At New York some Interesting figures were given out as to police revenue based on the Investigations of the Bennto committee. The city pnys for Its police t5. 139,147.01. This Is less thnn oiio-third of the money which passes into the department. Up to date every charge made by Dr. Tnrk hurst has been fully proven. Tlint tho de partment carries on a most stupendous sys tem of blackmail hns been fully shuwn. Tammany Is scared. It has declared lis in tention of cutting loose from the police, but It Is too late now and there Is little doubt but. that the channel which conveys the result of tho police blackmail or a large part of it Into the wigwam nud Its leaders will be fully ex prsei. But for the police revenue, there are In the neighborhood of 9,000 disorderly houses In the city. These have to pay nn average of 400 initiation fee, then an average of (7B a mouth for "protection." This means to tho police a revenue of H, 100,000. That's what the victims cnll "protection" and the police "perquisites." 1 he flgures are well sustain ed. Doren of witnesses have sworn to tho amount they have paid and inoro are ready to give their testimony. The next largest source of revenue is the saloon. There are 8,600 saloons here. They are nearly all Inw violators and all pay for protection. They pay nn average of iQ a week. Thnt means l,820,0OU In a year, to sny nothing of the "extras" which go to in dividual memliers of the force from the pa trolman up, Tho gambling houses are set down at 14n,000, merchants nnd peddlers nt 50,000 and then comes the new members of the police force. There are 200 of these appointed each year nnd the lowest figure for nn applicant in f 800. Borne pay as high as 1,5U0. but even at S00 It moans (60,000 to Tammany. Then the revenue of the police force Is roughly set down In this ways From the city, (5.1H9,147.fl4i disorderly houses, H. 120,. 000; saloons. 1.820,000: gambling houses, 1115,000; merchants and peddlers.tBO.OOO; new members of the force (10,000, grand total income, $111,954,147, 64. The police department must be a paylngln stitutlou. The tlgures given do not Include "promotion," which vary from 1500 for a roundsman to (1,000 for a captain. They do not include the "Chrietmns presents" which every blackmailed victim must pay a lump aside from his protection contract. Just bow much of this money goes to Tammany nnd Just bow much sticks to the lingers of the police ofllclnls Is yet to bo brought out. Mr. Guff, couucil to the com mittee, says he will show this in time. The people hoe he will. In the meuntlme Tam many is scored und Cruker bus gono to Kurojio. SMALLPOX ON 'CHANGE.
