There Will Be Six. Bureaus in Manhattan—Force in Oth- ers to Be Strengthened, Police Commissioner Bingham, over New York,and that system that has fought him so tena- clously is in the main responsible for the conditions, has determined to doal & crushing blow to “the system’. when, on Sept. 1, the Detedtive Bureru at No. 300 Mulberry street will be torn asunder: and messed into six platoons, A similar shaking up of tho detective force in Brooklyn will take place and the men who heretofore have been re- Porting to the main office In State street will be apportioned to headquarters in various sections of the city, The Italian detective bureau under Lieut Petrosin{ will not be interfered with and will continue to have head- quarters in Elm street. There are now detective bureaus in the Bronx, Queens and Richmond. All of these will be strengthened, but will be under a chief, just as they are ct present. In_alicing the dotective forces into many parts Commissioner Bingham ex- pects to deal a death blow to the po- lce "system. Under present conditions hundred men report daily at No. hundred men report Gaily to No. 30 Mulberry street and there receive In- structions from Inspector McCafferty. This gathering together gives the men opportunity to exchange confidences. Four Bureaus In Manhattan. After Sept. 1 only fifty or sixty men wil! report at Mulberry street, and these men will be under direct orders from McCafferty. At No. SH Sixth ave- nue will be the Tenderloin bureau, where an equal number of men will report daily to a chief, who in turn phe crying of “hes —child Hay Os Wort, aaa present to King Edward with make hts wupplementary report—to.

Next to Mulberry street, the Tenderloin branch ia the most important. The man in charge of the Sixth avenue office will be next in rank to McCafferty. There will be four other detective bureaus in Manhattan alone. Commis- sioner Bingham argues that in the fu- ture when a man hau! been robbed or when crime has been committed which calls for detective work it will not be necessary for him to jouthey to Mul- berry street to make his report. He can go to the detective bureau in his neighborhood and toll his troubles, Not only will the detectives be able to act quicker, but the news of the crime will be communicated to other bureaus and they can act in harmony daily reports to McCafferty tn person and each chief willbe held reaponsible for the men under him. With the work divided in this way a closer watch can be had on the men, who wilt De-expect= ed to give accurate reports of their movements from the time they are in- structed by their chief in the morning or at night until they are relleved from duty.
