The city has been canvassed several times for sanitary and other purposes during the year by the officers. They have attended all large gatherings of our people, and public parades of all kinds. The arrival of distinguished personages in our city has frequently called out the whole strength of the department. They must attend all fires, and they frequently extinguish fires without calling out the fire department. All obstructions in the highways or sidewalks are removed or reported. Lost children are found or taken in charge by the officers un- til returned to their parents. If accident happen or people are found in destitute circumstances, they are taken in charge, and relief or comfort provided for them at the hospital room at the station, or at their homes by the officers. In fact, everything like crime, destitution, accident, neglect, calamity or disease, must be taken cog- nisance of by the Police.


243


The number of buildings found opened and secured by the Police in 1868, was 132, and this year 116. The buildings thus carelessly left open to the mercy of dep- predators were nearly all stores or places of business where large amounts of portable property were at hand. The inexcusable carelessness of citizens has afforded to thieves and burglars the above opportunity for plunder. and under such circumstances it ought not to be a mat- ter of surprise that burglaries and larcenies should be committed, notwithstanding the utmost vigilance of the Police. However, we have been either exceedingly " lucky or vigilant" the past year, for there has been but a very small amount of property stolen.


The condition and discipline of the Police force was never better than it is at the present time ; its numerical strength is thirty men, organized as follows :


City Marshal and Chief of Police,


1


1st Assistant City Marshal, 2d .. 1


1


Captain of the Day Police,


1


6. Night Police, 1


24


Patrolmen,


1


Truant Officer detailed as such,


The Station House is open and officers are on duty at all times of day and night, for calls in every direction, and for the protection of the persons and property of all our citizens.


It is gratifying to observe that the moral effect, (with- out which very little can be done by any Police force ) the discipline and the efficiency of the department, has attained a very satisfactory result. The careful scrutiny to which applicants for appointment are subjected, has had the effect to secure, on the whole, a better or im- proved grade of men. And in this connection I would respectfully suggest that the city, as a corporation, ought


244


not to be inattentive to this matter, but ought to pay these men the full value of their services. It is difficult to see why an officer in this city should not receive the saine pay that officers receive in Boston, Charlestown, Cambridge, Springfield, Providence, New York, or other cities, for an equal amount of services, responsibilities, dangers and exposures.


It gives me pleasure to say that the men constituting the Police force of this city, under my command, are nearly all strong, healthy, honorable and intelligent men, who can always be found ready in times of emergency, and who believe the occupation of a Police officer to be an honorable and respectable one, and who endeavor at all times to make it so; and such men are entitled to the generous support and confidence of the appointing power and the public.


The present arrangement of the force for hours of duty, etc., is believed to be the best we can have, until we can have a branch station at the north end and one at or in the vicinity of the Junction, in the southern section of the city, with dormitories, and oblige the ofli- cers to sleep at the Station Houses, as they do in all large cities.


The area of the city is now so large, that the perform- ance of police duty in the outer districts is attended with considerable difficulty from one center Station House, and whatever success has attended the efforts of the Police in keeping down the turbulent element in those localities, has been very materially aided by the ready transportation furnished and paid for by the city.


One year ago it was thought just and equitable by the Chief Executive of the City and the Chief of Police, to make this change in furnishing teams for the depart- ment, and now no officer receives aid or fees from any


245


source whatever. The city pay all expenses and receive all earnings of the Police department.


TRUANT OFFICER.


The Truant Officer is detailed from the Police force, and his time is mainly occupied in looking after children, who, from their own inclination, or the indifference of parents, absent themselves from the public schools. He is supposed to know all the children of this class and the condition of their parents, etc. His knowledge of juve- nile offenders is of much value to the department.


During school vacations he reports back for duty in the Police Department and is paid by that department for his services. He reports having called on 2230 child- ren out of schools, and of this number 1260 have been taken to school by him. 29 of the above have been con- victed before the Municipal Court for habitual truancy and sentenced to the Truant School.


One of the gravest questions officers have to meet, is how to deal with children; by reference, it will be seen in this report, that by far too many of very tender age have been in the hands of the officers during the year, mostly for petit larceny and malicious mischief; and per- haps less than one half that were brought in by the offi- cers were entered on the arrest book, because they were too young to be placed among those who were deeper and more hardened in sin and crime. A large propor- tion of the offences against property, committed in this city, I am fully convinced are the doings of minors or mere children. The Courts seem powerless as well as the officers to deal with the question, for who would send a child of such tender years to a county jail, to mingle with those steeped and hardened in crime ? In many cases where small fines are imposed by the Courts in order to impress on the minds of parents and guardians more


30


245


forcibly their duty in taking care of their children, the unfeeling fathers and mothers and guardians prefer that their children should be committed to jail for thirty or forty days for non-payment of fines and costs, and con- sider that they have made a good investment.


I would recommend that the City Council look into this matter. and have the law so amended or modified in our particular case, that our Municipal Court can send children to our truant or farm school for other misde- meanors besides truancy.


In the evening and even quite late at night, girls from ten to sixteen years of age may be seen on our public streets, frequently behaving in a rude and disorderly manner, meeting and gadding with the unscrupulous and unprincipled of the opposite sex, who have no sense of honor themselves, and care less about the virtue or the honor of young girls; parents and guardians are in nearly all such cases to blame. They should not allow their children, under pretence of going to see their friends, to places of amusement, lectures, singing schools, concerts, or places of refreshment, to go unattended by some adult member of their families.


Large numbers of boys, also from six to sixteen years of age, can be found in the streets until a very late hour of the night, who seem to be their own masters, or to have been quite neglected or forgotten by their parents, and numbers of them hang around doorways, entrances to public halls, and a great many can be found at the theatre, particularly so, when there is some sensational or immoral drama being performed, and although many of these boys have scarcely clothing enough to shield them from the weather, they manage in some way to get money enough to spend at such places at night. It is an easy matter to see what acquaintances may be


247


formed, what vices may be learned, and what seeds of crime and infamy may be sown in such places.


I would recommend that when licenses are granted to theatrical or minstrel troupes to perform in this city, that they shall be emphatically ordered, and their licenses shall distinctly specify, that children under certain ages shall not attend without being accompanied or having the written consent of their parents or guardians, and the Police shall enforce the order.


The following changes have taken place in the force during the year 1869 :


Dismissed, Patrolman,


1


Resigned,


3


Appointed, 1


In closing my report, allow me to express my grateful thanks for the honor conferred by my appointment, and for the uniform kindness with which I have been sus- tained by the City Government.


I am under lasting obligations to the Chiefs of De- partments, to the Judge and Clerk of the Municipal Court ; and I bear willing testimony to the cheerful and ready cooperation of all connected with the Constabu- lary force of the city.


To the Assistant Marshals and Captains of Police, my thanks are especially due, for their willingness, both day and night, to perform every duty.


JAMES M. DRENNAN, City Marshal.


CITY ENGINEER.

REPORT


OF THE


City Engineer,


1869.


To the City Council :


GENTLEMEN :- The City Engineer submits the following Report for the year ending December 31, 1869, to wit :


MILL BROOK.


The portion of the walling from the Western Rail- road to Front street, contracted for in 1868 and not fin- ished in that year, has been completed this season.


Another section of the brook, from Front street to the turn in the brook north of Exchange street, was let on the second day of March, 1869, to E. B. Walker of North Oxford. Of this distance 1221 feet have been finished, leaving 400 feet to be completed early in the spring. Upon the part remaining unfinished, about one half of the excavation has already been done.


The distance constructed this year has been by an arched conduit, as was proposed in the last Annual Re- port of the Department.


This conduit is twenty feet wide at the springing line of the arch, the arch rising 6.3 feet above said line, the surface of the paving falling two feet below it, thus giv- ing a clear water way of 8.3 feet in the centre of the arch.


-


252


Its sectional area is 118 square feet. The inclination of the grade line is one foot fall in a distance of 1000 feet.


The entire structure has been built of quarried gran- ite laid in cement mortar. The work has been faithfully and thoroughly done throughout all portions of it. The foundations for about 300 feet of the distance between Front street and the old Boston & Worcester Railroad Bridge, was found to be of such a character as to ren- der piling necessary upon both sides of the canal. Above the Railroad bridge all of the foundation has been found to be very much superior to what was at first antici- pated, most of it being the very best gravel. No fur- ther piling will be necessary until the work reaches a point near the south side of Exchange street.


The Expenditures for the construction of this work during the year have been as follows, to wit :


Paid E. B. Walker, in full on contract of 1868,


$16,058.56


66 on contract of 1869, 65,641,74


Paid for moving buildings,


66 pumping,


turning water, 12,917.85


66 shoring up railroad bridges,


sundry bills,


damages, 6,430.00


Amount, $101,048,15


To complete the walling of Mill Brook, there remains to be constructed the section from the bend in its pres- ent channel near the Machine Shop of Lucius W. Pond, to its intersection with Union street below Court Mills. This distance, measured on a line which shall cross the estate of said Pond and enter Union street southerly of Central street, is 1,725 feet.


The grade of the present conduit in Blackstone street is such that, being carried northerly at the same rate of


253


inclination as that now laid, the paving of the new chan- nel will be laid eleven feet below the present surface of Union street, at a point where it intersects it.


The distance now to be built, including the unfinished portion under contract, is 2,125 feet.


That portion now to be contracted for is thought to be as favorable in facility of construction as any heretofore built, excepting the first section. From near Exchange street to Thomas street it is anticipated that the founda- tions will need to be piled, but above Thomas street, the foundation will be equal to any upon the line, judging by the materials presenting themselves in the surface of the street. .


As the foundations of the entire 2,125 feet now to be built can only be kept free from water for the purposes of construction by pumping, the last section may be put under contract and commenced before Mr. Walker has finished his work.


In order to give the contractors every needed facility in accomplishing the entire work this season, it will be necessary to pump water at two places at least, constantly, which will necessitate the doubling of the present pump- ing power in some form.


SEWERS.


The construction of sewers has been successfully con- tinued through the year.


A contract was made with Mr. Stephen H. Tarbell of Boston, in March last, for the building of the Laurel street sewer from Summer to Glen street, and of the Salisbury, Boynton and Pearl streets, each of which were ordered in 1868, and also for sewering nearly the entire Piedmont street district, upon all streets lying upon the easterly side of the Ravine, and the upper portion of Lincoln Brook district lying easterly of Seaver street,


31


254


and southerly of Highland street, and also westerly of the stream, such sewers as were required upon Main street, with those streets leading thereto.


Mr. Tarbell has finished the Laurel, Salisbury, Boyn- ton and Pearl street sewers.


In the Piedmont district about one third of the work has been accomplished. With a favorable season the balance may be readily finished the current year. The following table gives an abstract of the sewers laid dur- ing the year 1869, as follows, to wit:
