PLEASED WITH VERDICT Gives Out Statement on Commissioners 
 Action.

Reinstated to office by the police commissioners and Mayor Wilson last night, Superintendent of Police John H. Redgate returned to headquarters this morning and again took over the management of the department
 In a statement regarding the action of the commissioners last night, Su- perintendent Redgate said this morn ing:
 For the police department of the city of Bridgeport, I wish to thank the general public for the way they have stood behind the department during the investigation of vice con- ditions in this city. I also wish to thank the press for the fair manner in which it has handled all pha ses of the situation.
 q am pleased with the verdict of the police commissioners, not only because I alone, but the entire po- lice department has been vindicated. That is all can say at the present time."
 Assistant Superintendent Charles H. SuckIey, who was appointed acting superintendent following the suspen- sion of John H. Redgate, was at his desk this morning, but declined to comment on the action of the com missioners-
 Lieutenant Patrick Flanagan, whG will become head of the department July Is, could not be reached this morning, and Lieutenant Thomas H. Flood, who has been selected for the office of assistant superintendent. had nothing to say.
 At police headquarters, the promo tions have been well received, but came as great surprise. It was not generally believed that the com missioners would boost Eeutenants ever the heads of the various cap- tains who were candidates for the po- sitions of superintendent and assf$ tant superintendent.

 Rising from his seat near the law yers' table, Mayor Wilson told the judge that evidence of another rob- bery alleged to have been committed by Nichols was in the hands of the prosecuting attorney, but had not been presented to the court. The mayor therefore dema nced that bonds be raised to more than S2,0O0.
