Success Of Finger-Print System
Hard on Crooks.
Has Been Means Of Securing Many
Convictions and It's Use 10 Being
Adopted More Widely bye
the Police.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS operating In
Indianapolis In the future will have to
wear gloves, as the detective depart
ment henceforth will pay more at
attention to the practical side OF the
finger-print system. Captain OF Detec'
tives Holtz, on a recent visit to New
York, found the detectives there were
making use of the finger-print system,
and he believes 1t will be a great help
In solving burglaries.
The detective. department here has
used the flnger-print system since 1t
was adopted by the national bureau OF
Identification. 1t has been USED, how
ever, more in identifying prisoners
with the Bertillon system. After a
prisoner has been brought in and his
Bertillon Identification has been COM
pleted, the fnger-print cards were
used to verify the Identification more
completely.
when was In New York recently
/ found the police department using
the finger-print system to identify bur
glars who leave finger prints around
the job they have done." said Cap
tain Holtz. Several large burglaries
have been cleared in the east through
finger prints. and the detectives there
say burglars now wear gloves when
they are at work.
II have always believed the finger
prints practical in police work. FIRE.
Quently the finger prints Of safe blow
ers are left on the door. and the or
binary burglar is apt to leave finger
prints around q door or window.
"The trouble is, the finger print to
be OF any service to police work, has
to be very clear, or the expert is I'M
able to see enough lines to make an
Identification"
Bert Perrott, Bertillon clerk, is also
the finger-print expert. Perrott, since
he has taken up the finger prints in
connection with the Bertillon work.

has shown great skill. Recently. as
test, a glass bottle was taken into
the detective department at roll call.
Previously the detectives had gone to
Perrott's Office and he took the i'm
preston Of their finger tips.
After leaving the bottle Perrot re-
turned to his office. Detective Frank
Duncan picked up the bottle and car
ried 1t to the other side of the room.
Perrott then took the bottle to his
Office and compared the finger prints
with those he had taken Of the vari-
GUS detectives. He picked out Dun.
can as the man who had handled the
bottle.
The advantage of the finger prints
of the burglar to the detective Is II
the burglar has ever been under ar
rest Of larceny charge a record Of
his finger prints has been taken. The
expert goes to the scene Of the bur
glary. takes an impression Of the
finger prints, and then compares It
with the cards he has on file.

While 1t Is impossible to tell accu-
rately how many consumptives there

CONTROL OF U. S. SENATE

Washington, d. G., Nov. 6.-When
President Wilson sends his nominal.
ions of cabinet officers to the senate fol.
lowing his Inauguration, that body
will be In the control OF the democrats
for the first time since the fifty-third
congress. The majority of the
democrats may be very slight, but
with several progressives who will
join them, in aay even, they will be
able to reorganize the senate from top
to bottom for the first time since the
senate met at the beginning of the
second Cleveland administration and
lsham G. Harris, of Tennessee, was
elected president protempore to preside
in the absence of Vice. President
Stevenson. Only once before, in the
forty-sixth congress, had the democrats
since before the war been able to
organize the upper body of congress.
At that time Hayes was President,
and Allen q. Thurman, of Ohio, was
made president pro-tempore to preside
in the absence of Vice-President
Wheeler. Only in these two congresses
since the war have the democrats had
a clear majority of the senate. The
contract between the complexion of
the sixty-first congress, which met
with the beginning of President Taft's
administration, and the congress elect
most strlkingly marks the progress Of
the democratic party return to power.
In the sixty-first congress there were
sixty republicans and thirty-two demo-
Gratis in the senate, while in the house
were 2l9 republicans and 172 democrats.
In the next congress, from present in
dications, there will be in the senate !
fifty democrats and forty-six republic
cans while in the house there will be ;
300 democrats and 1876 republicans and
The democrats having
a sure two-thirds majority in the house
md a decisive working majority in
he senate, or as against the stand pat
republicans, two-third majority in
hat body.
