BOARD DOESN’T KNOW But Police Commis sion Will Try to ' Find Out. MAY NOT ELECT CAPTAIN MONDAY Civil Service Mix-Up Is the Cause of the Uncertain Sit uation. KIDNAPER HOLDS POLICE FEAR LIFE OF YOUTH IS IN DANGER. Sleuths Think They Have Man Located in Brooklyn—They May Get Him. When the police commleelon meets Hr Crlrele »wt Wire. Monday night to elect a successor to former Police Captain Moon, there la a strong probability that a deadlock will result on the question of civil service and that no captain will be choeen. R la generally believed that the com mission will bo found equally divided on the question of whether the new captain shall be elected for life under service rules, lining up four and four. If a motion la put to elect a captain under civil service uid only four mem bers vote for It, civil service will be floored. And then If a motion is put to sleet under the 61d rules and only four vote for this motion, the same situa tion would result. There would be no flection. This would mean that the senior ser geant, who la Sergeant Frank Whitley, would serve aa captain until the com missioners could get together and agrde. The proposition seems to be one of the moat complex with which the com mission has had to deal In some time, If an election results, It la believed the new captain will be one of the present corps of sergeants. It Is the general Impression that the commleelon will not go outside of the department to And a captain. The commissioners de clare they have no Idea who will be elected, saying they don’t even know for whom they will vote. The four commissioners aald to favor a ctvll service election are Mayor Woodward.' Commissioners Oldknow, N’unnally nnd Venable. The four said New York.

The latter quartet holds that civil -ervlce ta not In effect tn the depart ment, that the action of the old com- mlaslon’tn adopting the new system at * hurriedly called meeting several months ago Is entirely void. The civil jner i service quartet, each of whom was a hart. member of the old commission, holds that the department is now legally op erating under civil service and that the new captain of police must be elected for life. , City Attorney Mayson some time ago submitted a ruling, which. In effect, declares there la no civil service In the department, and this opinion will play a part In the proceedings of Monday night. On request of one of the com missioners. the city attorney has fur nished him with a copy of the opinion. The city council. It will be remembered, censured the old board for Its action, and this resolution of censure will also probably be Introduced.

If either of the reports Is ac cepted, there will be marked changes In ths gas situation, as even the ma jority report of ths committee requires appointment of municipal Inspec- nf gas meters, and gives citizens the right to build a gas plant of their own at any time.

After the last national convention Mr. Croker declared that If he ever went to another Democratic national convention he wanted to be able to cast a vote for Bryan, and this time he will get the chance.” From Governor David B.
