Another subterfuge adopted of late
by one of the four big banks is the
use of a system of signs of a phonog-

OLD HAND BRANCHES OUT.
Fan-tan and pai-kau are being
patronized by hundreds of Chinese ev-
cry day and night right in the heart
of the city. In the basement of the
building at the Eva corner of King
and Maunakea streets, the game which
was moved on by the police some
time ago, is working overtime. This
layout is run by an individual who,
for long time, held the commission
OF a special police officer but who has
of late filled another position. There
is every reason to believe, however,
that he is still on the county payroll,
as he continues TO retain his star.
This man has branched out of late
and is said to be interested in the fan
tan and pai-kau games which run
| nightly at the Eva corner of King
and Kekaulike streets, in the upper
story of the building formerly used as
feed store. This place has been open
about five weeks.
MUST GET ADMISSION TICKET.
Another game said to be conducted
in the same interests as the above
two, is operated on Smith street, near
Hotel street, and on the Waikiki side,
entrance being gained by an alleyway
at the back of Flung Tais store. The
building, which is a two-story affair,
Is on the left hand side OF the alley
way going in and the game is run in
the top story which is practically part
of the store. Every Saturday night
sees eighty or ninety Cinnamon play
ing and has for the last six weeks
On other nights smaller games are
conducted.
All these three places are extensive
ly patronized by Chinese and as soor
as the word gets round to one place
that there is danger of a raid, the
gamblers forthwith pull up stakes and
shift the scene of their operations tC
one OF the other two places.
Before a player is allowed admis
sion TO any one of the three game,
mentioned he must first procure {
ticket from the ex-police officer re-
ferred to, and which has TO be pre-
sented to the door keeper to be hon
cred.

in the three-story house on the mauka
side of King street, near Liliha street
The big game which was recently run
in the rear Of the Maternity Home has
found Judgment here and fan-tan and
pai-kau flourish day and night.
Two of the biggest Chinese gamblers
in Hawaii are partners in this game,
which was installed ten days ago. The
place has not been visited by the police
since Moore cleared out, although COM
plants have been made to the depart
ment about it and the three games
aforementioned. No man has even
been sent from police headquarters to
investigate.
GAME ON VINEYARD STREET
UNMOLESTED.
A Chinese game as big or bigger than
the four foregoing is run every night
in the stables on Vineyard street, on
the Eva side of the River street bridge,
and situated on the mauka side of the
street.
This joint has been in active opera
ton for over year and at least hun
dred Cinnamon We're playing fan-tan
and pai-kau there yesterday after
noon and evening. Police officers are
said to visit the place from time TO
time, but Notwithstanding this, the
game is allowed to run unmolested. A
small raid was made, it is true, about
two months ago, but day or two after
business was resumed at the old stand.
RARE POLICE ACTIVITY.
In striking contrast to the dilatori-
ness of the police in this instance, is
the startling rapidity with which they
raided the Mendonca premises on Smith
street and did big damage to plate
glass and other property in so doing.
This alleged game had only been run
ming a day when the raid took place on
the 3rd inst, and over forty arrests
were made.
On Sunday last this same place was
again raided and forty odd arrests
made, while other games in the neigh
borhood which have been running wide
open for weeks and months have never
been molested.
THE BONE MILL LAY OUT.
The Kalihi game near the fertilizer
works, and which was raided by the
police after 1t had been exposed in the
Advertiser, has been running more or
less interruptedly ever since. On FRI
day evening last, however, officer
Apana raided the place and succeeded
in making five arrests, notwithstand-
ing that the building was filled with
gamblers to the number Of, perhaps,
seventy.
Who says that the police aren't do
ing anything?
Who says that there's wide-open
gambling in Honolulu? The very idea!
