HOUSES DARK AND DESERTED.
Inspector Walsh and Captain O'Connor, Of
the West Thrtieth-St station house, visited
twenty-one gambling houses in the Tenderloin
precinct, between 1 and o'clock this morning
and found them all closed. They went into some
Of the most famous and best known places IN
the city, including the places alleged to be run
by Frank Farrell near the Waldorf-Astoria
Hotel; Lou" Betts's, in Thirty-fourth-st., near
Broadway; KelIys, in Twenty -ninth-st., near
Broadway; "Shang' Draper's. in Twenty-eighth-
ST.. and Others and found no business OF any
kind being done at any of them.
The inspector and the captain got into the
houses In some instances. They went into both
the houses in East Thirty-third-st, near Fifth
ave. alleged to be Frank Farreils, one OF
which was raided by District Attorney Jerome
Captain Walsh and Inspector Brooks the night
of the Garfield raid Two colored boys met them
at the house at No. 33 and told them Mr.. Bur-
ridge was not ill., and that there was no one but
themselves in the house. The inspector and
captain decided they would like to see for them
selves, and they went in. They went all over
the house. and say they found nobody there, no
gambling implements, and that 1t looked as II
there were no gambling to be done.
The men also went to No. 81 and found a
negro porter there who said the Boss was out
and that nothing was going on. They saw for
themselves and said that the house was closed
and that the occupants had probably gone
away some time ago.
The inspector and captain then went to the
house which Ludlum keeps, at No. 141 West
Forty-irs They found the door locked, the
curtains drawn, no lights. and no sign of any
one being in the house
At the house known as Ora apers." on Twenty
eighth-st., off Fifth-ave., they found nothing
going and the place closed if one
lived there. The same condition Of affairs was
at Lou Bett's house, in Thrty-fourth-st, near
Broadway. Nothing appeared to be going on in
the house =
John Kelly was also visited. The house was
dark.
The other places were in the same condition.
The inspector and captain went into several
others, but, though they went all through the
houses, they found them quiet with only one or
two persons. caretakers. in them, and nothing
that looked like what is usually said to be going
IN those places.
The inspector and captain said they were thor
oughly satisfied that the gamblers had fed.
1t is said the reason for the sudden shutdown
is the presence Of a hundred detectives and
plain clothes around all the time and the
unusual vigilance of the Tenderloin The
gamblers, 1t is said, have moved out for time
