The request fairly took the breath S|away from Mr. Clark, although tt is denied at Mr, O'Keeffe's office that Mr. Clark telephoned to Palloe Headquar- ters to know whether the letter was a Joke. The peop'e about the departments say if Mr, O'Keeffe 1s joking he 1s practical | about {t, because his fetter brings to light the fact that for a long time nine policemen have been detailed to the Street-Cleaning Department. Their duties are merely to eee that house- holders do not put ashes and garbage in the @ame receptacles, and that bun- dles of paper are not left lying about. It has long been suspected thet these Httle duties lay well within the scope and ability of the regular policeman on their beats, ‘At any rate, eighteen street cleaners cost just ebout as much in wages as do series | ning policemen, which may or may not be @ coincidence. Mr, O'Keeffe and his secretary, Mr. Kirehner, refuse to discuss the matter, while Mr. Clark and his assistants look ‘puzgied and don't know whut to say. ——=>— HICCOUGHS KILLING MAN.
