HUTCHISON TELLS HOW
HE DROVE VICE DENS
[Continued From First Page]
ing up was accomplished by returning
a list of suspected houses with the
names of the property owners to court.
The Chief of Police says Harris
burg's police department is almost up
to-date and that the reason it is not al
together so is because it lacks civil
service. He told the convention the
methods employed here in driving out
peddlers, fakirs, pickpockets, and so
on.
The chief of police said in full:
"I have been asked to prepare a
paper to bo read at this convention
and I was somewhat at a loss to find
a subject that has not been ventilated
and even in this paper I have to
touch on the social evil, but only to
give my experience and not to argue
on the question.
A Clean City
"The title of this paper is given
more for r. name than to claim that we
have an entirely clean city, as all of
us must agree that no matter how
hard we try we cannot make any
city in a true sense clean; but by law
and police regulations enforced we can
greatly Improve conditions, so that
the streets may be clean from what
might offend the orderly citizen and
stranger that might come to your
gates, and at the same time protect
the public from being imposed upon
by the many things that grow on our
busy thoroughfares If we are not con
stantly on guard. In these days which
take up so much of your time
handling traffic to keep our streets
from becoming congested we are liable
to lose sight of other evils.
Says Kliminatc Peddler
"The panhandler, or street beggar,
shoe string peddler, and above ali
the street fakir should be eliminated.
He is usually a brouen down "con"
man, short change artist, fair fol
lower and even a pickpocket. His
business is to beat the public in any
way he can. In Harrisburg we do not
allow this kind of work at all and we
are fast getting rid of our own home
street merchant and I believe that a
great good could be accon\plished and
the general public protected by the
co-operation of all the chiefs to elimi
nate the traveling fakir from the
streets of their cities.
"As it is now I have had men with
police records come to me asking
street privileges ana present letters
frcun other chiefs, showing they had
been allowed to work in the street
from town to town. This evil has
long existed and cannot be broken up
in a day, but why not make the start
in that direction and in a short time
you will have your business centers
clean and the unsuspecting public will
then deal only with your legitimate
business men, who pays your taxes
and is with you all the time.
How to Prevent Faking
"Some chiefs may say, how are you
going to prevent these fakirs from
coming to your town when the city
licenses them on the pavement for so
much per day, which goes into the
public treasury and that you dare not
refuse them when they offer to pay.
Let me say that if you take the trou
ble to hunt up the decisions on the
question you will find that the high
way belongs to the people and it is
not legal for any city or town to rent
space on the highway. The best
method Is the plan used by our city,
I believe, and that is for the chief
a,nd license clerk to work together,
and if a stranger applies for license

A Complete Showing of
Imported Hair Goods

Prices start at 81,75 for switches and go to the best at $75.00.

Sundries Department this week the demonstrator in charge will . lean

he must have the "O. K." from the
chief and if he is a street fakir he
does not get this "O. K." This will
make your business streets clean and
the public who want to be humbug
ged will have to go to the fair grounds
to «ret it.
The Pickpocket
"This is another element that we
should work together to eliminate
from our streets. In reading the "De
tective" I often see where pickpockets
of national reputation have been ar
rested and given hours to leave the
town. I want to say that when he is
arrested in Harrisburg we give him
ninety days in jail under the profes
sional thief act before he can leave
town and when he does leave he is
glad to stay away. We would a great
deal rather feed him for ninety days
to give him a lesson than to shake
hands with him and tell him to leave
the town, and believe me we have not
had to feed many lately, because you
soon get .a reputation among them
that they will be given no chance, and
it is better than a large corps of de
tectives to have your town get. a bad
name among thieves. We have had
several habeas corpus cases, but the
court allowed the sentence to stand
because we could snow records.
"We are a convention city and to
protect the public we must be severe
on the "dip" and this contributes
largely towards a clean city.
Cleaning I'D of the Red Lights
"As the storm against the social
evil swept through the country it burst
some of its fury on our city until pub
lic sentiment demanded action.
"We had a self-made red light dis
trict, which by its own sense segre
gated a district without police regu
lations; but nevertheless it was a seg
regated district. We knew where they
were and in consequence we could
keep them indoors and prevented them
from flaunting their business in the
i faces of the decent public and we had
I very little trouble with them. But
j they are gone. The whole district was
| put out of business in about a week's
i time. Arrests were made in a nuin
| ber of instances and the balance, with
! the owners of the property, were re
| turned to court without arrests and
they closed up at once. A great many
of them left town to go to continue
their business elsewhere and I judge
the question has been asked, 'What
right did I have to dump my dirt on
my .neighbor?' Those that did not leave
town went in to rooming houses;
some changed their names and moved
into respectable districts and had to
be moved again; some of them we find
in the street and arrest, and it is a
worse fight now to keep it from the
good people than it was before. It
is a large problem and I will not say
at this time which is the best method,
but will leave that to the good judg
ment of the chiefs who have had ex
periences both ways. I can say, how
ever, that we have closed out our -red
light district.
"I want to say for those of you who
have never visited Harrlsburg, the
Capital City of Pennsylvania, that it
is a beautiful little city of 75,000 peo
ple, situated on the banks of the Sus
quehanna river, with seventy miles of
paved streets, beautiful parks and
good clear filtered water. It is a rail
road center and for that reason we
capture quite a number of people
wanted by other departments. We
have a good, live police department,
not yet quite up-to-date because we
lack civil service, but we have an up
to-date identification bureau with Ber
tillon and finger-print systems, motor
cycles, autopatrol, dictagraph, game
well reporting system and red-light
signals and with the equipment at
hand we stand ready to render any as
sistance in our power to any other de
partment who may need us.
"I have been a member of this as
sociation for quite a number of years,
but this is the llrst time that I have
imposed upon your valuable time and
I thank you for your attention and
promise not to inflict you often."
