At least II seemed reasonable TO expect

this Is the way nothing happened:
Martin Owens, who held a lieutenancy

Department az a first grade detective
He became possessed of the alleged In

ney James f. Smith had referred TO him
as Lahey's stool pigeon. Owens went to
Swami about Il and the latter called in
Smith, who made q vigorous denial,
That was enough for Mr.. Swami.

that he had got his Information from

HYLAN TRANSFERS
REINSTATEMENTS
TO COMMISSION
Power Formerly Enjoyed
by Enright and brennan
Is Taken Away.
OLD SYSTEM ABUSED
Corporation Counsel Now to
Act as Chairman of Board
Hearing Applications.

Mayor Hylan has taken nom his
Police and Fire Commissioners the
power of reinstating members of the
force who have been discharged, it be-
came known yesterday. That pre-
rogative now is lodged in a commission
Of review for each department, APP
pointed by the Mayor. The personnel
of each board is such that the Com
missioner of one department aids in
passing upon applications for rein
statement in the other department,
but neither commissioner sits in the
reviewing board for his own depart
ment.
The creation of this machinery fol-
lows a considerable amount of criti-
cism directed chiefly against Police
Commissioner Enright for wholesale
reinstatement of policemen who had
been dismissed from the service for
offences of various sorts.
The board which now will review APP
plications for reinstatement In the Po~
lice Department consists OF the Corpora
ton Council, chairman; the Fire Com
missioner and the Chief Inspector of
Police. The reviewing board of the Fire
Department is composed Of the Corpora
ton Counsel. chairman; the Police Com
missioner and the Chief of the Fire De-
partment.
Applications for reinstatement in
either department must be made to the
Mayor who refers it to the proper re-
viewing body for investigation. Upon
recommendation of the board the Mayor
forwards the application to the depart
rental commissioner with instructions
to honor or reject the application.
The New York herald. [volume] (New York, N.Y.) 1920-1924, 1920-12-16

No formal announcement of the new
system regulating reinstatements has
been made, and considerable secrecy and
mystery was thrown about the scheme
yesterday by the Corporation Counsel
and several others who We're questioned.
The Corporation Counsel refused to
throw any light on the plan at all, and
referred his ipterviewers to the Mayor.
The organization and the personnel of
the boards were confirmed by Fire Com
missioner brennan, however.
The new plan is said TO have been the
idea of Mayor Hylan and to have been
born of the alleged abuses of the former
system OF allowing commissioners to
pass upon the applications for reinstate-
ment of men who might have been dis
charged at the instance of such COM
missioner.
Commissioner Enright announced last
night that incomplete returns of the
police vote taken in the station houses
last Monday to determine IL the rank
and file of the department want the
proposed police hospital indicate that
about eight out Of nine members voted
in favor of the institution. OF the S.523
votes canvassed so far 7,407 voted yes
and 1116 voted no. There are about
5000 votes still to be counted.
All of these ballots were cast in the
police stations, and the voting police
man was required to mark his ballot
with his name and the number of his
shield. Last Tuesday night the day
after the station house voting. the
Patrolmen's Benevolent Association
held a meeting at which none but dele
gates were permitted and at which the
ballots cast were secret. At this meet
ing the vote was 16S against the pro-
posed hospital and only for It.

SMALL FIRE OCCURS
AT GARTLY-RAMSAY

Considerable fright was occasioned to
the patients and nurses at the CARLY
Ramsay hospital, sos Jackson avenue,
by fire which originated in the operat-
ing room on the second floor Of the in
stitution and which did about $500
damage before being subdued by fire
men. The fire did not reach sufficient
proportions TO cause the removal of any
of the patients from the hospital, though
several were moved from the front end
of the second floor near the operating
room to back rooms on the same floor.
The fire occurred at 1240 pm. Satur-
day afternoon.
The fire was caused by \ defective
flue pipe, which carries off the fumes
from the gas sterilizer in the operating
room. This pipe became overhsated and
ignited the woodwork of the room
through which it passed, and the coping
lust outside the room, causing some
damage to the roof of the building. The
fire started during the absence, from
the operating room of Miss johnnie Ed
wards, the nurse in charge there, who
happened to be at lunch.
There we're between so and rs patients

DANIELS REVEALS
NEW SIMS PLEAS
Secretary Shows How Admiral
Accepted Decorations
Abroad.

WASHINGTON, Feb. AFTER con-.
gress passed a law permitting Ameri-
can officers to accept decorations from
foreign governments, President Wilson
directed the state department to in
form all European governments that
the United States did not wish any
awards made. Secretary Daniels dis
closed today before the senate COM
mittee investigating naval awards.
Before the president acted, Mr..
Daniels said, Rear Admiral Sims had
been informed by the chief of the bu-
reau of navigation of the passage Of
the law and had accepted a decoration
from the king of England and had au-
thorized Admiral Rodman, then COM
handing the American battle division
with the British grand fleet. and Rear
Admiral Strauss, directing the laying
of the North sea mine baFrage, to &C
cept decorations.
Admiral Sims was informed by Sec
rotary Daniels of the presidents ac-
ton, the secretary continued. and he
wrote asking whether he should return
the medal to the king. MIR. Daniels
said he replied that in view of the ac-
ton taken, presumably before Presi-
dent Wilson'S request reached the
king there was nothing that could be
done and that, Of course, the decora-
tons already accepted could not be re-
turned. He expressed the hope at the
time, he said, that no other foreign
decorations would be given except such
as might be awarded for courageous
conduct in battle.
