Cope With Vicious Criminals.

Cope with VICIOUS Crlmlnals.
THE police take custody of many
vicious criminals, who are armed and
ready to kill, if need be, to escape. No
sensible person would expect, much
less desire, an officer under such con-
ditions to take any chance, either Of
suffering an injury himself or of los
ing his prisoner. If errors of judg-
ment are made, they usually favor the
prisoner, because the policeman ac-
cepts unreasonable risks many times,
rather than run any risk of having
charges made against him by well
meaning, but misguided individuals
who are shocked at the rough hand
ling of a prisoner, but have no con-
sideration for the policeman. 1t
should be borne in mind that officers
who find themselves in trouble with a
prisoner. not only have a lawful right
to protect themselves from assault,
but the right to use such force as may
be necessary to make good the arrest,
even to the extent in the case of
felony of killing the prisoner If neces-
sary to prevent his escape. Natural
ly, it must be left to the judgment of

Attack Called CowardIy.

I'VE also received a complaint from,
another man who had been held at No
station house, under a charge Of
being intoxicated. The complainant ad-
mitted the truth of the charge. and
that while in the station he NAV also
have been noisy. But in any event he
was in a defenseless condition at the
station, and whether it was because he
was noisy or profane there certainly was
no justification for the brutal assault
made upon him while in No. 9. The
prisoner was a small man, as compared
with the average sized policeman. and
under the circumstances the attack on
him was a cowardly one. The evidence
showed that he was struck on the law
with blow of the fist with such force
that his jaw was badly broken on both
sides and the man permanently injured
In this case, also, the inspector who
Investigated the charges for the Police
Department was of the oRnion the as
sault occurred as alleged, but it is only
fair to the department in this case to
record that the individual who COM
mitted this outrageous attack could not
be positively identified by the prisoner,
and the officer therefore could not be
brought before the trial board. He in
terrogated the officers who were on duty
in this station the night of the assault,
and all denied any knowledge of it, 1t
seems strange that such an outrageous
assault could be committed in a station
where there were several officers, whose
duty it was to protect their prisoners,
and none of them should know anything
about the occurrence.

similar situation. and the complain
ant is referred to by name because

MADISON
Car Has Narrow Escapc

A close shave to fatal accident
as the train was pulling into the
Madison station Saturday evening
made the large number of persons
on the station platform gasp with
apprehension. An automobile driv-
en- by Miss Billings started up the
mill just as the train was whistling
into the station and in changing
gears to make the grade stalled the
car. The brakes failed to work and
the car started arriving at the edge
Of the station platform just few
feet ahead of the engine. By
lucky chance the auto swerved
slightly, striking the high edge of the
platform so the car was partially
stopped and did not go only part way
across.
