The Bee's exposure on last Monday of the method In which the police department of the city was winking at the disgraceful orglra which are nightly going on In the whip rooms of the city , and which would find their fit environment In the bawdyhouses In the burnt district was substantiated Tues day night In a measure. Full proof could liave been published yesterday If warning had not In some way been given to the keepers of the places of what was coming , Late Tuesday afternoon iMayor Moores , acting In his capacity ns chief executive of the city , sent the following order to Acting Chief of Police Haze : Hunry P. Haze. Acting Chief of Police , City uenr Sir : Numerous complnltUH con tinue to come to me of the existence of wlno rooms In the city nnd of the strnndnl- lous orgies which tnke place In them nightly. Soon nftcr the preent Hoard of Hro and Police CommlFSloiioi-H came Into olflee they directed the chief of police to close all wlno rooms In tbe cJty and to sea to It that they were not reopened. This older of the board hns been'Ignored by the chltf of polleo and thu most disgusting debauchery has contlmie.1 unmolested. Thu Older to suppress the wine room evil Is supported by every law-abiding and decent citizen of the community , and It must be enforced. You will , therefore , hnve every wine room In the city visited frequently by thu police- , and you will arrest all men and women found consorting In buch places. Uespectfully , KHAN1C K. MOOIIKS , Mayor. In accordance with thene orde-rs Sergeants Mitchell and Chamberlain were Tuesday nlghl detailed to raid all the wine room , ? In the vicinity between the bounds ot Cumlng am ! Leavenworth ami Ninth and Slxteeittl : streets. The result ot this raid was the ar rest ot only five women and no men. THE RAID TIPPED OFF. This result Is laughed at by the saloon keepers and the men who know what I ; going on about the city at night. It Is con- sldorsd highly ridiculous that In the district named the police were able to find but fivi women In the wlnerooms. The mystery 1. explained , however , when It Is stated thai a couple ot saloon keepers yeatfrdcj boasted to some of their customers that thej had been given a tip of what was coming That was the reaso.i that the sergeant ; found no women In their places. Sergeant M'tchull ' was detailed to vlsll all the wine room * In the territory between Cumlng and Douglas , and Ninth and Six teenth streets. This district Includes thi burnt district , almost every saloon of whlcl Is fitted up with wine roonio , which are fre quentcd nightly by the disorderly women o the district with escorls. Yet In all t bi section Sargeant Mitchell was able to IIm but two women. His report to Acting Chle of Police Haze It ? as follows : "In compliance with your request Officers Hcltfeldt , McOrath and nijself went througl all the -wine rooms In the saloons north o : Douglas street to Cumlng street and frou Ninth to Sixteenth streets. The wine room : were all In good shape , that Is , there wa ! nobody In them except Ike Quill's. Then wo found Emma Duncan , an oldtlme prostl tute. We arrested her and eent her to thi station. There were also two more couplci lit another wine room that wo did not know so we passed them by. There Is a gardei In tha rear of Mike Mullen's across tin street , where- there are a good many womei of questionable character , but we did no molerst them on account of being In tbe gar den and not In the wine rooms. We fount another in John Wright's , LIzzlo Malfane colored , a prostitute , also arrested. Otlier wloe the wine rooms were quiet and nobod ; was In them. " Ike Gulll's enloon Is located at Slxtcohtl and Davenport streets. Mike Mullen's plac < Is situated on the other corner. Wright's saloon Is near Twelfth and Dodge streets. FINDS THREE WOMEN. Sergeant Chamberlain was ordered to taki In all the wine rooms In the district betweei Douglas mid Leuvcuworth , and Ninth am Sixteenth streets. He has not yet Bent hi : report to Acting Chief of Police Haze bu ho found and arrested three women. Two o : these , Bertha Golden and Fay Revere , wen discovered In the wine rooms at Billy .Hus ton's place at Twelfth and Farnam streets The other was taken out of a wine room h a saloon known as Odin's hall on lower Far nam street. Speaking regarding the punishment of tin baloonkcepers In wlicse places the womei were found , a party remarked to Acting Chle ot Police Haze that the saloon me-n inducct women to frequent the wine rooms by prom Ising that they would not be molested b ; the police. In answer to this Acting Chle Haze said : "There was considerable truth In that It the past. In the future during the tw < weeks that I am acting chiefof , police , I In tend to follow out to tho" letter these In structions of the mayov. " Acting Chief ot Police Haze also statei that he proposed to bring the facts brough out by Tuesday night's raid to the attentloi of the city prosecutor and ask him to prose cute the saloon keepers In whose places tin women were found. Yesterday the women arrested were or ralgned before Police Judge Gordon. Berth : Golden pleaded guilty to the charge of bciiif a disorderly woman and WES fined $10 am costs.

They want the street narrdwcd to forty feet In order to reduce the cost of paving. Whether their petition will bo granted or not Is doubt ful , as comr members of the council are opposed to changing the width ot a portion of a street The effect would bo to make a narrow street for three or four blocks whllo on each side the street would remain at the previous width. It Is asserted that this would save the property owners a small proportion of the expense at the sacrifice of the appearance of the street. nieetrleliiii'x Monthly He-tort.

Padolsky and L. Padolsky were ar rested at the Instance of License Inspector McVlttlo on the charge of peddling without a license. They have but one license for running a push cart. The license inspector stated that Tuesday ho found that each had a cart on the streets and on each cart appeared the license number " 10 , " an ap- paicnt Indication that they wcro running two carta under one number. Yesterday , however , the Padolskys produced a wagon license. They alleged that they wcro not running the wagon , had transferred Its li cence to one ot the push carls and had failed to tear the number off one of the carts. They maintained that they run the carts under the same license alternately , but never at tlio same time On this showing the court discharged the1 two. License Inspector McVlttle Is having con siderable trouble over the fact that peddlers , have fallen line the custom of running two or more wagons and carts under one li cense.

The county has practically completed the continuation of the bicycle path from the city limits to Florence and wheelmen now have a continuous path from the end of the pavement at Fort street to Florence. It Is exceptionally hard and smooth for a new path and promises to approximate perfection after It has been settled by one or two good rains and lo rolled again. Hundreds of wheelmen traversed the smooth surface In the bright moonlight Tuesday and hoped that with this as a beginning similar Im provements would be constructed In other suburban thoroughfares. The expense ot con struction was comparatively slight. Com missioner Klerstead superintended the county's share of the work In person. The cntlro cost of the path from the city limits to Florence was only $140. Cook's Imperial Champagne , extra dry. Cook's Imperial Champagne , extra dry. Cook's Imperial Champagne , extra dry.
