CHIEF OF POLICE BAKER
RETURNS TO DUTIES
Milford Police Officer Had Been OF
Duty For Months Due To Injuries

Chief of Police Baker, who was
severely injured when struck by an
automobile seven months ago, has
so far recovered that he has return
ed to duty. Chief Baker was hurt
late one night seven months ago
when he attempted to stop an au-
tomobile at the eastern entrance to
Milford. The driver of the car be-
came confused and struck officer
Baker. He was seriously injured
and spent several months at the
Marshall Hospital, later going to
his home where his recovery was
SLOW While the leg injury which he
sustained at the time of the acci-
dent has not fully cured, it has ad-
vanced to the stage where he is
able to go about his duties. Most of
his activities since returning to
duty have been in the nature of pa
trolling the city in a car. Officer
Koschi, who acted as relief for
Chief Baker, made such a good rec
ord for himself during the absence
of the injured officer that the city
officials have made him a perma-
nent member of the police force.
The Milford police force is probably
the best at the present time in the
history of the city.

ever, Considers Only Trials

Delaware is still one of the dis
tricts of the country where the Fed
eral government has lost during the
past fiscal year, so per cent or more
of the liquor cases tried by juries.
According to the annual report of
Attorney General William D. Mitch

eastern Arkansas, Delaware, north
ern Iowa, eastern Louisiana, New
Mexico, eastern New York, Puerto
Rico, western Tennessee, Vermont
and Wyoming.
Generally surveying the prohobi-

trict courts, Attorney General
Mitchell states that there were 48.S
convictions to each acquittal in
1892; "a to 1 in 1881; and 26 to I
in 1880.
However, while the attorney gen.
erals office in Delaware may have
lost so or more per cent. of its liquor
cases at trial, U. S. District Attor-
ney Wales has been able to secure
convictions of a large majority of
the liquor cases brought into the U.
S. District Court, because at each

fourths of the defendants plead
guilty and are Immediately SEN
