G FIRE ALARMS FIRES THIS YEAR. February and March of thie year, and June of this year, twenty-nine ES IN FORMER YEARS, 1 The proof established by The Evening World in its automobtle investl- gations that the police do not patrol the city properly during the hours from midnight to daylight is substantiated by Chiet Croker, of the Fire Depart ment, and the insurance Interests of the city. It was noted by The Evening stretches of miles in which no police! made upon the danger to property an In many sections of the city the World investigators that there were man could be found, and comment was d life by fire, which would-have oppor- tunities for terrible advancement before discovery, streets are entirely deserted after mid- night, and it was in these very sections that the police were hardest to find. VIEWS OF CHIEF CROKER, Speaking of the failure of the police to discover fires, a failure resulting entirely from improper patrolling of their beats, Chief Croker sald to-day: “Tam glad that The Evening World took up this matter and carried it out so thorcughly. I have repeated! polleemen upon the last tour do not in police circles, but I have figures y called attention to the fact that tha patrol. For this I have been criticised in my possession that show the truth of what The Evening World has shown. “L speak solely as the Chief of not from any personal standpoint. ‘the property of the citizens against operation of the police, As head of “that I have not been getting it, the Fire Department of the city, and T am charged with the protection of fire, and I should have the proper co- the Fire Departmnet I am free to say BLAMES THF BUSINESS MEN. “Much of the blanie attaches to the business men of the mercantile dis- trict for allowing the policemen to sleep upon their pzomises, For this seeming kindness they are fully as much to blame as any one else. There fs no need of a policeman begging off on account of the weather, as he has plenty of time to prepare himself to go out on post. There is no excuse for his dodging his duty, and these watchmen who curry favor with the man on beat by letting lim into the building for a snooze should be dis- charged by their employers, ‘The polleeman | from Great ‘FEW ALARMS BY POLICEMEN. ro gg 7d recently up a “Very seldom does a police officer turn in an alarm, of fire.

William B, Ogden, of No, 19 Liberty treet, has for many years been @ prom- nent factor in the local Insurance re- gion, His comment follows: “Every citizen who has his eyes open knows that It is harder to find a police- man upon his beat than locate a needle fn @ haystack. Where are they? I can Jocate A few, You cannot go through One Hundred and Twenty-fifth street Dut you find on all the corners of prom- dneat avenues one of more officers con- ‘versing or leaning up against the show ‘ ot store. “Indeed, they have not been so,” said the Fire Chief. Deen patrolled properly, In 1890 the records of the department show that out of 6,998 fires 1,203 of the alarms were sent in by policemen.
