200 GAMBLERS in PANIC
AS POLICE RAID POOLROOM

NEW YORK, April 9.-Two hundred
poolroom players were nearly suffo-
Gated In a house on City Hall place by
the efforts of the proprietors to destroy
racing sheets and other evidence of
play when the place was raided by the
police late yesterday afternoon.
When the proprietors heard the sound
of axes at the doors they threw all
papers into a big sheet-iron can, kept
ready for emergency, poured kerosene
over the heap and threw a lighted
match atop. The bonfire, partly hid
den from the players by a low wooden
partition, blazed f1ercely, emitting vol
umes of suffocating smoke
Terrified at the thought of being
trapped in fire. the crowd fought and
hammered at the door, while plain
clothesmen among them to get evidence
tried in vain to restore order by dis
play of their revolvers. A rush of
fresh air from the street, when the
door was broken down and the sight OF
the police uniform quieted the panic.
Six men said to be the proprietors
and employees were arrested.

tout.
Under the new arrangement, the
State board OF health will furnish to
any physician for the use OF persons
suffering from diphtheria such anti
toxin as he may require, provided he
becomes responsible for the purchase
price. There is no restriction as to
whom the medicine may be sold,
therefore it is available on short no
tice. The State department, in a bull
letin Just issued, advises that the city
and county boards of health purchase
stock OF antitoxin 90 be kept on
hand so that there may be no delay
when it is needed The department
offers TO credit the boards for any
amount OF antitoxin ordered and not
used before the limit OF the sO-cailed
guarantee date.
This action of the State health de-
partment will be blessing to fami-
lies having to buy antitoxin, and
should go a long way toward wiping
out diphtheria in Virginia.
