AUTHORITIES MIGHT FOLLOW SURROGATE
sILKNANs PLAN WHEN NEW
HoCSE OPENS

So far as could be ascertained last night, the
house at No. SO West Thirty third-st., which
has recently been renovated and decorated at
considerable expense, and which according TO
rumor is TO be conducted as a gambling house
has not yet been opened for business. A house
warming was given there several nights ago
and at the time the guests We're shown through
the house. the interior of which had been fitted
in q sumptuous manner Bronze gates and
grilled work protect the doors and windows.
Owing to the feeling against gambling and the
particular attention called to this house. those
who have charge of it have decided to refrain
from starting in business until the agitation has
blown over.
All day yesterday carpenters and decorators
were work putting the finishing touches on
the house, and the sound of hammers could be
heard distinctly in the street, while various
boxes, supposed to contain furnishings, we're
carried inside. Last night the house dimly
lighted. and while few persons called and were
admitted. it stated that those who went in
were friends Of the proprietor, that they called
TO see the house, and that there was 'nothtn'
dom inside.
Captain Sheehan has declared that the place
is not a gambling house. but is simply a private
dwelling house. This statement caused a laugh

who are in the habit Of buc1ng the tiger once

It has been said that Frank Farrell owns this
house and will conduct ii 4 gambling house.
Nh Farrell yesterday sent a specific and en-
rhatic denial OF this report 10 all newspapers.
Some curiosity manifested by those IN
terestei to know Just What steps the authorities
would take to suppress the place once gambling
started i was suggested that the policy OF
Surrogate Theodore II. SI1man. OF 1onkers,
might he effective. His plan Is to ascertain the
names of persons who visit any stated gambling

mace who knows by sight the men to be served
and when he sees any one for whom he has a

District Attorney Jerome. who started his fan
and winter work on Tuesday by making raid.

bae clear cases against Captain Creedon. OF the
East Eighty-egh tn-st. station, In which preclnct
the raid was made. and Creedon's wardman'
Downes, who was arrested
Mr. Jerome said that charges were being pre-
pared against Creedon and Downes for neglect OF
duty and other things which / cannot at this time
discuss and that criminal charges would be made
against Downes in addition. Asked If the grand
jury would consider Downes's case this week the
District Attorney replied that II would depend on
the condition of the calendar.
Mr. Jerome was elated the raid. and declared
that he and Commissioner Partridge were working
hand in hand in effort to better police condi-
tons He said that Commissioner Partridge knew
Of every step taken by him up to the time the raid
made.
NO doubt" he said the Commissioner is ham
pered in his efforts to better conditions 1t is
awful Job to work with the material that he has
got but he is working, nevertheless. He has been
very nice to allow ne TO cooperate with him He
has acted without jealousy and without antago-
nistic spirit and has welcomed every help that I
coIld give him. He never told me TO mind my own
business as in my opinion, smaller minded man
would have done.

REPORT F1FoRS oSEID4-sENEC4 ROUTE

The subcommittee appointed by the executives
committee of the Canal Association Of Greater
New-York to report the comparative merits Of
the Ontario and Oneida Seneca routes made its
report yesterday. In it's opinion, The Ontario
route would not be available because the type
OF vessel constructed for navigation on the lakes
is of different character from that OF vessels de
signed exclusively for canal and river navigation.
and the cost OF construction of vessels capable OF
navigating Lake Ontario, we'll as the canals,
would be considerably enhanced thus materially
increasing the interest charge on such vessels
It is convinced that the Oneida Seneca route
is the most practical. the most efficient and tho
most economical route for thousand ton
barge canal between the Great Lakes and the Hud-
River, and that this route combines the eie-
ments that. in the opinion of the subcommittee.
will re-estabiish the pre-eminent commercial posi-
ton OF the State and city OF New-4ork, and viii
enable the State to build I'D industries and manu-
factories rivaIling and exceeding In impor-
lance those of other States.
