RAIDS TRAP 522
IN QUAKER CITY
Police Stations Crowded
After Squads Descend
on 104 Houses.
ALL-NIGHT SESSION
OF COURT IS HELD
Many Fined or Imprisoned,
While Large Number Must
Stand Trial.

Philadelphia. July l6.-A raid on
104 houses which netted 522 prisoners
stunned the Tenderloin Saturday
night. Among the men and women
gathered in the net were some OF the
most desperate characters in the
country and many persons apparently
of respectable families.
Hearings began before Magistrate
Pennock AT midnight Saturday, and
continued without cessation until late
this afternoon Only twenty women
were discharged.
Professional bondsmen, thieves,
pickpockets and criminals OF all sorts
crowded the police stations where the
hearings were held. while lawyers
fought for the release Of clients and
for the most part lost their cases.
The very bottom Of the underworld
fell out. From IL o'ciock Saturday
night, when the raids began, until late
this afternoon every known rule in
the Tenderloin districts was turned
topsy-turvy There was not branch
of forbidden business that was not
shocked into temporary obedience to
the law.
Saturday night 300 policemen, in
squads VI ltH' tdNH uuN'i "a ND'h
mander, assembled at City Hall.
About $50 warrants were issued deslg-
mating the houses TO be raided, and
each squad received an allotment. At
II sharp the squads moved, and soon
the excitement began.
All the territory between Seventh
and Broad Streets, Broad and South
streets. was in a turmoil. Patrol
wagons changed and skidded about,
policemen hammered on doors and
burst their way into houses, and ex-
cited men and women ran about the
streets, not knowing what was going
to happen next or where.
SO many wagonloads Of men and
women were taken to the various po-
lice stations that all the stations were
soon full Then they began placing
the unwilling guests upstairs in the
policemen's quarters until crowded.
Outside the station houses great
crowds gathered. These crowds re-
mained all night and to-day, and were
there as evening fell. watching the
prison vans cart women and men
away.
Sentences varied from ten to thirty
days up the river" and fines from
$40 and costs up. Many were held
in bail for court.
