GAMBLERS CLOSE HOUSES.
Re.,ort in TenderIoin That TIP vas
Sent.

All through the Tenderloin last nlsht lIl'
tin was out for everybody in the gamollpg lr0
ternity to close up-and stay closed AS re
suit. at o'clock this morning 1t was repoFte"
that practically every place in the district IN
cluding all the more prominent houses hao
closed their doors. discharged their help anu
given word that there would be nothing DOING
for some time to come.
This report could not be verified by anybody
who would talk to be quoted, but men VINO
have long been closely identified with the inter
ests Of the gamblers Of the Tenderlo!n declared
they knew that all the prominent places had
closed and one man said that there were more
faro bank dealers looking for a job last night
than he had ever before seen at any time in this
city.
The police didn't to know anything
about this strange and sudden change of front
on the part of the Tenderloin gamblers. None
of them had seen any change in the outward
aspect Of things, they said, and among good
many people there was much doubt expressed
as to the report. If the gambling houses have
closed, It the general opinion that they had
done for a short time only and for some es-
pecialy urgent purpose.

the Recent Court Scandal

Dresden, March 1.-THE King of saxony has
written an open letter to his people, thanking
them for the proof of their sympathy with him
in the recent sad misfortune which had be-
fallen himself and his family. His majesty ex-
presses the hope that the perturbation and eX-
citement which seized a large section Of the
population in consequence of the distressing
events of last winter will now give place to
confidence.
In conclusion the King begs the people not to
believe those who aver that behind all the
miserable business lies tissue Of falsehood and
deception but to believe the word Of your King,
that this infinitely painful affair arose solely
from the ungovernabe passion Of woman who
had long before secretly fallen"

suited only his own views, he says, his amend

That he did not SO word his amendment was

ing the language already adopted by the Senate
in amending the Kasson reciprocity treaties.

worded. Senator Bacon also had offered an
amendment worded quoted above to the Gu
ban treaty at the previous session Of Congress
two months ago and it had been rejected.
Senator Depew said this evening that he ap-
proved The Tribune's position and would have
