RICHMOND IS NOT
AN IMMORAL CITY
Report of Police Chief to the
Great Social Student
Shows This.
SPECULATES ON CONDITION
ESTIMATED FIGURES SHOWING
CONDITIONS IN RICHMOND BY
DR.. EMORY LANPHEAR SHOWS
CITY TO BE BAD.

Chief Bailey, OF the police depart
ment has received a letter from DR..
Emory Lanphear of St. Louis, one OF
the best known authorities on social
questions in America, asking him to
submit a report on the social evils
existing in this city. This report
will be embodied in an essay which
DR.. Lanphear will deliver before the
Tri-State Medical society OF Illinois,
Iowa and Missouri. His letter to the
Chief reads as follows:
II am preparing an exhaustive es-
say upon THE Social Evil in Ameri-
can Cities for presentation to the
Tri-State Medical society of Illinois,
Iowa and Missouri The chief Of po-
lice of Detroit reports that in his city
there are approximately $50 houses OF
III fame, containing about $3.50 girls,
with an additional 2.17O women of
loose character. Upon the same basis
OF computation Richmond should give
figures on the enclosed sheet. Please
make any corrections you may think
proper and return paper to me-"
Estimate Astonishing.
The estimate OF immortality exist
ing in this city as made by DR.. Ian
phear is a most astonishing one to
those who are acquainted with the
fact that less social evil exists in
Richmond than in any other city of its
size in the middle west. DR.. Ian.
phear's estimate of the social evil in
this city is as follows:
Estimated population. :. :. %, 900
Number houses of i'll fame :. 20
Number public prostitutes. 80. 30
Number loose women. :. :. :. $50
Total number Of immoral women 500
DR.. Lanphear will be greatly as
tonished, no doubt, when he receives
Chief Bailey's report as it will show
that there is not one house of Ill fame
in the city and that the total of i'm
moral women will probably not ex-
coed one hundred. This estimate is
Chief Bailey had consulted with Pros
ecutor Jessup. Judge Converse, patrol
men and police reporters.
Chief Bailey was of the opinion that
there were not more than fifty women
of loose character in the city but after
Investigation he decided to report that
there were not more than one hun
bred. Even in the days when Rich
mond was considered one OIL the wide
open" towns in the state there was
never more than one-eighth the mum.
Der Of houses of Ill fame estimated by
DR.. Lanphear. About four or five years
ago a moral crusade was inaugurated
in this city and as a result all houses
Of i'll fame were closed. Since that
time none have been permitted to ope
rate here. Hotels of shady reputa
ton have also been suppressed. Just
a few months ago the only hotel fl
this city bearing such reputation
was raided and the proprietor was
fined
The majority Of people contend that
the moral cleansing of Richmond ha:
been Of great benefit to the citizens
Others contend that the tight lid
has had the effect of increasing the
number of immoral women on the
streets and of encouraging sexua
crimes which have been quite notice
able the past few months.
