The findings of the District Commissioners in the case of Lieut.

Austin assumed command of the police depart- meat temporarily. Sergeant Brosnan succeeded Lieut. Kelly in command of the 6th preeinet temporarily and Sergeant Boyle took charge of Lieut. Arnold’s precinet.

Prior to Uiat decision there was xeneral indignation ex- pressed against the chief of police, apd mem- bers of Congress, thougn dectiniag t be qavted, threatened tual wniess the Cominissioners gave 4@ salisiaciory verdict a congressional investiga hon would’ iolipw. Now, the reurement of Major Waiker seenis to nave appexsed congress- jonal wrath, aud members ot the House, to si nowuing of the Senate, are apparentiy willing to Jet the iuatter drop.

PUBLIC OPINION. Pablic criticism dissects the finding of the Commissioners very elusely. In a group of per- sons in front of the District buildings to-day the police scandal was the subject ot controvers; ‘One yentlemun remarked that the Coumission: ers, in their verdict, condemn Lieut. Aruuid for speaking ofa public man or a member of Con- gress as a Visilor Lo a house of questionable r pute. “But,” remarked the speaker, “though it was shown iu the evidence that Licut.

Davis, speaking of the scandal to- day, said that pubile opinion wasso worked up- on the subject of the controversy that whether- the allegulions were true or laise Lie public would not have been satistied with anythin, else than thecourse taken by the Commissious ers, “It is quite evident that Major Walker did not the requisite aduniuistrative ability to govern sueh a police force.
