Little Effect at Cathedral.

The work on the cathedral will not
be very much affected, it was said, at
the construction headquarters there.
Five or six marblesetters, a few stone
masons and tile-setters, whose union
is affiliated with the bricklayers, are
out but, according to those handling
the construction for the Fuller Co. at
the cathe Jral, there Is plenty of work
to be doAe on the building in other
lines.~send the progress of its erection
will not be affected materially.
On the Hecht Co. job there are about
80 bricklayers out. This means de-
lay of some importance. At the
Georgetown University there is, ac-
cording to persons on the job there, d
serious delay: tilesetting will not go
on. and altogether about so men will
be out.
At the headquarters of the interna-
tional union officials were in confer
ence" A similar situation was de-
clared to exist at the Fuller Co. s
headquarters. Both offices announced
that they did not know when their
officials would get through confer
ring

BRICKLAYERS TIE Up
BUILDING PROJECTS
80 Men Called Off Jobs Here
in Controversy With
PIastererS' Union.

Disputes in the building trades that
have cropped up in Washington
periodically since the Spring again
threaten to hold up a number of large
structures that are now being erected
by the George A. Fuller Co. All
bricklayers on Fuller Co. jobs here
and in other cities have been called
off as result OF the renewal OF the
jurisdicational controversy between
the Bricklayers' international Union
and the Operative Plasterers' Union.
There are about 30 men idle here,
and the jobs affected at present are
the Hecht Co.'S new building the
Cathedral and new dormitories at
Georgetown University. If the strike
continues it will also affect the new
additions to Woodward & Lothrop's 5
store on Tenth and Eleventh
streets.

Severe Penalty Provided.

The specific charge OF violating the
handbook and betting provisions OF
section 500 of the District code was
lodged against Loewe. There are four
other sections of the code on which Mr..
Given believes the prosecution may
be based-sections S63. S64. S65 and
S66. All relate to lotteries. and were
originally placed on the statutes to
combat the old policy lotteries. These
sections provide severe penalties
ranging from one to five years i'm
priSonlnent, a $500 fine, or both
Commissioner Fenning pointed out
that the renewed campaign which he
proposes to launch against the pool
operators will have to be conducted
Jointly between the Police Department
and the district attorneys office. The
close cooperation OF the district at
tornsy's office, he said. is vital if the
drive is to be successful. 1t is like
ly that he will urge Maj. Peyton Cor.
don, or one of his assistants. to attend
the conference this afternoon with In
spector Evans. at which plans will
be made for the war on the ball pools.

Declares Gamblers BLEED"
GuIIibIe of $4,000 Weekly
in Lottery.
ALLEGED AGENT QUIZZED
TO FIND "HIGHER-UPS"
Loewe, Taken Saturday Night,
Believed Small Figure in
Gigantic Ring.

Aroused over the continued and ap-
parent defiant activities of the pro
moters of the organized base ball
pools. Commissioner Frederick A. Fen
ming today planned a vigorous cam
paign to clean Washington of the lot
terry operators as well as their nu-
merous agents.
The Police Departments drive
against the pools, extending over
period of more than a month. has re-
suited in only one arrest. An agent
and not Il promoter was caught i'll this
net. Commissioner Fenning wants to
round up the master minds behind
this pretentious lottery, who are bleed
ing about $40, 900 weekly from gullible
Washingtonians.
Just what method Commissioners
Fenning proposes to use in trapping
the pool promoters has not been def
nitely determined. He will hold a
conference this afternoon with InSDec-
tor Charles A Evans, acting major
and superintendent of police. to dis
cuss these details.
Reports OF the widespread activities
of the new lottery coming into his
office, Commissioner Fenning ex-
planned, warrants the serious and i'm
mediate attention of the Police De-
partment. 1t is an evil, he said,
which should be stopped

Police Probe Ordered.

In the meantime. Detective James
+. Lowry of the eighth precinct, who
is credited with the first arrest of a
member OF the gang of pool operators.
is continuing his investigation, con-
fident that he will find the lair of the
promoters. A constant shift in the
base of operations of the promoters
ever since The Stars exposure of the
pools. has kept the police on a never
ending trail.

whom Detective Lowry arrested last
week when he is alleged to have sold
the officer two of the lottery tickets at
Fourteenth and L streets. is the only
person connected with the gigantic
ring of promoters. agents and sub
agents who has been caught Ac-
cording to the police Loewe is only
an agent and efforts to learn the
identity of the higher ups" from him
proved futile.
Loewe is now enjoying his freedom
under $1,000 bond, and Assistant
District Attorney Ralph Given has not
planned to prosecute his case until he
returns from vacation. There seems
10 be some uncertainty in Mr.. Givens
mind as to the statute in the District
code on which to base the prosecution.

Improving on
History

! just finished hearing a Politician,
one of the Washington Boys, talk
on Abraham Lincoln. The only
thing ! could picture in common
between him and Lincoln was that
they had both been in Washington.
When a Politician amt talking
about himself he is talking about
Lincoln. Lincoln has had more
Public men speak of his good
qualities, and fewer copy any of
diem, than any man America ever
produced. His famous address was
! only about two hundred words
long. No Politician has ever been
able to even copy his briefness.
In fact that is the last one of his
qualities that they would try to
copy, Lincoln said more in those
200 words than has been said in
the entire City of Washington in
the last 10 years, and here is a
quality that no historian or speaker
has ever brought out before. AT
the completion Of the Gettysburg
speech, he wisely refused one Of
Grants Cigars, and borrowed a
sack Of Bull" Durham from an
Elk Southern private, rolled his
own, got on his Mule and went
back to Washington.
