THE SUBWAY PA
IRON FOR CONCEALED
DYNAMITE

After the first excitement of the affair had
passed over every police official who knew the
facts commended Kilroy for his action. Even
Reilly, from his bed in the hospital to which
he was taken, made plea for the man who
had shot him. Unable to talk, he Scrawled
note to Commissioner Woods in which he asked
hat Kilroy be exonerated in any investigation.
Another test in which the entire city par
ticipated occurred during the winter, while
bomb scares and spy activities had caused the
public pulse to beat considerably faster than
dcbonair New York's pulse usually does.
Shortly before o'clock on Saturday night
every policeman in Manhattan was ordered 70
watch the subways for person carrying u
bundle that might contain dynamite. Just
what was in the mind of the Commissioner Of
Police only his closest associates know. 1t was
denied at the time that the order was sent ouc
solely as test of police guarding the subways
1t was limited that it was means Of thwartng
spies who were planning the placing of 'dyna
mite at some point in the subways.

The Actors Protest.
There has been a renewal of the afi-
tation to allow actors who are profess
sionally absent from their homes on
election day to vote by mail.
We have no doubt that an Actors
Anti-Suffrage Association has been
formed to protest against such legisla
ton on the following grounds:
Because suffrage is not a privilege.
but a duty, and the lives of actors are
already sufficiently burdened
Because the actors place is on the
stage. What would become of civiliza-
ton and art il actors deserted the STAG
for the polling booth?
Because it would be undemocratic &c
allow actors to vote. Not all of them
have demanded the privilege: and
noisy minority should not be allowed to
force it on the great, silent. stage-loving
majority.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1916-07-09

Because actors are sufficiently repre-
scented as it Is. Any actor is free to 90
to local ticket seller and induce him
by the means of indirect influence 20
vote as he (the actor, not the ticket
seller) wishes. If the actor himself
voted also, his vote would either dupli-
cate or nullify the vote of the local ticket
seller. Is this fair?
Because government is founded on
force. Actors could not enforce their
will against the will of the whole COM
munity. AS they could not enforce the
law, they should not make the law.
Because every one knows that no class
Is dearer To the electorate than actors.
Every actor who demands the vote is
practically declaring himself discomfort
ed with this electorate. Should we en-
courage discomfort?
Because the idea that the ballot would
insure actors engagements and higher
salaries IS utterly unsOund.
Because in those states where actors
already vote by mail it cannot be shown
that they have accomplished anything
of conspicuous benefit to the state.
Because actors now form a non-parti-
san group outside of politics. They are
free to appeal to all parties to further
legislation in which they are interested

Ho2c "the Rookie of the Scared Face
Tests the NeW York P0w0Iman'S
: Fitness for His Job.

When the rookie of the SCARED face is sent
out lieutenant is detailed as shadow to
keep close enough to him to prevent him from
getting into serious trouble with some over
Jealous policeman who might insist upon using
rough methods Of making an arrest. In justice
to the police of New York it may be added
that they seldom fail to recognize the man d.
scrbed. and the lieutenant usually is kept busy
rescuing him from patrolmen who think they
have bagged much-sought prize in making
his arrest
That there is an element Of danger in play
ing the role of criminal in these police lessons
was proved in a tragic manner in the shooting
of Patrolman Christopher Reilly while show
ing the value of police dogs in catching thieves
six weeks ago. Unfortunately, the test also
proved the efficiency of several detectives, with
the result that Reilly was shot in the mouth
and all but killed.
The police dog test had been scheduled %

Commissioner Woods had personally inter
ested himself in the exhibition and had ar
ranged that it should he staged before the box
in which he, Mayor Mitchell and other city
officials were reviewing the parade.
The test started off as scheduled The ner-
vous woman who clutched her hand bag by the
end of its leather handle had reached just the
right spot to permit those in the reviewing
stand to view her antics. Suddenly man
with every appearance of dope iend purse
snatcher stepped to her side, grasped the bag,
yanked it free from the leather handle and
started to run, while the woman screamed at
the top of her voice.
The purse snatcher in the person of Patrol
man Reilly, rushed straight for the reviewing

A DETECTIVE WHO BECAME AN
ANARCHIST FOR THE GOOD
OF THE SERVICE.

For four months Arnedo Puignano dropped
his identity as a city detective and became an
anarchist in everything but actual participa-
tion in their deeds Of violence He took part
in the meetings of the Bresci group, he spoke
as violently as did other members of the group,
he aided in planning the dyHamting Of the
cathedral. He swore mighty oath over 4
dagger and finally was selected as one Of tn
inner circle that was to carry out the plot
against the cathedral and its priests.
The one feature of PUlignano's days work
that was different from the daily programmes
Of the bomb makers and anarchistc plotter5
was that he made brief report to his superb
ors every twenty-four hours. Many times he
was compelled to risk everything in order to
escape for the requisite few minutes, and once
he was threatened with death by Red who
Swallowed him, suspecting him Of revealing the
secrets of the inner circle. But an ingenious
abb, prepared for just such an occasion
months before, permitted the detective to eva lc
suspicion thereafter.
At last, the morning Of March ,, 1919
the potters stole into the cathedral durin,
early mass. Puignano realizing that slip
would permit not only the escape of his CO.
conspirators but possible loss of life as well,
had figured to the fraction Of second the
time required for the fuse to burn an inch.
This calculation represented many hours of
work in the prcsenoe of the plotters.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1916-07-09

A youthful bomb maker thrust the bono
under a seat and lighted it with the end o.
his cigar, while Pulignano stood at his elbow.
Two minutes later two supposed scrubwomen
exhibited a surprising agility, tumbed the
anarchists over extinguishng the suffering
fuse and grasped them 50 firmly as to prevent
the possibility of struggle.
Even then Pulignano did not reveal MS
identity as a detective. Accompanying them
to Headquarters as a prisoner, he submitted
to the same third degree to which they were
subjected and, just as did the other prisoners,
he told conflicting stories and eyaded direct
answers as long as possible 1t was not until
the case actually came TO trial and the dc
tective appeared as the most important prose
cutting witness that the two anarchists, who
we're convicted through his testimony, dis
covered that they had been harboring a trait)c
in their councils.
: Dangerous? Pulgnano realized that it was,
but he also realized that unless he successfully
carried the plan through some other member
Of the force would and the coveted promotion
that follows such exploits would 90 to some
more fortunate comrade 1t may be added
in passing, that Pulignano was given his we'll
earned promotion.
One of the first moves Of the new police
man is that of revising his ideas of guilt and
innocence Under the law a man has the ad-
vantage of the presumption of innocence until
his guilt has been proved. But under tn
hair-trigger plan of procedure necessary in
-.
and every man is believed guilty until he
proves himself innocent.

A SUSPICIOUS CHARACTl
- THAT'S WHAT YOU AXE
To Nezy YorkS 1864 Policemen the
City Is Peobled by 5,253,SSo
Suspects, So There Is Nothing
Personal About It,

Whatever the purpose of the order may hive
been, it served to prove the thoroughness OF
the patrolmen upon whom the duty OF watch
ing subway passengers devoveG. Many
man, woman or child who complained at the
order to open a bundle for inspection by patrol
men will testify to the fact that no suspicious
character could have boarded a subway train
with so much as a fire cracker about HIM that
night-or the next day either. for that matter.
1t is a theory of Commissioner Woods, IL
common with numerous other heads of police
and detective agencies throughout the world,
that the real function Of the police Is to pre-
vent crime rather than detect and punish the
criminals after they have accomplished their
purpose. The subway watch was one method
of preventing a crime from being accom-
pshed. Many others have been prevented
in equally prompt moves by the entire force
but have not even been recorded in the city
archives in order that the method may remain
a secret for future use.
Every New Yorker knows how detectives,
disguised as scrub women, prevented the dyna-
hitting of St Patricks Cathedral a year ago
after the very match had been applied to the
bomb and it had been thrust under a bench at
which worshippers were at prayer. But the
entire story of the months of preparation that
led up to this denouement, during which mem-
bers of the department worked with the anar-
chst band and actually took part in the con-
structon of the bomb. probably never will be
known beyond the immediate circle involved
in the case.
