 | The long delayed elections to the l department were effected at one of 1 the shortest meetings of the police | board on record. The commissioners had come to agreement before con- vening at police headquarters as to whom they should select. l Gathering in the commissioners room at police headquarters the com n1issioners were called to order by | President Hallen who at once an- i nounced that the purpose of the | eeting was to elect new members. l Though it had been predicted that more than 10 men would be chosen for there is money available and vacancies for more than that num- ber-the commissioners had come to the agreement that 10 would be the limit.
 The commissioners had already provided themselves with blanket ballots, containing the list of 10 names, and each of them dropped the ballot into a hat a few seconds after the meeting came to order. Then were read the applications of
 Sheehan, McGuire Mrazk and Howell.
 Then the clerk announced the result
 of the ballot. Election of the new
 men was made contingent upon their
 qualifying with the physical standard
 of the department.
 No action was taken with respect
 to the election of a doorman a move
 that was expected at the meeting last
 night.
