F > VOWEN UNIER oP { t ? oe a. CAMBLING SPELL. Thirty of the Fair Sex Who Have Given Testimony to Jerome Caught in Bucket Shop in St. James Building. COULD NOT KEEP AWAY. Mary «. Stummell, Who Conducted the Business, Had Been Warned to Close it, but She Found Her Patrons Anxious to Speculate. An example of the hold that specul- tion gains upon women when they once fall under ite spell was furnished in ,Centre Street Court to-day when Mrs, Mary G. Gtrummell, of No. 19 East Eighty-first street; Arthur Barry, of No. 279 Widert street, Brooklyn; Rudolp® Bertram, of No. 163 Hast Dighty-elghth atreet, and Etwant Kern, of No, 132 West Ninety-ninth street, were ar- raigned on a charge of conducting a bucket shop for women in the St. James building at Twenty-sixth street and Broadway. The place was raided yes- terday. It developed in the examination that most of the testimony against Mrs. Strummell and the men had been fur- nished by the women customers of the place, Almost e month ago about thirty of them were mibpoenaed to appear at the> Distriot-Attorney'a office. They Were examined by Assistant District- Attorney Kressell, and almost without exception, they admitted that the place was a bucket shop. All Speculating Again. Now comes what shows that women will speculate, when they get started, even though they know they have no chance to win. In the crowd of sixty women In the place when it was raided yesterday were the thirty women who had given testimony concerning the character of the game to the District Attorney last December. A majority of the customers were el- ‘derly women. All of them were well Aressed. Detective McConville, who worked up the case, says that in the many visits he paid to the concern he| found the same women there time after time, They got to know him by name; they knew that he was looking for in- formation upon which to base a ratd—in fact, he did raid the place a few weoks @go—but they continued to go to the St. James Building day after day for the purpose of betting on the rise and fall stocks, Mrs. Strummell, who {s @ striking oc- toroon, is an expert In the conduct of brokerage offices for women. She ran the concern under the names of the “H. Montgomery Company” and “H. Mont- gomery & Co.” The three men arrested were her assistants. District-Attorney Jerome received a letter of complaint against the place early in December. He sent the com- plaint to the Tenderloin station, and from there it, found Its way to the Detective Bureau. McConville, who knows all about women's pool-rooms and the Ike, was assigned to the job of getting evidence, Not on Stock Exchange. He was assured by Mrs. Strummell that she was running a straight stock brokerage business and that her deals Were carried out on the Stock Exchange by Herman Goldsmith, a broker at No. 60 Broadway. McConville found that | Goldsmith is not a member of the Stock Exchange and Goldsmith denied that he @id any business for Mrs, Strummell's concern, ‘Then McConville began to visit the place frequently. He found that no juotations were received by telegri and that the telephone was seldom used. Late in December he oks. He found that be- ani shares of various stocks were dealt in every da cording to the entries, but that the month only two’ bona fide pur. @ hed been made—one of 100 of Erie and one of twenty shares Southern Pacific common. Armed with this information he raid- ed the place. Mrs, Strummell could not be found, and no arrests were made. McConville ordered the men to close up. They did close for a time, but ened again under another name, In the mean time the women customers hhad been subpoenaed and a case was built up by the District Attorney.

His dear friend, N. Gabrielle Yturri, who has seventeen years of the Comte’s ‘friendship, 1s fatigued. The two barbers are fatigued, trying to massage away the fatigue of the Comte, Alphonse, the valet de chambre, is fatigued. And all because of a subtle mystery that melted fts way into the delicate Frenchman's suit at the Holland House in the way of a box of flowers as big as a coffin. On the top of the flowers was a lady's glove, deliciously scented. That was all. The box was brought to the Comte by a vulgar messenger boy just as he and his dear frond were sipping chocolate with studied grace of gesture. Montesquion leaped to his fet, ciasped his hand to his heart, while a pink flush slowly mounted ‘to his polished brow. LILIES AND LANGUORS FOR THE COUNT. ‘Then with trembling fingers he and his dear friend slowly untied the ritbons that bound the box, and when the cover was removed there was e bank of gor- geous roses, iiltos of the valley, mignunette, pansies, orchitis and in the midst of {t all a pale yellow kid glove. ‘The Comte picked the glove up between his thumb and little finger and drew in @ long breath that elmost disturbed the serenity of his vest and oaused Alphonse, the valet, to go pale with apprehension. M. Gabrielle picked up one of the roses with the same elegant grace and began in his soft voice the rdpturous lines of a Jittle poem, one of his dear friend's master- pieces. he Comte suddenly dropped the glove and shuddered, exclaiming: “Ah! Gabrielle, we have forgotten our lavender gloves! We had almost be- come coarse in our common enthusiasm." Alphonse slid out of the room like a vanishing wraith and In @ second reappeared with a trunk tray fuil of lavender gloves. As they drew on the dainty gauntlets, feasting their eyes the while on the mysterious feminine symbol, the Comte became ep!grammatic: CERTAINLY IT MEANS A ROMANCE. "Gabrielle," he sighed, mechanically touching his hair to see if {ts smooth surface had been ruffled, “we had almost allowed our vulgar emotions to make us prosalo and commonplace. We had all but forgotten the subtje and beautiful suggestions of love and mystery conveyed by ‘these glorious garlands and this"—here he stooped and picked up the little yellow glove between second and third finger and brought it slowly to his red lips, then passing it to M. Gabrielle, who repeated the varers—tnis, ah! words cannot exprees all the tender mean- ings !t contains! It means a romance, Gabrielle.” M. Yturri looked reproachfully at his dear friend, but he continued: “Had we not allowed ourselves to think that the American women were not educated up to our beautiful sentiments? Had we not'—the blood began to mount to the Frenchman's forehead, and he signalled to Alphonse, who got out of the room by a graceful handspring and returned with a pale blue Venetian glass atomizer and began spraying his master's face. M. Yturrl was standing with his sloved ‘hands clasped at his waist and his eyes at rapturous elevation, but when he saw the dear friend's plight he grasped a bunch of roses from the box and waved them up and down before his face, at the same time pressing him back in a chalr, saying: “Oh, Robert, you are fatiguing yourself, Your nose is actually getting red!" “MON DIEU! NOT THAT!” “Ah, non! Ah, non! Not that!" shuddered the Comte. “It may be the con- sors and the steam heat. My sables and the windows.” The two barbers seized two of the alx great fur overcoats that were spread out in studied arrangement on the couch and wrapped their master up to the ears. Then they threw open the windows, and with two blve silk fans kept the keen alr rippling on ‘se brow in gentle waves. 3 M. Yturr!, who has a dehoate throat, tried a dozen purple mufflers before he found one that matched with his lavender gloves. Then he went to the box of roses and, seizing a handful, playfully tossed the at the Comte. A gleam of ani- mation lit the face shrouded in eables and he sald im a soft yotce: ISN’T GABE JUST TOO DEAR! “How original of you, Gabrielle, The soft perfume of these flowers inds ma of my rose bower, whcro we have passed so many delicious hours, Fire beginning to get hungry. Thin mysterious gtft also makes me feel hungry, Let Alphonse bring us eome devilled kidneys. We are two devils, are wo not, Gabri- elle?

I will try to unlock some hidden secrets and unfold forgotten beauties, asking only for the keen pleasure I shall denive in so doing. SOMETHING FRESH TO SAY. “I now hat lecturers have gone before me and that their name is legion, but I think that T have something fresh to say, something that will be heartily wel- comed, if I know anything at all about the people of the New World. My themes will be attractive and original. Among other things, I shall have much to say about Versailles, which has been for many long years « favorite subject of mine. It ls one which Ja full of living interest and pregnant with beautiful thoughts. Historically and artistically, tt has not {ts equal, in my opinion, To me Versailles is @ dreamland of delight. I want to lead my hearers there afrash and make them see new beauties in that storehouse of grace, of loveliness and of things of sweet and melancholy interest. “Then I wish to talk of gems, of Jewels, and of ail the precious productions of the lapitary’s art, which I have studied with the view of finding the secret of dhe diamond's flash and the emerald’s glow, as others study the virgin beauty of the Illy or the rapturous glow of the blood-red rose, There is @ hidden mystery in the Nght and color which the Creator has put into these things, and the quest of {t Is one of the most fascinating in the world.

Then again, 1 want to talk of Japan and of tnings Japanese in general.

Toward the close of the interview M, Gabrielle stroked the Comte’s bexd, whispering softly: ‘Don't fatigue yourself, Robert. Remember, we drive out this afternoon.” The Comte glanced gratefully at his friend, then rising slowly he tripped to the door with his visitor and with « caressing handshake bid him “Au revoir,” When the carriage for the Comte stopped at the Holland House the valet carried down a bundle of animal skin rugs and the two barbers each a bag filled with hot eau de cologne. Each bag had a silken cover embroidered with nymphs and dryads, M. Gabrielle explained the embroidery: “Ah! but Comte Robert fs of tho beautiful and poetic soul. These figures are what you Americans oall the warm babies, It ts by the suggestion that he forgets the cold and frost and thinks of glowing sunshine, green flelds and soft-scented bowers.

He stopped at the door to allow one of the barbers to give @ final curve to his mustache. ISING HAPPENINGS IN THE THIRD DAY OF THE SOJOURN OF THE COMTE MONTESQUIOU.
