Conditions Are Rank.

Conditions Are Rank.
The order has come about from
necessity" said Special officer Thorn
as this morning in speaking of the
move, 1--WE have not intended to be
radical in the matter but weeks of
investigation and Of efforts to regu-
late has convinced us that the move
is a necessity. The red light dis
trict here has become so lawless, so
absolutely defiant Of all attempts at
regulation that the radical move is
the only thing left to make.
There is regular business In
steering strangers to the town to
that district where by one means or
another whatever money the men
possess is taken from them. OF
course the men will not make com
plant and the fact that the inmates
Of those houses can take such adj
vantage makes them more lawless

Gently was plundered of $500 there
but rather than have It known that
he was there he would make no
complaint. That kind of robbery goes
on continually and there is a class
of pimps in certain districts of the
town that do little else than getting
men for the purpose
Besides the matchmaking and
robbery that goes on, the district
is constantly the place for drunken
rows and free for all fights, FIRE. ,
quently the officers are down there
nearly all night trying to preserve
order or to stop some rough house
and in the mean time the up town
district is left practically without
protection against crime or fire. Last
night there was fighting and disor.

Objections TO the Special Officers.

here is a great deal OF strenuous
objections to the action of the spe-

The reason for the order is not

d for the order being pushed at Ii
