SUSPECTS VEST SIDE CLUB,
But Judge GaynOr Recor Himself Against
"Lauless. Spectacular Raids."

Supreme Court Justice William j. Gaynor
in Brooklyn yesterday handed down
decision denying the application Tor an
injunction to restrain Police Commissioner
McAdoo and other police officials from
interfering with John Phelps individually
and as president of the West Side Club,
Manhattan. At the same time he filed
an opinion severely scoring the police for
the violent methods used in their recent
sensational raid on the club. These are
extracts from the opinion:
A captain OF police, with twenty-five police
men armed with axes suddenly broke into
the rooms of the West Side Club on the second

and broke in the windows. They then broke

GIRL FOUND hound AND GAGGED.
Father Tells story to Cop, Who Calls Doctor
Bishop, VINO Says She's Not Hurt.

John Farrell, laborer, who lives on the
second floor of the rear house at 1888 Fourth
avenue, Brooklyn, got home from work at
O'Clock yesterday afternoon and found the
door OF his home locked. Farrell knew his
wife was not at home. but he rather ex-
pected that his sixteen -year-old daughter,
Mary. would be on hand to greet him. She
didn't answer to his knocking. and he went
away and returned in an hour
After trying the door the second time he
got ladder and put it up in front OF his
house. He climbed it and says he found
Mary, his daughter, lying on the floor bound
and gagged As soon as he united her Mary
told tale OF a black mustached villain of
the dime novel kind who had bound and
gagged her and then ransacked the house,
finding IS in a bureau drawer for his trouble
This story troubled Farrell. and he con-
fided it to Policeman Stafford of the Sixth
avenue station. who thought that if a young
woman had been bound and gagged by some
burly rufffan she ought to be in need OF a
PHYSICIANS attention, Stafford called an
ambulance from the Seney Hospital, and
DR.. Bishop came with it, He heard the
bound and gag yarn, felt Mary's pulse and
then left saying there was nothing the
matter with her.
That was about the way the police felt
over the bound and gagged story.

phia Mint Thrown Out Of Work.
PHILADELPHIA, June 12.-More than 200
employees OF the mint we're thrown out Of
work indefinitely this afternoon. The coin
ing department and the melting room were
closed down because OF lack Of silver
bullion and may not be opened again for
many months. This action was the result
Of an order received from Washington on
Saturday.
Every year the whole manufactu ring
department Of the mint. with the exception
of the machine shops and the carpenter
shops. is closed down few weeks in tho
summer for repairs. 1t usually starts up
again as soon as the repairs are completed.
For the flrst time in many years there IL
now no assn rance as to when coinage will
be resumed. Assistant Superintendent
Norris said to-day:
This is a most unus ual order. Weusually
know when We are to start up again, but
the order is to close down indefinitely.
II the Government takes a notion to send
us some more silver we may resume coinage
in few weeks, but 1t Is possible that this
may not OCCUR until late in the fall. It
Is said that the Treasury vaults inv ashing-
ton are full Of silver coins and that the
Government wants to put some OF them In
circulation before we make any moro.
We have received no official explanation,
however. for the present order"
