Unpreeedented activity in all the various branches of profes- sional crime—burglary, highway robbery, sneak thievery, picking pockets, &e,, & how. truthful our Mayor was when he said: “Devery has made the best Chief of Police New York ever had.” It is true beyond question that from the Tee Trust Mayor's point of view New York .— show VAN WYCK. has never had a Chief approaching Devery in efficiency. Ilis record is absolutely without a flaw. In all of Devery’s three years there has not been a single pro- fessional criminal disturbed unless he was either caught by accident on the spot or was run down by the newspapers. The overwhelming majority of crimes are committed by a dis- tinet elass—the eriminal class, Its members are all either personally known to the pelice or can he reached by them in a very few hours. ‘Those who know the in- side workings of police business know that only the crimes com- mitted by non-professionals are mysteries to the police. New York City has, and for years has had, the very ablest It knows its business—that is, it knows their “fences,” their police foree in the world. the criminal classes, their faces, their “pals,” haunts, their habits. Until Strong became Mayor, in 1895, the police had this rule for the professional criminal class: “You may live in New York and spend your money here, but you must not pull off any OF THE POLick jobs here.” Once in a while a professional criminal ike the rule and “pulled off a job” in the for- y indeed did he eseape. If he did escape, he} took good care to keep clear of New York, for he knew that within return the professional criminals who were “in” id see that the police got him.

The Strong administration sustained them and so in a measure restrained those who wave eager to release the criminal elass upon the community With the advent of Van Wy. k and “Burney” the entire machinery of the Police Department was turned to its part of the general business of taking that “terrible revenge” which Grady so trinmph- antly promised. And as the police foree hus heen | cht more and more into harmony with the Van Wyek ideal of public administra- tion, the York and Devery ta reer eenenene enone ees CHIMING riminal class has beeome more and more insolent, more and more active. How many murders, robberies, crimes of violence against life and property have been committed in the past three years in New York City! No one knows. kept the complete records. Devery' they can suppress from the public. How many professional criminals have been convieted during the pust few years? Few indeed. Yet New York has had the biggest colony of pro- fessional criminals in its his tory all that time. And they have been busy, not in the suburbs, not in the rural districts, not in Conneeti- ent and New Jersey, but here in New York——where they could im- mediately spend their stealings with their friends, the “protected” dive-keepers: where they could be sure of “protection ;” where their vietims would be thrown off the scent or zruffly ordered out of the station-house, Yes, Devery has made “the best Chief of Poliee New York has r had’—from the Van Wyek standpoint. Could there possibly he a more perfect realization of the ideal of an Tee Trust Van Wyek than this Chief under vhose auspices New York has become, to use the thieves’ slang, a “right town”—a town where the criminal class may work with little danger ¢ the whole trouble—is at Police Headquarters. If we had a Chief of Police that would fill Van Wyek with “Joathing and despise” all would change as by magic. Our splendid police machine would no longer be cither inert or active chiefly to aid the criminal class. Instead, it would make New York a town where the professional criminal would have to be desperate indeed risk of “pulling off a job.” No one ever will know.
