T is with feelings of pride, hard to explain, that the author presents this work to the people of Cleveland. And well might this be so. From the very outset, the utmost difficulty was experienced in obtaining data for the volume. Old police officers who have served on the force for more than three decades, the only persons directly connected with the workings of the Department to whom one would naturally look for information, maintain a reticence only natural to men whose simple modesty is one of their many qualifications as a good officer. Then, too, the older residents of the city, upon whom the writer was compelled to fall back, gave only dis connected stories in reference to the evolution of the Department from the old City Marshals to its present complete condition. Owing to these facts, it became necessary to take the records from the old city journals, a patience-trying, arduous task. This became accentuated when it was found that several of the old journals were missing. The writer has been able, however, to give a complete record of the department from its very infancy when Marshal Kirk, in addition to his duties as a police officer, served in the capacity of city tax collector, down to the present writing, when the force is second to none, and is looked upon with envy and respect by the other departments of the country. The transformation from a little village, six miles north of Newburgh Township, to a city of the first grade, and the ninth in size in the country, makes an interesting tale. In relating this I only tell the police end of it, but it will be noticed that the growth of the Police Department has been identical with that of the city and chronicles many of the important events which have been a part of the city's growth. In looking over the sixty-two years of police history, one finds that there have been three epochs in its growth. Its primary organization and ante-bellum Marshals, the Metropolitan Police, the Present System. Histories galore, painting in variegated colors the events of the last century in regard to Cleveland, have made their appearance from time to time. But this volume will have the distinction of being the first record of any kind relating to the history of the police of Cleveland. In consequence, the writer asserts with confidence that this work will be largely7 read, and, of a necessity, prove a valuable addition to the historical works of Cleveland. The proceeds of the book go to the Pension Fund of the Cleveland Police Department, and in presenting this historical souvenir, the author does so with the hope that its shortcomings, if it has any, may be buried in the glamor of its meritorious object. To those who have contributed towards the financial success of the book, the author and Police Pension Fund officers express their thanks. In chronicling the events set forth in the history, the writer surely has nothing for which to apologize, the following pages, showing for themselves in plain black and white just what kind of a department the Cleveland Police Department is.

By a devotion to duty, than which no officer on the force can show a better record, Gates forged his way from one promotion to another, until he attained the position which he now holds. His record, as shown in the police journal, is* as follows: Appointed Patrolman, November 13, 1871 ; Acting Sergeant, January 20, 1882 ; Sergeant, December 30, 1882 ; Superintendent's Clerk, February 18, 1884, to February 27, 1885 ; Lieutenant, December 4, 1885 ; Captain, February 19, 1889 ; Deputy Superintendent, September 20, 1896. During the time which he spent on the force, Gates was for several years detailed on market duty, alternating at the East and West side market houses. When the famous Maggie Thompson case came up, he was doing Captain's duty and personally had charge of the case and had ample chance to exhibit the qualities which had made him such a successful police officer. Genial John Vanek, Secretary of the Department, is one of the few city officials who utterly ignores politics. Year in and year out he continues to hold his position regardless ol the political color of the administration which may be in power, and in this connection it might A. S. GATES, Deputy Superintendent of Police. During the year 1849; when thousands of men were traveling West in search of gold, and on whose altar thousands more gave up their lives, A. S. Gates, the present Deputy Superintendent of Police, was born in a small farmhouse, in what is now known as Brooklyn village. As a farmer's boy, young Gates grew up on this farm, where, in after years he worked until long after he had ceased to be a farmer's boy and had reached man's estate. In 1871 the great Chicago fire occurred. Had it not been for this catastrophe, Gates, in all probability, would never have been a police man, much less Deputy Superintendent of police. Incident to this fire came the rumor that it was the work of firebugs, who had laid plans to lay every large city in the United States in ruins. People all over the county became alarmed and demanded that increased police protec r> tion be supplied. Mayor Pelton was Chief Executive of Cleveland at the time and appointed a number of additional patrolmen. Among these was Gates, then a stalwart young man. He did special duty for a month, and finding that he had a general aptitude for the work, ¥ made application for regular appointment. On November 13, of the same year, he was sworn in as a regular patrolman. JOHN VANEK, Secretary of the Department. IO CLEVELAND POLICE DEPARTMENT. Cbe Van Dorn Iron Slorks Company, Cleveland, Ohio.

John Vanek was born in Bohemia in the year 1846. He came to this country in 1867, locating at Port Jervis, N. Y. In the old country he had worked in an architect's office, but finding that he could not obtain employment at his trade, worked at sign painting. Vanek remained at Port Jervis for six years and in 1874 came to Cleveland. He worked at frescoing for a year and in the fall of 1875 was appointed Assistant City Clerk by Mayor Nathan Payne. Acquitting himself of his new duties with credit, Vanek was re tained in this position, year after year, until he finally resigned in 1887 to accept the position of Secretary of the Police Department which had been offered him by the Board of Police Commissioners. Vanek still retains this position and is considered so valuable an adjunct to the force that it is doubtful whether he will be removed from the office until he resigns of his own sweet will. During Secretary Vanek's term of office he has made a host of friends who at times have been in strumental in offering him more lucrative positions. He is contented, however, with his present post of duty and through his impartiality to the various members of the force, has gained the good wishes of every one connected with it. M. F. MADIGAN. Captain of Police Detective Lohrer was born in 1836 at Baden, on the boundary line of Switzerland. In 1854 ne packed up his earthly possessions and came to America. That Lohrer had an inborn detective ability was evidenced by the first detective work done by him. Immediately upon landing at New York, he started West. While traveling between Albany and Roches ter, N. Y., he lost his baggage. Upon reaching the latter place, young Lohrer started to trace his baggage. It was at this time that he showed his detective ability. After winding up his " case, " he continued his journey and finally landed in Cleveland. Employing his time at one occupation or another, Lohrer finally became a railroader and was following the road when the Civil War broke out. He at once enlisted, and on serving the time of his enlist ment, returned to his former occupation. In 1865 he was appointed to the police force, and when the force was reorganized in 1866, Lohrer became one of the Department of Police. His subsequent promotions follow : Acting Sergeant, April r6, 1872; Detective, April 12, 1876; Sergeant, January 13, 1897; Lieutenant, January 14, 1897, and Captain, January 15, 1897. Captain Lohrer has worked up more important cases than any other man in the Department. The case of Dr. Ulhrich, of Cov JACOB J. LOHRER. ington, Ky., obtained for him considerable distinction.

After he had received a common school education, he became apprenticed to a toolmaker and learned that trade. He enlisted as a private when war was declared, and after nearly five years' service, returned North as First Lieutenant. During the latter part of 1865 Lieutenant Madigan was appointed on the police force by Mayor Chapin, and when, on May 1, of the fol lowing year, the force was reorganized, Patrolman Madigan was incor porated into the new department. His record of promotion reads Appointed Patrolman, May 1, 1866; Fifth Sergeant, May 31, 1866 Fourth Sergeant, December 1, 1869; Lieutenant, April 12, 1876 Captain, November 5, 1885. For many years Madigan was detailed in the'old Fourth precinct, which station house stood for many years on the west end of the via duct. In the performance of^his duty in this section of the city Madi gan had no sinecure, which fact was recognized by the Board of Police, who voted Patrolman Madigan a vote of thanks for having participated in the capture of a gang of burglars who had long terrorized the resi dents of that section of the city. Patrolman Madigan had been watching the gang for some time, when one night he noticed five men coming towards him on Detroit street. He recognized them at once as being a part of the Connelly gang. Madigan was alone, but he ordered the men to hold up their E. K. HUTCHISON. was wanted for bigamy, but being beyond the Ohio line nothing could be done in the case until Captain Lohrer induced the physician to to accompany him to Cincinnati on the plea that he had a good case for Ulhrich. The latter fell into the trap, and was arrested and sent to the Penitentiary. The much-talked-of Blinky Morgan case was primarily worked up by Captain Lohrer, but by far the most important and interesting case was that of a paper mill foreman, who had been discharged, and in a spirit of revenge wrote threatening letters to his former employers, threatening to blow up the mills at Cuyahoga Falls. Before Captain Lohrer succeeded in running down his man, he found it necessary to eat, drink and sleep with him, finally worming himself into the fore man's confidence by declaring his intention of buying the Cuyahoga Falls' mills and installing the former in as manager. The foreman was tried, found guilty and sentenced to a long term of imprisonment in the Ohio Penitentiary. Police Captain M. F. Madigan is an old veteran in more senses than one. He is a veteran police officer and a veteran of the Civil War, and now, in his sixty-third year, he is considered one of the ablest offi cials on the police force. He was born in Ireland, and when five years old came to this MICHAEL ENGLISH. i6 CLEVELAND POLICE DEPARTMENT.

He was made Roundsman, August 7, 1873 ; Sergeant, April 12, 1876 ; Acting Lieutenant, April 6, 1877 ; Lieutenant, April 14, 1877. Lieutenant Schriber has served for about twelve years at the Third Precinct. He is the equal of any officer on the force from the stand point of bravery or efficiency. He received considerable praise from his superior officers from the manner in which he took care of the memorable Standard Oil Company strike of 1876. Lieutenant Dunn, on duty at the Fourth Precinct, was born in New York State in the year 1846. After receiving a common school education Young Dunn became a woolen spinner, working at Eastern mills; also at mills in Cleveland. He was appointed Patrolman December 30, 1870 ; Acting Sergeant, December 30, 1882 ; Sergeant, December 18, 1883 ; Lieutenant, May 4, 1886. While a Sergeant on dut}^ in the old Fourth Precinct, Dunn accomplished a feat which netted him no little attention and credit. For some time that portion of the city had been infested with burglars who purloined everything CONRAD KOCH. JOHN SCHRIBER. from a chicken coop and its contents to a large brick house. In the round of his duties Dunn had occasion to watch a house on Reservoir Conrad Koch is the oldest lieutenant in the Cleveland Police street and soon became convinced that it was the burglars' head- Department. He was born in Germany in the year 1835. He came to this country a dozen years later and after receiving a common school education engaged in various occupations until the civil war broke out. In 1862 he enlisted as a volunteer in the army and fought for the Union until the wrar was over. He was appointed Patrolman May 30, 1866 ; Roundsman, April 16, 1872 ; Acting Sergeant, January 25> 1875 ; Lieutenant, April 12, 1876. For about fifteen years Lieutenant Koch was one of the lieutenants in charge at the Central Police Station, keeping this post of honor longer than any other officer and for eight years, off and on, has been at the Eighth Precinct. He carries a scar on his right thumb which is a momento of an excit ing encounter which he had with a Walnut street man, who had terrified his family by declaring that he intended to set the house on fire. Koch, who was then a Patrolman, was detailed to investigate the case. He found the fellow guarding the house with a pitchfork. The man was finally placed under arrest but not until Koch had received an ugly wound in his hand in warding off a lunge which was meant for his body. This was twenty years ago, but Koch still carries a scar as a reminder of the perils of police work. Lieutenant Schriber is a product of Ohio. He was born at Pom- eroy, O., in the year 1841, and when about nine years old came to this county with his parents, who settled on a farm in Euclid township. STEPHEN KUSHMAN. THOMAS THOMPSON.

With several patrolmen he managed to corral the gang and afterwards personally dug up $2,000 worth of property which had been buried in the yard. Lieutenant Charles Tressel was born in Prussia in the year 1840. He came to Cleveland twelve years later, and while still a boy, became a cigar-maker. He afterwards learned the shoemaker trade, and worked at this until the time of his appointment to the force, Novem ber 28, 1869. He was made an Acting Sergeant, December 4, 1885 ; Sergeant, May, 4, 1886; Lieutenant, September 1, 1891, and is de tailed at the Sixth Precinct. Two bad scars on his head, the result of a fractured skull, are silent witnesses to this officer's bravery. He received them in the early seventies, while still doing duty as a patrolman. He, with another patrolman, was walking along Broad way one night, when a man stepped up to the officers and complained that he had just been held up by a crowd of men who had robbed him of his shoes. Tressel afterwards located one of the gang, and a fight followed, in which Tressel received a fractured skull. He succeeded, however, in wounding the fellow, who proved to be Jack Ellicott, a notorious crook. Tressel was laid up for some time, but finally had the satisfaction of seeing Ellicott brought to justice. P. A. SEARLES. GEORGE BROADWELL. Lieutenant John O'Loughlin, on duty at the Second Precint sta tion, was born in Ireland in 1841. Eight years later he came to this country with his parents. He attended school until fourteen years old, when he started to learn the trade of carriage blacksmithing. He re mained at this occupation for a number of years. After working at various trades he was finally appointed to the Police Department as Patrolman, February 12, 1873. Ten years later he was made an Act ing Sergeant; Sergeant, December 4, 1885, and Lieutenant, July 16, 1892. As one of the oldest Lieutenants on the force, Lieutenant O'Lough lin has proved an especially efficient officer. For the most part he has been stationed in the Second Precinct. For years this was considered one of the " toughest " sections of the city and O'Loughlin had his hands full. Night after night there were free-for-all fights in St. Clair street dance halls, and these, with labor troubles in that part of the city, gave him plenty of opportunity to distinguish himself. Lieutenant Fehlhaber was born in Germany, in the year 1849. Coming to America at the tender age of ten, he settled in Ottowa, Can. Immediately after the commencement of the Civil War he came to Cleveland and entered the employe of William Hart, a dealer in fur niture. The fall of 1875 saw tne disintegration of this firm and Young Fehlhaber was out of a job. On April 6, 1877, he was appointed Patrolman and has since been on the force.

CLEVELAND POLICE DEPARTMENT. 27 1892 ; Lieutenant, January 16, 1896 ; detailed as Detective, February 2, 1896; returned as Lieutenant, January 15, 1897. Since his appointment as Lieutenant, Fehlhaber has done duty with Lieutenant Schmunk at the Central Station. In the performance ^tiflttb of his duty, he spent most of his time as Patrolman in the first and third precincts, and it was in the latter precinct that he brought to earth the Crozier gang, as bad a lot of men as ever saw the inside of the Peni tentiary. Lieutenant Fehlhaber has faced death many times, but the occasion which will ever remain green in his memory was the time when a rolling mill man tried to shoot him. Fehlhaber, who was in the act of placing the man under arrest, saw the revolver in time and laid the fellow out with a well directed blow from his billy. Lieutenant " Johnny " Schmunk, as he is familiarly called by his friends, is considered one of the bravest men on the force. He was born in 1853 within the corporate limits of Cleveland. When old enough he attended historic Mayflower school, and when twelve years old started to work on a farm at Linndale. He remained here until seventeen years old, when he became a carpenter's apprentice, subse quently learning the trade. His twenty-second year found him a fore man at the Cleveland Rolling Mills. He was appointed to the force January 15, 1881 ; made an Acting SILAS PIERCE. HUGH MASTERSON. Sergeant, January 28, 1892 ; Sergeant, July 16, 1892 ; Lieutenant, April 1, 1894. For seven years prior to his appointment as Sergeant, Schmunk did duty in citizen's clothes, and naturally had many exci ting experiences. He believes, however, that his most perilous tussle was with a crazy man by the name of Weber. 1 he latter had ensconsed himself at the top of a three-story winding stair and defied arrest. He brandished an ugly looking knife at all who approached him. Schmunk adopted pacific tactics, and succeeded in placing Weber under arrest. The unfortunate fellow was afterward shot and killed in a fight out West. Lieutenant Shattuck, one of the officers in charge at the Second Precinct Station, is a product of Newburg township. He was born in the year 1857. After leaving high school in the year 1875 ne en~ gaged in the grocery business and afterwards became proprietor of a photograph gallery. He was appointed Patrolman, July 16, 1889; Sergeant, February 13, 1896; detailed to Secretary, September 21, 1896; Lieutenant, January 5, 1897. Lieutenant Shattuck is con sidered one of the brightest, most intelligent officers on the force, and he certainly obtained his stripes only after he had proved his efficiency in this direction. Lieutenant John Burns, of the Seventh Precinct, was born in Ireland in the year 1846. Coming to this country in 1863, Burns took CHARLES E. PARKER. JOHN SCHMUNK. to farming and afterwards became a hotel clerk, working at this occu- 28 CLEVELAND POLICE DEPARTMENT. 9®mt$&$&S&S*gS&S<&}S&$8<6,&(§'$@>$>@>$^@>S>@S8,3($, Compliments of Compliments of w w The Hickox Building, Cuyahoga Building, 185 Guclid Hvenue* Square and Superior* Compliments of Compliments of Western Reserve Bldg., Clarence Building, m CClater St* cor* Superior* Guclid Hvenue* 3®$&$&S@3@$>@,3>@'8t3>$S>@$S&S>@$@,$i@,S>@$@8i@3@,y* CLEVELAND POLICE DEPARTMENT. 29 pation until he was appointed to the force, May 8, 1869. He was made Acting Sergeant, October 26, 1883 ; Sergeant, December 4, 1885 ; Lieutenant, February 19, 1889. The most important case on which Burns worked was the Wheller murder. One morning early in 1887, Mrs. Wheller, who had been living with her husband on Eagle street, was found dead in her kitchen. It was evident that she had been murdered. Her husband was found in another room with his hands and feet tied. A man by the name of Graves was tried and acquitted in connection with the crime and Burns, who was then a Sergeant at the Central Station, caused the arrest of Wheller. The latter succeeded in escaping punishment, but it was on technical grounds, Burns having proved a conclusive case against the defendant. Lieutenant Johnson, on duty at the Eleventh Precinct, was born in Summit county, O., in the year 1846. He was raised on a farm and in 1864 enlisted in the army. Returning to Ohio in 1865, he became a member of the Merchant Police of this city and continued as such until July 19, 1871. He was made Roundsman, October 24, 1877; Sergeant, May 23, 1881 ; Lieutenant, May 4, 1886. While still a Sergeant, Johnson was one of the men who took part in the historical Cleveland Rolling Mill strike in 1885, an(* under Deputy Superin tendent McMahon led the charge against the strikers. In this, as well JOHN O'LOUGHLIN. JOSIAH JOHNSON. as in other labor troubles, Johnson acquitted himself with credit. Lieutenant George Kadel is detailed at the Tenth Precinct. He was born in Germany in the year 1843. Coming to this country in 1855 he completed his education. Working at the baker trade for some years he subsequently became a boilermaker. He continued to work at the latter trade until the date of his appointment to the force, April 29, 1870. He was reappointed Patrolman, May 21, 1873 ; Act ing Sergeant, December 30, 1882 ; Sergeant, December 4, 1885 ; Lieutenant, April 12, 1887. Perhaps the most important case on which Lieutenant Kadel worked was that of Patrolman Michael Kick who was murdered during the latter part of May, 1875. Patrolman Kick with another officer had been following a pair of crooks and had finally located them in a house on Franklin avenue near the old reservoir. The crooks turned on the officers and fired, Patrolman Kick receiving a wound which prostrated him. He died some days later. Kadel was one of the officers who worked on the case, subse quent to Patrolman Kick's injury. Lieutenant Broad well, on duty at the Twelfth Precinct, was born in Lorain county, O., in the year 1854. In 1872 he came to Cleve land and became a foreman in the Cleveland Saw Mill and Lumber Company, which position he held until he was appointed Patrolman, April 14, 1877. He was made an Acting Sergeant, May 16, 1882 ; Sergeant, December 30, 1882 ; Lieutenant, May 8, 1888. During the JOHN BURNS.

The entire family received penitentiary sentences. Lieutenant Kushman, on duty at the Third Precinct, was born in Medina county, O., in the year 1842. When still a young man he learned the blacksmith trade. He continued to work at this occupa tion until the time of his appointment as Patrolman, April 25, 1868. He was made a Roundsman on January 25, 1875 ; Acting Sergeant, April 22, 1875; Sergeant, April 12, 1876; Lieutenant, February 5, 1885. Lieutenant Kushman,as one of the oldest Lieutenants on the force, has had a great many exciting experiences at one time or another, and having been connected with the Third Precinct for a number of years has naturally seen not a few strikes in which he took an active part. Lieutenant Thompson, on duty at the Fourth Precinct, was born in England in the year 1848. Coming to this country four years later he was raised here in Cleveland. Prior to his appointment to the force, Thompson was a railroader and for a time was also a telegrapher. He was made a Patrolman, May 15, 1867; reappointed Patrolman, November 6, 1872 ; Acting Sergeant, May 23, 1881 ; Sergeant, WILLIAM JENKIN. H. T. FEHLHABER. January 20, 1882 ; Lieutenant, December 4, 1885. Early in the eighties, when Thompson was still on duty at the Central Station, he ing affrays and on one occasion received a broken knee-cap which threatened to cripple him for life. He was doing duty on Pearl street at the time, late in 1879, and had arrested a man on the charge of dis turbance. The latter's companions attacked the Patrolman and a rough-and-tumble fight ensued. Broad well finally landed his man but was laid up in bed for over a month. Lieutenant Fred Koehler, detailed at the Fifth Precinct, was born in Cleveland in the year 1864. On leaving the public schools he learned the trade of marble cutter, and while still a young man formed a partnership with his brother and started a marble and granite works on Woodland avenue. He continued in this business until July 16, 1889, when he was appointed Patrolman. He was detailed to the Secretary, June 9,1895 ; Sergeant, July 1, 1895 ; Lieutenant, Septem ber 20, 1896. Lieutenant Koehler is the youngest Lieutenant on the force, from a standpoint of years, and, not being thirty-five years old, it will be seen that he made strides in his calling which were unprece dented. Early in 1894 Koehler, with another Patrolman, made a capture which was considered out of the ordinary at the time. A family by the name of McElroy had long been suspected of being "crooked," the father having served one term in the penitentiary. Koehler shadowed the family until he finally caught the father and two sons "red-handed." At the same time he recovered about $1,000 FRED KOEHLER. JACOB W. VARNER. 34 CLEVELAND POLICE DEPARTMENT.

CLEVELAND POLICE DEPARTMENT. 35 had an experience with a burglar on Ontario street which nearly cost him his life. A large hardware store had been burglarized and it was in tracing the burglar that Thompson got into trouble. He and the burglar fought for over fifteen minutes before the officer finally managed to arrest his man, and during the fight received a wound which came very near to proving fatal, and as it was, it laid him up for about six weeks. . Lieutenant Pierce, on duty at the Twelfth Precinct, was born in Cleveland in the year 1858. While a young man, he became engaged in the grocery business and afterwards worked at the carpenter trade until he was appointed Patrolman, August 22, 1886. He was made a Sergeant, July 16, 1892 ; Lieutenant, July 1, 1895. Lieutenant Pierce obtained considerable praise for a job he did on the morning of July 1, 1889. On the preceding evening, two prisoners had escaped from the County Jail. They were known as Smith and Mansfield. They were aided by a confederate on the outside of the jail. Pierce was placed on the case and was walking along Gordon avenue with Deputy Sheriff Joe Goldsoll when they observed three men in a buggy. The trio immediately opened fire on the officers and Joe Goldsoll was wounded by receiving a bullet through his abdomen. A moment later, Pierce, who was then a Patrolman, shot and succeeded in killing one AUGUST BRANDT. FRED DOERING. of the men. His body was never fully identified although it remained at a morgue for days after the affair took place. Goldsoll ultimately recovered and Smith and Mansfield are still serving time. Lieutenant Masterson, on duty at the Tenth Precinct, was born in the year 1858 in Wisconsin. After leaving school he became a rail way employe and worked at this until he was appointed Patrolman, August 7, 1883. He was made Sergeant, February 12, 1891 ; Lieutenant, January 27, 1895. During his career as an officer, Mas terson had two murder cases on his hands. The first was that of Conrad Hahn, who murdered Charles Hoppe, a Columbus street saloonkeeper in the latter's place of business. The crime was per petrated in 1886 and was the result of bad feeling which had existed between the men. Hahn was sent to the penitentiary for nine years. The second case was that of a young man who had braved the dangers of the tenderloin. He was finally thrown from the window of Mike White's saloon on Michigan street and died from his injuries. Master- son was responsible for the arrest of two men, in this connection, who received penitentiary sentences. Lieutenant Varner, on duty at the Eighth Precinct, was born in Carroll county, O., in the year 1845. While yet in his teens, young Varner enlisted in the army and fought for the Union until 1865.

Born July 1, 1856, he was left an orphan at the tender age of three. He was consigned to St. Mary's Orphan Asylum in Detroit. He, with twenty-one other orphan boys, was subsequently sent to the German Colony of Pioneer Farmers in Clinton county, Mich., where he was adopted by farmer John Adam Schmidt. He remained with the latter until he was twelve years old, when he managed to run away and returned to the Orphan Asylum. In 1862 he was apprenticed to a cobbler by the name of Joseph Meiser. He worked at this trade for three years. A short time later he became bell boy in the Michigan Exchange Hotel. Young Solders subsequently became a Western Union messengei boy and continuing in the service, serving, by promotion, as battery man, line repairer, etc., he finally learned the art of telegraphy.

Judge Solders refused to accept a second term and was succeeded As Chief of Police, Superintendent Hoehn made a name for him by Judge Hutchins. In 1888 Judge Solders was elected a Judge of self that was respected by every resident of the city and which was the Common Pleas Courts of Cuyahoga county, and in the following known in all the large cities of the country.
