HEW YORK POLICE
FORGE IS CORRUPT
Curran Investigation Discloses
i Frightful Condition Among
Gotham’s Bluo Coats.
New York, Jan. 21.--The dis
closures made by witnesses before
the Curran aldermanio committee
! under examination of Emory It.
jHuckner, the committee’s conn
!sel, have disclosed a frightful
!condition of graft in the city po
lice department. Many women,
owners of houses of ill fame, have
I testified that they paid from §150
to §500 a month for protection.
The investigation started soon
after the shooting of Gambler
Rosenthal, who had refused to
agree to a fake raid after he had
paid his money for protection,
and when the police insisted that
for Hu; sake of public opinion he
j had better consent to be raided
and start up in a different loca
tion, he replied that if he was
[molested he would reveal the con
nection between the police and
[the gamblers. For this he was
murdered when he stepped out of
one of the leading hoi els in the
heart of the city.
i Tht* relations between I lie po_
jlice and I lie underworld lias been
'laid bare and since (lie expose the
! police have made war on the wif
. nesses of tin* committee and in
■many instances they have been
forced 1.0 leave town. The records
'of the police department have
been denied to the aldermanic in
jvestipalors except, upon an order
from the court, and then if has
i been found that many important
documents have been stolen.
It has been conclusively shown
that the police and tin* numerous
imiups of robbers who worked the
/town, have been working togeth
er, and that man' of the crooks
l of the town were in alliance with
the uniformed force.

the Pujo committee and testified
that the present concentration of
wealth had “gone far enough.’’
He said that “conditions were not
entirely comfortable for the wet

ARE ADVISED TO
! "MUSH TO VALDEZ"
j Tin* marshal's office was in re.
I eeipt of a telegram from Mc
I (tarty tins morning stating ttiat
the “officials of the Bonanza mine
were advising the men they had
laid off to mush to Valdez, as
provisions were short and the
time trains would In* started was
indefinited."
This would indicate that there
is no immediate hope of the tram
being repaired and that in all
probability the concentrator
would shut down when the sup
ply of ore gave out. Evidently
there is not a six months’ sup
ply of provisions at Kennicolt, as
lias been stated.

To advertise. If business is quici
invigorate it by bringing your
wares before the buyer. No mer
chant ever succeeded by cutting
down his advertising just because
money tightened up a little. On
the other hand tne merchant who
gets the money is the one who
creates a demand for his wares
through the advertising columns
of the newspaper.
If you have something for sale
write up an advertisement telling
its merits. We will bring it be
fore the people and are confident
it will bring results. Try It.
