N. Y. INSPECTOR is HIT
HIGH POLICE OFFICIAL is sus-
PENDED FROM OFFICE.
Confession Of Captain Walsh on Sick
Bed Causes Downfall Of Himself
and His Superior Officer.

New York, Feb. S.-Commissioner
of Police Waldo. here Thursday, sus-
pended from the New York police
force Dennis Sweeney. inspector of
police. His name had been mentioned
in the graft confession made by Po-
lice Captain Thomas Walsh.
Commissioners Waldo also suspended
Captain Thomas Walsh, who confessed
on his sick bed that he was a CRATER
to the extent Of 100000, and had
Shared graft with an inspector of po-
lice, and another man higher up.
The commissioner took action as
soon as ne had confirmed from the
district attorneys Office the anthem
tion against the inspector had been
taken.
A deputy police commissioner Is
implicated by Walsh's confession and
his connection with the charges was
the subject during the day of investi-
cation both by Police Commissioner
Waldo and District Attorney Whit
man. Commissioner Waldo sum-
moned the official to his Office, with
two members of the staff Of the ac-
cused Inspector.
Walsh will tell his story to the grand
fury. Soon thereafter numerous in
dictments are expected.
Walsh's confession was made on his
sick bed. 1t was forced in part by
charges made by Policeman Eugene
Fox. who pleaded guilty to graft col
lections on February 8. and turned up
on Walsh as the man next above him.
Fearing that a heart weakness with
which he has long been troubled might
foreshadow his death, and wishing to
purge his conscience Captain Walsh
admitted taking vice graft to the ex-
tent of perhaps 100000 in a single po-
lice precinct. Half this amount he
turned over to those above him.

TAFT TRANSMITS REPORT OF
ALASKAN COMMISSION TO CON-
GRESS WITH MESSAGE.
FAv0Rs BUILDING OF LINES
Says No Matter Whether Government
Operates Carriers or Not It Should
Be the Possessor of Them and
Help Develop Country.

Washington, Feb. Accompanying
a report of the commissioners who
have been conducting an examina-
ton in Alaska with the idea of recon-
mending routes for the building of
railroads, President Taft on Thurs
day sent a message to congress in
which he favored governmental own
ership and private operation Of the
lines which may be constructed.
The commission recommends the
construction of two railroads in Alas
ka, which shall connect tide water on
the Pacific coast with the two great
inland waterways, the Yukon and the
k~uskokwim rivers. The railroads thus
recommended will constitute two indie
pendent systems, involving 1888 miles
of construction, at a cost of
$35, 0 600. The commission in its
report states in conclusion tina it lis
unanimously of the opinion that this
development should be undertaken at
once, and prosecuted with vigor; that
it cannot be accomplished without
providing for the railroads herein
recommended, or some system
which will insure low transportation
charges and the consequent rapid set
Element of this new land and the utili-
cation of it's great resources
President Taft in his message says:
THE necessary inference from the en-
tire report Is that, in the judgment of
the commission, it's recommendations
can certainly be carried out only ii
the government builds or guarantees
the construction cost of the railroads
recommended.
"If the government is to guarantee
the principal and interest OF the con-
struction bonds, it seems clear that 1t
should own the roads, the cost OF
which 1t really pays. This is true
whether the government itself should
operate the road or should provide
for their operation by lease or operat-
ing agreement. l am very much op-
posed to government operation, but /
believe that government ownership,
with private operation under leases, Is
the proper solution Of the difficulty,
here presented"
