NO ANTE-ELECTI0N GAMBLING.
Report That Police Will Permit It Is Dis
credited by Officials.

A humorous report was circulated yesterday to
the effect that order. ernanatng from some
mysterious source" had been passed down the
line TO every member Of the police force, allowing
all gambling houses TO resume operations. This
instruction, IL was limited, would remain in effec.
until after election. Police Headquarters and the
City Hall were said to be involved in the general
consent TO be lenent to poolrooms and the like
This rumor Was treated very lightly at Police
Headquarters. Commissioner Greene wished 70
be quoted merely as saying, IF any captain is
caught acting the alleged tip he is liable to
get himself into very serious trouble One official
at headquarters said AS to how this thing started
and how far IL is believed. don't know. We
don't go into II that far. There is nothing to IL.
and IL is not worth considering"
Regarding report that some gambling houses
had reOpened. General Greene said. when In
spector MCClusky returned from his vacation I
called him into my office and told him 10 make a
thorough investigation. which he did. The in
spector found none of the gambling houses open.
All I want is the street number OF these gambling
houses and I'll do the rest. Even anonymous
communications will receive prompt attention"
