AS a result of the work in the dis
trict court this morning nine immoral
houses in the district known as the
'hollow" have been closed for a year.
The first case that demanded the at.
tention of the court this morning was
that of the state of North Dakota, ex
rel. Arthur w. Fowler. states attorney,
against Malvina Massey and Minnie
Stevenson. Miss Stevenson testified
that there were girls kept at her house,
to whom she rented rooms.
When 1t came to the question of
beer she stated that she had never had
any beer in the house and furthermore
had never sold any. However, the
detectives that had visited the house
for the state, along last spring, said
that they had purchased beer at her
house and had drank it on the prem
ises
1t was on the strength of the testi-
mony of the detectives that Mr.. Crum
stated that he believed that they had
come into the court and committed
perjury. when they testified that they
had secured intoxicants at the house
of the defendant.
IlS SEGblAu GdbG VI LtlB Wds
against Malvina Massey, who said that
she did not run house of prostitu-
ton, but a rooming house. She stated
that she rented rooms out to girls, and
sometimes TO fellows.
So far as Mrs. Massey's knowledge
went, she had never had any beer in
her house, but she did remember of
the deputy sheriff finding beer there.
Detectives testified to the fact that
they bought beer at the Massey house,
but the defendant and her witnesses
denied all knowledge Of the same, and
said that they had never seen the de-
tectiyes.
The detectives made fine witnesses
for the state, as they were accurate In
all their testimony. One of them was
even accurate as to the very minutes
of the designated days that he visited
the houses in the hollow.
The court ordered the houses closed
for one year from today, as they were
nuisance and the nuisance was to be
abated He also ordered that the de-
PENDANTS pay the costs Of the suit
which win mean that 5000 more will
be turned into the Cass county treas
ury.
Yesterday afternoon the case of the
state against Jip Moore was heard, and
as a result her house will be closed
for year. She will also have to pay
attorneys fees as did the other keep
ers of the immoral houses.
The last case this morning closed the
cases that have been in the court for
some time against the keepers OF I'm
moral houses in the hollow. States
| Attorney Fowler has directed the suits
unrelentingly and has secured convic-
| lions In all cases.
These cases have all been brought
up as a result Of raids made last July
| The last few cases that have been
heard have been contested by the de-
| PENDANTS, but In the first ones, the at
torneys for the defendants withdrew
their answers.
