According to Assistant District At

houses of the Tenderloin Thursday
night, three different combinations or
trusts control these place of vice. The
trials of the women arrested in the

other women were postponed to Au-

failed to appear was furnished by
Henry Bolter and Harry GOLDSMITH.

Tells of Vice Trusts.
There are three separate trusts
which control these dens of vice.
said Mr.. Smith at the close of the
w,omen's hearing. "All are below
125th street. The organization we at
tackled is the strongest and the most
profitable. 1t controls thirty-two
houses that we know Of and 1000 wom-
en-. The three trusts together have
40 1000 women. The one in the Tender
loin is known as the big Ave."
The raids we're made over the heads
of Inspector Lacey and Captain
Wakefield, of the West Seventeenth
street police station. and of Acting
Captain Ward, of the Thirtieth street
station. The "vice trusts clearing
house had a committee in charge in
sixth avenue where the women were
assigned every day from one house to
another. From this committees head
quarters orders we're issued to the
in charge of the houses.
These women were never allowed to
more than two nights in the
same house.
