of politics may that brand be
which is found in the Cracker state?
A few years ago Hoke Smith was elect
ed governor after a hot fight for the
nomination. and upon taking office found
an inconspicuous man Of the name Of
Brown serving as a railroad commits
sioner. He and Mr.. Brown did not hit 1t
of very well. and Gov. Smith removed
Commissioner Brown.
Mr. Brown. in the language of the
street. took his medicine with good grace.
and in his private office began keeping
tab on the new regime. 1t occurred to
him that. with such a start, Gov. Smith
might not give the state a popular adj
ministration.
Such proved to be the case: and when
the time came Mr.. Brown. encouraged by
expressions of discomfort with the gov
ernor. offered for the place and defeated
the man who had sent him to coventry in
the matter Of the railroads Gov. Brown,
the rejected stone succeeded Gov. Smith
and became chief Of the corner.
The defeated man took his medicine
with good grace. and began keeping tab
on Gov. Brown. When the time came,
encouraged by expressions of discomfort
with the Brown administration. former
Gov. Smith fixed upon himself as the
proper man to succeed the man who had
succeeded him. and the people at the polls
ratified his judgment. Gov. Brown STEP
ped down. and Gov Smith again stepped
up.
Then came the death of Senator Clay,
and Gov. Smith offered for the vacancy.
and had the strength to secure the Office.
For the vacancy thus created in the
