To His Excellency Saiiuel W. McCaxl, Governor.
Your Excellenxy: — As Police Commissioner for the
city of Boston, I have the honor to present, in compliance
with the provisions of chapter 291 of the Acts of 1906, a
report of the work of the police department for the year
ended Nov. 30, 1917.
Offenxe-s acaixst the L.\ws.
Statistics concerning the offences against the laws, which
are given in full detail in mother part of this report, are
here summarized. The total number of arrests in 1917 was
108,556, as against 96,476 in 1916. The eight general divi-

rOLICE COMMISSIONER.
(Jan.
It will be observed that the increase in the number of
arrests is more than covered by the increase in miscellaneous
offences, almost all misdemeanors, especially drunkenness
and violations of the automobile laws. Unsettled conditions
due to the war, and especiallj' to the presence of an unusual
number of strangers, account largely for the growth of arrests
for drunkenness. This is shown in the increase in the per-
centage of nonresidents arrested for that offence from 44.56
in 1916 to 51.72 in 1917, much the largest percentage on
record.
A summary of fines and imprisonments is shown, as fol-

Nonresident Offexders.
The proportion of nonresident offenders among the persons
arrested for all causes has shown, on the whole, a steady
increase. When the first police commission was established
in 1S78 the percentage was 19.90; in 1917 it was 43.46.

PoucE Work on Jury Lists.
For the tenth year the police department, under the pro-
visions of chapter 348, -\cts of 1907, has assisted the election
commissioners in ascertaining the qualifications of persons
proposed for jury service. The police findings in these ten
years may be summarized as follows: —

Prosecutions uxdeb the Automobile Latts.
The use of motor vehicles in the streets continues to
occupy a large share of the attention of the public and of
the police. The prosecutions under the automobile law in
the police year ended X'ov. 30, 1917, involved 5,95S persons
and 6,240 separate charges. These do not include charges
against automobile drivers for violation of park rules or
charges against automobile drivers for violation of traffic
rules, unless such charges involved also violations of the*
automobile law.
The first record of an automobile prosecution by the
Boston police was made only sixteen years ago, when the
single offence of the year 1901 was the driving of a motor
car in a public park without a permit. In 1902 there were
3.3 prosecutions; in 1903, 67; in 1904, 179; in 1905, 102;
in 1906, .308; in 1907, 961; in 190S, l,S6o; in 1909, 2,196;
in 1910, 2,334; in 1911, 1,S99; in 1912, 2,.359; in 1913,
3,190; in 1914, 3,829; in 1915, 4,172; in 1916, 4,664; in
1917, 6,240.
Prosecutions resulted in the lower courts, as follows: —

The apparent increase in fatal accidents from 48 in 1916
to 71 in 1917 is to be accounted for largely by the fact that
accidents reported originally as resulting in injuries only
have been followed up more closely this year than ever
before, so that in ten or twelve of this year's cases death
was found to have ensued in from seven days to three
months after the accidents.
A study of the circumstances attending each of the 71
deaths of the year in which motor cars were involved shows
the following: —
Of the persons idlled 66 were in public places, 5 in motor
cars. Of the 71 deaths, 39 were caused by private passenger
cars, 11 by dealers' or other semipublic cars, and 21 by
trucks. The private cars were driven, 18 by their owners,
21 by persons other than owners, and 4 owners drove trucks.
One operator drove his truck so rapidly that it could not be
identified.
The ages of the persons killed were as follows, being in-
clusive in all cases : —
Three to ten years,
Eleven to sixteen j-ears.
Seventeen to twcntj--one years,
Tv.-enty-two to forty-nine years.
Fifty to fifty-nine years,

Thefts of Actomobiles.
In my annual report for 1916 I wrote as to this subject as
folIow3: —
The tlu-fts of automoSjflcs have not nearly reached in Boston the
numhcTS which other liri^e cities report, but the subject has become
a Serious one to owner?. The IVifton police department has been
making special ctTorts for a long time to remedy the situation, but
with the carelessness of some o»mers, the recklessness of thieve?,
many of whom are young, and the apparent leniency with which the
crime is regarded by the courts, it is eudcnt that there will be much
trouble in the future.
Ever>' statement in this paragraph has been verified by the
experience of 1917. The records of the two years in com-
parison are as follows: —

In addition to the foregoing, 9 automobiles reported stolen
in Boston previous to Nov. 30, 1916, were afterwards re-
covered.
Of the 195 persons arrested 22 were delivered to police of
outside cities and towns, leaving 17-3 to be disposed of in
Boston, 163 of which cases began in the lower courts and 10
in the Superior Court.
In *he lower courts 25 persons were discharged, including
1 for lack of prosecution, on payment of S50; 3 defaulted;
9 cases were pending November 30; and in 46 cases the
lower courts declined Jurisdiction and held the defendants
for the grand jury.
In the cases of conviction in the lower courts 30 were
placed on probation, 11 on file, and sentences were imposed
as follows : —
12 months in House of Correction and -S300 fine, .... 1

But the sentences of 1 person eight months in jail, 2

had imposed them.
Sentences imposed in the lower courts were accepted by

All other persons sentenced to imprisonment, except the 7

Thus the Superior Court was called upon to dispose of the
cases of 20 persons who were sentcncwl to imprisonment and
had appealed; of 46 persons held for the grand jury; and of
10 persons who had not been in the lower courts but had
been indicted, — a total of 76.

Omitting one fine of $100 and one of §50 which •were paid,
25 cases discharged in the lower courts and 2 in the Superior
Court, 2 cases in which no bill was found, 4 cases in which
the accused defaulted on their bail, 9 pending in the lower
courts and 26 in the Superior Court, — a total of 70, — the
remaining 103 cases as well as those of the 4 defaulters may
fairly be regarded as those of persons whose guilt was estab-
lished. Of these, the lower courts sentenced 4 to institutions
and 34 to prison for one hundred and sixty months, but by
suspension made inoperative the sentences of 1 to an institu-
tion and 6 to imprisonment for a total of twenty-five months.
Twenty persons sentenced in the lower courts, 2 to an in-
stitution and 18 to a total of ninety-eight months' imprison-
ment, appealed to the Superior Court, where the 2 institu-
tional cases and 12 prison cases were disposed of by proba-
tion or filing, 5 are pending and 1 received a sentence of
twelve months. Of the 56 cases which came directly before
the Superior Court without sentence by the lower courts, 4
were discharged, and the total punishment of all others was
represented by 5 sentences to the Reformatory and 4 prison sen-
tences of a total of fifty-one months, with 21 cases pending.
As a final summary, it may be said that of the 104 persons
charged with thefts of automobiles brought before all courts
in Boston within the year and not acquitted, 11 have served
or are serving House of Correction sentences amounting to
one hundred and one months, 7 have been sent to the Re-
formatory, and 3 to institutions.
Police Listing.
After an interval of one year the listing of male residents,
which had been restored by statute to- the assessors of the
city of Boston, was returned to the police department by act

16 rOLICE COMMISSIONER. [Jan.
of the I-cp.-Iaturc of 1917. The subject was explained fully
in my rt-port of 191G, but notwithstanding the reasons which
I then pjive for the continued relief of the police from a duty
whiili is performed by no other fjolice force, the action of
the Ixpislature to the contrary was substantially unanimous.
The compliment is appreciated by the Boston police, and
they have cheerfully resumed the work. The details for
1917 arc piven in the statistical part of this report.
New St.vtiox Hou.ses.
.\ftor n lapse of more than twenty years in building, the
city of IJoston began five years ago the work of providing
new station houses to replace some of those which had be-
come unfit and to accommodate parts of the city in which
there hnti been great growth in population. New houses in
.South Ik)t>ton, East Boston, Charlestown and Dorchester
have b*-en occupied, and the city authorities have taken
action towartls similar construction in the Court Square
dinsion. the West Roxbury division and Hyde Park. Much
more pro\T5ion is urgently needed in the older parts of the
city where police and prisoners are greatly overcrowded.
The following communication to the city council, under date
of March 5, 1917, fully e.vplains the situation: —
To thf Honorable the City Council.
Gr-NTi.EaiEN: — In compliance with your recjucst for information as
to the coixiition of station houses in the custcxly of the police dcpart-
rofat, I rv<pertfully present the following summarj' inrJ comment: —

ton; 7, IList Bw^on; 1.5, Chariest ov.'n; 10, Morton .Street, Dorchester.
From thirty to sbcty years old, but in a oonditioQ which may be
describe*! as fair to good: Di\T5ion 1, Hanover Strett: 3, Joy .Street;

inss already taken by the city: Division 2, Court .Srpiare; 17, West

W~ith rrferencc to the foregoing, spx?cbl reconmvto/lation is either
Ufinecr**arr or impracticable. Di\Tsions 4, 5, 9 and 10 remain for
crf?i.-i(l(T:itk>n.
191S.1 PUBLIC DOCOIENT — No. 49. 17
The house of Division 4, Lagrange Street, would count among the
old buildings in fair to good condition, except that it has reached the
limit of its capacity for accommodating policemen. More are needed
there, but there is no room to place another bed or even a closet.
In common with several other station houses in fair condition other-
wise, the cells are in the basement below the street level, near the
heating apparatus and with poor light and ventilation. Crowding of
policemen and prLsoners makes the defects especially objectionable.
Police Station 5, East Dedham Street, is HI arranged and over-
crowded in all respects. The combination patrol and ambulance is
kept by necessity in a leased garage at a considerable distance. Ade-
quate sleeping accommodations or even closets for the policemen
cannot be supplied, and there is no storage room. Conditions in the
cell room could not be worse. The nine cells are in the basement
below street level, with heating apparatus, and are poorly lighted and
ventilated. E^ch cell is 6 by 8 feet, and at times it is necessary to
place eL\ to eight fKjrsons in a single cell. It may be said in general
that cells in all the old buildings are dungeons in comparison with
those in the buildings lately erected, which are ample in number,
superior in construction, above ground in accordance with the present
law, and well lighted and ventilated.
At Station 9, Dudley Street, the police are well accommodated, but
the condition of the cell room is verj' bad. Ten cells are used for
men and two for women, poorly lighted and ventilated. At times
two and three men are confined in one cell. The cells for women are
in a separate room at the front of the basement. It is very damp
and poorly lighted and ventilated. The matron is obliged to occupy
this room with female prisoners.
At Station 10, Roxburj- Crossing, accommodations for the police
are good, but the cell room is in even worse condition than at Sta-
tion 9. There are nine cells for men, three for women, and on account
of insufficient room there are times when five men are locked in one
cell and from six to eight women in three cells. The women's cells
and the men's are in the same row of cells. The women are obliged
to pass in front of the men, and the matron to remain with the women,
subject to the noise and bad language of the male prisoners. All cells
are lighted artificially and are badlj' ventilated.
I believe that the new Station 2 now under consideration should be
constructed of such size, a matter of height only, that by changing the
division lines the lack of accommodation for police and prisoners in
Station 4 may be remedied. Later, when nccessarj-, similar relief may
be given in the same waj' to Stations 1 and 3.
I believe that the situation in Di\'ision 5 can be remedied only bj'
the erection of a new building which would cure the defects in that
particular di%i«ion; would permit of relief for Station 4 through
changes' in its southern boundary line; would pro\ide proper accom-
18 POLICE COMMLSSIOXER. [Jan.
modations for the female prkoners arrested in Di\isions 9 and 10;
and in the future would save general crowding in those two di\isions.
The present station house of Di\'ision 5 was built in lSo7, when the
South End was sparsely settled in comparison with its present crowded
condition.
A remedy for basement cells in Stations 4, 9, 10, 11, 12 and 13,
which would remain even after the erection of new buildings for Divi-
sions 2 and 5, could be found only in a general reconstruction, but
Stations 11, 12 and 13 are not crowded with prisoners, and the new
Station o would permit at lca.st of the removal of the women from
Di\Tsion3 9 and 10. Women arrested in Division 4 are sent at once
to the House of Detention in Sorr>erset Street.
I shall be glad to furnish any further information on this subject
which may be desired.

The war has placed a great additional burden upon the
police of Boston. To Xovember 30 they had performed
more than 20,000 tours of duty for exclusively war purposes
without taking into account the innumerable daily actixnties
created or increased by war conditions. Superior officers
were instructed that they were to respond immediately to
all calls for assistance from responsible sources, and to in-
quire afterwards as to the necessity for the particular sen*-
ice requested. They were instructed, also, that while they
were to help any and all officials in the performance of their
duty, the police were to take over the work of none. These
general rules have been constantly followed, and will con-
tinue to be observed. The department could not be per-
mitted to forget that its primary- duty was the protection
of the persons and property of the people of Boston by whom
it was established and paid, but that without too great a
sacrific-e of that duty it was to render all possible assistance
called for in the war conditions. The restriction as to re-
sponsibility was necessary because of the fact that neither
in the United States laws nor in the proclamation of the
President was any authority for the enforcement of Federal
war legislation vested in local police. It is to the credit of
1918.] PUBLIC DOCUMENT — No. 49. 19
the police that the great amount of war work undertaken ^
by them ^rithout legal authority, but at the request of |
officials and official bodies, was performed without a single i
complaint from a private citizen, and with official acknowl- i
edgments of promptness and efficiency. The Federal Depart- j
ments of War, Xa\'y, Treasury and Justice were assisted j
to the extent of thousands of tours of pohce duty as well j
as by constant co-operation in matters not requiring the j
speciiSc assignment of policemen; all calls from State, county • !
and city authorities were responded to; and close relations j
were maintained with the Massachusetts and Boston Com- |
mittees of Public Safety and other public or semipublic !
bodies engaged in war work.
The following extracts from the reports of the Harbor ;
Police give examples of the kind of voluntary' war work
which was done by the Boston police at the request of
Federal officials; and the variety and amount of work on
land were vastly greater: —
On Feb. 3, 1917, from 4.30 to 11.45 p.m., the steamer "Guardian,"
with a crew of the captain and five patrolmen, assisted the Depart-
ment of Justice by convej-ing a United States Deputy Marshal and
125 Boston pcJicemen from Constitution Wharf to the steamship
" Kropprinzesfin Cecilie" at East Boston, and conveyed 90 members
of the crew of said steamship to Long WTiarf on the return trip.
On April 6, 1917, at 3.30 a.m., the steamer "Guardian," with the
captain, the lieutenant and three jjatrolmen, assisted the Treasury
Department by conve}-ing 123 Federal officers from Long Wharf to
the steamships '• Wittckind," "Cmcinnati," "Amerika" and "Koln"
at East Boston, and on two return trips conveyed 273 members of the
crews of the foregoing steamships to Long 'WTiarf.
On Aprfl 9, 1917, at 12.15 p.m., the steamer " Guardian," with a
crew of the captain, sergeant and five patrolmen, and with a detail of
ten men from Division 1, went to Long AVTiarf and convej^ed the col-
lector of the port and ten c:istom guards to Chelsea to seize the
Austrian steamship "Emy" for the Treasury Department, and re-
turned with four members of the crew of the seized steamship to
Long ^"harf.
Without specific detailing of men the police made several
extensive investigations and reports at the request of these
bodies, covering the entire city and including subjects of
20 POLICE COMMISSION" EH. (Jan.
importance which only the police could handle. They were
the means, for example, of closing 141 urdicensed wireless
stations, as requested by the naval authorities. They- as-
sisted in the registration and draft not only by attendanc-e
at board meetings but by turning over to the proper au-
thorities 1,4-30 men who apparently had not registered, by
arresting or assisting in the arrest of 19-3 deserters or
stragglers, and by holding for safekeeping 275 men taken by
provost guards or other naval or military authorities. The
November proclamation of the President confers direct au-
thority and responsibility upon the police in connection with
the extended draft, and these duties as well as others will
continue to be performed by tnem in so far as their ability
and numbers will permit.

Bureau of Criminal Investigaiion.
The "identification room" now contains 52,621 photo-
graphs, 45,751 of which are photographs with Bertillon
measurements, a system used by the department for the past
eighteen years. In accordance with the Revised Laws, chap-
ter 225, sections IS and 21, we are allowed photographs with
Bertillon measurements taken of convicts in the State Prison
and reformatory, a number of which have already been added
to our Bertillon cabinets. This, together with the adoption
of the system by the department in 1898, is and will continue
to be of great assistance in the identification of criminals.
A large number of important identifications have thus been
made during the year for this and other police departments,
through which the sentences in many instances have been
materially increased. The records of 1,102 criminals have
been added to the records kept in this Bureau, which now
contains a total of 40,305. The number of cases reported at
this office which have been investigated during the year is
6,787. There are 30,298 cases reported on the assignment
books kept for this purpose, and reports made on these
cases are filed away for future reference. The system of in-
dexing adopted by this Bureau for the use of the department
now contains a list of records, histories, photographs, dates
of arrests, etc., of about 165,000 persons. There are also
" histories and press clippings, " now numbering 7,830 by this
Bureau, in envelope form for police reference.

The fingcr-print system of identification which was adopted
in June, 190G, has progressed in a satisfactory manner, and
with it the identification of criminals is facilitated. It has
become very useful in tracing criminals and furnishing cor-
roborating evidence in many instances.

Public Lodging Houses.
By chapter 242 of the Acts of 1904 it is pro^^ded that in
cities of over 50,000 inhabitants every building not licensed
as an inn, in which 10 or more persons are lodged for 25 cents
per day of twenty-four hours, or for any part thereof, shall
be deemed a public lodging house, and by chapter 129 of the
Acts of 19II this law is made to apply to all buildings in
such cities, notwithstanding that no price is charged for
lodging.
In the city of Boston the Police Commissioner is author-
ized to grant licenses to such lodging houses after the inspec-
tor of buildings has certified that the building is provided
with proper exits and appliances for alarming the inmates in
case of fire, and the board of health has certified that the
sanitary condition is satisfactory'.
For these licenses 12 applications were received during the
year; 11 of them were granted and 1 withdrawn.
