    I think the man in the top hat is Rhinelander Waldo, then NYC's Police Commissioner: www.absoluteastronomy.com/topics/Rhinelander_Waldo And that's "Paymaster" Charles Conard -- many Google hits for him, but I didn't find anything biographical.

    In the movie, "Ragtime," Rhinelander Waldo was played by Jimmy Cagney.

Gaynor & Waldo (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

  • Dean Z said:
    This is New York City mayor William Jay Gaynor (1849-1913) with Rhinelander Waldo (1877-1927) the seventh New York City Fire Commissioner. This appears to be the May 18, 1912, Police Parade in New York City. The New-York Tribune claimed almost a million residents lined the street as 7,784 marched in the street. Sources: New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]), 19 May 1912. Chronicling America: Historic American Newspapers. Lib. of Congress.
