POOLROONIS WIDE OPEN.
GAMBLERS PARADISE IN QUEENS
VISITED BY TRIBUNE REPORTER.


Some Of the leading poolroom men in this
city have built at a considerable expense "a
gamblers paradise" in Maspeth. Long Island
Not only one house but many houses have been
built there by them for the special purpose of
conducting a poolroom business and thereby
increasing their i'll gotten gains. Every one Of
these houses was running wide open yesterday
afternoon, and bets ranging from 81 to $1,000
could easily be made the result of the races
at Saratoga or Chicago. The keepers and en-
ployes of these rooms appeared to be uncon-
scious of the present police disclosures and their
actions indicated that they had paid literally TO
some one to protect them from any effort to
close their houses. and that they firmly
convinced that those who stood as their pro-
tectors' could perform the service required
No one was refused admission to these places
The doors leading to the gambling rooms in the
buildings easily swung wide open and old and
young who passed by were invited to enter. In
size and in workmanship these houses eclipse
any similar structures ever built used for
gambling purposes within the city limits. so
far as known One of these houses is conducted
by club calling itself the Pastime Club. This
house was built 20 be occupied by poolroom
II can comfortably house 1000 persons. and it is
known that at least 8, 700 persons visited it on
last Saturday either TO bet or TO learn the re-
suit Of the running races at various tracks IN
this country
NO wonder that the Borough OF Queens -
infested with crooks OF all kinds" said an old
man in speaking 10 a Tribune reporter yester-
dav. and that robberies are nightly reported
I am positive that many OF these crooks live
miles away from the Borough of Queens and
that they have been attracted to the borough
by the daring way in which large number OF
poolrooms are being operated there. After the
gambling for the day is ended at the rooms
the crooks swarm over the borough and they
steal right and left TO get money TO make bet
on the following day. To stop the thievery IN
the district the police must first close up the
poolrooms there. They will have no difficulty
in getting evidence against the rooms Every
place is wide open. nearly every person in the
district who is not really blind knows where
they are, and many persons are acquainted
with the hackers of the rooms"
POLICE TURN THEIR BACKS.
since Whitney's confession have the police
in Maspeth shown any sign OF fear, and have
they made any effort to close the roons?" was
asked
The police in Maspeth have their backs still
turned 10 the poolrooms." replied the old man.
/ NO need of telling you why their backs so
| turned. Gamblers are not building houses in

certain that they viii be able to reap a har-

transported. while others worked upon
the road in its construction, but all were
engaged in the common business Of the
defendant in the construction of the rail-
road. and all were fellow servants, as to
whom defendant occupied the position of
master. As such master 1t was his duty
to furnish presumably safe machines, APP
pliances and instrumentaities for the

in the ordinary use of the appliances. the
servant assumed the risk of injury from
the negligence of his fellow servant.

Children are especially liable to acute

OF childhood are catarrh. All forms Of
sore throat, quinsy, Group, hoarscness,
and laryngitis are but different phases
of catarrh.
These affections, in the acute
form, may pass away without treat
ment, but they leave foundation
for chronic catarrh in later years. Even
slight cold is acute catarrh, and rem
