Temporary Successor to Byrnes as New York Police Chief
The police civil service board appointed a temporary successor to Byrnes as head of the New York Police Department. Commissioners denied retirement for Captain Joseph B. Baninge and ordered formal charges without disclosure of their nature. Inspector Peter Conlin, active since 1869 and championed by ex Mayor A Oakey Hall, rose from patrolman to roundsman sergeant and earned a gold shield as captain. he and Captain Alexander B Williams were named inspectors. Chief Byrnes’s retirement drew mixed reactions, with Dr. Harkhurst saying the result satisfies him though praising Byrnes as a person rather than as an official.
