Mc-Kim, their terms having expired. The term of office is three years and no salary is attached to it. At noon to-day the Mayor swore in William A De Long, who had just been appointed by Commissioner J.

He is a Yorker hy- hlrth and is espedially Ir nner rno Mmmiumnap known, the commissioner says, among bankers and in the rubber trade. At 11.30 oclock a. m.

"The first day of Mayor Strong' administration he was simply overwhelmed. observed a reporter, noticing that the Mayor had not been bothered with any office seekers since hia incumbency That's a change for the better, replies! His Honor quickly. He assented when a reporter suggested that the straightforwardness of his campaign and his method of making of appointments bad discouraged those who might otherwise have besieged him. Then there was jusoniewhal jwkward pauev which ended when the Mayor dismissed the newspaper men with the laughing remark: 1 am gentlemen, that I shall not be able to offer yon any afternoon tea BROOKLYN GARBAGE HIS FIRST THOUGHT.

I want to seo what Ive got, he said In explanation. This ia to be precisely like a military inspection, I want to see my men, want to see what they look like. That ia best accomplished by haring them turned out as a captain turns out his company. As to his immediate nadertakinga, Dr. Woodbury said: SI am going to take np tha.

Brooklyn matter of garbage removal first. That demands instant attention. Then I shall take up ths upper West Side matter, as I have had my attention particularly called to the condition of affairs there, the overnight leaving of ashes, for instance. But I must have more horses to do th work of my department. That is a subject deserving of practically first coasiderstfoa.

The Commanding Officers Seem to Like His Style Told Captain OReilly That He Had Heard Greet Deal AhOjit Him Has Not Any Changed in Contemplation nt The police inspectors, commanding officers and several acting captains, of this borough, had a chance this morning of forming the acquaintance of Major Frederick H. E. Ebstein, the Second Deputy Poiicp GommUsjoner under Colonel John N. Partridge.

The introduction took "place in the office of Chief Inspector P. H. McLaughlin, ill the Smith street headquarters shortly after 10 oclock. The new Deputy made a decidedly good impression on the men. When they left his presence and made their way out into the office of Clerk Thomas Carroll, they expressed the opinion that he waa all right.

Deputy Commissioner Ebsteiq is a maw in the neighborhood of 50 years. He ia short, with adark mustache and a military carriage. He served in the army for many years, and waa stationed on Governors Island as a lieutenant. There is no question whatever in the minds of those who are responsible bis having been placed at the head of the police force in this borough that he will materially aid Colonel Partridge in improving the efficiency of the force. As a matter' of fact, however, former Deputy Commissioner York had the department here In excellent shape.

The hew deputy was at the local bead-quarters yesterday -morning, but through some misuhderstanding he did not have chance to meet the- captains and others entrusted with the enforcement of the laws iu thia borough. That wa oue of the reasons why the meeting was arranged thia morning. The Deputy Com missioner at his office to-day shortly after The clerks and other attaches were also on hand early. -Mis Elattvor -Griffin, a -at 13001 grapher former Deputy York, was the first olio to teceive unwelcome Dews. Miss Griltin, who was taken from the Civil Service list, was under the as all other persons are ho have successfully passed a Civil Service examination, 'that she could not be removed except for cause.

She has been 'an extremely faithful servant, is a good stenographer and typewriter, and has had plenty of work to do since she waa installed In the place. Scarcely had she made her way to her desk iu one' corner of -the, room when the officer od guard at the door leading to the new Deputy Commissioner's effiee told her not to take off her coat Why. what, seems to be the matter? asked Miss Griffin. You'd better ask Frank, was the reply of the officer aa he turned away. Miss Griffin approached the clerk, nd he told her, tbatCommissioner Partridge had ordered her removal, and also that of the other stenographer and typewriter over in the Mulberry street headquarters.

On such short notice? she asked. That's the order that came over last night, replied the cierk. Miss Griffin then went and saw Deputy Commissioner Ebstein and had a talk with him. He said that he knew nothing at all about the matter. That was shout ail the encouragement she got.

The Deputy Commissioner shortly after this made hia way to the office of Chief Inspector McLaughlin and the inspectors and commanding officers were ushered into his presence. Clerk Carroll called the roil and all responded to their names except Inspector Donald Grant and Captain Brown. It was explained that the inspector waa confined to hia home, and that Brown, who is attached to the Canarsie was on hia way to Headquarters. The Deputy Commissioner took Inspector McLaughlin's place behind the roll-top desk. He carried in hia hand a sheet of pink paper which was his appointmeat as second Deputy Chief.

I had expected to meet you gentlemen yesterday, he said, "but waa unavoidably detained, and for that reason I asked to have you come together here this morning to form your acquaintance. You heard Commissioner Partridge's address yesterday. I would advise every commanding officer to read it. "Cut it out and keep it by your side. It applies to us all.

That is ail that I have to sny. I will take the first opportunity to call upon yon at your stations so that we eau become better acquainted. I hope that you will all work for the best interests of the people. "There is one thing that I would like to call your attention to and that is the communications. They must all pass through the regular channel.

Yrom the patrolman down to the commanding officers. In other words, they must all pass through this office.1 The officers then formed in line and were introduced turn to the new Commissioner hT Inspector McLaughlin. "He livea in your district, said the Inspector, when Captain Buchannan extended hia band. "You are one of the old timers. said, the Commissioner to Csp'nin John Mara, of the lower Fulton street nation.

This man has an accomplice, a woman of whom we lost trace on Tuesday of this week. She gives either the name of Boyd or Ward. She i a tall brunette of about 30 years of age, baa black eyee, rosy complexion and weighs about 160 ponnds. She claims to be a literary woman living in New York, to which city we have reason to believe she has fled.

The couple are experts in blackmailing and the man sold aome of hia stuff to a newspaper here nearly two years ago. In the event of jour being able to give ns any trace of this woman now or in the future, kindly telephone our office nt once. Within three or four days they landed the woman in the case, who ia npw involved liy name with Holp in the crimes for which be is now standing trial at Angola, Ind. Dr. Hiiiis further said: As t6 general subject, I must refer you to my own hook sa -t hose of Mr.

Beecher and Professor Swing. My sermons have been published in full for over sevenyears, and niy prayer meetjng addresses in part. I am not responsible for people's bad judgment in reading them, but seven years pf herfl work mean about three volumes of 460 pages each; and in seven years twenty-one volumes in all. The people here' know every word and line that Mr Beecher has ever uttered, and you mast judge, fur yourself- -3 have nothing to say. I confess, however, that I sometimes wondef why -the minister who leads a fairly decent life can be exploited by any crook or criminal that comes along.

Her three other children James, Mary and Margaret, aged 8. 4 and 2 years old respectively were in the seme room with their mother, but were not aware that she was dead. Tlte'police say Mrs.

Qallin'a death was due to alcoholism.

Her husband, James Gallia, is a bartender, bat has been withont employment in the past three weeks. A story had been circulated that Mrs. Gailin had died of starvation, but this was proved erroneous.
