THE way of closing the pool-rooms by cutting off the exchanges which distribute racing information, Next to indicting the directors and other high officials of the Western Union and the New York Telephone Company the course Mr. Jerome is now pursuing ‘ill bring the most results. Betting on horse races will never be stopped by putting little hand- book men in a cell. The ostenta- tious raids in-which. furniture was smashed with axes and doors broken open with crowbars stopped pool-room horse betting about as little as the shooting off of firecrackers or the beating of tom toms. Interfering with the little men, the underlings and hirelings, never breaks up any system of organized and profitable crime. So long as the big men are un- molested, so long as men of wealth, Influence and pull find it harmless and profitable, betting on the horse races will continue. It was quite a step in advance when Mr. Jerome abandoned his tragical raids and disbanded the crowbar and axe brigade. The seizure of the books in the Fulton street office building, with their interesting records about “Sen G. Azelina” and the rest, the seizure of the switchboards and private lines into Broadway office buildings, and the closing of the dis- tribution headquarters at Ossining, actually prevent betting because Information as to the entries and.the odds and the starters and the results is essential for horse race betting to be conducted. It is comical that after every one of these seizures the officials of the telegraph and the telephone companies come forward with protesta- tions of their ignorant innocence. Some time ago the Western Union directors passed formal resolutions that their company would no longer transmit racing information for betting purposes. The telephone com pany proclaimed that no pool-rooms or racing bureaus coukl obtain ils instruments or service. Yet at every one of these headquarters there were switchboards, trunk Tines, private wires and telephones all using the Western Union and the New York Teleghone for gambling purposes. Is it possible that the officials of these big corporations were wholly {gnorant of the uses of the instruments {hey installed and for which they received many thousands of dollars in compensntion? If they were ignorant why did they charge an ¢xtra rate? ("Why were special contracts made? Of course the thing to do is to Indict these big corporations for being accessories in the commission of a crme. That would really put a stop to racing bureaus and pool-rooms, which otherwise will be re- opened as soon as new headquarters can be established. Stealing is a much worse crime than betting on a horse race. One of the great evils of pool-rooms is that they lead their frequenters to theft. It is quite as important to break up organized theft as to-close up WW), — And the way to put a stop to thieving is not by arresting the little thieves from time to time and sending to Sing Sing, Blackwell's Island o Elmira the underlings who have no money or friends.» Just as the cc viction of one Western Union director would do more to close the pool rooms than a thousand crowbar raids, so the conviction of one multi millionaire, one high financier, one_president of a big corporation wouk do more to make stealing unpopular and unprofitable than the ordinar chain gangs which every few days take their way from the Tombs ~~ Letters from the People. finy Fines Are In ot of The Evening World upot laws which inflict mere accord 1s as anot. or it 1s done y.
