The results of the civil service ex- | aminations of lieutenants of police for promotion to captaincies afforded a theme for considerable discussion among-the policemen yesterday. There is only one vacancy at present. It was caused by the death of Captain Bird- sall. Lieutenant Duke having obtain- ed the highest percentage, would in the natural order of things fill the vacancy. The charter, however, gives the Po-" lice Commissioners the power to se- lect any one of the three highest on the list certified to by the Civil Ser- vice Commissioners to fill a vacancy. Lieutenants Burnett and Gleeson fol- low Duke in the order named and the fortunate one can be selected from these three. The Police Commission- ers, for some reason, recently asked the opinion of City and County Attor- { ney Lane on this provision of the | charter and he toid them they had this power of selection.
