GAMBLING CAMPAIGN
Fifty Indictments Against Hand
book Makers.

Chicago, June Softly indict'
ments against nineteen handbook
makers was the first notice Of AS.
sistant Chief of Police Schuettler's
renewed campaign against all forms
of gambling in Chicago.
Schuettler furnished the evidence
upon which the race horse gamblers
were indicted.
Bets on the Kentucky derby at
Churchill down on May 10 formed
most of the testimony furnished by
the assistant chief. Detectives were
placed in the haunts of the hand
book gamblers and a detective was
sent to Louisville to see the race. In
former trials the state has had diff
Guilty in proving that a race on which
bets were made here was actually
run.
The bookmakers had no warning
and were hauled from cigar stores,
