FORT GEORGE WIDE OPEN.
Large Cr0zcd Finds Drinks Plenty
bit Sandwiches FezC.

Little Coney Island Fort George has
come to be known, earned its title truly yester-
day. 1t was probably as wide open. from the ex-
else law point Of view as it has ever been. and
there was practically effort made TO conceal
the sale of drinks.
Fully fifty thousand people visited the resort
yesterday afternoon and last night and the
Third and Amsterdam avenue surface cars were
packed all day. Every form Of amusement was
patronized to a liberal extent The Ferris wheels
were crowded all day. and shorter trips than
usual, without the customary stop in mid-air,
were given, in order to satisfy the waiting
patrons. Merry-go-rounds were crowded and
patrons waited In line to try them. Shooting
galleries and all games of chance had crowds in
front Of the booths from shortly after noon until
late at night, and the popcorn men and peanut
vendors did a rushing business.
But the places that appeared to be most pop
ular were the various concert halls and beer
gardens. where customers could sit and hear the
music while getting something cooling to drink.
The Raines law sandwich not in evidence.
One Of the larger hotels. which a week ago had
newly painted sign in front reading open:
Walk in" dispensed with the sign yesterday.
and had the doors wide open. These doors lead
directly from the sidewalk, and the large gar
den Of the hotel was crowded. On some tables
there were plates. but the sandwiches if there
iSau ever OSSIl any, naO before ppear6Co
some unusually hungry patron not being able to
restrain his appetite The Trocadero, the largest
music hall at Fort George had a crowded house
all day and evening The sandwiches in this
place had also vanished.
The recent decision Of Attorney General Mayer
on the status of the "hotel" under the new
Prentice law amendment to the Raines law had
evidently been interpreted very favOrably by
proprtetors of places at Fort George Two
weeks ago, before the decision was rendered
several places, which had been saloons or small
hotels, were closed, apparently for good. But
yesterday every place available for the sale OF
drinks was used. Several places which had
been closed were wide open, and new signs an
nouncing this and that hotel were SEEN Whether
there We're real rooms or the word "hoteT' had
been hung out merely to attract customers to
buy beer is matter for conjecture.
At the Casino on top Of the hill at Fort George,
there was an unusually large crowd during the
late afternoon and early evening. Drinks were
served to any that wanted them, and even an
occasional sandwich appeared. Wonderland
Park, across the thorOughfare from Little COney
Island" was also crowded. and the attractions
there were as eagerly patronized as at other
places.

Francisco. At $3.50 y. m. an extra cdi-
tlon was published giving all the news
OF the day received up to the time of
the closing Of the messenger service to
the cable hut ON the san Francisco
beach.
Many people had come down town
and followed the dispatches as they
were published at the cable Office. The
Bulletin In order to get the much
sought news to the great majority in
the outside districts ran off large OK
ira edition.
Brightest ncwsboys Of the city wcro
selected for the work. The big Won
Hamm- Young REQ bus was brought IN
to service and spccded with boys and
papers to the residence sections where
the papers were quickly taken by the
anxious people. The REQ Bulletin boys
did rushing business and were hailed
with delight by the hundreds who had
been receiving the widest rumors on
ancient news throughout the day. They
got the latest news and reliable news
from the Bulletin.
