force has been withdrawn.
We trust that you will again place in service one of the more useful adjuncts to a force that is very satisfactory in other respects - an experience with police in a number of cities justifying this opinion.
W. H. LOGUE, Jr., Special Representative."
Donation.
Upon the recommendation of Captain Thomas B. McGee, Eastern District, approved by the Marshal, it was ordered that Round Sergeant Edward J.

Complaint Against. Captain John J. Fullem.
A communication as follows was received from J. H. Morgan
Payne and Conway W, SamS:-
"February 3, 1903.
Hon. Thomas F. Farnan,
Marshal of Police, City. Dear Sir:-
Rule 28, Sec. 3, Page 43 of the Rules and Regulations for the Government of the Police Department says in part -
"Members of the force must at all times be civil .... when asked a question they shall not answer in a curt or careless manner, but with all possible attention and courtesy . ."
I beg to submit for your consideration the following facts-About 9.15 P. M., last Friday, the 30th. ultimo, Judge Conway W. Sams and myself purchased at the Box Office at Ger-mania Maennerchor Hall, two reserved seats for the Wrestling Match. They were marked "F.Right,", and were numbered. We were informed by the doorkeeper that we would find an usher up the right aisle. We went up this aisle, and could see no one that we could pick out as being in authority, but saw Capt. John J. Fullera standing at the head of the aisle. We approached him, and asked him if he could point out to us an usher. This question he has never answered, but instead of answering at all commenced in a loud and ugly manner to berate us for being in the aisle. Judge Sams attempted to explain, but Captain Fulleia did not seem able to listen, but called an officer who was further down the aisle and ordered him to get us out of there.
It is submitted to you that we felt we had a reasonable excuse for walking up this aisle, and claim further that it was not amiss in us in trying to ask Captain Fullem for the information we sought, viz., where we could find an usher?
We further subnit that Captain Fullemfs treatment was a flagrant violation of the rule above mentioned.
Respectfully yours,
J.H.MOEGAN PAYNE I approve this statement
CONWAY W. SAMS. ¦
In connection with the above a report, as follows, was re-
ceived from Captain John J. Fullem:-
