The efforts of the track gamblers to re- open Ingleside racecourse and to cstab- lish bookmaking and poolselling and their | menace involved | tessfonal men, train of evils in this city have arousel people of all classes to determined protest and opposition. The extraordinary posi- tion taken by Mayor Phelan in open, earnest advocacy of the scheme because he belleves that a set of gamblers, now prevented from operating, should have full sway for thirty days, has startled the | community as it has been by no other official act of the Mayor. The disgraceful project and the serious in the indorsement of Mayor Phelan were topics o1 absorbinx discussion yesterday by business and pro- mercnants and ministers | and every other reputable class of citi- | zens. | consplirators present their It was determined to take instant agtion to prevent the proposed outraga and it is satisfactéry at least that if the measure (o- | morrow morning it wil not be adopted | upon their rights. without a protest which will show. that the decent people of this city will not submit without a struggle to this attack 2 In every part of San Francisco to-day ministers of the Gospel holding widely different shades of religious opinion, wor- shiping under many different forms and in many different sanctuaries, will sup- plement their regular services with ap- peals to their copgregations for the sake of their homes and their familles and for the community in which they live not to permit this threatened renewal of a crim- inal traffic and the revival of a dread in- fluence in San Francisco. Citizens to Protest in Mass Meeting. These congregations in the agregate will | number thousands of the reputable people of this city, men and women who have something at stake more sacred than that which interests Mayor Phelan—the giving to a set of gamblers the shameful privi- lege of picking the pockets of San Fran- | ciscans for thirty days every year. These congregations represent all that is best in the life of this city, its substantial com- merce, its commerclal success, the. hon- | esty of its young men, the honor of its and sizes.

One of the most significant of these meetings will be held to-night at the First Methodist Episcopal Church on Powell street, near Washington. The regular | Sunday evening service of prayer will be | abandoned and at 7:30 o'clock the congre- | gation, under the leadership of their pas- tor, Rev. Dr. Frank K. Baker, will assem- The principal interest of the realty buy- | ers continues to center in business prop- erties, although there are many inquiries for eligible lots upon which to erect flats. The builders of flats are numerous- |1y in evidence, as may easily be ascer | tained by reading the builders’ contracts going on record. At the same time there is a fair business in residence properties. The demand for room on Market street is illustrated by the fact that a large part of the space in the nine-story office and store building to be erected by James L. Flood on the old Baldwin Hotel site has already been rented before any start has been made to build. Albert Pissis will be the architect for Mr. Flood.

Brown has contracted for a two-story CITIZENS WILL ASSEMBLE TO DENOUNCE THE SCHEME TO REVIVE TRACK GAMBLING Plan of Mayor Phelan and His Hidden Proteges to Give Us ‘Thirty Days a Year of Dissipation and Thieves Arouses Widespread Indignation ble In a way which only an extraordinary emergency could suggest. The pastor and his congregation will assemble in mass meeting to denounce the reopening of Ingleside racetrack and to petition the Board of Supervisors by resolution not to revive the curse of bookmaking and pool- selling In this city simply to glve to a set of thieves the right to pick our pockets and make innocent youth pay for the crimes of the rascals we will be forced to entertain. The First Methodist Church is one of the most Influential in the city | and the public s invited to attend its mass meeting this evening. Pickpockets as Civilizers. The position assumed by Mayor Phelan in this serious aflair seems to be almost inexplicable, and it has occasioned the most widespread comment. In an inter- view yesterday morning in The Cali he made the extraordinary assertion that he wished to have Ingleside reopened for a period of thirty days every year—not be- cause he wished to encourage a legitimate sport, because he believes he would not, nor because he wishes to see the people of San Francisco enjoy a healthful recrea- tion, but because he wishes to bhave the people of San Francisco sunk in moral drunkenness, in dissipation, for thirty days, while a set of thieves whom he would set loose upon unsuspecting vic- tims picked their poclets under license of law. So extraordinary is this assertion of Mayor Phelan that it might be reasonable to suppose by his supporters that in any newspaper he had been misquoted, but upon that question he has himself left no doubt. He gave another inter- view yesterday to still another newspaper, an_evening sheet, which has frequently enjoyed his patronage, and in this inter- view he goes even further in extravagance of support to Ingleside than he did in The Call. In this second interview to another paper Mayor Phelan says that he believes the people of San krancisco snvuia ve ai- lowed thirty days of dissipation, in which they may relax their rules of life and in- dulge in gayety. And Mayor Phelan says, in this second interview, that the losses which the public incur at the racetrack is part of the price which the public pays for the sport. San Francisco, it would seem, has had enough of this sort of gayety and sport. It has pald more than money for the lux- ury of Ingleside and its gamblers. It has paid a dreadful price in honor and life, and Mayor Phelan's suggestion that we should reopen Ingleside simply for an op- portunity to dissipate and to license what he calls pickpockets to prey upon us is not likely to be accepted by the people of San Francisco. Hidden Advocates of the Scheme. Yet it is the only reasen Mayor Phelan gives for his urging that Ingleside be re- sold for.the Reinsteln heirs a house and lot on the north line of Eddy street, 30 feet west from Leavenworth, for $14,250. The lot Is 81:6x137:6. They have also leased the premises at 1122 and 1124 Market street and 19 Turk street for Jane Pomeroy to Jacob Gordon for five years for $36,000.

Mr. McCreery partly confirmed th story yesterday that a large hotel woul be put up. “It is very likely,” he said, “that .Market street will have a greaf structure, but it will not necessarily he on my land. There are wealthy men In the city who_believe (hat a great hotel out near the Postoffice would pay.

And he declares that the succes- sors of Corrigan, Ullman and the gam- blers who ruined Ingleside as a resort of high class sport are sharpers who have the same methods, the same schemes, the same wretched, criminal devices of those Who preceded them and were driven from this community. Mayor Phelan himself calls them pickpockets and their game u dissipating luxury for which the people of San Francisco must pay dearly. Even if the advocates of a revival of track gambling were to forget themselves and plead that their criminal game can be made profitable without robbing the public, a few facts, plainly stated, would destroy their plea. Track gambling as practiced here gives ample proof that it cannot be induiged except at a terrible cost to the community in which it is per- mitted. Vultures Feeding on the Public. The books of the racing association show that 1750 horses are in training here. It requires §2 a day for every horse kept In training, which means that for this item alone $3300 a day must be paid. It is not paid by the horsemen, for they must have a profitable business or leave It. It is not paid by the bookmakers, for no one ever accused them of philanthropy. It is not gald by "the association, as it is not ingthe business of maintaining charity Stables. The money is paid by the pub- lic, which gambles and must support tha game it plays before a dollar comes back to it. But $3500 a day for training horses is not the only item which the public must pay before it wins. The bookmakers themselves must be cared for by the very peeple they rob. On an average twenty bookmakers “cut in.” or offer wagers, every day. For this privilege each bookmaker pays every day to the association $120, or for them all a total of $2400. To this must be added an expense of 350 every day for each book- maker for clerical expense, making $1000 more, or a total of $3400. The bookmakers must obtain this money from some source or go out of business; they cannot gamble and lose, for few of them go to jail. 'They cannot get the money from the horse owners, for they have their own tremendous expenses. The assocjation certainly will not pay it and there is but one other source—the public, which, on an average, pays the book- makers $3400 a day for the privilege of pgambling. There is little wonder that Mayor Phelan calls his proteges pick- pockets. But still the terrifying cost of a race course to a community in which it exists has not all been told. e racing asso- ciation must give purses. One of them gave in one day not long since $2620. The association does not pay it, but somebody does, and the public can guess who. When the startling fact is taken into considera- tion that racing has been permitted for 150 days every vear in this city, the enormous cost to the city in money may be estimated. And Mayor Phelan is mis- taken when he savs that it would simply be pocket-picking to germ\l the game for thirty days. It would be a gigantic high- way robbery protected by municipal criminat indulgence. ® | Mitchell, lot on W line of Utah street, 35 N | of Twenty-fifth (Yolo), N 25 by W 100; $10. | C. A.
