SCHOEFFEL IN CHARGE. —————— Rules Are Modelled After Those of the New York Police Department, Provision Being Made for the Ex. aminction of Applicants. —_— Under the direction of Gen. George J. Aehoeftel, once head of a brigade in the Minnesota National Guard, the en- tlre police force, special officers and watchmen, numbering more than two hundred, are being reorganized over the twenty-five hundred miles of the Erle iailroad. ; According to the plans outlined by Gen. Schoeftel, and which were received from the printer to-day, the reorgantza- tion will be along the same lines as chose governing the police departments of the large municipalities of the United tutes. Most of the rules are taken from the Police Department of this city. Wihat are known as the watchmen are io be considered in the same class as patrolmen in this city. Then there are inspectors, captains and lieutenants, or vergeants The same kind of reports are to be m by every man a8 re- quired in every well-organized city po- lice force, and accurate blotters to be kept at each division or precinct. The Two Inspectors. ‘The two inspectors are Jeremiah O'ltrien, formerly chief of the Lehigh Valley Railroad Police Department, who tu to be stationed at Jersey City, and ‘Wililam Hillhouse, with headquarters at Meadville, Pa. Inspector O'Brien will have charge of wll the men west of Jersey City, and Iuepector Hillhouse will look after all these trom Meadville to the western terminal of the road, including not only the Erie. but those lines which it con- trols, AU of the men are to be uni- formed. ‘The captains, Ueutenants and inspectors are to nave blue uniforms, while he watchmen will wear sulta made of khaki, designed in regula- tlon army style. Wwo inspectors, there will be six captains, and the Heutenants will (umber twelve.

MEMBERSRETIREUNDER FIRE Many Have Left Because of Possible Charges and Few Have Joined, So Organization Supposed to Be Re- lated to “Graff” Will Soon Quit. —_—— Two years of real reform has proved too much for the Police Captains and the Police Sergeants’ Benevolent A: cations, and both are now on the! last legs, ready to give up. A strong effort will be made to hold them to- gether but the men most interested say they will have to go to the wall, Gom- missioner Greene {s blamed for it. It {s due to his retirement of so many Captains and Sergeants. ‘The two organizations have: existed for years. When a Captain was forced to leave the service, retired or was pounced or died, a thousand dollars was paid elther to the Captain or his ‘heirs. ‘The Sergeants’ Association paya @ miler mount ‘The two organizations have been pro- teotive in character for years. They have stood by thelr members and there always has been a suspicion that “graft” was one of the controlling tn- fluences and the bond of comradeship of the order. It ‘e a known fact that many of the worst “grarters” in the depart aent have been the strongest in the association. Are Retired Fast. For the last two years the captains, Inspectors and sergeants have been re- tired at a rate ruinous to the funds of the associations. About fifty captains and inspectors have travelled out of the department by the pension and other ce Commissioner Greene took after the other, for some , preferred half pay to running , and as they went out they wanted their money from the associa- tion. For awhfle it was all right. The new captains being made were expected to recruit the membership. A few came in and then accessions ceased. Some way or another the tip went around that the association was not a good thing with which to be identified and the new captains failed to joined. They Didn’t Pay. They paid nothing for thelr promo- tion, Their allegiance was not with the gang of the past, but with the new administration, The Captains Associa- tion dwindled for lack of recruits until the treasury\| was bankrupt and the| captains were called upon to pay es- eessments. to fatten the purwas of the retiring were unable to stand it, Being forced to live on palari felt it a hardship to dig. sessments of $0 and $100 to pay thou- sands to e batch of ritiring members of the order. and to-day ‘the zation ie albo true of lation. it, tt course, If) Tammany “showle 5 0) captalhs might listen to the the old gang and get in the assooia- tion, tut Ht appears to those who have are ‘familiar with the facta that it will not last he six weeks unil eiection.

Deputy Sherift Cook was on the road watching for a rig carrying the suspected nersons. | when Colgan, Hood and Bradley came jalong and the officer ordere# them to stop, Colgan's appearance was rather aristocratic and hls manner very suave. lide the diamind thieves told about in books, and the officer accordingly centred his attention upon him, Hood and Bradley assured the offloer that while Colgan wore diamonds, he had honestly earned them by keeping pilferers out of the State Treasury. After more than an hour's detention the party was allowed to proceed.
