Show GAMBLING HOUSES CLOSED order of the fire and pollee police board put into efrece J RESORTS DARK LAST NIGHT keepers regard the movement against them as a serious one conflicting views regarding tho the expediency of the order sporting men man preparing to I 1 leave cave the city two hundred lose their jobs As foretold in the tribune the reign of king faro arro and its rival rulers in the empire ot of chance was brought to an all abrupt termination yesterday afternoon when chief pratt executing bonig tho the callers or of tile the police and F alro commission in notified tile tho keepers ot of e very every resort in milich v aich gambling was con conducted duct to close up it was 2 when tho the notice n was va served and d an hour later Is ic r the bank rolls had bad been withdrawn the pala paia phernella pher nalla boxed up the worshippers wor shippers at the fickle throne dismissed and the key turned lit in as many locks as there were doors leading I 1 into the arenas ot of chance the keepers and croupiers who had that morning lead the tribune were for it and when m hen the judgment of the board was pronounced noun ced received it philosophies philosophically lly and resignedly no keeper wa overlooked r nor did tiny any device through which a stake la Is played escape the fai reaching reflects 0 of the moulds decree the fare box was waa turned up the brakes put on the roulette wheel tho the blanket drawn oner the stud hoise the hood drawn over the poker table babl e tile the slot blot I 1 machines nac illanes that cast their necromancy cro mancy over youth and age a ge alike ordered out and everything unless un lest perhaps it was the dice box with which mans to gamble Is agrati fled ordered front from view the order not only applied to those places that operate with wide open onen portals and on which ii a fine 0 of 50 each month has been levied but to the back rooms and poker rooms and the dismal rooms in which the festive mongolians Mongo lians congregate c to try their hands a chance from these I 1 acting poured keepers and dealers and worshipers into the streets below to discuss the order that had so suddenly bereft them of occupations it was condemned vigorously and by some profanely condemned in public and in private priva tp on oil the other liand hand was that contingent which Is unalterably opposed to gambling of however mild a form who rejoiced that the police and fire commissioners had ordered the law enforced and who ho have all the while urged the wiping ot of it out and so it was that T when hen night came the rooms so long alluringly resplendent with the tha light of twenty bulbs or more were in total darkness this spec spectacle t acle was preben prevented ted at five regular gaming houses at five poker rooms and seven chinese joints from which tho the city has hitherto acquired a a revenue of 0 per month two hundred persons it Is claimed 1 by y the game keepers have been beau thrown out of employment and the disbursement ot of 1200 a day stopped ot course its the order said a keeper last night and tho the only thing for us its to do Is to take our medicine and obey it it comes at a very bad time and it catches many without a M shilling shill lne in their pockets many of 0 these hae fai nilles dependent on oil them find and while I 1 iun arn not going to criticism criticise critic ise jo those who gave the order I 1 think it would have been more humane had they given the tha men inen employed fifteen days in ili which to save money with which to get out ot of town As it Is that with the greater number Is impossible not the money with aich which t to ride out and it seems to mo me that it would bo be brutal to ask them to go out as blind baggage on some it has worked actual hardship theres one case where a dealers wife and child are arc both sick lit in bod bed I 1 know that man has drawn his wages in advance and here lie he Is without a dollar and two sick people on ills hands but the thinell thing ll only last a few days volunteered bied a cheerful member of the craft dont tool fool yourself tho the play was not made that way was the reply and with his hands in its his overcoat pockets tile the keeper moved on down the there are conflicting lews among those who do not indulge in gambling gambl ng on tho the propriety of tile the order closing it down the fraternity Is productive nonproductive non no n said a well known merchant and simply lives upon what nhat it succeeds in mulching mulcting ting the public of it exposes young and old eld to an evil to which tile the downfall of a greater number Is traced thin than all others combined it has been claimed that these people put 1000 or more in circulation each day but where does docs it como come front from all from the pauls and peters who nho are unwary enough to seat themselves them seIN es at the games and sacrifice what Is due ti the wife and child I 1 say its all rot such su h argument as that close clos em cm up tight and you 11 see more children and butor better fed bet ter clothed children going to our pub 10 lie IO schools and fewer persons dependent on charity now let tile the board get after aeto that other evil the house ot of ill tame fame and stamp that out its a disgrace to atty any city here heie we are confronted by them in every part ot of town and I 1 maintain that it Is a to civilization his big netz neighbor libor was less radical in his demands 1 I 1 believe said hr he in regula regulating tInK these evils as in other cities and I 1 want to say right here that tho the police have rc regulated gu them hero here about as air well its as find it any place I 1 in 1 I the land people will gain gamble ble its one of the th vices to which human nature natu re Is addicted and it if it must be tolerated then lt lit it I 1 be with open doors that the man who sits down at CL a table nay may have the advantage ot of police protection it seems to me too that this Is a 06 bull bad time to do anything that will in terrero with the revenues of the c city it y or ot of t trade r ado I 1 know it has been a haid is I 1 d st gl for mo me for some time and I 1 know that when the money Is in circulation we get our share of it lot let the thing be and that will ga satisfy tiffy me those these are types of those by which the order of the commission Is beleiff discussed it at the counter on the curl a tone atone and in the resorts rc sorta one thing ts la certain the house Is 13 in darkness and will be b followed by an all exodus mich as frequently occurred in feimer days |
