POKER GAME LEADS To
ARREST Of SEVEN MEN
Police Raid Good Sized Game Saturday Night Conduct
ed in Gehr Apartments by Eberling - Judge Palmer
Assessed $3.50 Fine on Proprietor and Gave Players
Each Fine of $35 and the Costs.

A gambling joint in the Gehr block
was raided Saturday night by Chief
Inscho, Officers Nelson and Hauser
and Sheriff Ferguson. The place was
being operated by Fred Eberling in
suite 16 which is located on the cor
ner over Woodruff's garage.
Six men were apprehended. They
were taken to the police station and
released under a bond of $50 each on
their agreement to appear in police
court this morning. Eberling was re-
quired to give $500 bond. This was
of the Pastime Pool hail.
The officers have known for some
time that a poker game his bene go
ing on for money in Eberling's apart
ment They have awaited favorable
time for making the raid. This prov
ed the suspicious moment to act.
Usually a guard by the name of Ed
Hayden sits and watches for any I'M
welcome or dangerous intruder. Last
night he was out for some reason or
other and Eberling was sitting in the
outer room with his back to the en-
trance.
He did not see the officers as they
opened the door. and they walked
past him into the room where the
game was going on in full swing.
The players were absolutely off their
guard. The cards were in their hands
and the table was stacked with rubber
chips, which made it possible to play
poker without any of the usual ratti-
ing of bone chips.
The men were lined Up. the cards
and chips gathered together and
thorough search made for any other
evidence available.
Eberling moved into the Gehr
building on the 18th of last month.
He is said to have been operating
over in Shantytown all summer. Plans
q gambling joint in one of the shacks
were on foot by the police to raid
that place, but they were never able
to find conditions just right for the
attack. On the night of the last
general election, Eberling had a fight
with one of his customers who kicked
in the door while in drunken rage.
The attention called to the police by
this episode made Eberling afraid to
open up again there. He did not do
much more in the gambling line until
the removal to the Gehr block.
Judge Imposes Stiff Fines.
At hearing held this morning be-
fore Judge Palmer, the proprietor Of
the game. Eberling and the six parti
cipants, plead guilty to the charge of
gambling. Eberling was given $50
fine for conducting a public nuisance.
Besides he was assessed the costs
amounting on each charge to between
four and five dollars. The other
participants of the game were fined
S35 each and the costs amounting TO
1915 each.
Attorney Thomas represented the
defendants and the state was repre-
sented by Prosecuting Attorney
Kemp.

PEACE
MAKERS SET BACK
Soldiers Follow in Chihua-
hua in Wake of Bearers
of Olive Branch.

Chihuahua, Mexico, Dec. 5.-Mem-
bers of the peace commission return
ed TO this city and reported that
their work was greatly embarrassed
by the fact that soldiers followed at
their heels. At Guerrero, just as
they were beginning to talk with the
insurrectos, peon arrived with word
that the soldiers were on the way,
whereupon the meeting promptly
came to an end.
At Guerrero and also at San An
tonic the commissioners were told
that the main grievance is against
| the state government. rather than
against Diaz. Today kilograms were
exchanged with the capital with ref
erence to the proposal that the gov
eminent forces be halted pending an
other conference between the COM
mission and the insurgents.
Seemingly authentic reports state
that Guerrero has been taken by the
revolutionists with some loss of life.
Details are lacking.
FL Paso. Texas, Dec. st was
learned here that the peace commits
sion that left Chihuahua Friday to
treat with the insurrectionists was
acting under the authority of Gov
ernor Sanchez and not President
Diaz. The plan originated with Jose
mi
Chihuahua, who urged its adoption
by the chief executive in the interest
of peace and to prevent bloodshed.
Apprehension at Presidio.
A telegram from Maria, Texas.
last night states that apprehension
and excitement prevail at both Pre-
sidio and Candelaria, 90 miles south,
on the Texas side of the river, ow-
ing to the revolutionary disorders
reported on the Mexican side. Moth
ing definite has yet been learned of
reported fighting at Ojinaga Satur-
day night. Firing has been heard at
intervals, but so far as can be learn
ed there has been no loss of life.
The few Americans living along
the river at Presidio and Candalaria
having been standing guard to pre-
vent an invasion and there is a strong
demand that the government send
troops to their relief.
West Coast Is Tranquil.
Luis Terrazas Creel, son of En-
rique Creel. minister OF foreign af-
fairs in Mexico, visited Ell Paso today
en- route from Sonora to the capital.
Mr.. Creel stated that the insurrec-
tionary disturbances had not pene-
trated Sonora and that the entire
