Assembled in Convention at Worcester ‘To-Day—The Platform. ‘WoRCESTER, Mass., October 7.-The demo- cratic state convention was called to order at 11:30 o'clock this morning by Hon. P. A. Col- ins, chairman of the state committee. The committee on permanent organization reported the name of John E. Fitzgerald for president and those of Col. J. W. Coveny and J. P. Dono- ‘van for secretaries. Mr. Fitzgerald, upon taking the chair, said: “After & quarter of a century of uninterrupted power, wielded with remorseless party ostra- cism, the republican party steps down and out, an example and a warning to us, their suc- cessors; and whether our lease of power shall continue longer than four years depends upon how well we have profited by the lessons of the past and how zealously and honestly we strive to ‘out the promises made the people in our state and national plat- forms. We must remember that we are only in the probationary period, Honor and patriot- ism alike demand that our pledges to the peo ple shall be kept and fait uly carried out. Already is the democratic administration, though only a few months in power, dem Strating its fitness to controf the destinies of the republic and its sense of honor in carrying ‘out its pre-election pledges to the people.” The Platform. Mr. Avery, from the committee on resolu- tions, presented the platform. This declares thit the demoorats of Massachusetts have full confidence in the President,in his wise cau- tlon, bis farseeing sagacity, his courage and firmness, his determination to administer the government in the interests ot the whole peo- ple, and_ his devotion to the fundamental prin- cipies of national democracy; that under his inistration every reform required to make government ‘pure and honest will be made; that sectional prejudice and Jealousy will disappear, and that the clvil ser- vice will be estab! ‘on a broad basis of jus- tice and equality, securing to the adminis tion official sympathy with its policy, not cre- ating an unofficial class, but giving every clic zen who iscapable and honest the right to bese- lected for public employment. The resolutions continue: “We thereiore pledge to Grover Cleve- land, President of the United States, our unfal- tering supp rt.” On state matters the platform. declures against a poll tax, the competition of convicts with the labor of honest people, in favor of the passage of laws requiring corpora- tions to make weekly payments to employes, and entitling a workman to recover damages from his employer for injuries received in the discharge of his duties, The platform also condemns the state law taking from the eltizens of Boston the regula- tion of the police force; favors a radical change in the state board of’health, the present con- duct of which is denounced; denounces repub- lican members of the legislature for their oppo- sition to labor measures, and demand the enactment of a national bankruptcy law. ‘The platiorm, after alluding in fitting terms to the death ot Gen. Grant, concludes by de- claring that veterans should have preference in the allotment of offices, ‘The resolutions were sdopted by a unanimous yote.

Annual Report of the Superintendent. HE CONDITION OF THE FORCE A¥D rvs woRK INCREASE OF DRUNKENNESS—HIGH LICENSE RECOMMENDED—THE “POOL SELLING” EVIL, aro. ‘Major Dye, chief of police, has submitted to the District Commissiovers his report bearing upon the condition of the police department of the District for the fiscal year ended June 30th, 1885. The report in showing the composition Of the force says that June 23, 1885, there were two hundred additional privates, including watchmen at the U.& Treasury, Bureau of En- graving and Printing, depots, markets, and other public places. There were forty appoint ments made on the regular force during the year to fill vacancies and to provide for the in crease of twenty-five allowed by Congress, mak- ing the total number on the force at the end of ‘the fiscal year 202, THE DEATH OF OFFICER FOWLER, Referring to the death of Officer Fowler, who ‘Was killed by John Langster, the majur says of Langster: “The fact that his punishment came swiftly after hiscrime has had a noticeable and beneficial effect upon the criminal classes, ‘as will be seen in one of the following tables by the decreased number of homicides since that ‘THE DISPOSITION OF THE FORCE at the end of the fiscal year just closed is shown, in tabular form, embraced in which, including five men at the White House,are mentioned twenty-one men permanently detailed irom the regular police stations and doing other work than timate duties. “Should not each branch of the District gov- ernment have a sufficient number of employes of it own pald out of its own appropriations ?” the report asks, “This d ent is credited with having two huni d thirty patrol men, whereas it has only two hundred and nine. The Police Court has two policemen as baliffs and an acting sergeant collecting fines; the health department has two, one inspector marine products and one assistant to the pound- master. At the workhouse are three guarding Prisoners; at the District building three as Watchmen, besides a clerk on oun rolls; at po- ioe headquarters four, two asslating thé pr erty clerk and night’and one clerk in charge of the defective offices. Besides this, for about three months in the year we have been supplying the license board with a clerk, and much time has been consumed by some of our officers In aiding in the collection of personal taxes. With such work as this and as small a force as we have, the work of this department necessarily suffers greatly in consequence of these illegitimate details.” NUMBER OF ARRESTS, ETC. Tables follow, showing the number of arrests in each precinct, a classification of prisoners, as to nativity, calling, sox, age, ete. The total arrests made were 23,225. A table shows complainants’ estimated value of money and property reported as stolen for the year, making @ total value of $48,816.24. Estimated value of money and property rocov- ered for the sane time, $12,235.58; and lost or mislaid, $7,396.12. One of ‘the first things that attracts attention in the tables is the very large increase of the number of arrests over the year before, in con- Sequence of the increased vigor in the enforce- ment of law generally, especially the dog law, and the arrest. of iclous characters. Between February 20 and March 6 the average ‘Bumber of arrests per offleer increased from “If we deduct twenty-one patrolmen on ial duty where arrests are not made we will ind. the actual number of arrests per officer to be 111 (Chicago, I believe, having the next highest number with 60).” ‘THE PATROL BOXES. The work done the past year througn these patrol boxes is given. This system has only been in operation in the 7th precinct since the Ast day of May, 1885, apd the major says: “I respectfully report that during this short time I have found it to be of | it service, both to the police department and residents of this precinct generally. ‘The preceding tables show that larcenies (grand and petit and from the person), house reaking and robbery reported durirg the past Year aggregate 1,316—the bona fide cases being only 1,079, .e., 41 more than the year before. The increase is due to the fact that the past year was inauguration year, with exceptional Spportunity for thieves to ply their calling, be- tween the 20th of Feb ‘and the 6th of Ma; last—especially as pickpockets. Itmay be add- ed that no house reported to the police during the year as vacant is known to this depart- ment as having been entered by burglars, In fact, none so reported during the past three years STOLEN PROPERTY. The amount of property reported stolen, etc., was $48,816.24, against $32,048.02 for the pre- ceding year. This increase occurred during the three weeks described above, Of that amount there was lost or mislaid $7,396.12, and $12,235.58 of the amount reported stolen, &¢., Was recovered. ‘The number of arrests for the above described offenses was 1,816—that is 122 per cent ofthe number of cases—a slight increase over the past year. The decrease in the amount recovered is partly accounted for by other necessary but unusual work imposed upon our Uttle force during the year—that is, taiting the projecting gus and waver pipes, &e- but particar water at particu- Early to tne fact thatabout onedourtt of the amount reported was lost when our little force was taking care of hundreds of thousands of strangers in the city.” .: as x THE CENSUS, ETC. ‘The census taken by the police in June last ts given as published in THe STAR at that time showing the total population of the District to be 203,459. During the last and preceding years the Police Court sent to jail in 1: ‘896 persons; 1884, 852 persons; 1885, 1,018 persons. Work- house, 1883, 1,255 persons; 1884, 1,790 per- sons; "1885, '2,311 persons,’ Reform’ school 1883, 55 persons; 1884, 92 persons; 1885, 66 persons, showing an increase of 665 in the last year over the year 1884. ‘The Criminal Court Sent to the penitentiary in 1883, 77 persons; 1884, 92 persons, and 185, 90 persons. INCREASE OF DRUNKENNESS. “The tables of offenses against the person show that intoxication, and such offenses as affrays, assaults, disorderly conduct, &c., as are mostly committed by persons when under the influ- ence of liquor, sre on the Increase: habitual drunkenness increasing trom 9 to 38; assaults upon officers have decreased from 69 to 43. While the number of places where liquor is sold lawfully und unlawfully increases arith- metically, the resulting disorder increases in metrical progression. ‘The existing laws re- ating tothe Wtquortrame are, very unsatistac- tory. Prohibition, were it desirable, is imprac- ticable here. Bata step in that direction may be made, and this is fur preferable to a step in the opposite direction, Each policeman on duty now has on an average fifteen or eighteen places where liquor is pid to look after with no satisfactory law to ald him.” HIGH LICENSES ADVOCATED. “The low groggeries, where,in consequence of which much disorder occurs, may be broken up by high license. The saloon which pays only $25 license 1s obliged, under the law, to dispose of several drinks and drunks at one sale, while the dealer who haga $100 license may sell only one drink. It must be understood that the ‘stovepipe’ sells at low places at the same price that @ small does at the retail Both sell “in such @ manner as to produce drunkenness and disorder; and there is no rea- son why they should not pay the same license, unless {t be desirable to make a distinction iu Sevor of places where caly boerlesuid.

IMPORSANT DECISION OF SECRETARY LAMAR UPON THEIR STATUS, Mr. Luther Harrison, who was, until recently, assistant commissioner of the general land office, and is now an attorney practicing before the department, jhas raised an important question as to the legal status of ex- government employes practicing as at- torneys before the department in an appeal to Secretary Lamar from a decision of the com- missioner of the land office, Mr. Sparks. It seems days 3 the chiefs of divisions in the land office that Mr. a was not permitted to as attorney in any case pending while he was in the employ of general land of- ficeand that in such cases he should be de- nied access to the ra and not advised of the action of the respecting them. Mr. ea | to the Secretary, on the groun that: ne jon co ghee dine cs preeroret cee § eld to apply ly to e prosecution claims for money; that {t has no application in the practice before the general land office, ex- cept in cases involving the payment of money, and that in any case the law bas no appiica- tion whatever, Secretary Lamar, in his opinion, states that the question ted is, whether a who holds his appolntment as an officer,clerk or employe in the department may act as counsel, attorney or agent for ating any claim against the United States while he was such an officer, clerk or employe, oraid in such prosecu- Hon in any way until two years have expired since the dissolution of his official connection with that department. The statute reads as follows: “sitshall not be lawful for any person ap- Pointed after June ist, 1872, as an office clerk or employe in any of the departments to act as agent, counsel, attorney or agent for Prosecuting any claita aguinst the United states which was pending while he was such an officer,clerk or employe,nor in any manner, nor by any means to aid in the prosecution of any such claim within two years next after he shall have ceased to be such officer, clerk or em- oye.’ Pithe Secretary states that he does not concur in the conclusion that the statute has no refer- ence to contests to titles to land, put only to claims for money upon the United States, But on the contrary says that it refers to prosecutions of claims of every class pending while the clerks referred _ to were employed in the departments. The Sec- retary adds that the act is not penal in its na- ture, and affixes no stigma, but plainly implies that It is not suitable or scemly. “My opinion is," he continues, “the terms of the act em- brace all persons commissioned or appointed in the department since the first day of June, 1872, as officer, clerk or employe, and who have not been out of service for two years.” The purpose of the law is jnst as cable to oue who hus accepted a distinct: intment to anew and better position since the date fixed as to one newly Introduced to the service, sThey, clearly “apply to, one who, like Mr. Harrison, ‘accepted and held an office by appointment of the President when at the e specified by the statute he was employed in merely a clerical capacity.” District Goverument Affairs.
