QAMBLERS'RtJLE-

Fntrraflr 8ui4 Mem|»kia by (in TtarMtf ftwr

Special correspomlenoe from Memphis to the Chicago Tribone says Time and tm^in in Southern cities has the better element been forced to rise and assert itself against gambling and Its attendant crime and Jawtemiteaft. The desire of well meaning citizens to improve the morals of municipal government short lived. Besting aecura in the knowledge that that they could never be disiodpd, the mminal claaae* dictated eveiyuiing to the glory of gambling-

As atypical Southern city Memphis famiahea a striking example of criminal domination. Gamblers name the candidal for city and county offices, and they are elected. Their buaisesao! robbery is legitimized by the payment into the tress* ory of eo much money every month for the support of the local government They themselves consider tliat their business is as legal as that of the dry goods merchant, for they j*ay their taxea. It ia an every night occurrence to see policetnen in foil uniform sittiug around a gamingtable.

The impressionswhich a Northern man receives in a Southern city are strange flrd aatonbhing. Some months ago a number of bosineee men met in Memphis. They began to take a practical view of mnnicinal affaire. They were not gamblers, but plain, nnaffinming business men who worked in their offices buying and selling the products of the world. They quietly reviewed the history of their city. They found that since the ending of the civil war the half hundred gambling houses had never closed their doors. In fact, the houses bad no keys to them. These practical business men had the welfare of the city at heart, and they were suddenly brought to realize that theirs was a depiora ble city government. In reciting the history of the past the merchants came across the incident when Memphis repudiated a debt of several millions of dollars and dropped the name of a city. It became a taxing district without form and void. With the new start the place had again plunged into debt until the millions were again piling tip to such an extent that another state of bankruptcy must speedily ensue. These men were naturally proud and feit tlie humiliation of perpetual poverty and failure in government. They paia their heavy taxes, but that was all they did for the public good, for the gamblers did the rest.

The truth came upon these merchants that the city was drifting toward a state of chaos, and they decided to avert another bankruptcy. They would dislodge the gambling element from power, no matter what the cost. As a result of this meeting it was decided to found two newspapers immediHtely" which should advocate political reform to save the city from rain and disgrace. It was apparent that as long as the gamblers ruled the city's destiny there was no hope. Through the medium of these two newsiwipers, one of which was to be published in the morning and the other in the evening, the people were to be told of the exact condition of local politics,

The reformers were but as a hand ftil compared with the hosts of gamblers and their friends. Every office in the city and county wai held by a sworn friend of the gamblers.

The picture is not overdrawn, and its counterpart may be seen in nearly every Southern city. The gamblers did not hoid the reins by au Iterance, as is the case in many Northern cities, but they actually commanded the situation and they knew it,

It will be conceded that the motive of these Memphis merchants was noble and praiseworthy, but what was the result of their efforts to purge Democracy of its lawlessness and crimef Bid they succeed? As a matter of course these reform newspapers made terrible discoveries in the local ^administration. It was the first time in half a century that the truth had been told, but their efforts were unsuccessful.

CALLED OFF BY COUCH.

An Officer Prevented from Doing IIla lnty fey a Superior. THE NEWS to-day adds another chapter to .the gambling disclosures. It was learned, upon good authority, that Officer Stoecker located a gambling game and would have made arrests, or, at least, demonstrated whether or not his suspicions were correct, bad it not been for the interference of Sergeant Couch, who has charge of the night force. The story as received by

TUB NEWS

is stronger than

that told by Officer Stoecker, yet the latter is used. The Officer was called upon for an explanation. He said in substance to a

NEWS

representative:

"You have the story somewhat mixed. I though I had located a game. I was not thrown out of the building, a* you have heard. I was not told by Couch that I Bhould let^gambling go. I saw a light in the third story of a Main street building. I was convinced that gambling was going on. One officer cannot make such a raid very well without assistance. I telephoned police headquarters for' the sergeant but he was not there. Afterwards I met him on the street and told him the circumstances. He and I went to the building and ascended the stairs, I was climbing tlie stairs to the thin! floor. The sergeant was below on the second floor. The proprietor came oat and wanted to know what we, were doing. I did not hear all that was said, but the sergeant ordered me to come down, and, he being my superior officer, I obeyed instructions. The proprietor said there was a game of ''hearts" above. Tbo sergeant ana I then left the building." "Then no effort was made by Sergeant Couch to ascertain whether or not gambling was going on?"

seemed satisfied with the statement made him by the proprietor." "What evidence had you that gambling was going on?" "I neard the chips rattling, and could see the light It was a queer game of 'hearts* that required the use of chips." "You would have entered the room, would you, had it not been for, Couch's interference?" "I would have found out whether or not gambling was going on."

Those Haymaking Tramp*. The twenty-four members of Tammany Tribe No. 39 aad lonia Tribe No. 104, who went to Brazil last night to assist in instituting a Haymakers' degree in that dty, returned at an early hour this inorninjg well pleased with their trip and the work they had accomplished.

Rain, prevented the public demonstration which had been arranged but ftt the Hendeifctm lioose the Tem^Hsute people were given a royal welcome. A "hay loft" was built and eighteen "tramps" were permitted to come within its shelter. Frank Fedderaoc, Chas. iiilmore, Ed.

FEARS HE WILL POISON HER. A Colored Woman Sots for Divorce— The Complaint.

The readers of this paper will recall tiie fact that MaryE. Allen, colored, brought about her husband's arrest this week, charging him with attempting to administer a poisonous drug to her in place of medicine. It will also be remembered that the case came to trial in Wildy'sjcourt yesterday, and that a chem ical analysis of the contents of the botde having developed that there was no poison in it, the action was dismissed.

The-same woman, by her attorney, Frank Kelly, filed a suit for divorce in the Circuit court this morning against Charles R. Allen, colored. The plaintiff alleges that for two years the defendant has failed to make suitable provision for her and that she fears to live with him. She alleges further that he has attempted to kill her by putting poison into her medicine and by throwing a poisonous compound on her clothing.

Cowboy* Une L«rta(i-On« of Killed. MOORB STATION,Tex.,June12.—A novel duel was fought near hero yesterday between two Mexican cowboys named Jose Carrasco and Manuel Bosco. The two quarreled over the possession of a cow, and as neither had a gun they drew their only weapons—lariats. Then began one of the most terrific bloodless battles on record. The two dashed along ou their mustangs side by side. They swung their hissing lassoes in vain at first, but Bosco chanced to glance aside for one fatal moment and was doomed. Carrasco'scoil encircled his neck, and Carrasco stopped his horse so suddenly and turned back so quickly that Boeco'a neck was broken. The infuriated Carrasco dragged his dead enemy for a mile, then coolly unloosened tho ropo and rode away.

will

furnish bulletins of the base ball games, at the park, by special wire in a rather novel manner. When

THK

Nzws put its

wire into the ball park it did so by permission of the park management No sooner had this been accomplished than the managers of the ball club set about to arrange for a special wire into all of the InterState League parks. This was brought about and last week the park directors signed a contract giving tho Western Union Telegraph Company an exclusive right to run its wires into the park. Tbie, of course, put an end to THE NEWS' right and its wires were consequently of no further use. They were taken out this morning and a pole was placed on the outside of the fence just south of the grand stand. Ou the top of this pole a small platform watt built just large enough for one man. To this pole the wires were run and an instrument was placed thereon.

Upon this platform at the top of the pole and commanding a view of the whole park

Nsws operator will sit

during the games, and as fast as plays are made on the diamond a report will lie telegraphed to

THE NSWS

of lice, where

another operator will receive the report and mako bulletins for TUB NRWS' bulletin board at the corner of Fifth and Main streets. The bulletins will be posted just the same as if the report were sent from the grand stand, and will be just ns accurate, as the operator will be within hearing of tlie umpire's decisions and will have just as good a view of the game as if he were in the grand stand. This will be somewhat of a novelty for tho spectators at tlie park and it will bo worth the price of admission to see THK Nsws operator perched upon that polo busily sending bulletins of the gamo to this office. 'Imagine a telegraph operator on the top of a pole thirty-five feet high—higher than your house.

Tn* Nxws gets nothing whatever out of its base ban bulletins and simply furnishes them for the sake of giving tho news to tlie public. Tits

Major M. Smock, the energetic little deputy sheriff, is out as a candidate for Recorder on tho Democratic ticket. "Maj" was bom and raised la Harrison township and has a large following of friends. Four years ago while working with a thrashing machine ho had one of hiis arms torn off at the shoulder joint and to that extent has been crippled. Should tho Democratic nominating convention select him as its candidate and his election follow, he will undoubtedly fulfill the duties of his office ia an acceptable mantier.
