RAIDGD AN old HOTEL
Police swoop Down on the At
lantie and Make Many
Prisoners.

Justice Potts had his hands full this
morning disposing of charges against
fourteen people who were captured last
night in raid upon an alleged disorderly
house at No. 81 Hudson street. better
known as the Atlantic Hotel and more
frequently called the Factory"
The hotel was at one time a famous
resort of English officers. 1t was then
kept by thrifty Scotchman named John
D. Rae It is only during recent years
that the hotel acquired such an unsavory
reputation. People living near the place
have seen it getting lower and lower,
but they did not lodge complaints with
the police until its disreputable inmates
began to make themselves obnoxious on
the street.
Three nights ago Chief Murphy de-
tailed Policeman Burke of the Fifth
precinct in citizens clothes to shadow the
place and report what he saw.The police
man corroborated the statements OF
people residing in the neighborhood.
PLANNED THE RAID.
Satisfied that the place was disorderly,
Chief Murphy last night planned raid.

tain Farrier, Policeman Burke, Detectives
