AX FOR MANY POLICEMEN.
Commissioner Marks Says There
Will Be Sweeping Changes.
According to Thomas R. Marks, police commissioner, there will be another sweeping change in the ranks of the department within the next few days. Of the seventy-five or more men who were examined three weeks ago, and whose commissions expired at that time, only a few showed the proper qualifications to be recommissioned, according to Mr. Marks. Men who cannot read or write have no place on the force, he said.
Many of the older men are not surprised by the announcement and some say they are getting ready to resign.
"I'm going to quit before they get me," one man said yesterday.
