NEMESIS is ON
THEIR TRACKS
Police Inspectors Must Disgorge
Illegally Collected Fees
so SAYS CITY CONTROLLER
CONSERVATION in Pittsburgh Public
Safety Observation-Disclosures
Rejoicing That inspectors
Will "Get Theirs"
so SAYS CITY CONTROLLER

Pittsburgh, Pal was astonished
to learn that police inspectors are
drawing court fees. My opinion is
that they have no right to retain this
money, which belongs to the city. !
intend to enter proceedings to collect
all fees that police inspectors retain
ed, and it is my impression that | can
go back five years and compel those
inspectors who received fees to dis
gorge, at least l shall make the at
tempt" This statement has jusb
been made by Controller e. S. Nor
row.
About seven years ago the Ale
gheny county courts decided that po-
licemen were not entitled to court fees
In addition to their salaries and the
county need not pay them. The court
did not say that the fees should be
paid to the city. The controller holds,
however, that when a policeman does
court work that carries fees the coGn-
ty must pay them, but to the city not
to the policeman.
The question of court fees has al
ways been a bone Of contention be-
tween the detectives and the COM
manding officers of the police bureau
on one side and the rank and file on
the other It is contended that the
payment of witness fees to sworn of
ticers of the city is illegal, the argu-
ment being that the officers are mere
ly doing that for which they are be-
ing paid, and should not receive this
extra remuneration, which, in the case
of one police inspector, amounted to
SAC N one month.
Patrolmen say that they pick up
known crooks from descriptions read
to them and receive no credit for the
arrest, either on the blotter at the
police station, financially, through the
witness fees, or publicity, in the news
papers.
They cannot leave their posts, so
are forced either to call the patrol
wagon or the bureau of detectives.
Once the prisoner is placed in the
patrol wagon, or turned over to the
detectives, that is the last they ever
hear of the case. On the blotter at
the police station the arrest Of the
prisoner Is credited to the detectives,
and in the majority of instances, If the
case goes to court, the patrolman, al
though he has made the arrest, is not
called, and the detectives, or the in
spector, or his captain, collect the wit
ness fees.
Were only seven spots, said one

What's the use? We can kick to the
inspector or the captain, but what
good does that do? He's not going
to help us when by so doing he would

In the Life and Works Of Winslow
Homer" by William Howe Downs. Is
this quaint anecdote:
Winslow Homer's relations with his
father were always ideal and became
more devoted as the fathers life drew
toward it's end. But the father was e
strong temperance man. He did not
approve Of Winslow's habit Of taking
what the New England folks call an
III o'clocker." When he was at
Prout's Neck, Winslow tried to induce
his father to take a little something
for his stomach's sake. At II o'clock
he would bring him a cocktail, and the
two regularly went through with the
following dialogue:
Now, father, don't you think you'd
better take this? 1t will do you good"
"Is there any alcoholic liquor in that,
Winslow?"
Yes, father"
"Well, won't touch it, then"
Father, If you don't take it I'll drink
it myself"
well, Winslow, rather than have
you destroy the tissues Of your stom-
ach by drinking this alcoholic bever-
age I'll drink It"
