Making War ON Gamblers.

NEW ORLEANS, Sept. 26.-The biggest
fight ever made here against the gamb.
lers has just begun. The state law pro.
hibits gambling, but it has not been en-
forced for years, and in the face of the
law Mayor Shakespeare aud Guillotte
licensed the gambling saloons, the latter
paying money to the city authorities for
the support of the aims house. During
the last few weeks there have been sew
eral scandals connected with the gamb.
ling houses, several ugly rows occurring
in them, and a case of sharpers beating
the gamblers out of some $4,000 with
loaded dice. The gamblers foolishly
squealed over their loss, thus calling at
tention to the publicity with which
they Were carrying on their business in
defiance of the law. Judge Ferguson,
Of the criminal district court, ordered
the grand jury to make special exami-
nationI of the gambling houses. He
called aattention to the law, and pointed
oubwhere number of faro and other
ehouses were carried on in defiance of it,
naming the streets and buildings in
which this business is conducted. He
ordered the grand jury to An. a. .ssa sncs. take
action a., in the matssa;not m,asgsF, not o. OF against
y see -. gam sai,J out against h mem beis
OF o, !, the e,lp.4s p4sss<4sce force who, Wing this
xloiatSion OF the law to golng on IN
Tnelr precincts, failed sport it, Judge
Ferguson found the ad jury in full
sympathy with hint This yald ON the
gamblers. 1t sumSoned the necessary
witnesses at oncsSad called upon Chief
of Police GasteSto close all gambling
institutions inlfhe city, arrest all per-
sons found mere, seize all gambling
parapherpsga and bring it to the police
station, al to report from day to day
what pygress he had made in the mat
ter of ring the gam bling houses. The
moye aEsbegun in earnest, for Judge
Ee,a is strongly pledged to break
M gdk ling, and has begun a crusade
,.snich he and the grand jury will keep
up to the end, and if the police do not
act they are likely to get into trouble.
The gambling saloons have always been
open in New Orleans, except for week
once, and have been either licensed by
the state or the city, or tolerated by the
notice.

CON VICTS ESCAPE.
COMMODORE MILLER AND TWELVE
OTHERS AT LARGE.

They Appropriate the Weapons of tn.
Lewis and His Deputies at Once Start il
/ Pursuit of the Fugitives.
/ DALLAS, Sept. 81. -" Commodore
Miller killed his guard and is at large
sgain."
Such was the tartling news received
The report spread like wild fire and a
! thousand rumors few over the city. II
was reported that Ed Forester. mana.
ger OF the county convicts, had been
Drained with a rock hurled by Commo-
dore Miller and then shot with his own
pistol. Little knots of angry and excited
| men gathered ON the street corners and
denounced Commodore in savage terms.
He was branded as a rape-fend, a rob-
| Der of the boldest type, a
murderer and black hearted fend.
The excited citizens also denounced
other parties whom they ac-
cused of saving the neck of Commodore
Miller in days gone by. VIII Forres-
ter, guard at the quarries near Eagle
Ford, came TO the city for assistance to
run down and capture Commodore Mil
ler and twelve other convicts who made
their escape at 8 o'clock Monday. The
facts in the case are as follows:
Ed Forester, manager of the county
convicts, had been working Commodore
Miller and twelve other prisoners in the
quarries near Eagle Ford. Will For
rester had been assisting him as
guard. Will was sitting on the bank,
shot gun in hand, when rock came
whizzing along and knocked him fat.
AT the same instant his brother in the
pit was knocked down. Both men were
oyerpowered and disarlned. Commo-
dore appropriated the double -barreled
shotgun and pistols to his own use and
fed, followed by his companions.
Neither of the guards are badly injured.
Sheriff Lewis and his deputies at once
started in pursuit of the fugitives. A
posse of police officers and another posse
of citizens headed by Constable Morton
and Ford House also secured horses and
putting spurs to them, rode away in the
direction of Eagle Ford.
Two months ago Commodore Miller
was convicted in the county court of
carrying concealed weapons and fined
5000 and costs, and given Jail sentence.
Judge Bower warned the guards that
Commodore Miller was desperate man,
and ordered them to keep the ball and
chain on him at all times. Commodore
behaved himself, won the confidence of
The Forresters and the irons, it is said,
were removed. He is armed to the teeth
md a bloody fight is sure to follow if
lie is surrounded by the officers on his
rail.
