NO MORE POLICE
At WHITE HOUSE
GUARD AROUND THE EXECU
TIVE MANsCION REMOVED
AS RESULT or ECONOMY.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 1.--Orders
were issued today to the twenty-five
policemen now doing inside work at
the White House. to report to their
various precinct captains on We'd
nesday. This move. which came as
shock to the whole police department
sthe result of a movement In the
House of Representatives for economy.
Chairman Burleson, of the House
committee of the District of Columbia.
called at the White House a few days
ago. and suggested to President Tart
that the inside police protection could
be done away with. The president.
who does net feel that p~lice pro-
lection Is necessary agreed.
No one at the White House would
discuss the matter outside OF saying
that no arraignments have been made
for policing the executive mansion and
officers after Wednesday.
1t is not known whether the police
guard will be relieved by a patrol of
Infantry Or whether the marine corps
will be called upon to maitain a pro-
tective force. There are about twenty
more policemen doing outside duty
in the grounds surrounding the White
House. and II IL not improbable that
these also Will be removed Shortly.

some time this month.
Judge Witt said yesterday afternoon
that he hap not considered the mat

would soon do So,
he viii consider suggestions from
the police board. and II Is probable
that the hoard Wili make the sugges=
ti1ns at the meeting tomorrow even
In.
Til. tu>st prominent name mentioned
in connection with the position IL
that OF Captain Epps. Of the Second
station. Captain Epps' health has not
been Of the best lately, and he suf-
fcred an accident not long ago, which
impaired his constitution to some ex-
tnet.
The duties necessary TO conduct the
Viftt' vi arc IIpI as
strenuous as those necessary in the
position of captain of police. and II -
believed that with his great knewf.
edge of the conditions In the circles
which would produce the candidates for
observation and treatment by the pro-
bation officer would make him a val
uahle man for the position.
Captain Fpps has been on the force
IA every capacity to that of captain,
and has figured In many OF the big
cases which have come before the de-
partment for many years. 1t Is likely
that the board wifi place him on the
retired list, and that then Judge Witt
will appoint him to the position rec
commended by the State Board OF Char
ities.
Should Captain Epps retire from
active duty on the force, there nrI
several names mentioned as successor.
The most prominent Is that OF Ser
geant Soweil, of the First District
Others who have been suggested are
Sergeants Wiley. Shoemaker, Kerse.
Bailey. thinner, Tyler. and several
patrolmen.
The board does not run along the
lines of precedent. The members be-
lieve in rewarding the man regardless
Of his position Major Werner was
chosen chief from the rank of acting
sergeant. Some one may be taken
from the ranks for the captaincy.

The increases were provided for in

owners OF the iaun jries that they
would not open shop tomorrow I'M
less the workers returned to their

representatives stated they were as
sured that $4,000 more employees In
the laundries would cease work out

employees who quit Saturday night.

of success.

WASHINGTON, Jan. Viewing
with alarm the protests from three
great States and the opposition of
senators. representatives and other
public men to the appointment OF
Judge Hook. President Taft has de-
cided to hold up the nomination for
a successor to Judge Harlan until
the return from Panama OF Attorney
General W1ckersham. January IL.
After being read personally by the
President the protests will be care
fully scrutinized by the attorney
general.
At the White House there was de-
NAL that Mr.. Taft had definitely de-
cided upon Judge Hook. Consider
able Significance IL attached to the
fact that at the White House the
name of Secretary of Commerce and
Labor Nagel again is heard in this
connection. Attorney General Wick
ersham Is personally pledged to
Nagel
The main objection in the minds
OF those Immediately around the
President Is that having delivered an
opinion favorable to the railroads in
the Minnesota case. which is now be-
fore the Supreme Court for review,
Judge Hook would not IL appointed
be eligible to sit in that case. More
over. the same case Is bound to come
