RusslA's POLICE SYSTEM.
Il Has an Assistant In Every House In
St. PETERSBURG.


The Russlan police system Is ex
tremely complicated. for 1t practical,
gives RUSSIA an assistant policeman ii
every house ia st Petersburg. The
landlord has private porter or acts as
porter himself. A porter has authority
20 make an arrest. and he Is Obliged to
rush from the house TO the street al
the sound OF police whistle.
As there is a policeman stationed at
every block. which is the limit Of his
beat, and as every policeman within
certain radius may respond with the
porters to the signal. 1t takes but
few seconds TO get a platoon Of uni
formed men. with almost a regiment
Of porter policemen together
Russia has also u most elaborate
system of training Its policemen. and
some time ago there was opened at
St Petersburg a fully equipped police
mans college. designed to train men In
all the various duties Of an officer Of
the law. At this college policemen are
made familiar with the tools used by
criminals. their teachers holding that
they cannot become proficient police
men in any other way.
The Russian policeman attends lee
lures at which burglars methods and
instruments are explained. so that be
can checkmate them, while he has the
advantage Of the criminal museum
which is attached to the college There
every appurtenance known TO the
breaker OF the law must be expert
