OTHER COMPLAINTS NEAR

Merchants in west Harlem and Wash
agton Heights formally protested yes
terfay against the recent order OF Com
missioner Enrght abol;shing the La
Sale street West 125th street, police
station. At meeting of the executive
committee Of the Harlem Board Of Com
nerce, 290 T.enox avenue. a resolution
saying that the station is needed i'm
peratively. was adopted and copies sent
to the Mayor. the president of the Board
Of Aldermen and the Police Commits

The resolution was presented by
Francis Wright Clinton and DR.. j..
Gardner Smith. 1t was urged that II
the station is restored Cart. Patrick F.
Gargan. who was transferred to the
West 135th street station, be reinstated
at La Sale street. because of his
familiarity with the district.
The precinct formerly took in some
OF the most important points in Harlem
including Columbia University. the Col
lege of the City of New York. st. Lulke's
and Knickerbocker hospitals. the Fort
Lee ferry. &c. 1t was pointed out that
under the new order there is now no
police station nearer than Tooth street
Local merchants associations in Chel-
sea and Yorlxville are likely to follow
suit with protests. They are fearful,
that without the West Twentieth street
and East Eighty-eighth street stations
burglaries. robberes and holdups in
those sections will increase. Several
years ago Commissioner Enright consid-
cred abolishing the Mercer street sta
ton, south of Washington Square, which
takes In the lower end Of the fur and
garment district. Petitions were circu-
lated. and such storm OF protest was
aroused that the plan was abandoned.
The latest reorganization. however
came without warning. The order was
published Sunday morning and went into
effect Sunday midnight. The Commits
sioner consulted no one, 1t was said at
Police Headquarters. He intimated yes
terday that these changes are only the
beginning of general shifting about of
men and stations, with the abandonment
of several more precincts and the erec-
tion of about ten new station houses
At the Fifth Avenue Associations in
tercity luncheon at the Biltmore. Mayor
Hylan paid to Commissioner Enright the
compliment of being "the best head OF
the Police Department since the days of
Inspector Byrnes."
The new station houses which Com
missioner Enright expects to build will
be erected on sites which he considers
more conveniently situated than are
the present stations. He said:
II will not place a new house on any
of the present locations, unless we con-
slider it an ideal place for service. The
only house I can think of that will be
replaced by new structure on the old
site is the Bergen street station.

The Commissioner added that he
hoped to build new houses in Glendale.
Rockaway and Jamaica. in Queens.
Mr.. Enright also has asked for funds to
purchase motor cars to extend the motor
patrol system.

which is around the corner. the doctor
was at dinner, and she was informed
that he was not to be disturbed. 1t was
still before o'clock. and the doctors
office hours were from 6 to o'clock.
That rumor gained such strength that
a crowd formed and marched to the
doctors office.
Witnesses said that between 800 and
400 persons remained for some time
outside DR.. Abels office until Patrolmen
Lotterhof, Tumma and King arrived.
DR.. Abel was not in his Office last
night, but an attendant said that he
left about 8 o'clock and had not'returned
