Gambling Impossible to Eradicate,
Although on Decrease in Washington,
Superintendent of Police Declares

Gambling in Washington is on
the decrease, if anything" declared
Maj. Harry L. Gessford, superin-
tendent of police, last night.
Maj. Gessford claims to be one
of those men who do not believe
that gambling can be crushed in
Washington, once and for all, ac-
cording to his statement.
Il think there will always be
more or less gambling in Washing
ton and every other city for that
matter" Maj. Gessford said. "As
long as gamblers here keep doing
business, the police department will
do business, also"

Prussian Poles and Presi-

Open Hostilities.

Service, Special Cable Dispatch.(


Berlin, Sept. 6.-The Posen move
ment for autonomy in former Prus-
sian provinces of Poland, now un-
der Warsaw's control has develop
ed, according to Danzig dispatches,
into open hOstilities between troops
of the Prussian Poles and President
Pilsudskis forces.
\ detachment Of several hundred
home troops, according to Danzig
reports, seized the railroad station
and public buildings in Graudenz
on Friday morning and attempted
to expel Warsaw troops from the
city. The defenders were reinforced
later in the day by Pilsudski cavalry
and the insurgents We're overpower-
ed. The situation is reported as
tense.
Rumors are in circulation in Grau-
denz that a strong force from the
POsen reserve army is en- route to
Graudenz to drive the Pilsudski
forces from the former Prussian
territory. The Danzig report is not
yet confirmed from Warsaw, but
nothing is improbable in the report
of the attempted coup d'etat, as
Posen leaders are known to have
long been ripe for measures to ex-
tend authority in West Prussia as
well as in Posen.

W. r. BRADFORD TO ADDRESS
STATE TEACHERS ASSOCIATION

Rock Hill, Oct. 16.-W. R. Brad
ford of Fort Mill, chairman of the
WAYS and means committee of the
South Carolina legislature, has ac-
cepted an invitation to address the
State Teachers association on Fri
day evening, November 26, on the
question of school finance. This IS
one of the most important questions
the schools are facing. Mr.. Brad
ford is eminently fitted to discuss
this question in a most intelligent
way.
Interest in the meeting is growing
all over the state. D. L. Lewis.
county superintendent of Darlington,
has forwarded a check from the
county board of education paying the
dues of all the teachers of his coun-
ty. Dillon county has pledged the
same thing. 1t is thought that other
counties will follow the same plan.
The officers of the association are
planning for the greatest meeting
ever held. Early indications are
that there will be a record breaking
attendance.
