POLICE IN NEW UNIFORMS.

length as an ordinary civilians coat.
The old coats dropped halfway to the
knees. The coat is of a double
breasted style, which protects the
chest we'll, the under side of the gar
ment reaching entirely across the
front of the body.
The collar is high enough to COM
pletely cover the small standing col
lar which many of the men on the
force wear. No distinction between
the patrolmen and the corporals and
captains is made in the buttons OF the
new uniforms, as was done on the old
ones. The new have two rows OF but
tons extending down each side OF the
coat. The old had two rows for cor
porals and captains and one row for
patrolmen.
The belt and baton for holding an
officers stick, which was feature
of the old uniform, is abolished in

mans coat has a small 'T' on the
collar. The men on the force say the
