Partridge in the Police Department, as He + Has Heard All Claims. ERHARDT FOR UNION LEAGUE. Leaders of Various Factions Have Explained the Good Points of All Those Who Want the Position as Head of Police. It fs considered quite probable that the appointment of a Commissioner of Po- lice will be announced to-day by Mayor low. Mayor Low was late tn reaching his office, and his Secretary, James B. Rey- nolds, would not discuss the it being understood that his candidacy and qualifications for the vacancy had been fully explained to the Mayor by the Citi- ens’ Union, In speaking of Mr. Reynold: candl- Gacy, former Chief of Police Devery is reported to have sald: “Jimmie’s all right and a good fellow; but, say, Bport, the mantle of Police Commissioner would fit him like a circus tent.” 80 far the name of Major John Me- Gaw Woodbury, Commissioner of Street Cleaning, ‘s the one most commonly mentioned. It ls sald there would be no doubt of Major Woodbury's appoint- ent tf Muyor Low could find an equally effictent Commissioner of Street Clean- ing. Influential members of the Unton League Club are urging the sppoint- ment of Col. Joel B. Erhardt, who, they argue, would create a new force. The name of Col. Erhardt is the only new one which has been added to the list of @ dozen candidates. Mayor Low has been in conference with the leaders of the various factions which elected him and with a number of men interested in civic affairs, and it was believed about the City Hall this morning that the appointment would be announced to-day. MANY TRAINS DELAYED. Storm Made Tracks om Erle and Other Roads Sle. ‘Trains on the main Une and branches of the Brie Railroad were dalayed this morning, and commuters were from one to two hours tate in reaching the city. ‘The through traine from the West, including the Chicago Limited, were three hours late. The delay was due to the heavy condition of the track, caused by the recent snowstorm, Traing on other roads running {nto Jersey City experienced similar delay. TEN YEARS FOR MURDERER.

Orr store will be open evenings until ten o'clock, from Monday, the 15th instant, untfl Tuesday, the 23d instant, and will be closed Wednesday evening—Ohristmas Evo. We are very sensitive to intelligent public opinion upon questions involved in the welfare of our employees, and especially so in respect of the subject of this statement. Our record will indicate a large measure of liberality in the treatment of employees. The decision to continue the custom of former years in keeping our store open for a few evenings prior‘to Christmas was made for several good reasons. _ We are in receipt of many telegrams and letters from a distance, expressing a desire to visit our store on certain evenings next week. ee Jee on Friday and tho severe storm of Saturday last week kopt thousands of Ohristmas buyers out 0! ew York. A vast number of people resident in Greater New York cannot command the time for visits to the great stores during ordinary business hours. . Our great preparations of holiday merchandise give to our stores an exceptional holiday interest, and thus much public pleasure is created quite outside of business, The foregoing considerations indicate that the question of a few open evenings at our store, in the holiday period, has serious relation to the Public, and there is a positive and well-founded demand that the Public shall be accommodated, Regarding our Employees: All Salespersons in our employ receive extra pay during the entire month of December. Last year we gave employees other than Salespersons for eight evenings’ service Sixteen Thousand Dollars of extra pay. This will necessarily be forfeited if the store is closed every evening. The total extra pay for December last year was over Twenty-seven Thousand Dollars. we expect it will be greater. ‘The compensation for additional service is ample and generous. Our managers without exception voluntaritly urge the open evenings. Expressions of opimion from the rank and file of our people upon the subject have not been solicited, but many voluntarily state their hope that the custom of past years will not be changed. Our deep regard for public opinion and desire for protection from misrepresentation inspire the above announcement. We've Made It Fasy for Santa Claus to Bring a Piano WP'VP just arranged a new policy for pre-holiday piano selling.
