NO POOL-ROOMS Open TO-DAY.

Through published statements the impress
sion was general this morning IN sporting cir.
cles that the pooi-rooms. which have been
closed for the past two weeks, would all open
to-day under the advice of Howe uummel.
that they could execute commissions for
bettors and place at the race track all wagers
made In the city pool-rooms.
The regulations % the Ives Pool law make
1t permissible for any person to bet at the
tracks where the racing extends from the
Spring until the Autumn. Howe & Hummel
can md nothing in this law TO prevent the city
commission merchants " from doing all the
business they want at the old stands and In a
manner not q great deal changed from the
old way.
But In an hours tour this morning OF such
well-known places as Deiaceyb, SO Park Row ;
Mahoney's, next door to the corner Of Centre
and Chambers streets; Lovells, Barclay
street, aud Ridge Leviens. Barclay street,
an EVENING WORLD reporter found not the
lightest Indication that any business was In
progress.
Peter Delacey said he was sure nothing
would be done to-day, bat that eventually all
hands would open up again.
AT the other re sorts everything was covered
thickly with dust, and not person was seen
except the jaritor In either place.
Lawyer Abe Hummel told the reporter that
1t had been nnally DECIDED not to do any COM
mission business to-day, but that at meeting
OF the Bookmakers' Association tomorrow the
exact date Of their re-entry into business
would be decided upon.
There are some who say that Thursday next
will see the "commission dealers once again
marking up the old familiar odds"
