Chief SMITH TO
KEEP LID TIGHT
WILL NOT TOLERATE WHITE
SLAVERY, SABBATH BREAKING
OR FRAME-UPS IN BOXING
JUMPS RIGHT INTO WORK.

New Haven, Jan. 21-'My whole pol
icy and aim said Chief Philip Smith,
who was appointed yesterday by Mayor
Frank J. Rice to the position of head
OF the New Haven police department,
when he was asked regarding his at
t1tude towards the future work of the
police officers in the way in which
they may best serve the city, and I
feel confident that they will serve me
to the best of their ability. My whole
success and the entire success of the
department lies in the Individual ef-
forts of each Of the members Of the
police department, and success can
only be obtained through this means. p"
Regarding the work he will take up
as the police chief, he said: ''Of course
I have not had time to give any ex-
as I have only been chief a few short
hours. I have already started some
changes in the department in relation
to the shifting of the men and the
precincts. About handling the saloon
question, I have always felt that the
man on the beat is the man to take
charge of this question and lend his
of the law, liquor or otherwise SO that
the time will come soon when it will
not be necessary to have special de-
done considerable lately towards the
suppression of vice in this city
through the recent crusade against
Prindle street; 1t has been thorough.
long as remain chief of the police
department. We will not tolerate any
white slavery, of course. and as fast
as we detect those implicated in it
they will be dealt with severely
What is your attitude on opening
the nicolets and theatres on sun
days2'' the chief was asked. Nothing
dotng!'' he at once exclaimed. 1.-The
nico1ets will not open on Sunday I'M
til the state legislature Iegalizes it.
Until then they remain closed"
The repOFt6r then, VSntured that
the sporting element of the city might
be interested to know of his stand on
the Sunday baseball and on the local
boxing question. Chief Smith express
ed himself as being a lover Of good,
clean athletics, but would not tolerate
anything else. He said: Regarding
the Sunday baseball situation in this
city, our jurisdiction extends only
through the first twelve wards of the
city. The Lighthouse Point baseball
park is in the Fifteenth ward and we
can only act there when we receive
complaints that the law is being vio-
lated. These points. however Will be
dealt with when they come up.
81 have always been a lover of good,
clean boxing. A good, clever exhibit
ton Is all right, but shall draw the
line on the other kinds of exhibitions.
There have been several apparent
'frame-ups' in the game in this city,
and I shall endeaVor- to put a stop
to this and restore the game to an
rule to look into the card for the
fight so that I may judge whether the
men are evenly matched or not before
I grant any permits. If they are not
nit. I shall also see to it that the
men running the show are in a. posi-
ton to carry out all that they adver-
tise. This will protect the public
f'I have no thought of establishing a
boxing commissioner. That may come
later"

Quoted with much secrecy, and the

There is undoubtedly a feeling
among many Irish Catholics that al

furnished men of great intellect and
attainments. no one ok the number for
the last three generations has been in

This fact has made them believe af-

ed. 1t is a serious fact that neither
of the great parties in New York State
has had the courage to nominate a
man for Governor who happened to
be an Irish Catholic.
I voted for William Sulzer in the
convention because I believed he de-
served the nomination and was strong
full to see delegates, chiefly Cath olics
opposing Martin Glynn and Judge
Bowling on the ground that their re-
Hgious belief rendered them unavaiI-
able. And it turned out on election
day that Mr.. Glynn ran high man on

There is a curious superstition il.

Senator Francin Herman of Utica was
defeated for Governor forty years ago
that no man of Irish extraction need
apply. AS a matter of fact. accord

have often talked, his father ran ahead
of his ticket in non-Catholic districts
and behind only in certain places
where political factions reigned, and
besides 1872 was a great Republican

PARIS. THE BEAUTIFUL
AND THE MAGNIFICENT.

Rev. r. S. Povey, pastor of Trinity
M. 3. Church, who spent ten weeks
in Europe last summer will lecture
this evening at his church in North
avenue, on Paris. the Beautiful and
the Magnificent The history of
Paris is so interviewer with that of
the French Revolution of 1889 that
knowledge of the causes, remote and
near, and of the results of the Rev
oIutton is most essential 10 an intel
1igent understanding of the present
social and religious conditions in
Paris. Inasmuch as Mr. Povey has
specialized in philosophy and history,
there is no doubt but the subject of
the evening will receive it's proper
historical setting and interpretation
Seventy-ffve views of Paris and its
suburbs, including Fountaineb1eu and
Versailles, will be thrown upon the
screen. The life of the French capital
will be wildly portrayed, and special
reference will be made to the present
hopeful outlook of the French Repub-
lie, and to what the lecturer thinks
is the crying shame and also the inn
mediate need of Paris and all the 9TH
er large cities in France.
