WALDO STARTS WAR ON POLICE GRATE Police Commissioner Waldo late this afternoon reduced Police Inspector Cornelius Hayes, of the Fourth Inspection District to the rank of cap- tain and ordered that he be placed on trial at once. Capt. John F. Dwyer of the West Sixty-cighth street station was assigned to succeed Hayes. The Commissioner also transferred to patrol duty twenty men who had been assigned by Hayes to special work in his own district. ‘WEATUPR—KFair BY —— P ONE VICE SYNDICATE DITION.

Smith, who with Samuel Marcus, counsel for the Society for the Sup- pression of Crime, raided eighteen of the resorts syndi- cate last night. According to evidence i nthe pos- session of Mr. Smith, these women managers were in the main paid no more than $12 a mouth for their miserable work. Polis Commissioner Waldo, It was Jearned to-day from reilable sources, firmly believes that his adminis tration of the Police Lepartment will eventually be vindicated of much that has been charged against it within the last four weeks by the facts gath- @red from the inquiry being pushed man, and the probe about to te etarted by the Aldermanic Com-| Balk at Magnate’s Demo- mittee.

The victory for the Cubs over the Giants tn the opening game had the effect of drawing out a still bigger crowd to the enclosure to-day. Stirring scenes re expected and extra police ed to handle the crowd, and it was expected that more than 30,000 would be on hand when the game started. Victory for Chicago yesterday down New York's lead in the race to cut five games, Only a few weeks ago the race was conceded to the Giants, but the Cuba came on with a rush, swept the teams in the East and returned witi fifteen victories out of elgnteen games, and pressing New York for the lead The Cubs do not indulge in morning Practice any; more, and most a paid visits to the Cub h during the morning.

Probe and Punishment of “Crime Syndicate” and Police Alliance of Higher Importance. Gov. Dix became an active factor in the investigation into th scandal uncovered by the murder of Herman Rosenthal to-day when, at the request of District-Attorney Whitman, he ordered a special term of the Supreme Court to convene Sept. 3, and designated Justice John W. Goff to preside. 44 The Governor did not stop at merely complying with the request of the District-Attorney. He issued a statement which has the effect of giving the local authorities the backing of the Chief Executive of the State. He says that he had decided upon an extraordinary term of the Supreme Court to look exclusively after the Rosenthal investigation as the most adequate force to serve the ends of justice, even befove the District-Attorney communicated with him. The Governor takes the stand that if there is any ground for the charges of police partnership with vice, the punishment of Individuals for murder is of less importance than baring to public view all the facts relating to that condition, To that end he orders an “exhaustive and relentless investigation” to be conducted by the Grand Jury and the Supreme Court. The extraordinary term of the Supreme Court was requested by Dix yester- day, urging the appointment of Justice Goff as presiding judge. Owing to the urgent tone of Mr. Whitman's message, Gov, Dix lost no time in carrying out his wishes, Only one indictment has been found thus far—that against Lieut, Becker. No other indictments can be found before next Tuesday unless the Grand Jury should be reassembled in a special session, Apparently District-Attorney Whitman has in mind the preparation of the first ot the cases he intends to try in two weeks, Tt is not even a certainty that indiet- ments will be retu next Tuesday. The Grand Jury yeater refused to return @ blanket indict or more suspects b carry out my convictions without risk of possible embarrassment te the offlce of the prosecuting attore ney.
