4sInes the Police Court yesterday Justice
Crutchfield4 declared that playing cards IN
saloons is against the law and that gam
bling in saloons will be stopped if he
can do it, There was a long legal 4wran-
git in court, there being four lawyers
altogether engaged in the Corrler case
before sentence was pronounced. The po-
lice have received orders to look out par
ticularly for this saloon gambling, ana
through the department every effort VIII
be made to stop it. It is regarded as the
most pernicious petty evil which Rich
lnond has to contend with just now.
In such cases the law provides that in
the event Of conviction Of the charge a
saloon keepers license may be revoked,
he may be fined, placed under bonds for
good behavior and also imprisoned The
minimum fine in these cases is 500 and
either one Of the other punishments or
all of them may be imposed in the dis
erection of the court Both the police and
the court are now after the gamblers,
and it is expected this will result in many
cases being made before the saloon men
find out that the law is in earnest in the
matter.
Detectives Wren and Gibson arrested
Corrieri and Johnson. They found some
score or more negroes there playing
chucl1-a-luck At the place Of Mr.. Barn
zono the game was skim and Policeman
Werner made the arrests. This case will
probably come up in the Police Court this
morning.
