THE NEW YORK TIMES, SUNDAY, AUGUST 4, 1901.. 8 A TENDERLOIN POLICE WILL NOT ARREST WOUEN The Plain Clothes Rebel Against Patrolman Glennon. They Say It Degrade Their Uanhood to Arrest the -Lottersra" Many; Transfer Likely. Beven of the. ten detectives at present stationed at the West Thirtieth Street Police Station hare made It known to Patrolman Edward Glennon -of that atatlon that they would henceforth refuse to arrest loitering women In the Tenderloin.

As result. It la aald that the number of women on tho atreeta In that part of the dtr la Increasing nightly Capt. Flood, who la In command at the West Thirtieth Street Station, la out of the city. Glennon. generally regarded aa being quite aa powerful In Tenderloin police affaire aa the of the precinct himself for Glennon la an latlmate friend and representative of Deputy Police Commissioner Devery In virtual control of Capt Flood's wen.

Trouble baa been brewing ever since the Captain left Glennon not long alnce gave ordera that the atreeta ahould be cleared. Thla appears to be a regularly recurring order at the Tenderloin station, for it la alleged lhat by this mesne the exchequer of Xlo trt Kelson, who balla out most of the women. Every time a woman Is arrested Marcus 8. Bennett who la a fixture In the station house, aeeka Nelson. Kelson appeara and eigne the $100 bond, and the woman pays hlin S3.

If ahe 1 nut at the police court next morning substitutes are alwaya In waiting, ao the bonds are never forfeited. It is not an unusual happening for thirty or forty women to be, brought Into the Tenderloin Station on ono night. On the following night, when the law is broken quite as much, not single loiterer will be arretted. 1 his system worked proa-tx-rousiv in tiiA uavs of Capt. Chuproan.

and John Hig-giii. Hlggtns and Farrell are the only men who will obey Glennon'a commands relative to the arrest of women. These two arrest three or four women every night The other detectives areao violently op-poned to the system, however, that they refuse to speak to Hlicgins on the street, ana Farrell. too. Is becoming extremely unpopular among them.

Seven of these men have asked to be transferred to other stations, where they can do "real police duty," or else to be relieved of the order to arrest the Tenderloin women. One of the men recently aald to Glennon: 1 will do anything in the world for you. but I can't stand for this woman graft I want to do my duty, but no man with anv manhood can arrest these women unrlrr the svstetn that now exists. I won't do It. and my wife tells me ahe won't letH we no it.

Rebellion of this kind means a transfer and an end to chances for promotion tinder the Inflexible laws of the ttollce. One of the men who rebelled left on Friday for a vsratton. Three more of them will leave the Tenderloin during ihe coming It is reported. The others are honing that something will happen In tbe Nine-. teenth Precinct that will give theta legltl-tnnte police duty.

Most of then men have been on the police force for much more than five years. They are different from the Tenderloin detectives who have ruled under Chapman, price, and Investigating Bulkley Killing.

MAMbAkrcs Not thb Propi. Rimidt. The Court of Ap Judge Landon dissenting, has dismissed an appeal from the judgment of the ppellate Division sustaining the action of the Special Term ot the Supreme Court In refusing a mandamus to Eugene Lentllhon to compel Controller CoU er to Issue a wairant under relator contract Vita the clt r. The Controller restated the claim on the i round that Mr. Lentllhon compelled his em; iloye to labor more than eight hours a ds and also that he had not paid his woricmen the prevailing rate of wages.

The I ist ground has been removed from the case by the decision In Rodgers vs. Colei 160, New York, where It waa held that the labor law, so far as It relates to the revelling rate ot wages, I unconstitutional. The Court says that it waa clearly witl in the discretion ot the Supreme, Court refuse ta writ of mandamus and remit ihe parties to a common law action in wh -h the question as to the constitutionality i the provision of the labor law prohlbltl ig more than eight hours work In a day nay be tried. Judge Landon, In hia Uisaen ting opinion, says that as there Is no dlsput aa to the facta, the question Is one of lav merely, and ought to bo passed upon. Co ltlnulng, he says: "Mandamus Is the app -opriate remedy of the individual against a ministerial officer who acts as agent ol the Government, which, by Its law, reuulr i-s him to perform the act which the law atid the obligations of the Government make the legal right of the Individual to havte performed In his favor.

It should be an Exceptional caae in which the individual rnkist be forced to sue the Btate or a municipality, or the officer of either, to secure this due, when the officer is told by the law to render it to him. It la not the policy bf the law thua to embarrass the eltfsen. I The discretion which re fuses; me writ lsi a judicial aiscreuon. ana there is no room for refusal where the right of the individual and the corresponding duty of the loft leer are dear. In the sound discretion! of the court, no doubt the writ may bp denied that la to aay, where the undisputed facta have such an aspect that the plaintiff's right Is not clear, or If legal, la noq equitable, or if summary, after long delay if the relator, may be un just to the present incumtenie oi tne office, or If the law has provided that an other! remedy sbiuld be pursued." e.e Orakd Larcxn W.

Justice Dowltng, for tbe rourt. says: The wrongful approprlatior and concealment of the property by the appellant, in the absence of its owners, a id without their consent, and the refusal of appellant to return It. except upon the payment by the prosecuting witnesses of i fictitious and fraudulent claim, constituted a felonious taking and appropriation, ai waa larceny, under the statute.
