THE TEKRE HAUTE EXPRESS, TUESDAY MORNING, DECEMBER 10, 1889.
THE CHICAGO ABDIT0R1I
[CONTINUED FROM FIRST PAGE.] when they at last got into the carriages. The escort, consisting of the First and Second regiments, national guards, the veteran organizations and civic bodies, was drawn up on Jackson street and when the presidental party passed, received it with present arms. When the carriages had gained the head of the line each organization fell in behind and the march down Michigan avenue was taken to the residence of Mr. Peck, where the president will stop during his stay in Chicago. All along the route the distinguished party was received with cheers from the throngs of people massed on| either side of the streetF. Everywhere could he seen the red, white and blue of the stars and stripes, all the public buildiDgs and many of the private residences being beautifully decorated.
Later in the day the president visited the auditorium building. While he was being shown through the great auditorium room his presence was discovered by the opera people who were engaged in rehearsal. The rehearsal was at once stopped and the orchestra struck up with the "Star Spangled Banner."
After leaving the auditorium building the president was conducted to the board of trade, where he received an ovation from the assembled bulls and bears.
A GAMBLING HOUSE RAIDED.
The Police, Moved by Some Strange Parpose, lake Action. The police raided the keno gome in in the building where Joe Greggs' saloon is located, on south Third street, at 10 o'clock last night, and carried away Joe Greggs, Steve .Wileman, Ed Wileman, John Henry and John Boyd prisoners. "John Henry" is an alias for Dan Used. The keno outfit was captured and taken to police headquarters. It consisted of the goose, pegging board, ball board, duplicate board, 90.balls, 200 carde, box of pegs and box of cnips. Gregge, or some one connected with the house, bad been warned two weeks ago that the house would be "pulled" unless the keno game should stop. The larger part of the police force had been stationed around, but the men who were to guard the rear entrance did not arrive on time. The presence of some policemen in the front/! part aroused suspicion. The "look-out' gave the alarm and the majority of the crowd got away. The officers who made the raid were Stout-, Murphy, Voit, Morgan. Rogerp, Trierweiler, Beattie, Trail. Reisman and Recuglan. The men who were arrested were taken to jail, gave bond and were released. Joe Greggs was 'charged with keeping a gaming houee and the others with visiting a gaming house. The lookout who gavo the alarm, not only saved many patrons of the gambling shop from being arrested, but saved those who were arrested from the charge of gaming, because they were thus given time to stop the game.
There has been considerable scheming going on among the police and the gambling element during the psst week and recrimination seems to be the order of the day. It was said in behalf of the keno game that it had been promised immunity, but that for some reason the word was not given all along tht line of police heads. It is a well known fact that the police do not interfere with the public gambling houses because they were virtually ordered not to do so by the police board some months ago. There are many reasons given for the raid of last night, and the closing of one or two Muin street games temporarily, but the secrets of the police ring are almost past finding out. One thing is sure: The raid was not made in the interest of law and order. Any claim that it was would be preposterous,'considering the way public gambling has been and is protected by the police.
SULLIVAN AND JACKSON.
A Meeting Between tlio I*ij Fellows Set for February. NEW YORK, December 9.—The Sun's Buffalo, N. Y., special says: Arrangements are being made here for an event which will be conspicuous in pugilistic circles, if present plans are carried out The Erie county athletic club, which was organized here last week, has de cided to ofl'er a purse of §30,000 for a glove contest between John L.
