Set to Work Silently, Swiftly and Methodically in Solving Mysteries. Silently, methodically and swiftly Scotland Yard sets to work when one of those crimes occur which now and t _ again startle London, says the Philadelphia North American. There is no actual "murder commission," as there is in other countries, but every person whose advice is likely to be of assistance is quickly concentrated on the scene. The first on the spot , is the divisional detective inspector and his staff; then Mr. Basil Thompson, the assistant commissioner, and Superintendent John McCarthy, working chief of the criminal investigation department, will probably motor in haste to the scene of the crime, says Mr. George Dilnot, an English authority. "Not a thing is moved until a mlpute inspection has been made* plans drawn, photographs taken, notes made and finger prints sought for. It may be necessary to get certain points settled by^ experts?by the home office analyst, by the pathologist, by a gunsmith, an expert in handwriting, or anyone of a dozen others. The very best of professional assistance is always sought." . While the experts are busy the police "are making a kind of gigantic snowball inquiry, working backward from the persons immediately available. * * * I have known a murder investigation held up a couple of hours while search was being made for some one to supply an address of some other person who might know something:." If the description of the suspected murderer is available it is telegraphed all over the country; the great railway terminals are watched, and outgoing ships are kept under surveillance. "No effort is spared to get on the track of the murderer while the scent is still warm. Scores of men work on different aspects of the case. The finger-print department may be trying to identify a thumb print from among their records; in another part of the building the photographers have made a lantern slide of certain charred pi eras of paper and are throwing a magnificent reproduction on a screec for closer scrutiny; a score of men are seeking for a cabman who might have driven the murderer away ' It is no use finding the culprit, however, unless evidence also is discovered. I* is no use to catch a murderer if you cannot produce proof against him, and when the C. I. D. have completed their investigations they say, in elfect: "A murder has been committed; we have caught the person we believe responsible; this 1 is the evidence. It does not matter to us what happens now, the jury is responsible." "It was in a street thronged with people passing homeward from the > city. A single detective waited on each pavement. Presently one of them lifted liis hat and the other . crossed over. They fell into step each side of a very ordinary young ( man. 'Your name is so-and-so,' said one. 'We are police officers, and we should like an explanation of one or two things. %It may be necessary to Hotain vmi ' A rah stoDDed. the three got into it, and as it drove away there were not two people among the thousand in the street who knew that anything out of the ordinary had happened." His Register. s "Well, landlord, how's business . nowadays?" 1 "Oh, pretty good, pretty good. Had a whole pastel of people register yes. te'day. They were five gentlemen, . three ladies and four musicians."? Boston Transcript. Official and Superficial. In the absence of further reliable information, one must guard against forming definite opinion^. (Admiral Dewey in discussing the North sea battle.) I didn't need the lesson of the North sea fight to teach me what our navy needs. (Theodore Roosevelt.) Showing the difference between a mora admiral and a csnnpr-admlral New York World Democrat.
