HOW THE NIGHT SERVICE WAS WEABENED. ‘This was the mounting of 40 men of the city precincts, whieh ad te the 22 detalled ta various Places, diverted no less than ¢2 men from the important service éf night patrolinz, to the utter confusion of the system—the District force now presenting the extraordinary pneciace of 94 men coming off duty at 6 o'clock Pp. m. daily, while but 65 or 66 go on duty for the night, even if there are nene of the force sick or on keave. Besides this werked, but when the old THE QUESTION OF PAY comes in. The patrolimen received Poa, $100 month, vat it was reduced month, and there sur was no “kick,” for it was that at some time the pay would be Testored. In consequence of these 4e mounted = — allowed $20 per month for the care d feed of their horses, and the fallure of Con- gress to 60 Deyond the usual appropriation, it Was necessary, in order to pay this allowance, to take the money from others, and therefore the pay of 73 men, some of whom had been several years on the force was reduced each to $75 per month, 2nd they were com! tribute $15 per month towards feeding other men’s horses. ( (including those in the county.) There is another feature—the original act pro- viding for but 20 sergeants and the system re- quiring 3 sel ite to each of the eight pre- cincts, whose Bay 1 is now $95 per month, it has been necessary to-appoint 7 acting sergeants. These do the same duty as the full sergeants and have the proud satisfaction of being called “acting sergeant,” without the additional pay. SUGGESTED REVORMS. The general sentiment among friends of the force 1s that the mounted men should be dis- mounted, and permanent details should be dis- allowed except for the prevention of crime, and that there should be a restoration and equaliza- tion of pay (which can be done by doing away with mounted men in the city; that every man should have the same pay as other men doing the same duty; that the amount proposed to b? paid the new men ($60 per month) will not se- cure first-class men as a rule; that details to wharves and railroad depots should be discon- tinued and filled by private parties and be paid by the screens or companies who receive their services; and finally, that the government of the force should be under a board of eommals: sioners, as formerly.
