SPOKANE GAMBLERS
ARE OUT OF A JOB

sheriff's Office state that it could
not possibly have come from the
county building.
Prominent frequenters of the
gaming houses are of the opinion
that matters will not stand as last
nights raid left them, that the
houses will gradually resume and
within a month the tables will be in
full blast again.
MIR. Durham could not be seen
this morning and no one qualified
to speak for him could be found,
but it is said that those back of
the matter will continue to push
the cases against the gambling
men.
1T is all spite work." vehement
ly protested a wellknown citizen
this morning, land why the Club
and the Warwick and some others
were exempted from this righteous
move is going to be hard to ex-
plain.
1T is not true that every table
was shut down. l know of four
which continued to run after the
raid. OF course, their proprietors
were not named in the warrants.
ITS a pure case of spite and the
pity is that under the law the
sheriff could not without infraction
Of his duty clear the whole lot of
them out.
ut makes the matter look to an
outsider as if the sheriff's office
could be made to discriminate by
some petty grudge-holder."
Chief of Police Reddy's time is az
most entirely occupied in running
the numerous bunco stories to
earth. and he could throw no light
on the gambling situation this
morning save to state that it was
his belief that Mr.. Burnham could
have handled the matter through
the city police had he wished, but
that absolutely no complaint from
any source had come to his office
against the gamblers.

italy. IL was refused, but Mahmud
proceeded to Paris, where he remains
in safety. All the sultan's blandish-
ments failed TO induce him TO return
to Constantinople, so the criminal
court was instructed to issue war
rant for Mahmud's arrest and to>try
the fugitive by default, with the re-
suit that he was condemned TO death.
A dispatch from Constantinople
dated December IS, 1899, announced
that the fight of the sultan's broth
er-in-law, Damad Mahmud Pasha,
during the previous week, with his
wife's Jewels and all the money he
could collect, had caused a great SEN
sation there. He was accompanied by
his two sons, Princes Sabaggedit and
Luthfalla.
IL was ascertained that Mahmud
sailed for Marseilles on steamer, and
the Turkish government telegraphed
TO the French minister of foreign af-
fairs, M. Delcnsse, asking for the ar
rest Of the fugitive on his arrival at
Marseilles and his return TO CONSTANT
nople on the charge that he was inn
plicated in plot to assassinate the
sultan. This accusation, however. was
generally discredited. and II was be-
lieved the refugee was the victim Of
an intrigue.
A later dispatch from Constantine
pie said that Mahmud, who intended
to stay in Paris for a time. declared
that the charge he. had appropriated
money and accepted brides was cal
umny. and that he was being perse-
cuted by political intriguers. Mahpud
announced that he intended to go to
London, aud that when he reached that
city he would publish an open letter,
exposing the methods and policies of
Sultan Abdul Hamid. and also

creed the divorce of HIS sister, Seniha

Mahmud secured 100000 just before
his departure, but his principal estates
were confscated and he and HIS sons
were officially proclaimed renegades
and outlaws.
