NORFOLK PRESENTS
KN0TTY PROBLEM
POLICEMAN DISMISSED FROM
POSITION To SEEK AID OF
COURTS FOR REINSTATE-
MENT.

Especial TO The Richmond Virginian.)
NORFOLK, VA, Jan. 25.--Out of
the dismissal of Patrolman John T.
Crank by Mayor Riddick for mis-
conduct in office" has arisen a knotty
question that the courts may be call
ed upon to solve. The mayor dismiss
ed the officer under one section of
the city charter, and the officer APP
pealed TO the Board OF Control Not
sure that 1t had Jurisdiction in the
matter. the Board of Control asked
the City Attorney for an opinion as
to whether or not the board could
hear an appeal from the city's chief
executive. In reply to this question
the City Attorney stated that, in his
opinion. the board could hear the APP
peal. Not under the section of the
charter referred to by the mayor In
dismissing the officer. but under an
other section. which he held. should
be considered In connection with the
section referred to by the mayor. The
City Attorney also advised the board
that in his Judgment the mayor had
no right to dismiss the officer under
the section noted, but did have the
right to suspend him, and as another
section of the charter gave the mayor
the right to dismiss, with the privi-
lege of an appeal. the two should be
considered in connection with the dis
missal, anu that the officer who was
removed had a right to appeal.
With this. opinion in hand the
board held the view that IL did not
have the right to hear an appeal from
the mayors decision under the section
referred to in the letter announcfng
the removal of the patrolman from
the force, and declined to take any
a. knF1 n n for no boo re
claims that In one of the sections of
the charter certain safeguards are
thrown around the officer, which are
not thrown around him in the other,
and that " the mayor has not pro-
ceeded in accordance with the pro-
visions of the section referred to by
him. he has not given the officers the
benefit of the safeguards which are
mentioned in the other section, and
that. as in the opinion of the board,
ii has no right to deprive the ac-
cused- aftlceref- aHt-p privileges TO
which he S entitled. and that as Pa
troIman Crank has not had the bene-
hit of the privileges to which he is
entitled under the section not re-
ferred TO in notifying the board of
his dismissal. the officer should be
left to seek such protection from the
court as ne may be entitled to. Ii
the court should see fit to order the
officer back to duty, all SO wellsand
good. IL It should order the Board
of Control to hear the appeal, then
the board would be governed accord
ingly.
Patrolman Crank was found in an
alleged gambling house in uniform
when the place was raided by ser
geant and patrolman a few weeks
ago, but when the proprietor was
tried for maintaining gambling
house he was dismissed by the po-
lice Justice on the ground that 1t was
not a public gambling house. He
was reported to the Board of Control
by Major Kixer. chief OF police. but
before the board could hear the
charges Mayor Riddick ordered the
officer before him. and after an in
vestigation dismissed the accused
from the force.

DERBILT CHIEF WINNER.
NEW Conner AMBITIOUS

PARIS, Jan. 25.--It has developed
through the announcements OF the
nominations for the early closing
stakes that the stable OF w. K. Van
derbiit, which for three years has
carried off the bulk of the purses
offered for racing on the fiat. Will
be stronger this year than ever. :
Vanderbilt has led the winning
owners despite the fact that he has
failed to lard the bacon in the big
stakes, all of his purses having been
OF the overnight and minor handicap
variety. For instance. last year he
won only one $4,000 purse. while his
gross total was more than ten times
that amount.
This year Vanderbilt will race one
aged horse. the great Seasick: Over
sight and three other four-year-olds.
eleven three-year- olds and thirteen
-year-olds, all of his own breed
ing. The three-year- oids are among
the classiest in France, and In their
number II is confidently predicted is
the winner of this years French der
by
Vanderbilt and Gould.
The juveniles are well tried and
comprise the pick OF scventy-two bred
by Vanderbilt at his own stud. 1t Is
believed this season will witness a
great duel on the French turf be-
tween Vanderbilt and Frank J. Gould,
a fellow American. who has taken up
his residence In France.
Gould has ordered his trainer to
buy the cream of the French turf re-
xardless OF expense. and ii is known
that he has confided to his intimates
that his dearest ambition is to out
rank Vanderbilt in the list of winning
owners.
This means a great season for the
French turf with this battle of Amer
lean dollars impending.
Vanderbilt Chief Winner.
The Jockey Club Wednesday gave
out revised figures of the winning
owners for last year. Vanderbilt heads
the list with IA total of 1.oiS.so2
francs; Edmond Blanc is second. with
s24.ss5: Madame Cheremetef. third,
sls.s1a. and Baron NJ. de Rothschild.
fourth, with 4ss.ifo.
These figures differ materially from
the unofficial ones. which indicated
that Vanderbilt led NJ. Blanc by only
a few hundred francs.
The Vanderbilt average winnings
for the past three years have been
I.fss.9gs francs.
