CRUSADE AGAINST GAMBLING.
New Chief of Police at Chicago Makes
Mauv Arrests,

CHICAGO, July 2s-Spectacular raiding
of handbook resorts, In which eighty-four
men were taken prisoners in four hours
work, marked John NJ. Collins second day s
work as general superintendent of the Chi
cago police department. Then, at night.
came descents on ten poker games.
Following out his startling action of
Wednesday evening, when he interrupted
several time-h -honored poker games, the new
chief yesterday removed Assistant Chief
Schuettler from the command of the gam
bling detail'' and took personal charge
himself, announcing at the same time that
he would hold his inspectors responsible
for whatever gambling was discovered in
their districts.
Armed with search warrants, "the gam
bling detail continued at night the raids
which had terrorized the gambling frater-
nifty during the preceding twenty-four
hours. A score of warrants to which the
signatures of two police magistrates were
appended, was given to the raiders, and de-
scents on ten clubs" were made before
midnight. The paraphernalia, or that part
of it left intact after the onslaught of the
raiders, was confiscated
