 As result nearly forty so-caIled bucketshops in Boston with their vari- Ous branches throughout the state to- day closed up their business entirely or moved outside the state, the penalty of $1 900 fine or one years Imprisonment being more than the most venturesome cared to brave. The measure closes out all houses which cannot show bona fide written statements giving full in- formation as to every sale or purchase executed, with the names of the par from whom such property is bought, or to whom sold, the place where the transactions took place, and the price obtained Under the new law 8 refusal to furnish such statements is to be considered evidence that the transac- ton constitutes "bucketing.'
 One of the largest concerns affect ed has already sought to make it's headquarters in Providence, R. l., and will do a telephone business from this city. Other houses will endeavor to eopnect in similar way with the Bos- Ion offices of the New York Consolidat- Ad stock exchange. The closing of the houses in Boston throws many tele- graph operators, clerks and board boys, but of employment.
