diets and venders following the big
hotel invasion, developments were un-
usual. New evidence of sensational
escapes was found.
Tastily furnished opium places were
entered after doors had been kicked
from their hinges by the raiders. Evi-
dences Of opium smoking and the gen.
eral use of narcotics were found where
they had been left by the keepers and
habitues of the places in their hurried
departure. Furniture was left behind
with no owners appearing, as were suit
cases and other personal belongings.
One big opium resort with four
double hunks, meaning accommodations
for sixteen smokers, was found intact
save for the opium layouts, which had
been hastily carried away or effective
ly hidden. In this one place Director
Oyler says sixteen smokers, eleven of
them women, had been indulging in
poppy dreams as late as last Saturday
morning.
None of the furniture had been dis
arranged. The hunks were comfort
ably upholstered. Heavy locks still
mutely testified to the privacy main
tanned at the place. A trap door six by
eight inches pl ploved where the drugs
and drug utensils had been cached. In
this aperture between the floors under
the carefully concealed trap one empty
opium toy and box still containing
opium ashes had been overlooked by
the fugltives in their hurried
departure.
