from the Municipal Civil Service Com
mission This was the official informa-
ton that those men were eilBple TOT pro-
motion. OF course, the civil service lists
were open, and we knew what men were
on the list The law and orders governing
the Police Commissioner at that time ad-
mitted the selection OF one out OF three.
The necessity, / might say the necessity
for competent police captains. parucu-
larly, was so great. and my anxiety on
that question so considerable, that a great
deal Of thought was expended upon wnat
We could do to get the best men. one
Of the things we could do was not only
to examine carefully the official record
thing about him on the side. and then
also We found II was a good scheme TO
try these men out beforehand. For IN
stance, IL was possible under the rules OF
the police department to make neuten-
ant an, acting captain, and see nov ne
many cases. | remember now par
ticular case, ii is not necessary to men,
ton the name. The man had good
record, but he had mostly done clerical
work. desk duty, both at headquarters
and at precinct stations, and there were
characteristics about him that did not
commend him TO me to be q man 70 %
a captain of precinct. 1t seemed as II
he had not had the necessary experiences
but under this rule We made him an act
Ing captain, and tried him out. ana ne
must have done pretty well, because my
recollection is, and ] am quite certain
OF IL, that he was promoted 70 captain.
OF course, every source OF information IN
regard 10 any man on the force was con-
sidered in accordance with its Importance
That Is, II 1t was trifing praise or
trihing accusation. not much attention
would be paid to IT, IL 1t was something
serious. then IL was investigated, and we
would try TO find out how true II was
And. OF course, one of the most difhcult
things, although we worked earnestly at
IT, was to find out whether there was any
truth in any charges, particularly anohy :
nous charges that were made against
any man on the force.
Odd you trust any one man partlcu-
larry as your adviser. or did you nave
other people besides? A.-No one man, no.
Always Sought Advice.

months after he had Joined the force. He
did not pay that money. but later he said
he put up $500 TO be made a roundsmau.
He paid the money, he swears, 10 man
named billy" Cassine. who was now
dead. and that was before the consolida
ton OF the city and when Conlon was
Chief OF Police He said Conlon sent for
him one dsy and told him he was think
ing OF making him a roundsman. Reith
had been transferred 10 the Bureau OF
Identification at Headquarters. and told
Conlon he did not want the roundsman' 5
fob.
shortly after that ! rot part OF my
money back" said the witness.
Reith told OF his pleasant experiences
with Deputy Commissioner Bugher. under
Commissioner Baker. during the Hudson
Fulton celebration. He said that Bugher
had commended him for his work. and
when he had complained because he had
not been promoted under General Bing-
ham. Mr. Bugher sent for him and
showed him reports on hle written by
Dan" Slattery 10 Commissioner Bing-

The witness said n lot OF people knew
about his being asked 10 put up the

In answer TO questions by Alderman

say anything rejecting on any captain.
He said II wasn't nice to talk about his
brother officers.

Reith said. in answer to further ques-

the money would "straighten out the

could grow out Of this testimony and
suggested that the general use such
terms as he thought would lend them
selves best to express the facts he wished
to convey.
Mr. Buckner asked the general to read
the afidsvit made by Captain Reith, and
then examined him as follows:
Q.-Do you recall personally ever having
an interview with John 7. Reith, made
captain on May ., 1911 suppose In your

particular interview.
Q.-More than once? Ayes.

Yes. Indeed.

you followed In making the promotions

that money would help. Johnson TESTIFIED,

answer.
Heard from Hayes.
| Mr.. Buckner then switched over to the
statements made by Mr. Johnson con-
corning Norton and Sbeehan. Mr.. John
son said that ex-Shcrifr Hayes came to
his ONCE. at No. 1I5 Broadway, late in
December, 1911, TO- make friendly call,
and In the course Of this visit Mr.. Hayes
asked whether Mr.. Johnson knew that In

| Police Department Mr. Johnson then
said Mr.. Hayes said:
There is man named Norton who
has an Office in this building. and those
who are seeking police protection are

The Information aroused his particular
interest because Norton had an once in
