POLICE PENSION (Continued from First rag.) t . -.-I . , . . used to pay the pensions and with the present men 0:1 the pension roll that sum Is quite, used up. Now It la pro posed to ask the legislature to In crease the limit to $100,000 so ns In turn to Increase the Interest account available for pensions. The chief stated last night that ha did not think there was any Intention of Increasing the amount each man was to contrih titn but to continue the present ratfl and turn It Into a larger fund Instead of turning It back Into the county treasury. There seems to be an apprehension on the pnrt of members of the de partment that the change will mean a larger contribution on their part and any such change would be met with sturdy opposition. The matter has been gone over and If the new Idea should Include such n. scheme there Is likely to be quite a light against It. l!ul as the chief understands the Idea there Is to be no Increase except In the possible limit of the fund and that Is not likely o meet with opposition. The Increase In the fund, it Is ru nioeed, Is sought foe the purpose of making the long expecied and oft eumoeed retirements. At presnt It seems there Is no money available for pensions If the retirements were mnde but with an Increased fund I he amount available for pensions would Increase nnd the retirements would become possible. The retirement of Captain Woodruff of Station 1 and Cnplnln Rrewer of Station 1 are said to be the two which are most likely, while that of Captain (i'Keefe Is considered proba ble If the commissioners see the way char to make It. At the meeting this afternoon there will also b taken up thevrepnrt of ttie committee on the police Mutual Aid ball. The committee that has been working to secure a hall has re ceived n'suvancc that the armory can be nsd on th night of January 21 nnd the meeting to-day will take up the matter of providing committees for the arranging of the details In the short time which remains, CUM 'K FX THIFVFS IIKI.li.

The pidltlclans are having a hard time finding fault with Covernor Hughes' approval of the new list of dtfloes 1 1 ansfeiTcd from the i-xcmpt to the competitive class by the state civil service com mlHioit. The whole nffalr Is a strik ing example of the governor's method of tre.-illng-imitters "on the merits In each case." First of all, h robs Jils u n olllca of patronage to the extent of live of fices hitherto exempt from competi tive examination. Right down through the state nnd county depart ments goes the knife, cnrviiig over three hundred mot r less choice bits of patronage from tho territory hith erto controlled hy the "organization." The outcome actually was so much less than they feared tlint their sigh of relief Is almost audible. As stated in a memorandum given out at the executive chamber, "only ten positions In the oltlces of the elected state of llecrs, apart from the otflca of tho governor, are affected. WOTHFU MllTIIO. .
