the Ulster question before war broke
out and for this reason the British

QUICK CHANGE BY
POLICE BOARD


Reid for a report. The present mark
ing is quickly worn off.
Two letters commencing the SER
vices of the police in handling large
crowds were received by the board.
One was from Assistant City Engi-
neer James C. Hallock for the way
in which the police took care of Wis
itors to Port Newark on Port Newark
Terminal Day, October 20 last. The
other was from the State Council Of
the Junior Order Of United American
Mechanics for the police supervision
over the recent parade of the order
in this city With the1atter commu-
nication was check for 500 to be
turned into the police pension fund.
Patrolmen S. r Coonradt and John
f. Steekman were assigned to duty
in the motorcycle squad. They are
two of the six whom the board de-
cided at its last meeting to assign to
the squad as soon as machines could
be procured Patrolman Theodore
Schaeffer. of the Second precinct, was
transferred to the First precinct and
detailed to regular traffic at Branford
place and Broad street.
On suggestion of Commissioners
Bigelow, the board will request from
the Civil Service Commission a list
OF 100 men eligible to be appointed to
the police force. While all of these
may not be appointed. and while the
appointments may not be made i'm
mediately, it is probable that at least
fifty men will be placed on the force
before the 250th anniversary celebra-
tion opens. next year.
Commissioner Reid suggested that
the board look into the state of the
police budget before taking steps to
appoint more men to the force, but 1t
was pointed out that it is not neces-
sary to make the appointments when
the list is received.
Patrolman Robert e. Scanlon, of
the Sixth precinct, was fined one
days pay on charge of sending IN
late duty pull. He was warned by
the commissioners against further in
fraction of the department rules.

Text of the Document-Will

WASHINGTON, July To- While
officials today in the absence OF
President Wilson expressed no opin-
ions. they did not conceal the fact
that the German reply is entirely
unsatisfactory.
They plainly considered that the
situation is fraught with dangerous
possibilities and preferred to leave
the entire matter in the hands OF
President Wilson.
While Secretary Lansing said he
had no reason to doubt the correct
ness of the press version he would
not make up his mind until he had
received a full text of the reply. He
said he would not discuss the note
until he had gone over it with the
president. He substantiated just
what offieialdom and the rest of
Washington said nothing in fact.
The question was raised as to
whether the president might not
consider that the negotiations had
gotten nowhere and that the time
had come for something besides
notes for instance. the breaking on
of diplomatic relations between the
two governments. The best posted
officials. speaking anonymously and
unofficially, ventured the guess that
this course would not be followed
and that there would be nothing in
the nature OF an ultimatum in the
reply to Germany They did be-
lieve, however. that the president
would insist on all of his original
contentious. The general view was
that Germany's concessions were no
