FLANAGAN GETS MORE POWER AS
 POLICE CHIEF
Will Work Out Changes In Department
 Platoon c

Superintendent of Police Patrick Flanagan was given full power last night at meeting of the police conn missioners to work out changes in the police department which will sfa- vor the abolishment of c platoon and which will provide Tor the permanent establishment of traffic posts at the avenue and other points in the East Side. In speaking of the proposed changes last night the superintendent said there was a-great need for more patrolmen to do day duty.
 In the establishment of three pIa- toons instead of four as heretofore it was pointed out that the men who went to makes up Platoon c and who quit at in the morning, could be reassigned to day duty. It is likely that some of the men of the c pla- toon will be assigned to inside work one task to be handled by some of them is operation of the switchboard at headquarters which is at the pres ent time being taken care of by girls.
 Captain Charles Wheeler of the Second precinct, formerly head of the traffic division of the force recom- mended that additional traffic posts be established at Kossuth street and Stratford avenue due to the increased traffic at that point since the jitneys were re-rOuted.
 A vote was taken at the meeting last night which resulted in the es- tablishment of a precedent that mes sages of coincidence and sympathy be sent to members of the force who had died while in the service of the police department. Tn behalf of the execu- tives the officers and men of the force, Captain Clayton Smith was in structed to send letter to the fam = fly of Policeman George A. Fitzgerald vi &p died last week. A similar letter seAt by the superintendent was read at the meeting last night.
 Seventeen members of the force were reported on the sick list. The matter of granting a police escort to the Christopher Columbus society for their Columbus parade was referred to the superintendent
 It was voted at the meeting last night to consider the case of Patrol man J. F. Murphy of the Third pre- cinct on next Monday night when Murphy will be arraigned before the board charged with neglect of duty in that he fell asleep while on duty guarding the Wheeler home on Brook1awn avenue on September 25 The question as to whether Murphy was under the influence of liquor at that time will be established.
