done not for any cause or neglect of
duty on the part of the present COM
manders, but simply for the good of
the service. We believe that with
new heads of the various precincts
the work of the department will be
more effectual, inasmuch as a COM
mander too long in command Of one
territory Is liable to have his effeo-
tlveness descended.
Another point which / wish to en-
phasize is the fact that our police
department should have the position
Of inspector created. There should be
someone second in command to the
chief, and feel now, as / have for
some time since, that we should have
an inspector.
"I do not say that policemen stand
at the corner of Broad and Market
streets or anywhere else smoking a
cigar, but IL there was an inspector,
whose hours and tours of duties were
unknown, no such condition would
prevail in the fture, shold they exist
at present"
The dominant rumor about the City
Hall is to the effect that at next
Thursdays meeting Captain Long
will be nominated for the position of
chief and that his name will be sent
to the Common Council for its con-
firmation at its October meeting, on
the following Friday, and that Lieu
tenant Frank w. Tuite, of the de-
tective bureau, will be promoted to
fill the vacancy caused by Captain
Longs promotion.
1t Is not considered, however, that
Tuite will be sent to command the
Fifth precinct, which is now COM
manded by Long, but that he will be
assigned to the detective bureau,
succeeding Captain William Carroll,
who has been in charge of that de-
partment for a number of years.
AS to what will be done with Cap
tain Carroll Is problematical. 1t Is
thought that for the present he will
be assigned to the command of the
First precinct, and that Captain Mi
chae1 Ryan, the present acting chief,
but commander of the First precinct,
will be sent to the Fifth precinct.
The runor Is also to the effect that
Captains John Brown, of the Second
precinct; Peter j. Christie, of the
Third precinct; Oscar Vogel. of the
Fourth precinct. and Samuel Brown,
of the Sixth precinct, will also be
shifted.
1t is also believed that Joseph Cor
dano, second on the list of lieuten-
ants for promotion to captaincy,
will be elevator, and also that
Thomas CORDIALLY, the third on the
list, will be advanced. Should the
position of inspector be created an
other civil service examination would
have to be held among the captains.
1t is believed that following the
making of Tuite captain, Cordano
will be named to command the SUBJ
precinct in Vailsburg, and that Cor
bally will be made to fill the posi-

LONG IS ENDORSED
! BY POLICE BOARD
But official Action Will Come
Later-Blg Department Shift
Now Being Arranged.

President John Baader, of the
Board of Police Commissioners,
stated today that there would be no
demand by the board for list of
three eligibles for the position of
chief to succeed the late Chief Cor
bitt. He declared that the name of
Captain Michael T. Long, commander
of the Fifth precinct, who was the
only successful one of the five cap
tains to take the examination for the
vacancy, would be accepted.
That there will be a general SHIFT
of the heads of the various police
precincts of the city was evidenced
yesterday afternoon, when the Board
of Police Commissioners failed TO
nominate Captain Long as acting
chief of police pending his cont1rma-
ton by the Common Council on Fri
day night.
Speaking of Captain Long Is ease,
Commissioner Bladder said:
Captain Long will be nominated by
the Board of Police Commissioners
next Thursday Afternoon and his name
will be Immediately forwarded to the
Common Council on Friday for Its
confirmation. Acting Chief of Police
relieved of his duties as such, and 1t
was deemed best that another acting
chief should not be named this week"
Regarding the proposed shift of Of
flcials, Mr.. Bladder said:
1.-THE commissioners have decided
that when another chief was named
he should be chief in fact, and not
only in name. With this object in
view yesterday Afternoon named
Commissioners Scanlon and DeVoe
and Secretary Cox as committee of
three to visit Baltimore today and to-
morrow and study the police con-
ditions of that city, in as much as
the two departments are more similar
than any other two cities, and to re-
port back before the special meeting
of the board on Thursday.
I'VE have no fault to find with the
police conditions of Newark, and In
making a shift, which Is contem-
plated, such Is not to be interpreted
as a 'shake-up.' The probabilities are
that there will be a general shifting
of precinct commanders. This will be

up the entire matter because IT could
not be secured in a few minutes. He
is satisfied, he said, to take the word

that If 1t is found satisfactory, TO

NAMING Of OWENS
FREE OF POLITICS
Selection of Local Court House
Attendants Was Made from
Civil Service List.

The action Of the finance commit
tee of the Board Of Freeholders in
refusing 10 fix salaries for James E
Givens and Patrick J. Cream. recently
appointed court attendants by Sheriff
John +. Monahan, has caused consid-
cradle stir in the Court House. The
reason assigned by the finance COM
mittee. which asked County Counsel
Benjamin +. Jones for an opinion in
the matter. Is that there were no va
caneies existing and the right of the
sheriff to create new positions Is
questioned.
Under Sheriff James F. Hyland con-
tends that the sheriff had a perfect
right TO make the appointments.
THE prosecutors Office requested q
couple of extra court attendants to
serve subpoenas," said Mr.. Hyland
today, "and as all the available court
attendants were busy with court dp-
ties. 1t was necessary TO appoint two
new men.
"A list Of names was furnished tbs

ply appointed the two men whose
names headed that list. Those names
happened TO be those of Mr.. Glvens

Trials of a New Stenographer.

When the new little stenographer
got home last evening her cheeks were
an angry red and her eyes were full
of unshed tears.
Mother knew something had hap
pened. Lots of things happened to new
little stenographers that are heart
breaking. They are things that one
saves to bring home, where one can
cry without being laughed at. and
where one can say the things one
thinks about the boss.

swore at me, motherl He isn't salts

and getting two girls work out of me-

at besides.
This morning he called me into his
room for dictation. There he sat. the

when he talks--with his hat on the
back Of his head. Say he said, close

wherein the play was of higher calibre
and more entertaining to the spectators
than that of any previous year; that in
addition, while 1t might be argued that
many of the old-school players missed
the steady, continuous progress down
the field which was possible some years
ago, the value of the extra down with

The Bombahook Club, situated In the

again opened to its members, Saturday
evening, after being closed for the past
week while repairs and alterations were
being made. With i,f feopening. Satur-
day evening, Its inel.pers were greeted
with somewhat different spectacle than
that they had left the week before. Ev-

billiard room. the card room, the read
Ing room, and the writing room. had In
some way been altered. or improvements
the individual member.
The most extensive improvements were
made in the pool and billiard room. To
begin with. wainscoting of paneled
wood about four feet high had been
built around the four sides of the room,
giving it very neat effect, and one that
will remain neat after long periods of
wear and tear. Then the pool and bill
lizard tables were recovered with the best
obtainable materials and by a skilled
workman. The cue racks also received
some attention, and rubber mating was
placed on the floor. Then came the card
and reading rooms, and the hall. where
the improvements were slight but very
noticeable. And last came the writing
room, which now well deserves the name
of music room, for with the addition
of a piano, few weeks ago. the MEM
bers and guests are treated to little bits
OF melody that will range from rags"
to the classics" and which adds greatly
to the different forms of amusement
which the club now possesses. The wood
work throughout had been revarnished,
and the entire suite of rooms present
far different appearance from what they
did at the time of the clubs dedication.
It's membership reaches nearly 60, includ-
ing the lawyers, merchants and business
men, and ii is really the only social or
ganization for men only in this city.
From the start it has been successful
financially, and it now enjoys pros
perity that is due TO the incessant efforts
of each and every one of its go members
to make it a success.
