"Have you .m ? l'i frese reading th?? teatimony

??tit and tin? Lesow C ?mmittee?" h?? was asked.
KO DOUBT IN HI! MINI?.
Th?? ?!? Ctor smiled just a little as he aald With
emphasis:
"There is not the slightest doubt about IL In
fact, I am free to ?ay that I knew aome time
ago that th. re ivas an understanding between
the committee and M . Byrnes. I am not pre
pared to .?ay that Mr. ?"?.?fr had any knowledge
of it. but the understanding Involved the manner
in which Mr. Byrne? was to be treated. Just
what tin? understanding was I decline to atate,
but I knew that Byrne? wai not to be badly
damaged. %*
"l llr<t mad?? i.p my mind that there*wss an
understanding ?hen I heard that Byrnes waa
suplying the ?mmlttee with information. I
.! vi know Just how l"tig ago this arrangement
was entered Into. My sentiments in regard to
Mr. Byrne? ar?' the ?arm? now aa they always
have been. This understanding between Byrnea
?.?! the committee did not affect my views or
the vl.'ws ..fthe ti:.Tiii..rs of the aodety with
which ? am Identified .'??ward th?? Superintendent
in the i'-ast. I haw been lighting Mr. Byrnes
"p??? years, and be hah b en fighting us, and I
am firmly of the conviction that if I .are for the
sal ty of our organization I ?-annot afford to be
c?me ??'!i<"l with th?? enemy In any way. shape
or manner, l look upon Superintendent Byrnea
aa a . natltu nt p;?rt of ? system that Is cor?
rupt, and for that reason ! do not believe it la
?arise to have any dealing? with him.
OVERTURES PROM ???? SITKKINTENDENT.
?'.Mr. ityrnes has made overture? to our so
cl? ty. looking to ?'? ?-op.rati'.i with us. In cor?
roborati.m ?,t this stati-ment I can refer to the
time tre wert having .?..? much trouble with the
Grand Jury, De Lanoey Nloofl said to me:
?Why don't you tak?? Superintendent Byrnes
Into your confidence? He will aid you in
I undlng the captain?.' T>> which I replied:
'No, no: be miglit assist me in pounding the
captains, but he Is in the same box with the
captain?, and it is ?>ur duty t?> pound him aa
u. ll as the captain?.'
"?>ur soci? tv started out with ? certain ob
.1? t in view, "id the only safe way to accom?
plish g "d in ii ? )in?? ???? laid out is to follow
tbe lin ? strait t Y.?u cannot afford to accept
favors from a man Who is working against you.
[f you mortgage your houae tbe mortgage must
be paid "ff. and If it isn't paid off it will be fore
cl< ?si d."
"What do fou think of the Superintendent's
teatimony t.. th?? effect that he has i?een sert
ouelj hampered by the Commlntoner? in the

"1 am only a ?.r little PreAytertan clergy?

what has takin me a year ?>t two yenn to do.
Superintendent Byrne?, .viih ample power at
ills command, woul I be able to d.? in a week if
he were so min led."
"What will be th?? outcome of the present sit?
uati. l'I?"
' I do not wish to prophesy ah..ut that." re?
pli.d the doctor, Jovially. "It is not safe to
prophesy, especially if th.? papers are going to
print it. But I expect t.? have something
pertinent to say in the ?ours?1 of ? few days."
l>.? y .u still adhere to your blea of a military
p .li.??? system.'"
"Tea, I still believe that such a system would
be best. But I have been misunderstood in
regard to the matter. I am in favor of a
police system "ti a military basis, but not
necessarily with a military bead."
"I>o y??u regard Sup.rint.ndent Byrnes aa
having been brought up in politics?"
"I cannot say that I so regard him," answered
I?:?. Parkhurst.
COLONEL iTROXO NLEXT.
Mayor-elect strong was seen by ? Tribune re
p rter st his lions.? |n West Fifty-seventh-st
real rday,
"Will Mr. Byrne? be Buperlctentleat of Police
under your ? .ministration?" h.? wa? asked.
"That Is naturally s delicate queetton at this
?tage of the pr.lings, and one which I could
hardly be ?\?.:??! t> answer," replied the
Mayor-elect, wh?? refused to talk any further on
the aubject.
PACKING IT? HIS PRIVATI PAPKRS.
Superintendent Byrnes went to Police Head?
quarter? at I o'clock yesterday morning, and
spent four hours there In packing up his pri
papers for reti: ?vai. ?? ? .is.? Mayor Strong
should send his reaignation t? the Board of
Police ?' m mis loners for acceptanoe. "For ac
ptance" la the phrase used by the Headquns??
tere people generali) t?. describe the s union
which would result, should the letter .jo for
d to the board t.? set on.
The collecting of his papers was ?lone by the
Superintendent and his privat?? secretar**. Ser
ir-? ini l'Y.iiik Mangili, in Mr. Byrnes'! private
ioni. The shutters ? ? t h ? r > m's windows were
? as is usual on Sun lii, when the Superin
ten lent is not there, and no one knew that he
had ?.? to Head itiarters until after he had
di part? .1.
ih Superintendent's reaignation waa the only
'opte of discussion around headquarters yeater
oii. Regret at his probable departure seemed,
liowev? ?. t" i>.? completely overshadowed in the
amazement a? t ? what would happen after rie
had g ??. and whi re s competent successor could
? ? itu!.
Inspect? r Conila is the next otti-.?r in rank to
the Superintendent, and would be first in the
race for Mr. Byrnes'? mantle. He enjoys the
distinction ol being toe only Inspector un
smlrebed by the teatimony given before the
Lexow Committee.
But while an excellent routine officer, he is not
r. dit. ?1 with any remarkable executive ability
, f th. rank and file Of the department. Inspector
McLaughlin, the present head of the detective
department, is considered a more brilliant officer,
but the eviti, n.e l.rought out by Mr. Goff will
tell against him should there be any contest for
the Superinten lency between Inspector Conila
and himself, inspectors Williams and McAvoy
ar.? both regarded as out <?f th?? race, the former
being condemned ?by hit record.
JUDOI i'??WING'S VIEWS
.iuilge Bufus B. Cowing was chatting with a
Mend at the Plasa Hotel yesterday, when a
Tribune reporter asked how New-York could
best make us?? of the knowledge gained by the
investigation of the LeSOW Committee.
"I believe the Police Department should be
reorganised from stem t?? stern." satd he. "I
think Superintendent Byrnea ia riaht on the
question of centralista?* the power in one head.
Politics should cut no figure whatsoever In
