He told a large crowd, including many prominent and wealthy men, why he wants the State Logisiature to pass five bills giving the Police Commissioner real power over his men and why he selected Col. George ‘W. Goethals as the right man for the job. He also deciared that the passage of the bills was sought for the good of the Police Department of the city and to secure as Police Commissioner the man he belleves best fitted for the post. ‘ol. Goethals is due to arrive in New York to-day or to-morrow,” ‘e continued, “and no doubt he will speak for himself and reaffirm what he has statod in his letters of record to me—that upon the passage of these bills and his retirement by President Wilson upon tho completion of the construction of the Panama Canal he will come here as Pelive Commissioner,” APPLAUSE FOR ASSAULTS UPON THE “SYSTEM.” Applause greeted Mayor Mitchel’a words at various points during his address, notably when he assailed the system and ita evil effects, “I think that with these bills and Col. Goethals,” he said, “we can break the system and give to the people of New York protection againat crime, the control of vice and that we can purge the department of the suspicion and fact of graft. “When these bills are before the Legislature at the hearing Wednesday every interest that stood with, for and behind the System in the past will stand against these bills, Some good citizens, misled concerning our purposes, will be against them, But the majority of citizens will stand be- hind us.
