Sergeant Brady Gets Out Be- fore He Can Be Tried-—Batch of Roundsmen Appointed, anda Devery Man 'Skipped”’ There were all sorts of trouble Predicted at Police Headquarters to- day when the full import of Mayor Low's charges against several of the officials in the Department was un- derstood. The general impression was that the Mayor had grown tired of the dilatory methods of Commissioner Partridge and had resolved upon quick action + connection with the charges arising out of the riots at the funeral of Rabbi Joseph. In ordering the preparation and prefermént of these charges the Mayor, it js held, gave a direct snub to the Commissioner. Comminsioner at the City Hall, Mr. Partridge evidently felt hurt at the sitvation, for he only remained a few .minutes at Headquarters, after which he hurriedly left for the City Hall to see the Mayor. He evidently did not know that the Mayor was to leave for Gettysburg at 10 o'clock to-day, where he is to attend the dedication of the statue to Gen. Slocum. The Commis- sioner held a brief conference with Sec- retary Reynolds. ‘Not the slightest mention was made of resignation,” sald Mr. Reynolds later, “nor was the Commissioner angry over the Mayor's letter that he had instruct- ed the Corporation Counsel to prepare charges against Inspector Cross, Capt. y the result of the special com- report on the east side riot “What ‘was the purpose of his vis! was asked, “That I cannot reveal," sald the Sec- retary. jack to His Duties. The Commissioner returned to Polict Headquarters, where he resumed his duties. He said his visit to the Mayor's affice did not have any significance. “There has been a great deal made out of nothing.” he said. He will leave for Gettysburg to-night. The first development of a shake-up was a hurried dash made by Sergt Brady, one of the accused officials, for Police Headquarters, where he made ap- plication to be retired. He sald he had read of the Instructions of the Mayor to put him on trial, and as he had served thirty-one years he thought it best to retire before he could be tried and dls- missed. In that way he will save a pen- sion. Brady is a veteran and the law pro- vides that a veteran may retire on ap- plication unless charges are pending against him, Had to Let Brady Go. After a conference with the Corpora- tion Counsel Commissioner Partridge accepted the application of Brady and placed his name upon the retired list He will draw half-pay from the Pen- sion Fund and escape running tne gantlet of a trial for dereliction of duty at the funeral of Rabbi Joseph. Commissioner Partridge said: “There was no other alternative for me. 1 was forced to accept the sergeant’s resigna- tion, there being no charges filed as yet before me. My wishes. in the mat- ter do not count, as Serst, Brady has taken advantage of a téchnicality and rétired under fire.” 1a v —_.—_ PARTRIDGE BARS ———_— DEVERY’S OWN MAN. ) In promoting thirty patrolmen to the rank of roundsmen’ to-day Commissioner Partridge departed fiom his usual rule of following rigidly the Ist sent to him by the Clvil-Service Commission in but ‘one case. He deliberately skipped Patrolman Michael Dempsey, who was seventeentn on the list. “i Dempsey was regarded at Headquar- ters during Devery's time as the “right bower" of the Chief, and during the last days of Col. Murphy's regime was Fromoted to the rank of detective- sergeant. He was reduced to the ranks by Col. Partridge with the first batch of detective-sergeants, Asked why he had skipped Dempsey, Commissioner Partridge said; “I am not at all pleased with Patrol- man Dempsey's record. He was a roundsman once, but was reduced to tho rank: of patrolman when the law al- Jowed such reductions without a tlal, Three Arrests a Year, “He was made a detective-sergeant, which position he occupied for about a year and during that time he made a record which, to say the least, was not OL that time he that he was for Devery’s staf, and ILIEUT.

ANARCHISTS NAMED TO MEET ROOSEVELT? CHICAGO, Sept. 18—Eparaim Philip Rosenthal, Secretary of the Roosevelt Reception Committee, who has been spoken of as an “ideal Anarchist” and a “philosophic Anarchist," has resigned from the committee.

Fe heavy chains, was taken from Morris Canal, near Jersey City, to- day and removed to Spier’s Morgue. 3 The body had apparently been in the water only a few hours, and on the left side of the abdomen was a wound which, caused her death. 5 The police of Jersey City and Kearny Township are both making rigid investigation. EXPRESS DRIVER'S DISCOVERY. John F. Keller, driver for Brown's Express Company, in Newark, made. the gruesome discovery. He was driving from Newark to Jersey City along Communipaw ave nue. When half way between Hackensack and Passaic River bridges he noticed what appeared to be a head bobbing about on the surface of the Morris Canal. ‘ He left his wagon and waded into the canal and found the body. It was naked and lying face downward, Long blond hair hung about the shoulders. The face was pretty. 4 BODY WEIGHTED DOWN. As Keller attempted to drag the body toward him he discovered it was weighted down. A strap was tied about the waist and at its end was @ twenty-pound carriage weight.
