waved his hand NJ Libby.
Immediately both men got out OF their
cars and met upon the pavement They
talked together for 4 few minutes and
then separated. each going back 10 his
own automobile. Dousherty signalled his
chauffeur 10 60 straight ahead, and Libby
went in the other direction.
Tho meeting was over so quickly that
none of the newspaper reporters had an
opportunity to meet the deputy and ask
him what the nature OF hts conversation
with Libby had been. ii Il was a fact
that the meeting was by appointment it
was regarded as probable that Libby had
something to say about the whereabouts

the court asked him hls name he replied
in a voice OF studied sadness:

rather die than let my family know Of my
plight"
Mrs. Becker was very nervous, and as
she was sworn KEEP, lingering silver
mesh bag she carried. She appeared In
blue tailored suit, with a blue straw
hat. and wore tan shoes.
After describing the receipt Of the two
letters demanding $3.50. which the prisoner
admitted sending. che said:
Your honor. I'm very much inclined 10

by many irresponsible persons who have
been misled b. newspaper stories Of my
supposed great wealth. I would rather
not press the complaint"

denying her request, but the case must

The prisoner, who vas we'll dressed.

Mr. Rice. Ho said:
We have under way AZ the present time
m Investigation OF the accounts and
methods OF the Shcriff's Office. New York
County. This Office has not been exam
incd for many years. and surface indi-
cations point TO the necessity for "A
thorough reorganization.
We also have uhder way an examina-
ton OF the Department OF Corrections,
which I regard IA OF fundamental i'm
portance. As | have already explained
10 your honor. this investigation involves
a constructive study of the entire penal
system OF Now York City. For years
tho city has had no definite, Tar reach
Ing plan for development and growth IN
this department u has been neglected
from both financial and an admins
trative point of view. as a result. the
penal institutions In New York City-that
IL. our tails and w0rkhouses--have be-
come the objects OF harsh criticism from
penologists all over the world. II We
can formulate In this administration
some definite plan Of deyelopm ent which
subsequent administrations can follow,
feel that we will have taken long
step forward
We are also making q constructive
study of the various departments Of
Bellevue and Allied Hospitals. with the
idea Of cooperating with the board OF
trustees In establishing an effective form
of administration and control.
In the Department of Charities. We
arc taking up by divisions plan for
the reorganization or It's accounting and

In conclusion. beg TO recommend to
the care OF my successor my newly es-
tabliehed Bureau OF Efficiency. This
bureau has started its work In the Bor-
ough of Queens. and the results so far
shown arc OF such character az TO
warrant hearty support With the ex-
penditurcs OF New York City growing
from year to year by millions OF dollars.
Il IS only through work OF this kind that
the budget can be kept within reasonable
bounds. II. through the installation OF
efficiency methods, all OF our departments
could be put upon sound business basis,
reducing the element Of waste To q mini
mum, ! believe that savings running into
the millions could easily be effected.
