store he met another policeman. They

London of an old colored NANNY from
the Free State of Liberia who had saved
up the money shilling by shilling for the
purpose of going TO England to see her
majesty, she not only asked her TO visit
at Windsor Castle. but even invited her
TO take a seat on the sofa beside her

NEW YORK WIDE OPEN

And. what is still more important,
news Of any such disturbance Of police
machinery is scattered broadcast 1t is
well known that the word has gone out
among thieves that New York is in such
a hospitable state to-day. James Forbes,
secretary and director of the National
Society for the Prevention of Mendi-
cancy, stated the case briefly the other
DAY when he said:
In the thieves saloons all the way
f,,rl chicago to San Francisco the word
y passed in backroom conferences last
q 'hat New York was an open town
rhlt Is. that systematic supervision of
: f-cardoni by police officers who knew
7 ggars and their records and their
rlmes have been Withdrawn, and, more
Ger. that the administration was op-
ynsed 10 having arrests made and
{, agistrates were opposed TO making
convictions.

tie men who in summer follow county
4 irs, loot country stores and knock

winter quarters. Conditions were ideal
for an influx of these men TO New York.
And they have come. They are willing
70 beg. They are ready for other things.
in summer they arc yeggmen, ready TO
turn their hands TO either chicken steal
ing or safe blowing as the opportunity
offers. There is not the least mystery
nbout this increasing holiness and in
creas!ng frequency of their assaults
upon citizens"
However IL arose the main fact is
that the crime wave is here and that
the New York police, Of least are in
no temper 20 trife with II. II Is said
about headquarters that lately there
has been a surprising increase In the
number OF persons reported missing"
who have not afterward turned up, and
that IL was in tracing these mysterious
eases that the department first woke UP

IN the city.
