GREAT BLOW TO POOLROOMS
MR.. SCHURMAN'S RAIDS RESULTED IN
CLOSING THEM TIGHTLY DOWN
TOWN YESTERDAY.

The poolroom raids that were planned and
carried out under the direction of Assistant Dis
trict Attorney George w. Schurman on Wednes-
day sent the keepers and employees Of poolrooms
IN the downtown districts scurrying to cover
Yesterday. Just when the hackers Of poolrooms
in many parts of the city were beginning to
grow bold on the thought that the day was not
far distant when they could operate once more
openly Mr. Schurman and others appeared to
upset their calculations. The appearance OF Mr..
Schrrman and his men in the haunts of the pool
room men was the biggest surprise that they
had received in months. 1t completely carried
them off their feet and nearly all OF them were
extremely weakened yesterday.
On holidays the poolroom keepers expect TO
swell their purses by heavy wagers from the
frequenters of their places. and their expecta-
ttons are usually realized. Most Of them week
ago TODAY had sweet dreams of getting large
sums of money from the public on July /. IN
stead Of doing a rushing business the majority
Of poolrooms in the downtown districts which
had been open on Monday were closed tightly
and deserted yesterday. Not only was there not
a sign of life in them. but there was nothing in
the rooms 10 indicate that they were ever used
by the poolroom men, and few of the latter and
their employees could be found.
A Tribune reporter visited a large number or
places where poolrooms had been running re-
Gently but he found one taking BETS not
even a handbook man. There were only small
number of persons who generally play in the
rooms about and they looked friendless and
forIorn In answer TO questions as TO where a
bet on the races at Sheepshead and on western
tracks could be placed they shook their heads
and said that there were no rooms in the negh-
borhood open. The reporter in his rounds met
an employe of a poolroom.
rs there anything doing to-day asked the
reporter. =, .,o.,oa

The reporter tried to learn why all the rooms
were clased The man looked az the reporter
for few moments and then said:
''You know just well as l do When we
thought We were getting on safe grouno we
learned to our sorrow and dismay that all the
crusaders were not dead. Say, this has been an
awful Fourth Of July to us. We were IKE the
