Eee *s POOL-ROOMS ma AND GETTING HEAVY FAVORITE WINS “ Only the Fifty Which Were Served by. the Jere Mahoney Information Bu- reau, Raided by the Police on Tues- day, Have Ceased to Do Business. The Scratches, Overweights, Names of Jockeys, Odds and ‘‘Flashes” Come in from Morris Park and the Western Tracks Just as Heretofore. About fifty pool-rooms in this city were closed this afternoon, but) uot directly on account of the Western Union withdrawal order. These are the rooms that were served by the Jere Mahoney information bureau in East Forty-second street, which was raided Tuesday evening. They will remain closed until Mr. Mahoney has éither established a new bureau or reopened the old one. All the other pool-rooms in town were open as usual. The scratches, overweights, names of jockeys, odds and “flashes” came in from Morris Park and the Western tracks as usual. Bettors lost, as usual, and pro- prietors paid off to winners, and for all the effect the Western Union order had on the pool-rooms it might as well have not been issued. A man who knows as much about the pool-rooin situation in New York @s anybody in town was seen by an Evening World reporter to-day, and he throws a new light on the “moral” influence that forced the Western Unton to discontinue its racing bureau. He says that it was not morality at all, but a plain business proposition, because the Western Union was money on Sts race track service. “In the first place,” said this man, “don't you ever believe people who well you that there are only about 150 pool-rooms in New York. There are npre than 500 pool-rooms in town. The enterprise employs some 6.000 nen, and every one of these men is a voter. They generally vote the way their materiel interest lies, too, and that {s a point that must be kept in mind; nor should it be overlooked that each of these men can swing at least one vote. . . MANY INFORMATION BUREAUS. “Previous to the arrival of President Clowry and his bunch of bronco- busters from the West to take charge of the New York office the pool-rooms were served from twelve information bureaus. All of these are located in Manhattan, and when Col. Clowry arrived all were receiving their informa- tion from the Western Union direct and distributing it to, their customers, Each information ‘bureau served from twenty to seventy-five rooms. They were districted by agreement and practyally formed a close corporation. “Col. Clowry was sent here to boost business, and he saw a chance In the pool-room game. He figured that the Western Union had a monopoly, and that the pool-rooms would have to pay whatever he had a mind to soak them. So he {issued an order that every information bureau and every room should pay $25 a day extra for returns from each track used. As most of ‘oat (Continued on Second Page.) SEARCH GOING ON FOR MISSING MRS. JONES Report that She Had Been Found in a Sani- tarium Denied by Robert L. Cutting, Who Said that It Was a Servant’s Story. ~ It was stated at the mansion of Herman Leroy Jones, at No. 6 East Twelfth street, a few minutes after 3 o'clock this afternoon, that Mrs, Jones, who vanished from the Morris Park race track on Monday, has been found and taken to a sanitarium. Robert Livingston Cutting, counsel for the Jones family, denied this re- port. He said that its cirenlation was probably due to the fact that a servant who nad been sent out to summon a physician for the Jones child, ‘who was ill, had thought Mrs. Jones had been found by the physician, as he had formerly treated her when she was in the sanitarium. When Dr. Miller, who was seut for by the servant, was seen by an Evening World reporter, he declared that he had heard nothing about the finding of Mrs Jones. eee et ee oe Se oe | A 14-Word i Houses, Rooms or Apartments Advt.

The east wind wafted it far into the grand stand, making the front seats untenable and driving the occupants to the reg of the structure. The mist was so heavy that the starts {n many of the races could not be seen at all. The attendance was fairly goed, never- theless, for the card was attractive and promised a fair order of sport. The Pocantico, which was the stake feature, was not particularly attractive for the reason that it looked an easy | thing for Dolly Spanker.
