POLICEMEN ASK COURT
TO HAVE JOBS BACK
First Convicted, Then Exonerated,
Now Want Reinstatement.
A conflict of authority betwoen Direc
tor of Public Safety George D. Porter
and the Police Board of Inquiry on ono
side and the Civil Service Commission
ers was olred in court today before
Judges Sulzberger, H.inutt and Dough
erty In mandamus suits brought hv itmrii
Gallagher and Thomas T. Jones for their
reinstatement as policemen.
Gallagher and Jones were found eullty
of intoxication and dereliction of duty
by the Police Board at their first trial
and ordered dismissed. At a subsequent
trial before the same board tbej were
exonerated and their jelnstatement was
recommended. In spite of Director Por
ter's acqulesence the Civil Service Com
missioners declined to reinstate the men
after going over the testimony of both
trials.
The court reserved deeldlon at the con
clusion of the argument today. Assistant
City Solicitor Gordon defended the action
of tho Civil Service Commissioners. In
tho inldst of his argument that tho recom

Director Porter are but advlsoiy, and
that the Commosloncrti ure not required
to follow them. Judge Sulzberger inter
rupted with the remaik.
"Thin policemen accused of derelictions

platform. Suffragists failed to persuade
Republicans nnd Democrnts to aupport
equal franchise In the party platforms.
This Is also the first time that any
