Portion of Chicago’s City Hall Or- dered’ Abandoned, R Chicago, May 8.—Building Commis- sloner Bartzen has ordered the aban- donment of (he northeast wing of the city hall. He said that it is in abso- lute danger and may fall at any time. Several months ago the county build- ing, which adjoined the city hall on the east, was torn down to permit of the erection. of ‘a new building. Since it was deprived of this support the city hall, which was really the west half of the same building, has been sink- ing, the walls have been cracking and Jjoists have been slipping. The removals caused great incon- venience, as the city hall was over- crowded and in the present condition of the municipal finances there is no money with which to rent other offices, High License Closes Salocns.

All the gamblers heeded the warning and it was not necessary for the police to use harsher methods. 1n all something like fourteen places whare gambling has been carried on were visited and warned. According to Mayor Carter, |gambling has seen its last day in this city while he is mayor. He declined to give a lengthy inter- view on the subject when ap- proached by the Pioneer, but gave the following statement: “You may quote me as saying that I have decided to close up gambling in Bemidji and to close it for good. Further than this I have nothing to say.” Gambling has flourished in this city ever since its beginning, and the mayor’s action will come as a surprise to the majority of the people who had no inkling that any move of this kind was contemplated. It has been the custom to allow gambling, al- <hough it is ferbidden by a city ordinance, and toimpose a fine, monthly, or oftener, varying f om $10 to $30.
