The resignation of Third Deputy Police Commissioner Cowan is be- leved to presage the passing of the district leader as an executive factor in the Police Department. Second Deputy McAvoy will not remain in the! department long, in the judgment of men conversant with the condition | of affairs, and the fight that is on between Charies F. Murphy and Senator! McCarren will force Deputy Commissioner Haggerty out of Brooklyn head- quarters. Commissioner McAdoo {s not deeply enamored of his job, although he {s not making outright complaints, As a’ business man it is his desire to conduct the department on a business basis, but he has found, as every Commissioner of Police has found, that the question of politics intrudes continually. The humblest patrolman can some times exercise a tremen- fous “pull.” Deputy Commissioner McAvoy is a district leader and he has alert enemies in his district. It is not believed that he will be able to satisty the people who are looking to him for patronage and hold ‘his police de- partment place at the same time, especially as Commissioner McAdoo re- fuses to stand for certain phases of police government that have hitherto been considered legitimate. PROFESSIONAL POLITICIANS NOT WANTED. | Several men have be:n suggested as likely successors of Mr, Cowan, but it is probable that his place will be hard to fill. District leaders fight shy of it under prevailing circumstances, and {t is understood thut the Mayor does not, care to have professional politicians running things in Mulberry street. Mr, Cowan announced his intention of getting out of the Police De- partment a couple of weeks ago. At that time he complained to a prom- inent Tammany leader that he was a nonentity in Mulberry’ street. “T can't get a transfer for a patrolman,” he said. “There are 600 police- men in my inspection district, and I can't do as much for any one of then as I could do, perhaps, were I only a plain leader. I gave up a $10,000 law practice to take a $4,000 job in which the work ts largely clerical, and I am ick of it.” Mr, Cowan lays all the,trouble he has had about reports of open yico rival, Peréy Nagle. t “Nagle jnspired the stories about gambling-houses and pool-rooms {n my district,” he sald. “I admit that there was nand-book gambling in the district. It is in every district in town, and I doubt if it can be stopped, but I-deny the wideropen conditions Nagle alleges. “ist to show how ‘) felt about ’it I made a member of my club, the Mohawk, who was running @ gamé inthe saloon of Jack Nagle, Percy's brother, close it down as soon as I fourid out about it. Compiasioner McAdoo is reticent about pdssible retirements. When asked to-day if it had been intimated to him that Deputy Commissioner McAvoy would’ retire he replied: *T have nothing to say in answer to that question, I will-say that this} job doesn't help a man with the grip.” Mr. McAdoo bra been utider the weather for some time. He has had the grip and it has sffected his eyes. Commilssionership?’’ a reporter asked. ‘The Commissioner answered with this story: “Did you-ever hear about the! man who was run over by a Broadway car? He was dragged under the wheels for a block, and, when picked up, was questioned by an inspector of the company, The latter first asked the injured one for his name, address and age. ‘Then he queried, ‘Are you married?’ "Lord, no,’ replied the maimed one, ‘this. ie the worst isi that Phi i hechinna to me,'" ssesnesoness Ao002986 eserote BP-PDHTDOD stevoooene eee | romp. a $2-293302002 OSTRICH GPTURES THE CRESCENT CITY DERBY Was-Favorite in Betting at Odds of 6 to 5, and by Fuller's Good Handling Succeeded in Winning the Big Event at New Orleans. NEW ORLEANS, La., March 12—The seventh renewal of the Crescent City Derby. one of the annual fixtures of the winter meeting here, was tie feature event of the card at the Fair Grounds this afternoon. Six of the best three- year-olds on the ground sported silk and night speculation on the race was heavy, Ostrich was the favorite at odds ot 7 to 5, while Capt. 8. 8, Brown's colt Auditor, which had been specially -pre- pared for the race at Memphis, was second choice at 9 to5. Fuller has been secured to ride Ostrich. Long before the time set for the first race, thé grand-stand the overflow made themsely able on’the lawns and in the infleld. racing conditions could not hive been improved upon. ‘A delegation headed by ONarley Ell!- son arrived from Memphis this morning to witnesm the running of the Derby, Special trains from the | sqrroundiing, country within a radius of sixty tnlles brought f Derby crowds. In the ‘lobby of the St. Charles Hotel last night Bob Tucker, ‘Auditor's trainer, wagered Fred» Cook, er of the American Derby favorite English Lad, that Auditor would beat Ostrich in t day's race.

PETERSBURG, March 12.—There is great enthusiasm among thé people over the determined action of Admiral Makaroff, which distin- guished his assumption of the command of the naval forces at Port Arthur. ‘The continual position of defense and evasion which has marked the com- ~ duct of the war by the Russian army and navy ‘had given rise to alarm. ‘This feeling has been dissipated by the bold sally of Admiral Makaroff, ~ ‘An aggressive campaign is always popular and the indications of activity on the part of the forces at the front have caused rejoicing. fe Reports of the damage to the Japanese cruiser ‘Takassago are taken ‘we indicate that the fire from the Port Arthu: Turis i effective, “The arma- ment in modern and the naval authorita3e here say the statements that the Japanese sbips can Ile out of range. of the forts in the defenses and sheil the town are baseless. It is reported that the 2,600 Japanese who landed at Plaskin Bay, North- ern Corea, recently, intending to march to Maocurchan, have been cut off from the body which landed later at Port Lazareff to reinforce them. The Russians who cut them off occupy both roads by which a junction could have been effectdd.

CHEFOO, March 12.—The British collier Foxton Hall, which had been detaifed at Port Arthur since the first attack made by the Japanese, has just arrived here. She reports that the Japanese warships, coming from Tallenwan, made another attack on Port Arthur at midatant on the 9th instant, during a rainstorm. ‘Pho armored cruiser Novik steamed outside the harbor, firing at the enemy. The Novik finally retired. She was slightly damaged. The numerous shells which exploded in the harbor and town did no injury except to wreck a house and kill a few Chinese servants.
