Served on Three

Detective Sergeants Hickson and
Demorest won't raiding yesterday after
noon. They went alone and light
hearted, because there was only one
entrance to the suspected pooroom on
Cedar Street. near West. A buzzer
sounded remotely, however, as they en-
tered the building and, when they
reached the dool on the second floor, it
was locked.
Sounds Of unrcstrained excitement
came from within, rising to high
pitch IS the two policemen began to
shatter the panels with lireaxes. When
they got inside they saw the cause of
the commotion. Most of about 100 men
had squeezed out OF the two windows
20 the roof OF an extension in the brief
interval that was allowed them. The
estimate Of the number was based upon
ac pile of overcoats that no one
claimed.
The detectives served subpnnas upon
three men who said they were Johr
Murtha and Frank Otis, of Rockaway
Beach. and John McCluskey, of the
Hotel Flanders The subpnnas are re-
turnable on Monday and call upon the

amazed at this; there was no gambling

Still suspicious. the detectives an
swered several calls that came in upoI
the seven telephones in the place. One
they said. was the voice of a woman
who demanded the winner in the fourtl
race at Havana. Hickson obliglngly
told her that it was Ambrose and wa'
rewarded with a veritable crow of de
