WAY INCREASE SIZE
OF POLICE STATION
Plans Said TO Contemplate the
Construction of Two Addi-
tional Stories to Structure.

Should plans which it is said are
now being talked of be completed, two
additional stories will be added to the
present quarters of The police depart
ment. For many months Mayor Sam
uel c. Park and Chief of Police 3. f..
Grant have been considering ways and
means of securing additional space
wherein to make many Improvements,
which they believe to be essential.
AT one time the city commissioners
had under consideration the purchase
of the old building of the Independent
Telephone company, but the commission
did not have the funds last year, and
made no provision this year for such
an expenditure, mhich it is said will az
rregate upward Of 100000.
The plans which are now said to be
under consideration contemplate the
construction Of new courtroom. the
arranging of room for the drilling of
patrolmen in the present criminal
courtroom, the installation Of modern
emergency hospital and the equipment
of quarters wherein to install the Ber'
tilIion and other identification systems
which were recently purchased by the
department
The walls of the police headquarters
are Of heavy masonry construction and
are believed TO be of sufficient strength
to carry the additional weight. Some
weeks ago Chief Grant wrote east to
ascertain plans Of modern iails and
police headquarters, and IL is thought
that when these plans are received by
him active consideration Of the project
will be Undertaken.
Mayor Park admitted last night that
the present quarters of the department.
were thought to be inadequate, and
that there had been talk of improve
meuts. Just what turn the improve
ments would take the mayor refused
to say.

that Sampah had been beaten or kicked
and that his condition was extremely Sc

man should be taken to a hospital at

raise funds for that purpose, Sampah,

in pushing the work forward. accord
ing to a recent report now In the hands
of the federal government. The report
OF the engineers In chief recommends
the adoption Of uniform gauge Of 4
feet Sh inches (the existing New
South Wales gauge) on the grounds Of
the comfort and convenience OF pas
sengers. the facility OF transfer Of
troops and merchandise. and the re-
duction Of rolling stock. Owing to the
huge cost of bringing about complete
uniformity, 1t Is suggested that az a
preliminary step the through lines
from Fremantle to Brisbane uncluding
the tran.Australian line now under
construction) should be converted to
1 feet Sh inches at a cost Of 60.710,.
900. The engineers strongly urge that
the work of conversion should be be-
gun without delay, and 1t Is pointed
out that In 1897 the estimated cost OF
converting the s feet 3 inch gauge
lines in Victoria and South Australia
to the 4 feet Sis inch gauge was only
l1,sOO.0oo against $36.475.000 at the
present time.
