and placed in command of the new
ly-created Fifth precinct, Roseville
where he is still in charge.
His pleasing personality and nice
manners won many friendships, and
when it was decided that the position
of chief of the police department was
in the competitive class and that the
successor to Chief Corbitt must be
chosen through civil service examin-
alton, these well-wishers naturally
hoped for Longs success. 1t was
conceded that Long would have nc
easy row to hoe to win, as he was
pitted against such veteran police Of
ficers as Michael j. Ryan, John
Brown and Samuel Brown and Cap
tain of Detectives William Carroll,
each high-class man, experienced
and well informed as to Newark S
needs and conditions from a police
viewpoint.
Merits Carefully Weighed.
1t is said that the Civil Service
Commission had no easy time figur-
ing out the question of superiority
before deciding that Longs name
should lead all the rest. The claims
and merits of each were carefully
weighed and considered.
AS detective, the prospective
chief took conspicuous parts in many
cases that showed that he was ION
the job"
In 1906, Philip Metz murdered his
wife at their home in Great Jones
street, New York city. 1t was a
particularly atrocious crime. Metz
made his escape from New York, but
the metropolitan police were deter
mined to get him. He baffled their
efforts to capture him. The police
of every city in the country were
asked to aid in locating the fugitive.
Long, as were others, was given the
description of the man wanted. ="
While pursuing the usual course of
duty one night he met a stranger
on the canal bridge who struck him
as bearing strong resemblance to
the absentee, Metz. The fact that
the man was known as Murphy"
didn't alter Longs impression. He
took Murphy in custody. Muir
ply proved to be Metz. He adj
mitted his identity. confessed his
guilt and was formally turned over
to the New York authorities.
The killing of Thomas Maloney. an
ice man, by Thomas Eldridge, a
negro, on Sunday night May 90, 1900,
was peculiarly -blooded act and
caused great excitement Maloney
and Eldridge had wordy quarrel at
the corner of Seventh avenue and
Sheffield street. They We're parted
and the colored man went home and
procured a revolver. He returned

AMARILLO CREEKS
FIGHT IN EUROPE

Spero Barker. proprietor OF the
Amarillo Confectionery. near the
First State Bank. has Just received a
letter from lin Gyas aud Nick Ga
thas two Greeks. formerly OF ANA
rillo who last fan LETT this country
for Greece to espouse her cause. Ac-
complaining the letter is a photo

soldier regalia and bearing arms
According 10 the epistle received
the men have been making an enyi-
able record IN the old country Both
men are Well known in Amarillo.
Vherc they worked IN Spero Bark
ers confectionery There was no
compulsion from the Grecian govern
ment that they should respond To
the aid of that country. but like the
true Greek they are. they volunteer
ed their time ana LIVES to the ser
vice of the country which they had
only short time before left
Though they were In financial way
lettering themselves In the new
country Of America, they could not
see their home country 20 into the
war with anything Ike defeat staring
them ne the face
Spcro Barker himself had decided
10 20 last fall when the cruN was on
in the war. he tried To dispose OF
his holdings SO that In case he should
have TO lay down his life that he
would not have his property incum
bcrod by any peculiar features which
might arise. He regretted yer, much /
that he could not shoulder the gun
tn defense of his home country hut |
be receives quite a bit OF comfort IN
knowing that the Grecian nation Is
winning her spurs though her force /
is small. he takes great interes, |
IN the maneuvers Of the army and |
especial notice OF the battles in 1
which his former consorts engage.
II is likely that Giyas and Nick |
Gathas will return to Amarillo when .
the war terminates should their
lives be spared The battles that .
they have fought In have been hard F.
ones accompanied by much carnage .
At present the war Is on in Bulgaria .
and it appears that the situation is
a. serious as II was In the first stages
