sure to create a sensation.
All of the chargu made against the po-

judgment swift and sure in the form of
legislation is new to follow.
The committee has prepared bills to
remedy meet of the atrocious evils. and
they will be introduced immediately after
Not only are the conrmissioners of police
and all of their subordinates arraigned in
the strongest terms, but the policejustioea
are also accused, and suggestions are made
concerning them. The report says:
To run SENATE—in presenting this re-
port it is not the intention of your corn-
mitteo to submit a comprehensive analysis
of the work performed and the results at-
tained. but rathermaccentuate the salient
features of a record which. when closely
scrutinized. will disclose conditions in a
department of municipal government on ‘
dreqmed of at the time of the inception of
the inquiry and justly challenging the
most serious attention of the legislature.
Inasmuch as your committee owed its
various prominent and representative
commercial and municipal reform organi-
zations of the city of New York, wherein
sweeping and specific charges were made
against the police department of said city,
it was assumed that specific proof was at
hand and would be offered to sustain them.
A Mass of Documents.
We found, however. at the threshold of
our labors that the charges made were in’
tended to be general in their character. and
that there was not a sclntilla of positive
or affirmative evidence to substantiate
them. Thus it became the duty of your
eomrnitme for itself. through ch agen-
cies as were available, to profits its in-
qulry into the affairs of said department.
and thereby to itself substantiate by testi-
mony charges which it was assumed would
be supported by proof already collected.
The true volume of labor accomplished
cutout be measured by the testimony ad-
duced, and yet that which is presented
with this report will indicate the illegal-
lads and gravity of the undertaking. The
record shows a total of more poms of
proceedings.
This does not include a mass of docu-
mentary exhibits which were read and
considered in evidence for the purpose of
information. (if this testimony i.l)77

of the inquiry.
While during the first stages of the in-
veetlunflnn the difficulty lay mainly in in-
ability to prm-ure testimony. as the love»
tigation progressed, as public sentiment
became mum and more aroused. nud lilo
developments assumed from day in day a
more startling aspect. the number of wit
bosses and the variety of testimony offer
ed increasoil prodigiousiy. and the main
difficulty lay in sifting the good from the
mass and in rejecting that which was
purely cumulative.
Every (‘nucels‘able Election Fraud.
The results of the investigation may be
properly sunnuarizod in the general slow.
ment that it has been conclusively shown
that in a very large number of the clcction
distriefs of the city of New York almost
every touwlvable crime nwiliist the elect-
ive franchise was either committed or per.
milled by the police, invariably in the in»
terse!» of the dominant Democratic organ‘
ltation of the city of New York. «unmou-
ly called Tammany Hall. The crimes thua
asmmitfod or permitted by the police may
be classified as follows:
Arrest and brutal treatment of llepuh-
lican voters. watchers and workers; upon
violations of the election laws; mnvasaiug
for Tammany Hall conqudales: invasion
of election booths; forcing of ’i‘uunnany
Hall pastors upon Republican voters; goo.
eral intimidation of the voters by the po-
lice directly and by Tammany Hall nico-
tion district captains in tho prmeuce and
with the concurrence of all the police; do-
nial to Republican voters and ehwtion dis-
trict officer's of their legal rightsaud priv-
ileges; co olmrnlion with and ficilllll'bt‘ltlil).

for promotion was in Joining and eentrlbc

seeking through these channels the sure
road to promotion.
The conclusion seems irresistible that
under the circumstances such as now ex-
ist in the city of New York it hemmed the
paramount duty of the legislature to re-
move as for as practicable the possibility
of political influences securing a control-
ling power over the police force.

very important reason why the police have
been able to carry on and successfully
perpetrate their reprehensible practices is
that at least some of the police justices
have apparently worked in sympathy and
collusion with them.

has impressed itself upon yourcommittee,
hmvowr, is that the disorganiring ele-
ments at work in the police department
are such that operate from the higher ofll—
clals down rather than from the patroiv
men up.
It is gi-nomllycnnrodod that the munlc

property upon the highways of the city.

The Social Evil.
The report then takes up various illegal
practices which were protected by the pur
lice. and under the hood of “Disorderly
Houses" says:
As an evidenceuf timcxtraonilnary corn
ditioua to which this system had given
rise. it is proper to call your attention to
the 'fnct that in a number of cases
women who. as keepers of disorderly
houses. had paid thousands of dollars for
police pmux-tion, had become reduced to
the verge of starvation. while those who
had I'Xlll‘lell blackmail from them were
living in luxury. 'i‘heir booms had been
furnished out of the earnings of those
women. orthey were Wearing ornaments
of jewelry purchased by them. and even
the furniture of their houses had been
paid for by those whom they had protected
in the commisflon of crime.
The evidence ostnlilishes furthermore
that not only the proprietors of disorderly
houses pay for their illegal privileges. but
the outmsts of mmiety poy mtrolmen on
post for permission to solicit on the public

them. and often, as appears by proof. when
