DRAW LINE ABOUT
CLUB POOL ROOMS
Game Played at All Hours
Attracts Attention of Cor
poration Counsel.

Poolrooms conducted for "public use
or profit" although in the name Of a
club, must be closed on Sundays. and
after midnight. according to the Cor
poration Counsel.
The existence OF a number of So
called clubs" in which the game is
played at all hours. has led Major syI-
vester TO ask for a construction Of the
law relating to poolrooms, for the guid-
ance of the police
within the past two years" said
Major Sylvester. persons have incor-
porated so-called clubs where playing
may be INDUCED in by members who
become such upon the payment Of a
small fee. Once admitted, they feel
immune from the inspection Of the po-
lice and the authorities. and instances
of betting on games have come to the
knowledge of the police. BY this priv
ilege the proprietors avoid the license
cost which must be paid by the pro-
prietor of the open poolroom. who suf-
fers an injuctice, and the District a
loss of revenue. There should be a
law against club poolrooms, and If such
cannot be obtained. the annual license
on pool tables in such rooms should
be at least SOS table In addition, the
police should be authorized 10 make
inspections at any and ali times"
The Act of Congress, which deals
with poolrooms. contains no reference
to clubs as such,' says the Corporation
Counsel. The mere existence Of an
incorporated club does not determine
whether there is a public use Of
poolroom. This is a matter of fact
The club may or may not be a bona
hde club, or II may be a bona fide cor
poration. which exercises its franchise
either for public use or for a restricted
use-but for proht-and it is. therefore.

Cause of Death.
The death Of Hartman was the re-

be stretched 10 cover almost any dis

on the cause of the hnanciers death.
1t is declared IN Arden today that in
his viii. f. II. Hartman leaves 800
acres OF his vast estate there to the
State of New Y FORK as a State park, and
that Miss Mary Hartman. who will

under the terms of the financier's VIII.
Hartman also expressed his desire
that the work on Arden house shall
