TRANSFER OF POLICEMAN AROUSES KEEN INTEREST Members of the police force are dis- playing a keen interest in the recent transfer of Policeman BEdward W. Gore from the first to the ninth pre- cinct. It is the bellef of his friends that his transfer was brought about because he held up the automobile of Mrs. Sullivan, wife of the superintend- ent of police, at the funeral of Com- missioner James F. Oyster, at Calvary Baptist Church. Inspector Charles A! Evans, acting superintendent of police, denies that such was the reason for the transfer, explaining that it was brought about the policeman on the traffic detail at the funeral streets with instructions to permiu only funeral vehicles to enter the for- mer street. He is said to have stop- ped the automobiles of Mrs. Sullivan and others, their occupants being members of the funeral party. The policeman’s refusal to permit them to enter that zone, it is stated, required a circuitous drive in order to reach the church SUNDAY EXCURSION NEW YORK - SUNDAY, JUNE 28 | Special Through Train B Direct to Penna.
