Charles w. Gardner Writes Description
of 1t from His Cell in the, Tombs.
New YORK. April Mayor Geo. Pm
Bemis, Of Omaha, recently sent q list
of quotations TO Mayor Gilroy asking
him about the methods used In this city
for controlling or regulating gambling
saloons and the social evil. The COM
municatlcn was referred to the Police
Board and the latter have placed the
letter on file. Chas. w. Gardner from
his cell In the Tombs. has endeavored
10 answer the questions from personal
observations made while chief OF detec-
tives OF the Parkhurst Society. To Q
reporter Gardner said there are about
|. 500 gambling houses which are run
ming i'm this city in violation OF law
with the knowledge OF the police.
They consist OF faro banks, pool
rooms policy shops, envelope roulette,
red and black, poker and crap games.
These places are principally backed by
Tammany politicians who pay from $50
to SlO0 per -aanth TO the police TO vio-
late the law with ihuQnity. The
heavier games also pay percentage OF
their earnings. just previous 10 mu-
nicipal election q spasm OF virtue comes
over our authorities. and few OF the
places are closed temporarily. After
some years the chief OF police has aScer-
tanned that the pool rooms have violated
the law and ordered them closed. There
are between eight and nine
thousand licensed saloons In this city.
Political influence affect the granting Of
a license moro than character with the
excise board, and the law Is seldom
used TO revoke license by them. Sew
en-elghths OF the saloon-keepers violate
the laws and keep open house every
day In the week until compelled TO close
their doors from sheer physical exhaus-
ton. They are banded together IN
secret organization for mutual protec-
ton and defiance They work In con-
cert with the police and pay them trio-
ute in fund which they raise by as
sessment, which is known as the
emergency fund" The oon-keepers
who refuse 10 contribute 10 this black
mail system are arrested and convicted.
Tammanny elected its entire comfy
ticket at the last municipal election by
about $4,000 majority, which Is owing
almost entirely TO the influence OF the
liquor interests. At the time man
named Sheehan pledged them that they
should thereafter be- exempt from In
reference and backmail at the hands
of tho police, but the pledge was never
fulfilled. There are about $4,000 DISCO
lutte women in this city, some carrying
on business in fat houses, others plying
their avocatlon In the streets without
interference. We have about 500 dis.
orderly houses, with an average OF
eight inmates each. They are not con-
fined to any particular district, but are
principally in the 4th. 9Th. 10th, 18th,
i4th. 18th, 18th, 10th, Goth and 22nd
police precincts. These places are run
openly with the knowledge and con-
nivance OF the police.

terrible struggle with a Maniac.

CHICAGO, April while Robert Ged-
ney, Of Philadelphia, and George Doyle,
Of Chicago, were viewing the city from
the roof of the Grand Northern Hotel,
Yesterday, Gedney became suddenly In
sane and attempted to throw his COM
paniyn to the ground, $50 feet below.
A desperate struggle took place, and
DOYLE only saved his life by strategy.
Gedney was gradually forcing him to
the edge Of the roof, when he asked
time to pray. This the maniac granted
and as he stepped back Doyle made a
dash for the scuttle and darted down
stairs. Gedney came to Chicago a week
ago with his father. Tuesday the father
went to Omaha. Physicians say Ged-
ney will be all right in few days.

>versary wedding day Of Captain and
Mrs. Thos. Moore, which was celebrated
at their handsome home crosse Lawn"

Ohio. The scene certainly presented n
fine appearance % an observer, making
him think that the gates OF all that is
beautiful and brilliant had been opened
especially for the occasion. The grounds
and house were Illuminated In every
nook aud corner, reminding one of the
elegant and inimitab.e receptions which
were given az the Moore Mansion" be-
fore it burned down some years ago,

ceived az the main entrance by Mr..
Will Mears, OF Steubenyille, o.; Mrs

IN lavender silk trimmed in lace; Miss
Lucy Moore looked like q fairy 10 pink

" dressed 10 empire gown made OF red
silk. Upon entering the parlcr the
guests were received by the "bride and
groom, b" who were kept busy and rem
dered happy in receiving cOngratule-
tiOns OF their numerous friends. One,

" realized that they had glided peace
fully and happily down the matrimo-
Mai stream for so long 8 period as fifty

and lavender ribbons, and her bouquet
was bunch Of yellow roses. Capt.
