CHICAGO, July 31.-A grand jury
has filed a report in court, saying:
I'VE find that gambling is being car
ried on to its fullest extent in Chicago,
with doors wide open and cappers and
stool pigeons plying their vocation to
catch the unwary, for the purpose of
fleeing any victim who happens to
fall into their hands. and that the
heads Of the police department of this
city are giving some of the places
mentioned below ample protection
from arrest and prosecution
A list of places at which it is al
legged that gambling is being carried
on is appended. The jury gives as q
a reason for not returning indict-
ments against the proprietors of these
places that the assistant states attor-
ney informed them that it would be
be impossible to secure convictions.
The assistant states attorney denies
having made this statement. He says
he merely told the jury that it was
difficult to get Testimony which would
result in convictions.
