  COMPLAINT AGAINST A POLICE SUPERINTENDENT. A letter was read, dated, 7 Cyril-crescent, Cardiff, and signed Austin Patten, in which a complaint was made of the offensive language used by Superintendent Hayward towards him. Mr Patten had, he wrote, addressed a letter to Superintendent Hayward, but was dissatisfied with the answer. The Chief Constable said he replied to Mr Patten's letter to the effect that he did not think an apology from the superintendent at all necessary. The Superintendent explained the affair, which was a mere casual remark made more especially to another man. The committee decided that if Mr Patten chose to attend the next meeting, the matter would be further gone into. Notice of the meeting on Wednesday had been given Mr. Patten.

  LENIENCY AT CARDIFF POLICE-COURT. The business at Cardiff Police-court on Monday was disposed of in twenty minutes, and it was a real happy day for the prisoners. There were four of them - one "drunk" and three "disorderlies" - and the magistrates (Councillor W. T. Symonds and Mr. C. H. Evans), let them all off with a caution. "It's all peace here today," said Mr. Evans.
  Mr. Symonds (to Superintendent Hayward): I suppose you'll be a bit lenient to-night!
  Superintendent Hayward: We shan't put the screw on too tight, if they don't go too far. (Laughter.)
  Mr. Symonds: I suppose the excuse will be celebrating Peace.?
  Superintendent Hayward: That's just it, sir. They have no excuse this morning. They don't know what to say. They have all pleaded guilty.

 CARDIFF POLICE FORCE Inspected by Captain Terry
  The annual inspection of the police force of the city of Cardiff by Captain H. D. Terry, his Majesty's Inspector of Constabulary, took place this morning in the parade-hall at the Law Courts.
  The inspection was orginally fixed for the Cardiff Arms Park, but owing to the wet weather it was deemed advisable to transfer the venue. There were on parade Head-constable M'Kenzie, Superintendents Hayward, Durston, and Yelland, nine inspectors, sixteen sergeants, three detectives, and 153 constables, making a total of 185. Those absent on duty numbered two inspectors, eight sergeants, detective-inspector, and two sergeants, and 39 constables, total 52, whilst four constables were absent on the sick list.
  Amongst those present at the inspection were Captain Lindsay (chief-constable of Glamorgan), and Councillors Richards and Mander. Owing to the smallneas of the parade-hail, it was impossible to drill the whole of the men, but Captain Terry selected No. 1. Company, which consisted of Superintendent Hayward, Inspectors John Davies and Robert Davies, with sergeants and men numbering altogether forty, and they were put through drill by Sergeant Francis, the drill instructor.
  At the close Captain Terry expressed himself highly satisfied, and stated to the drill-instructor that the men in the company were exceedingly smart. He asked if they had received any special training, and on being assured they had not and that the other men could drill equally as well, he said it was exceedingly well done. Afterwards Captain Terry inspected the mounted detachment outside the police offices, and also the books in the clerical department, finding everything to his satisfaction.
